Selene was supposed to be a weapon.
Instead, she became an Avenger.
Months after escaping Hydra's ruins and earning her place among Earth's mightiest heroes, Selene-once known only as AURORA, Project Winter Wolf-finally begins to believe she can be more than what they built. She fights beside a team that's slowly becoming family. She heals under the careful guidance of Dr. Eveline Cross. And through it all, Bucky Barnes stays close-because he recognizes the haunted look in her eyes.
Then missions start going wrong.
Orders contradict instincts. Intel turns rotten. And every time Selene breaks formation to keep the team alive, Director Fury calls it failure. Insurbordination. Proof that the monster Hydra made is still inside her. When Selene takes a near-fatal hit meant for someone else, Fury seizes the moment to turn the Avengers against her-branding her unstable, dangerous, disposable.
But Bucky doesn't move.
As Selene fights for her life, the team digs into the evidence they ignored-and uncovers the impossible truth: Fury has been feeding Hydra from the inside. And Selene wasn't the problem... she was the plan.
Captured and exposed, Fury delivers one final cruelty from behind locked doors: Selene was never meant to be a hero. She was meant to be a failsafe. A scapegoat. The one blamed when Hydra came for Tony Stark's newest and most dangerous creation.
Now Selene must decide what she's willing to become to survive the betrayal-because the wolf inside her is done being hunted.
PROJECT WINTER WOLF: SCAPEGOAT PROTOCOL
Loyalty shatters. Truth burns. And the weapon they designed learns how to choose.
