    Summary

    Dean's never seen himself as a particularly optimistic person.

    But even if he had. He thinks he'd have had trouble feeling overly positive about his new owner. A thirty-year old weirdo, some lonely alpha shut inside a malfunctioning lighthouse like it's his own personal fortress. Plus, the kindhearted captain, reluctant to bring him up. The people in town, who don't see much of him.

    Dean, about to be thrown to the wolves.

    Summary

    Castiel is accustomed to working with mistreated submissives. At 28, he's one of the leading experts in his field, having pioneered the usage of a much softer style of domination as a treatment for Submissive Rejection Syndrome. His insistence on handling issues of "defiance" with gentleness and patience has ruffled some feathers in the world of submissive psychology, but there’s no arguing with his success rate.

    When he gets the call about Dean, though, Cas almost can't believe what he's hearing. Suffering from the exceedingly rare Complete Submissive Rejection Syndrome, Dean has never once in his life gone into subspace, and has become so feral and violent in an effort to keep dominants away from him that he’s in danger of being put down.

    The man is a challenge like nothing Cas has ever faced before, and he doesn’t know if mere kindness will be enough to pull him back from the brink. Chasing Dean’s trust, Cas struggles to find a way to tear down the submissive’s walls and show him he’s safe enough to let himself go.

    But true trust is a two way street, and Cas has walls of his own. When Dean starts to knock on them, will Cas be brave enough to answer?

    Summary

    '‘Are you gonna fucking help me or not? We don’t have all day!’'

    Shit. Okay, he can do this.

    '‘I- yeah. Yes.’' he responds, and seals his fate before he even registers the words leaving his mouth.

    Gently manoeuvring the barely conscious omega so one of his arms is resting over Castiel’s shoulder, he begins to move as he looks to Gabriel, meeting his eyes for the briefest of moments.

    '‘Lead the way,'’ he says, and doesn't look back as he crosses the point of no return.

    A retelling of the amazing fic ‘Heretic Pride’ that I couldn't not write, featuring an alternative scenario where Castiel stays after the funeral and, together with Gabriel, takes in Balthazar and helps him become his future friend and co-worker.

    Summary

    After five long years of belonging to Alistair, Dean is finally free. The alpha is dead, and unless he gets bought by the end of the day, he will be too. He's thankful. It would take an insane alpha to look at him, at his age and how broken he is, and decide to buy him. After so long, the end is in sight, and he is ready for the peace of death.

    Castiel on the other hand, does not want to be at the auction. His brothers dragged him along, declaring that they were finally going to make a proper alpha out of him, and get him an omega of his own. He hates his family and their views, but he can't bring himself to cut them off.

    What will happen when these two paths cross? Is it possible they will find something new in each other? And may there actually be light at the end of the tunnel?

    Summary

    Living with Dean is easy, at first. It's slow and sweet. After all, they're in love, constantly in each other's space in Castiel's tiny apartment. For a moment, it feels like a dream.
    Soon, though, it turns out things are not as they seem.
    A change in omega laws has them questioning more than just their relationship. Castiel gets blindsided by his feelings and does things he regrets. And Dean... well. Living with Dean is not easy. Not at all.
