***BOOK ONE OF THE ELENA MAXIMOFF SERIES *** After Elena Maximoff's world blew up in front of her and her siblings' faces, her siblings took it upon themselves to take care of their younger sister. However, after a questionable decision was made, she becomes a part of Hydra's illegal human experimentation project. Faced with new challenges, loss and a potential family, Elena Maximoff must explore herself and the world around her to remedy the childhood Hydra stole from the girl who had Grown Up Too Fast. A/N: I do not own the Marvel Cinematic Universe (no matter who much I wish I did). I only own my original character Elena Maximoff's / Serdtse's story.
