Chapter1

Tony's POV

Here I am at yet another charity ball that's just about throwing money at problems that need action I'm so bored I would rather be playing video games with Clint or doing science stuff with Bruce or even listening to Steve talk about the war. I was thinking about trying to talk pepper into making me work but then I saw a dark skinned beauty stroll in. She was curvy and short with long black hair and gray eyes. I was about to start flirting with her until I saw Justin Hammer grab her hand. "Thank you all for coming to this ball to raise money and awareness for the inner city youth camp program. I am your hostess Maya Jones and our biggest donation of the night has already been made by my handsome boyfriend Justin Hammer." she said as Justin kissed her cheek. I pulled out my checkbook and wrote a check for twice what Hammer gave and took my check over to the donation center. About five minutes later Maya was back at the podium and she said" Wow the new highest donation was just submitted by Tony Stark. Thank for your generosity Mr. Stark." I walk up to her as she leaves the podium and ask" May I have a dance with the lovely hostess?" "Okay."she says as I lead her to the dance floor. Once we begin to dance I see Hammer pounding down a bourbon as he watches so just to tick him off I dip her and then spin her after the dance is over she goes to the bar where Hammer is sitting and he throws her a heated look. Later on the ride home Pepper launches into me about how I acted "Tony did you have to top Justin Hammers donation and then for you to dance with his girlfriend and spin her like a little ballerina was just too much Tony."she fussed until I went to the lab and locked her out.

Maya's POV

Justin and I are riding home my charity ball which was a success. A slow smile spreads across my face as I think of all the kids I will be able to help with the money we raised. All of a sudden I feel a hard slap across my right cheek and I look at Justin who yells"How could you let Stark spin you all over the dance floor like I wasn't even there?" "Justin honey it was just a dance you know I love you and no one else."I say trying to calm him down. " You know that no one else wants a little freak like you any way." Justin says grabbing my arm and dragging me out of the limo and into the house where he slapped me around and then he ripped my dress off and raped me on the living room floor. When I am finally allowed to move I go into the bathroom and shower. Once I'm out of the shower I notice my left eye is swollen and black so that means sunglasses all day long. I know that I should leave him but he takes care of me and without him I'd be homeless and he would stop giving me my injection and the world would know I am a fairy.

Tony's POV

I can't believe that the girl from last night is still on my mind. She is all I can think about so I left the tower to get fresh air. I'm at a coffee shop when I here the barista call her name I turn around and there is Maya wearing sunglasses and carrying shopping bags so I go over and help her so she can carry her coffee over to my table. We sit and talk for about an hour then 'Hammer Time belts' out of her phone when she answers she frowns and says"I'm having coffee with someone but I will get home quickly honey. I love you too." "Justin must be having a party tonite if you need to get home quickly."I said winking at her. "We are going to an art exhibit tonite. "she says as she writes the time and place on a napkin before leaving quickly. I go back to the tower and I find Steve and ask "Wanna go to an art exhibit with me cap?" "What's the catch Tony you don't even like art is this an attempt to make me blush cause there will be live nude models like last time?" Steve asks eyeing me suspiciously. "No nudes I like this girl and she will be there and I don't want Pepper to know that's why I'm going so if you go I can say you made me go. Please Steve I'm begging." I say with my kicked puppy look that he can't deny makes him a big softie."Fine but you owe me."Steve says.

Maya's POV

When I got back home Justin grabbed my arm and said"Bitch why are you hanging out with Stark are you gonna leave me for him. He won't want a worthless freak like you." " I just ran into him at the coffee shop I swear Justin you are the only man I want." I say grabbing his hand and not wondering how he knew about me being with Tony Stark because I know he's having me followed because he is worried about me cheating. Later that night at the art exhibit I am walking around networking for Hammer Industries like Justin coached me. I see Tony Stark walk in with none other than Captain America Steve Rogers I go over and introduce myself and then Justin comes over and grabs my arm leading me to an empty hall where he draws back to slap me I close my eyes to brace myself for the blow but it never comes I look up to see Tony pushing Justin away from me. After that everything goes black.

Tony's POV

I knew Hammer was an asshole but I can't believe he was about to hit Maya who braced herself like it's happened before. I'm so upset that I nearly punch him but Steve alerts me to the fact that Maya passed out so I pick her up bridal style and take her to the tower where Bruce can examine her because at a hospital Justin would have a chance to smooth talk her into coming back. When I lay her on the exam table I notice she is wearing a wig when I pull it off I see her midnight blue hair cascade down to her shoulders. Bruce ends up cutting her dress off after her X-rays revealed she had three broken ribs. Once he removed her dress I saw that her body was littered with bruises and a few scars .I washed her face and found that she had a black eye which she covered with make up.

Maya's POV

I wake up in a room that I've never seen before once I sit up I see Tony Stark sitting beside me asleep. I make a move to get out of bed and Tony wakes up and says" You're not going anywhere with three broken ribs and Dr. Banner drew some blood to make sure you are healthy so we know you're not exactly human.""I'm a fairy but if I don't get back to Justin the serum will wear off and I will grow wings and no one wants a winged freak around, plus Justin owns all my stuff.'"I say hanging my head. "You're not a freak you're special and I'd love to see you with wings are they the same color as your blue hair?"Tony replies with a smile as I touch my head and realize my wig is gone. "Yes they are but how will I find a job when I don't even own any clothes?" I ask " Easy you can work for me and I will have Pepper get you some clothes until your ribs heal. Here put these on so I can take you downstairs to meet everyone.

Tony's POV

How she makes Steve's oversized pajamas look sexy I have no clue. Once we get to the Avengers common floor everyone looks at Maya and they all flinch because of her black eye."Maya these are the Avengers. You've already meet Captain America Steve Rogers. That's Dr. Banner aka Hulk and the guy who patched you up last night. That guy over there is Thor God of thunder. That's Hawkeye aka Clint Barton. The lovely Black Widow aka Natasha Romanov and let's not forget Loki our God of Mischief and Bruce's boyfriend." I said pointing everyone out."Hi everyone. Thank you Dr. Banner for helping me last night."Maya said looking sheepish. Just then Pepper came in and yelled" Why are people saying you kidnapped Justin Hammer's girlfriend?" When we all turned around to face her while she was carrying bags of clothes. Pepper winced at Maya's blackeye dropped the bag and was about to give Maya a hug when Bruce yelled"She's got three broken ribs so no hugging." "I'm gonna kill Justin Hammer myself." Pepper yelled as she placed her hand on Maya's back. Natasha and Pepper took Maya and the clothes Pepper had bought her to her room to change. Later that day Justin Hammer came to the tower demanding to see Maya. We all met up with him in one of my conference rooms."Maya I'm sorry about last night I wasn't myself baby I love you." Hammer said with a pout. " Justin no need to put on an act Dr. Banner saw all my bruises and scars so they know last night wasn't the first time. They also know I'm a fairy and they accept it."Maya said as Pepper held her hand under the table." Maya you have nothing you really don't have a choice except to come home with me especially if you want to keep your wings from growing back."Hammer said pulling out a syringe. "I think I'm gonna have my wings grow back because Dr. Banner showed me that they are retractable so they can be hidden. You've lied to me for a long time Justin but no more I'm done with you even if I have to be homeless." Maya said as tears slid down her cheeks." Look Hammer stay far away from her or these guys will make sure you die a slow painful death." I said standing slowly. All of a sudden Maya tackles me as about 15 Hammer Droids fly thru the windows. I push Maya and Pepper under the table then I suit up as the other fight the Hammer Droids. It seems like each time we destory one group another group shows up . Maya suddenly stands up and screams at emp levels and that ends the attack as the droids fall down powerless and I haul Hammer from under the table to see him holding a controller. After we call the cops and clean ourselves up I find Maya sleeping. I leave her alone but we will talk when she wakes up.
