For All Our Sacrifices

Chapter Four: Deceived

"Katherine?" Castiel asked as he washed the dishes, earning a hum in reply from him lover, "Will we make love tonight?"

"Why, do you want to?" Katherine asked, Castiel smiling and blushing.

"I miss you. You've seemed...rather closed off recently, sweetheart." He said with a grimace, "I want to love you in the truest form possible, yet I don't want to upset you."

"Oh, baby..." Katherine breathed, "C'mere."

Castiel moved over to her and sat beside her on the couch, the young woman putting her book down and curling up to him, rubbing his chest.

"Lucifer is staying with Kayleigh tonight." She told him, "No-one's made any plans to go out with us. It's just you and me."

Castiel looked at her with his gentle blue eyes and kissed her forehead.

"I say we make love tonight." She said with a soft blush, "We can for hours without fear of disturbing anyone."

Castiel chuckled, leaning in to kiss Katherine when they were disturbed by the slamming of the front door, sobs coming from Lucifer's lips as he went to bolt up the stairs. He was truly distraught and Katherine raced straight after him, Castiel following as they reached his room.

"Lucifer?" Katherine said softly as she knocked on the door, "What's the matter, sweetie? Can...can I come in?"

"Just you." Came the reply, Castiel smiling and kissing her head.

"I'll be downstairs." He said softly, Katherine nodding and heading inside the room, finding Lucifer on his front, crying his eyes out.

He threw the photo frame Kayleigh gave him into the wall and it broke, Katherine jumping at the action.

"Hey, hey, hey, calm down, honey..." She said softly, going to the bed and rubbing his back, "What happened?"

She gasped as Lucifer sat up and threw himself into her arms, crying his heart out into her shoulder.

"K-Kayleigh..." He sobbed, "Sh-she's been cheating on me..."

Katherine couldn't believe it. Kayleigh? Cheating? No! No, it just...It didn't seem possible! Why would she cheat on Lucifer? The man treated her like a princess. It wasn't like she didn't know the truth. Katherine swore to herself to hunt that bitch down and kick her ass from there until the next millennium. She vowed to. For Lucifer.

"Oh, sweetheart." She whispered, kissing his temple, "You deserve so much better than her...It's gonna be okay. Don't worry yourself over her, she's not worthy of you, alright? You're so much better than she is."

"B-but I loved her." Lucifer whispered, Katherine pulling back to look at him.

"Really?" She asked with a raised eyebrow, Lucifer realising that his feelings of love weren't really love at all.

He shook his head, Katherine holding him close and rocking him.

"Cry it out, Luce." She said softly, "Cry it out, baby. It's okay."

She hushed him as he sobbed, continuing to rock him gently.

"Sh, sh, shhh..." She whispered, "It's okay. It's okay."


Castiel comforted Lucifer as Katherine put a knife in her boot, keeping her gun tucked into her belt.

"Katherine, where are you going?" Castiel asked, unnerved by how annoyed Katherine looked.

"I'm gonna find that whore. And I'm gonna kill her."

"Katherine, that won't solve anything." The former angel told her, Katherine just shaking her head at him and grabbing her keys for the truck.

"Well, it'll show her what happens to people who mess with my boyfriend's brother." She snarled, "I got my keys. You don't have to wait up for me."

With that, she stormed out of the door, almost walking into Crowley.

"Where are you going?" He asked, taking in her tearful eyes, "What's happened?"

"Kayleigh's been cheating on Lucifer, and he's a wreck!" Katherine cried, "I gotta find her...and kick her ass."

"Darling?"

"What?" Katherine snapped, turning to see Crowley looking at her sadly before he rubbed her back gently.

"Be careful."

He continued to the house while she drove away in her truck, towards the bar where she knew, in all likelihood, Kayleigh would be.


It was gone two. Katherine still wasn't home, and Castiel was stupidly concerned. Lucifer had finally gone to bed and Crowley was out looking for her, but Castiel wasn't at rest. He was worried sick. But a crash sounded into the night and Castiel rushed to the front door, opening it to find Crowley carrying Katherine in his arms, the young woman bleeding from her side.

"It's nothing serious." He said immediately, trying to calm the angel, "Someone just...nicked her with a knife that's all..."

"What was that bang?" Castiel asked, "And this isn't just a nick, look at the amount of blood."

"It's nothing I can't fix and as for the bang..." Crowley said, "I had to bring the truck back, she couldn't drive."

As soon as Crowley began to push Katherine's shirt up Castiel started to glare, and Crowley could completely understand why, but now wasn't the time to get jealous.

"I can't do anything to heal her, Castiel, unless I touch her bare skin. I swear to God, you have nothing to worry about." Crowley said, "How the hell could anything sexual happen with her in this state anyway?"

Castiel just tutted and Crowley sighed, resting a hand on the wound which earned him a whimper of pain from the young woman.

"Katherine? Open your eyes, love." He said softly, "Open your eyes, I need something from you."

"Her soul?" Castiel asked, Crowley swatting his arm with his free hand.

"No, you imbecile, just shut up for a minute!"

"Crowley?" Katherine mumbled, Crowley smiling gently at her.

"Yes, darling?"

"W-what d'you need me to do?"

"I'm not making a deal, but you need to give me permission to kiss you so I can heal this wound on your side, okay? It's wide and it's deep." Crowley said, "Y'know, it's kind of disgusting as well, but we won't go into that."

"D-do whatever you n-need to..." Katherine whispered, Crowley nodding and looking to Castiel.

"I swear, it won't last long, alright?" He said, "I'm just trying to help. That thing's too deep to just stitch."

Castiel nodded and watched as Crowley pressed his lips to his lover's watching in shock as the wound on her side healed nicely without even leaving a scar, and as promised, as soon as he'd completed the healing, he stopped kissing her and let her pull her top back down.

"Thank you." Castiel said quietly, Katherine repeating the notion which earned her a gentle smile from Crowley.

"No problem." He said to both lovers, looking at Castiel as he stood to leave, "Maybe you should get her to bed."

Castiel nodded and helped Katherine stand up, pressing a gentle kiss to her temple as they shared a loving embrace.


"Mmm, oh, Cas..." Katherine breathed, the feeling of her angel filling her making her tremble and shiver even more in his arms.

They shared kisses, some light and gentle, some deep and loving, some on the lips, some on the cheek, some on the neck, the shoulders, the eyelids or forehead. Castiel loved to kiss Katherine, no matter where on her body. She was so beautiful, he couldn't resist it.

Her soul was the most beautiful he'd ever seen, obviously apart from his charge's but that was just a natural angelic reaction to a charge's soul. If you were to exclude charges, Katherine's definitely stood out from any other in the world. He loved being inside her body, feeling her around him, moving against him, holding him.

The pair reached climax and Katherine settled, shaking, sweating and sated in Castiel's embrace. The former angel was just the same as she was and they settled as he pulled away from her body, just looking at each other. Katherine turned out her bedside lamp and curled up to him, Castiel smiling and curling up to her in return.

"Love you."

"Love you."

Katherine smiled and kissed his cheek, settling against him and grinning softly.

"Castiel?"

"Katherine?"

"I want to try for a baby."
