Description
Autumn never expected much from life. Quiet, reserved, and always on the outskirts, she was used to being overlooked. But when a college tech conference brings her to Avengers Tower, everything changes. A sudden attack traps her inside, forcing her into the orbit of Tony Stark and the Avengers. As Autumn navigates her unexpected internship under Stark Industries, she finds herself drawn into a world far bigger than she ever imagined. Between late-night coffee-fueled work sessions, reluctant friendships, and moments of vulnerability with heroes who are more human than she thought, she slowly begins to carve out a place for herself. But old habits die hard, and Autumn isn't sure she belongs in their world, or any world at all. Can she learn to trust the people around her? Or will she let the walls she's built keep her from the family she never knew she needed? A story of quiet strength, found family, and the journey to belonging, because sometimes, even the most unexpected pieces fall into place. Disclaimer: I do not own the MCU. I only own Autumn and her story line.
