Summary: For as long Castiel could remember, he had always known of how he was promised to the crown prince. He was never to go farther than the castle’s kitchen, in case some alpha saw him and got handsy, and from the hours of eight in the morning to noon he was to attend schooling with one of King John’s beta sons. If that wasn’t bad enough, he grew up only hearing rumors of the rumor of how he came to be promised to the crown prince, because, his mother—the one person who could tell him exactly why and how his fate had been sealed!—wouldn’t even approach the topic. Castiel couldn’t even guess why he’d been promised to the prince, either. He wasn’t royalty. He was just a kitchen servant’s son. It was highly unusual and even seen as wrong that he was to be mated by the prince who would someday be King. Castiel hated it. He hated having his entire future already being set in stone because if anything was certain, it was that he would not grow old. If King John was anything to go by, his son would be even worse than him. King John had had several wives and each one had been neglected and left to wither and perish alone. The crown prince was his father’s son, so Castiel knew he was doomed to the same fate as King John’s wives. On the eve of his first heat, his plans to hide away until it was over are thwarted when guards come to collect him. And when he comes face-to-face with the young King Dean Winchester, the strangest thing happens: he is left unmated. In the morning, he learns that things have changed. The kingdom Castiel knew is gone, and in place of it, is a new one. Under the same name as the last, but everything is different. The kingdom thrives under King Dean’s reign, and omegas have just as many rights as alphas and betas. They even are allowed to refuse one who wishes to court them if they don’t want to mate. Which means that Castiel can refuse the King’s courting proposal. However… Castiel doesn’t outright refuse Dean’s courtship, because, well, Dean is different. Dean is soft and kind, he’s caring and thoughtful. He doesn’t posture and intimidate like other alphas, and best of all, he doesn’t believe omegas are lesser than alphas or betas. Dean is like the alpha Castiel pictured himself mating in his dreams. Still, as Dean begins to court him, Castiel remains vigilant. The ever present fear that Dean was just playing some game of cat and mouse with him always keeping him on edge. But months go by of Dean being nothing but a gentleman to Castiel, and every omega he ever comes in contact with, even! And then a year comes and goes. And then Castiel turns eighteen. The age which Dean set as the minimum age a person could be mated, and Castiel expects Dean to demand he make a decision. But after he talks with a friend and is told Dean hasn’t been courting him because he was not of age, Castiel and his omega fall out of synch. That night, Castiel thinks about his time with Dean and the people he’s come to call friends. That’s when he has an epiphany about Dean, and his feelings for the alpha. That night is the turning point for Castiel, when he realizes just how far he’s fallen for Dean. And just how much he is okay with that.

And the only reason he passes through this town is to attend his brother Gabriel’s wedding. He hasn’t seen his family in years, Gabriel being the only one he occasionally called and talked to.

Castiel always knew he was Unlucky Number Seven. He wasn’t special—he was only ordinary and his father made sure to remind him every chance he got. If there was anything that could be considered special about him, it was his family—his six siblings to be exact. They were spectacular and possessed powers Castiel could only dream of. They were everything he wasn’t, and at every step of the way he was reminded that he was just… Unlucky Number Seven.

And to make matters even worse, Castiel doesn’t feel things like other people—the medication his father made sure he would always take helped him feel…appropriately. But then he meets Dean Winchester. An alpha and and the only person to ever say, ‘In case no one has told you, Cas, you’re special, too,’. Dean changes everything and makes Castiel feel things he never had before, and Castiel finds himself feeling for Dean in the same way they met: by falling.

When John married Naomi Novak, Dean was sure his life was over. No TV during the week. No more sugar in the house (and if Dean whimpered as Naomi dumped their sodas down the kitchen sink, citing some shit about tooth enamel and sugar rotting brains, no one had to know). No more weekend hunting (apparently it promoted violence in the home). No more Zeppelin. The reason John had to drive a minivan was to fit the new big happy blended family, which came with one dorky, stick-up-his-ass, never-smiled-in-his-pathetic-life, step brother, Castiel. The kid was beyond lame. He wore a tie everywhere. He talked like the only books he was allowed to read were the bible and the dictionary. And he hated Dean.

In the words of Naomi Novak, presenting is the lowest form of begging, the most vulnerable position one could ever be in. Every day of her life she thanked the Gods for only giving her Alpha children — and children who would surely turn out to be Alphas, like little Castiel.

Or so she thought.

In an unprecedented act of rebellion, Omega Castiel finds an outlet for his repressed sexual instincts: a Gloryhole in a dive bar on the outskirts of town. There he meets Dean, a mysterious Alpha with a sinful mouth and a huge knot who talks a big game about breeding him up while also caring for him like no one else ever did before.

It doesn’t help that the wolf is rogue and murdering at least one townsperson a night, or that his father’s frustration with this worsening situation grows by the day.

After a Halloween party ends for him in disaster, a cold walk back across town alone is the perfect opportunity to beat himself up. When the weird religious kid from school, James Novak, comes along for the walk, it might not be as bad a walk as Dean thinks. Or worse. It could be way worse.

He wants to set out immediately and bring Castiel home, but traveling to the past just may be the key to two angels’ salvation. One quick trip via time bending spell later and Dean finds himself in the heart of early eighties New York City matching wills and something else with a mysterious and beautiful young woman. They’ll have to work together to defeat the demon or risk losing the one person they love more than anyone else.

Vast and Never Ending

It should be a simple thing to do, but when obstacles demonic, angelic, and human alike threaten the perfect day he has planned, he’ll have to think quick on his feet to pull everything off.

Summary: Years after Cas’ death, Dean is a retired hunter who’s now mostly known for his bitchin’ pies, quick mechanical work and the patchwork of tattoos that litter his body that tell a mournful story of a life lost to powers greater than him. Having spent his time since losing Cas and defeating Chuck learning to live again, Dean’s perfectly carved out little slice of life is thrown for a loop when the supposedly dead angel and the would-be God show up at his doorstep on the fifth anniversary of Cas’ death, both very much alive. Jack; just a child. Cas; just a man.

Summary:

“Listen, buddy. You can’t stay.”

Five little words that had sent Castiel’s whole world crumbling down around him. What would he do? Where would he go? How would he survive now that he was human?

That had been nearly 2 years ago.

He did what he needed to get by. Had a roof over his head, just about. Minimal food in his belly, enough to keep him alive at least. And money in his pocket. Dirty, filthy money he earned by offering himself up to people that did unspeakable, sinful things to him. Once an angel of the lord, now left to lurking on street corners, hoping someone would give him the time of day just so he could stay alive.

Whispers of disappearances had been rife through 5th street. But when familiar faces start vanishing, Castiel isn’t sure if people were leaving out of fear or something worse. Just when everything seemed its bleakest there was a tiny glimmer of hope, pinging brightly off chrome alloys and glossy black paintwork. The rumbling beast cruising through his neighbourhood, by his corner. He never thought he’d see that car again. The Winchester brothers brought to the city on a new case. A new case that sat a little too close to home.

Summary: Castiel is running a sustainable farm on Winchester land. When Dean returns home after a long absence, he is bewildered at the gentle way the newcomer cuddles with his cows when they should just be livestock. However, when a new calf needs help being born during a bad storm and Dean is the only one around to help, Cas starts seeing him in a new light.
