    Summary

    Dean Winchester made a mistake he will never stop paying for.

    Taken by the Italian mafia, Dean disappears into a world of violence, control, and cruelty meant to break him down to nothing. Time loses meaning. Pain becomes routine. Survival is the only thing left.

    When a powerful Russian mob boss intervenes, Dean is pulled from one nightmare into a situation he doesn’t understand, one defined by quiet authority, protection, and unsettling kindness. Castiel is dangerous in ways Dean can recognize and in ways he can’t yet name.

    This is a story about captivity, trauma, and the long, uneven road to healing. About fear, power, and what it means to be protected after being destroyed.
    And about whether salvation can come from the darkest places.

    Summary

    The trade was filed while Ilya Rozanov was sedated. The visa paperwork was signed before he regained consciousness. His agent was gone by morning, his representation replaced, his entire professional existence quietly transferred into Scott Hunter’s hands overnight — and every single thing Scott did was legal, documented, and defensible.

    Ilya knows what this is. He can name every move, trace every wire. He just can’t prove any of it to anyone who would believe him over Scott Hunter — beloved captain, model professional, the man the whole league trusts. Does he even want to?

    In Montreal, Shane Hollander is the only person who knows the truth. He’s sworn to secrecy. He’s keeping notes. He is not leaving.

    Summary

    "Dean had fucked up.

    His head was cradled in his hands, doubled over on the cot. He wanted nothing more than to curl up into a ball of self-loathing and wish for his dad to rescue him, but he knew that was impossible. Especially since it had been Dean to get them all into this mess in the first place.

    They should have never taken a case in Gotham.

    He just wanted his Dad and Sammy."

    When a case brings the Winchester family to crime-ridden Gotham, they weren't prepared to be split from their father and taken care of by an emotionally-constipated Bruce Wayne, an angry Dick Grayson and a Jason Todd that is just happy to be involved.
