Summary
Don’t panic.
Don’t beg.
Don’t give them anything to use against you.It’s been Dean’s mantra for the past five years, and somehow, against all odds, he’s managed to survive. Survived being betrayed. Survived being sold. Survived being beaten and used and thrown out like yesterday’s trash — and, miraculously, he’s managed to do it all with his spirit still intact.
But now he has a new owner. One who is powerful yet principled, careful where others were careless. A man who should be like all the rest and somehow isn’t.
Dean doesn’t know what’s more dangerous: a system he understands, or a man who refuses to follow it — but when Castiel looks at him like he might actually be worth something, Dean's not sure the answer matters anymore.
A story about survival, second chances, and what it means to be seen.

Summary
Reaper Castiel has one simple job: to usher the souls of deceased humans through the Veil and into the afterlife. For countless eons, he has performed this job without thought or question. But that changes when he is called upon to reap the soul of Dean Winchester.
Because Dean Winchester is the one soul that Castiel cannot seem to reap.
An invisible thread links Dean and Castiel together, through tragedy and loss, through doubt and rebellion, through Heaven and Hell alike. And eventually, Dean and Castiel will gather the strength they need to defy not only the enemies surrounding them, but also Death itself.

Summary
When Dean was a teenager, he met Castiel Novak on a family vacation. The pair formed a fast friendship, which came to an abrupt end when Castiel confessed romantic feelings and Dean told him he didn’t feel the same way. It was an act seeped in regret, with Dean realizing he had in fact fallen for the other boy once he had come to terms with his bisexuality. Fourteen years later, a thirty-year-old Dean may have another chance when he runs into Castiel on his train ride home.
