Chapter 2 of @flawedamythyst ‘s charity hawktion now available! Will be updating Sundays hereafter.
Excerpt:
“Barnes,” he eventually says, voice soft.
“Barnes,” Clint repeats. “That first or last?”
“That’s all the handlers say..” He frowns. “I don’t think I’m supposed to hear that, but they do.”
“And the handlers are...?”
“Hydra.”
The word is like a sucker punch to the gut, knocking the wind out of Clint in a single blow. “Oh,” he manages, voice low. “That...okay. Hydra. Okay. Fuck. Fuck.”
“They told me to pick you up,” Barnes says. “They think you will make a good asset.”
Clint lets out a low laugh. “Do they? That’s cute.” He turns his wrists again, keeping his face neutral as he slowly works himself loose. “Well, I won’t. So if that’s the plan, you should just let me go.”
