Summary
Dean Winchester, star closing pitcher with the Toronto Blue Jays and the only openly-bi player in Major League Baseball, is having one of the best seasons of his career. His entire focus is on helping his team win, reach the post-season and make a play for a spot in the World Series.
That is, until the most handsome man Dean has ever seen walks into the locker room and introduces himself as Castiel Novak, their new team reporter.
Sparks fly under the ballpark lights, and soon Dean realizes that maybe there’s more to life than just the love of the game.

Summary
Wealthy, handsome, and very single Dean Winchester wanted to be CEO of his family's wine business. But in order to be considered for the position, he signed a contract with a clause that he had to be married wholeheartedly for at least a year by the eighty-fifth anniversary of the company, which was when his grandfather would name the next CEO. Guess who put it off until the last minute? But hey, he already arranged to marry one of his employees, no problem...well, no problem until she didn't show up, anyway.
The random employee he dragged along to witness the wedding had a solution.

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
Castiel has spent his young life hidden away in a crumbling fortress deep in the forest, watching a world he is destined never to join. It's a solitary existence, but with his companions, the wolf and the crow, it has always been enough. But on the night a stranger finds his way into Castiel’s sanctuary, something in him begins to wake and questions begin to surface.
Dean Winchester has never questioned the path laid out before him - knighthood, duty, and a future chosen by his father. But when dreams of a man he’s never met begin to haunt him - dreams that feel more real than waking, Dean finds himself drawn toward something he can't explain, and the mysterious man he cannot resist.
As destiny begins to unravel around them, Castiel and Dean must choose between the lives they were meant to live and the one they are desperate to claim together, before the truth of Castiel's curse destroys them both and threatens the future of Camelot itself!

Summary
Ever since he was a sapling, Castiel knew he was different. The forest was full of trees, but none were like him. It did not trouble him much. Not while the human boy, Dean, spent the days beneath his branches, filling the quiet by recounting adventurous tales in the shade of Castiel’s leaves.
As they grew together, Castiel knew they were kindred. Until the day the Dean’s family moved, and Castiel was left alone.
Years later, when Dean returns to the forest as a grown man, Castiel discovers that some connections don’t fade, and that love, once rooted, has a way of changing everything, and that even the wildest things can find a place to call home.

Summary
It's easier to submit to your deepest desires when the circumstances are anonymous and businesslike. At least that's what Dean thinks and why he decides to pay for a service of an experienced Dom. What he doesn't know is that even with your hands tied and blindfolded you are not immune to feelings.
Castiel has been a Dom for years, he learned to read people well and there´s not much that can surprise him. Until Dean becomes his client and then much more.
This story is all about control. About giving it, taking it and losing it. Most of all it´s about the things we have no control over.
