Which Binds You: Chains or Love?

Clint Barton became an Earl after his parents died. Natasha became a slave in the Barton household after hers died. Clint needs Natasha for something she had never even considered: marriage. With pressure from his advisors to marry and produce an heir for the Barton title, Clint needs someone who won't expect him to actually "be a husband" to them, leaving him free to pursue his partner of choice. Who better than Natasha, the slave his family brought on who hates everything he stands for?And Bucky just wants Master Barton to marry so they can be left in peace, so they can continue on as they have been away from anymore prying eyes. So the gorgeous, strong-willed redhead who seems to want nothing to do with anyone on the estate seems like a prime candidate. Added benefits like her feisty personality and pretty face don't hurt either.

My prompts for this were Slave au and Fake Dating. Well, my mind went only one place for this so it's more of a fake marriage or fake engagement story? I think it still works.It is set historically because that's where my mind goes for slaves and fake marriage situations. That being said, I ONLY KNOW THINGS FROM OTHER THINGS I HAVE READ! I love reading historical stuff, but historical romances are where I get 85-90% of my information and I did very little research on the details here cause I just wanted it to be short and character centered, so please forgive me for bad info! I know, I hate it too but I just... I'm sorry, okay? I did my best anyway!
