    Summary

    You are not a saint. You are not a hero. You’re barely even a living person, because living people have lives that extended beyond work and their apartment. But you’re not quite nobody, either. You’re too much, and not enough, and just in the shadows with a prayer to be saved that isn't genuine and secrets that mean nothing.

    They should’ve meant nothing.

    Yet here you are. In more danger than usual, being threatened by Hydra without knowing why, and being assigned a security detail you don’t want by Captain America.

    Bucky Barnes is good at his job. You’re not going to die.

    But you might end up strangling him before Hydra gets to either of you.

    Summary

    Mob boss!Steve/Bucky/OC AU

    Pity the fool that dares to steal from the king of the underworld. She really should've kept her sticky fingers to herself. Set against backdrop of a war between Steve's syndicate and Hydra, one mistake sets in motion a chain of events that introduces her to a world of terror & obsession (and worst of all, the truth of who she is).

    Excerpt:
    "Why must you run, sweetheart? You know it's all too easy to hunt you down."

    She gazed at him, this dangerous man who would go to the ends of the earth for her. "I can't be with you, Steve. What you're doing— it's wrong."

    His fingers tangled in her hair. "Right or wrong, why does it matter? You are mine by birthright."

    Summary

    In 1942, Dr. Erskine launched Project Rebirth and created Captain America. That same year, Bucky Barnes fell into the hands of Hydra, their experiments leaving scars that wouldn't surface for years.

    But the story doesn't start there.

    In 1937, Erskine's first miracle wasn't a soldier-it was his daughter.

    ___

     

    Celia and Bucky should have died on that train, lost to the snow and silence. Instead, Hydra remade them into weapons.

    Steve should have gone down with the Valkyrie, a soldier’s sacrifice buried beneath the Atlantic. Instead, the world woke him as a hero.

    Now the three of them are bound by the pull of something greater.
    Caught in each other’s orbit, colliding again and again, in defiance of time itself.
