Adriana Ashford wasn't supposed to survive Hydra.
Faster, sharper, harder to break. She's proof of their experiments, even if she'll never be as strong as Captain America or as unyielding as the Winter Soldier. Fighting is the only thing she has left, so when she walks into Stark Tower asking for a chance, she doesn't expect acceptance. She only expects to bleed for it.
What she doesn't expect is Bucky Barnes. Assigned to train her, he's everything she doesn't want... cold, guarded, and just as broken as she is. Walls built from trauma never hold forever, and when the heat between them burns slow, sharp, and impossible to ignore, Adriana learns the truth:

Melatonin- Bucky X OC Love Story
A young woman leaving an abusive relationship finds herself roommates and friends with The Avengers. My story does NOT follow the MCU. Steve didn't leave after defeating Thanos. Tony, Nat, Vision are all alive. This story doesn't have your typical captured, kidnapped or anything drama. It's pretty drama free, just a cute love story 🥰 TW: Mentions of Self Harm Smut Violence/Blood Mentions of SA/R@peComplete
The Winter She Made
They were forged in war and fractured by the same hands that made them monsters. Katherine Zola was born with a name she never chose, the daughter of HYDRA's most notorious architect. A child genius, a living weapon, and the program's most effective ghost. Her mission logs were sealed in blood and buried in silence-until one day, she was given a name: Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes. She didn't know why HYDRA wanted him-not at first. Only that she was ordered to track, weaken, and retrieve him. That her mission began before his fall from the train in 1945. That she was the reason he ended up in enemy hands. And she did it. She followed orders. She delivered him. What she didn't expect was to care. What she didn't plan for was falling in love with the man she helped damn. Bucky Barnes thought he was just another casualty of HYDRA-another soldier stripped of self and turned into a weapon. But the truth was darker. His capture wasn't chance. It was chosen. He was targeted by a girl with smoke in her lungs, ghosts in her eyes, and a lie tucked in her smile. A girl who became everything to him, right before she disappeared. Decades later, they stand on opposite sides of the same war-both survivors of mind control, both drowning in guilt. And both still tethered to each other by a past neither can outrun. Because she was his mission long before he ever became hers. -Set during Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, Thunderbolts -long book, buckle up for the ride. #1 in thewintersoldier 9.24.25 #1 in original character 9.23.25 #1 in natasharomanoff 12.28.25 #1 in avengersfanfiction 1.6.26 #2 in jamesbarnes 9.24.25 #3 in samwilson 10.9.25 #3 in marvel 12.30.25 #6 in wintersoldier 9.24.25Complete
