❝there lies an odd sort of beauty in the rich red of blood.❞

Natalya Romanova is a killer-in-training.

At seventeen years old, she works hard to become a Black Widow Agent with the Red Room Academy in Moscow, Russia. She's been there since the age of seven.

She's become one of the best operatives in the Academy, but something's still holding her back.
Hesitation. Guilt.

Desire.

Some flaws can be erased with the flip of a switch, but others are not so easily removed. And when conversations about the future bring dark realizations to her attention, Natalya isn't so sure of what she wants anymore. She's made much progress, but the Black Widow still has a long way to go.

Marvel own all the characters except the ones I created, so technically all rights go to them, but still. Don't plagiarize. It's not cool.
