Summary
Four months after the Croatoan virus wiped out most of the world's population, Dean's sole objective is to meet his brother at their agreed-upon rendezvous point in Idaho. But when he encounters a mysterious, blue-eyed man in a barn, Dean's plans begin to change. The end of the world is no time for romance, yet there's something about Cas he can't resist. The problem is, Cas has a secret—and it just might prove more deadly than the Croats.

Summary
“Don’t come any closer."
The man stops his approach. “Or you’ll… throw a book at me?”
The stranger’s eyes follow the chain from Dean’s ankle to the wall and then centers back to him and the book. He can practically hear the guy thinking something like, ‘what good is a book gonna do you when you’re chained up like an animal?’
“Are you gonna kill me?” Dean hesitantly looks up. It’s a little disorienting to be met with the biggest kicked-puppy-eyes he’s ever seen before. He didn’t expect that sort of expression on the face of someone who was choking a guy to death a few minutes ago.
---
After getting kicked out from home, Dean lives on the streets selling himself to survive, only to get kidnapped and imprisoned. His savior comes in the form of a man murdering his kidnapper. Not wanting to go back to his lonely, homeless life, he seeks out this mysterious stranger to try and find somewhere he can belong.
Or: Dean is saved by Cas. Cas doesn't want anyone to find out he's a serial killer, so he tries his best to stay hidden. Dean follows him anyway.

Summary
Grift, Scam , Fraud, Theft, Hustle, Trick, Con, Bamboozle. All terms would describe how the Alpha/Omega Winchester brothers bring in money. But Dean’s least favorite adjective to describe how they make a living is has to be LIE. Although he does a bit of that to pressure his target into handing over large sums of money under false pretenses.
The brothers move to Kansas City to start what should be a fairly simple Honey Trap on a trust fund alpha with deep pockets.
Pretty quickly Dean finds the alpha is more to him than just a simple marc. He’s smart, caring, a little dorky and absolutely gorgeous. All of this makes it hard for Dean to continue his lie.
