' ' Perfect Enough To Break ' '
Once, they were weapons. Now, they're something far more dangerous. Trained by HYDRA. Sharpened into silence. Together, they were nearly unstoppable-until their paths split in blood and secrecy. Years later, he's with SHIELD, with the Avengers, fighting for the side he once destroyed. She's still in the shadows, loyal to the system that built her. When a mission forces their worlds to collide, old instincts kick in-and so do feelings neither of them should still carry. Enemies on paper. Something else entirely beneath the surface. But the past doesn't let go, and neither does HYDRA. And in the space between duty and desire, someone always bleeds.

Vengeance Protocol (Congressman Barnes x Red Room)
You were a Red Room Widow enhanced with a Soviet variant of the super soldier serum-a living weapon bred for infiltration and slaughter. When the Red Room fell, you clawed out of the wreckage, free but haunted. Still bearing the Slavic accent and razor-sharp presence the program carved into you, your beauty is disarming. Your fury is not. Valentina Allegra de Fontaine gave you a list of known Hydra agents, past and present. You called it vengeance. She called it convenient. You work through the names in blood and fire-bar fights, car bombs, burned-down safehouses, and precision kills. She didn't tell you who else was on the list: Bucky Barnes-the Winter Soldier. The ghost from every whispered Red Room file. Now you're in his sights-and he's in yours. Only one of you knows the truth. This story contains descriptions of murder, torture, SA, and other dark themes. This book is not romance-focused. This story was written using AI, but the ideas are mine.Complete

In Their Hands ✧･ BARNES ✔
Zola Barnes, daughter of Natasha Romanoff, and the adoptive daughter of Clint Barton is raised in the red room for the first few years of her life. She grew up to the feeling of the Winter Soldier's metal fist punishing her for every mistake she made. She was thirteen-year-old Natalia's liability in the red room, but she was Clint Barton's world once he took the two of them in instead of pursuing his mission to kill them. Their lives change as they work for SHIELD alongside Clint, run from their old captors with his help, and hide in hotels and safe houses. Though Zola can hardly speak English or understand what is happening to her, she builds relationships with her mother, whom she used to be denied of seeing. She gets closer to Clint, who she genuinely believed was her father. She didn't know any better. Thankfully, she was happy to lose the one relationship she never asked for. She'd longed for a father figure, but the relationships she had with everyone in the Red Room, especially the Winter soldier, were not that. As unfortunate as it was for Bucky, who wanted nothing more than to be a part of his daughter's life, he was forced to watch her grow up in someone else's care from a distance. They wiped him so often, he would hardly remember her, anyway. Still, in the small moments where he could remember, he hoped that one day he would win her trust back as Bucky, not the Winter Soldier that she knew. BOOK ONE IN ZOLA BARNES SERIES.Complete
