A Reckless Soul | Captain America ✓ by whisperingofpages

"Come at me like a real man, or does your religion not allow you to spill blood?" She laughed and further lowered her lips to his ear, whispering, "You're weak and pathetic Captain." *** She was rather irritating, but had a disposition for sarcasm and wit. Fuelled by rage and past pain, one has to cover the obviousness with a bit of humour. Audrey Cecilia Embers, was a broken Christian mystery wrapped in misery. Stealing paintings was her signature style of a message to her competitors, or was it a hobby? Whatever she made it into, the objective is what will be her downfall, getting herself in a bigger mess and ending up in one of SHIELD's jails. The sweet smell of betrayal will be the outcome of this disaster, and she knows who played her. But before she can get some justice, her life spirals into a crazier direction when one family member comes back to haunt her to her grave. Amongst the mess, the assassin is faced with a difficult decision, and not only that, but she meets Captain America himself. He was a soldier in a general sense. He was regal, tall, strong-even handsome. And a gentleman. He followed the law where she broke it. He dotted his I's and crossed his T's where she wouldn't have cared. But when Audrey meets the golden boy, she doesn't like him. He's too gentle, too much about saving people, and very...patriotic. It will have to be up to her whether she can untangle the mess she got herself into or not. | completed book Cover: my own

I do this for fun, anonymous entertainment, and under an incognito identity (of course). Please ignore the mistakes after the countless proofreading as this is my very first, um, story?~~

42 parts Complete

It's been two years since Bucky Barnes showed up half dead on Willow Dariela's porch. They've grown close, and Barnes has joined the Avengers. All traces of HYDRA's programming have been wiped from his mind, and he is Bucky Barnes again. But When Loki returns to earth, everything is thrown into disarray, and to make matters worse, rumors that Captain America is HYDRA have been going through the papers. There may be a traitor on the inside of the team, and it threatens to rip them apart. Will the team be able to repair the damage and keep the earth safe from the rage of Thanos? Or will the enemy be able to tear them apart? (This is the sequel to my first Bucky Barnes book, "Broken". I recommend you read it before starting this story.)
