   Summary

   A/B/O universe. Alternate Universe from the end of Daredevil Born Again Season 2.

   Upon discovering that Benjamin Poindexter is actually an Omega who shares an unofficial bond with Matt Murdock, Fisk seeks to forcibly claim him, wanting to weaponize Bullseye once again as a tool to destroy Daredevil, the man who took his power from him. To thwart this, Karen Page recruits Bucky Barnes and the Thunderbolts to ally with the Defenders and prevent Dex from falling back into Kingpin's clutches.
