From the end of chapter 33. Ain't No Mountain High Enough

Castiel heard Dean's silent prayers to him, they were very faint but it was enough for the Angel to follow. In an instant he found his mate.

There Dean was, miles and miles from Angel Falls in a shabby motel. Castiel swooped down and appeared in front of John Winchester. The Angel was in his full glory; wings became shadows crawling across the dingy walls and his eyes burned intensely. He wasn't trying to be beautiful, Castiel wanted to be intimidating and he succeeded.

John Winchester was immediately scared shitless, knowing Angels existed and seeing one up close and personal were two different things.

It didn't help matters any that the sixteen year old was naked and unashamed. Castiel's head was cocked as he examined John like a roach on the bottom of a shoe.

Foolish John decided to go the asshole route with Castiel figuring he had nothing to lose at that point. He sneered at the naked teen Angel. "You should put some clothes on you little shit, I don't see much of anything impressive. How does Dean find your dick in that pelt you call pubic hair?"

The insults had little effect on Castiel. He could care less what John Winchester thought of his vessel. All he had on his mind was punishing this human for all the pain he caused. Castiel was filled with raw Angelic power and very human emotions, a dangerous combination. The Angel became distracted and forgot about Dean for a moment, focusing instead on the human waste in front of him.

Castiel backhanded the man sending him flying across the room. John hit the dresser splintering it into pieces. The Angel lifted the big man off his feet and shook him like a ragdoll.

"You don't deserve to be a father. Do you think you are the only one that was affected by Mary's death? Dean raised Sam and took the brunt of all your anger and frustration for your own failed existence." He dropped John who folded into a heap at his bare feet.

"Your sons will be better men than you John Winchester. By virtue of the poor example you have set they will exercise their free will and make this world a better place." Castiel crouched down in front of the man with his maleness dangling inches away. "I know everything you did to Dean…every blow, burn and break."

The Angel leaned in and whispered in the Hunters ear, "Just for your information, my dick is big enough to make your son scream with pleasure as I hit all the tender spots inside his beautiful body. Yes my public hair is thick and he likes it that way…it tickles his nose when he deep throats . Dean belongs to me; we have a profound bond, an unshakable love for each other."

He gave John a wicked smile. It was mostly Jimmy who was enjoying the twisted anger on John Winchesters face, and to some extent Castiel.

John roared as he lunged trying to throttle Castiel who felt none of John's weak attempts to harm him and backhanded the man once again.

Dean groaned in pain and called weakly for Castiel. The Angel was at his side in an instant. Castiel could heal with touch but hadn't mastered healing with a thought. The young Angel had much to learn.

He touched the cuffs and they fell off, "Dean, where does it hurt the most? I'll start there."

Dean lightly touched his ribs with his good hand then nodded his head toward his broken hand. Castiel ran his fingers lightly over Dean's chest covering every inch. Soothing warmth ran through and the ribs stopped their maddening grind, the ugly mottled bruising vanished. Dean took a deep breath and exhaled with no pain.

Next Castiel kissed Dean's broken fingers, "Move them for me."

Dean ran them gracefully through the air, "Thank you." Dean had bruises everywhere as well as a busted lip and a black eye but he didn't want John to see anymore of Castiel touching him. It was their private moment not to be shared with anyone else especially him.

The worst was healed and Dean could move again. "Babe we can finish me later, I can't stand him looking at us."

Castiel didn't care about John; he bent down and gave his lover a gentle kiss. "Tell me what you want to do with him. I feel an urge to smite the man and take him out of the equation altogether but he is your father and it should be your choice."

Dean looked over to John who was seething, looking at them both like he wanted to shoot the lovers dead. "I can't risk him getting to Sam. Sammy is only twelve and he can't defend himself. I love my brother and I won't let him be hurt like I was."

John called out to his son, "Dean you're all twisted up inside from his influence. He's swayed you with filthy sex and don't forget, he took that kids body."

Dean struggled to sit up and Castiel helped him, "You don't know anything! Jimmy and Castiel share it…you know what, go the Hell and I mean that literally."

Gabriel appeared in his full glory all golden wings and shimmering light putting on an impressive show. John knew this one was no run of the mill Angel if there even was such a thing. He cowered before Gabriel utterly speechless.

Gabriel toned it down and soon he was in his Apple Guy outfit looking pretty normal. The Archangel crooked his finger, "Castiel we need to speak in private." Gabriel froze John Winchester to the spot on the floor and vanished with Castiel.

….

Castiel spun around taking in his surroundings. He was standing inside the equivalent of an Angel playboy mansion, or playgirl depending on Gabriel's whims.

Red velvet curtains with gold fringe covered the windows; gilded classical cherubs adorned the archways and erotic reliefs hung on the walls. A champagne fountain stood in the center of the room and the floors were polished pale pink marble. The furniture was overstuffed, soft and ready for fun. It was Gabriel's love palace and Castiel was feeling a bit uncomfortable there.

The Archangel waved his hand around, "My humble retreat. Anyway the reason I brought you here was to speak in private. Castiel you are a novice Angel so let me handle John Winchester from here on out. I will give him a choice, get dropped in the middle of nowhere and never darken Sam and Dean's life again or I'll smite his sorry ass. In fact he will be on Angel radar until the day he dies."

Castiel frowned down at the large zebra stripe carpet, "You don't think I'm capable."

"I think you have growing up to do. Your powers are something that need time to mature. Hiding from a certain faction in Heaven is no longer an option for you unfortunately but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy yourself until you turn eighteen. Then decide what you want."

Castiel was once again feeling confused and sad. "Why do I even exist? I'm told these vague stories but I think everyone hides things from me. I'm tired of being treated like a child."

The Archangel ignored his whining, "You are going to be visited by other Angels over the next few years that will threaten or try an influence you, tell them to go flip a barstool and take a seat."

Gabriel checked his Hello Kitty jelly watch, "Crap, I have to get you back. Remember I'll take care of John, you take care of pretty boy."

….

John watched the lump under the blanket that was Dean hiding from him. "Dean you are not a fag, just admit you're doing this to get back at me."

Dean snorted under the blanket, "Jesus…do you even listen to yourself talk? I'm a card carrying member of the Pole Smoking Rump Rangers Club. The pole and rump I want is Cas', I love him. He treats me like I matter and never makes me feel stupid or worthless. Cas doesn't hurt or make fun of me and he treats Sammy like a little brother. He loves me dad, get over it. I never want to see you again."

Gabriel and Castiel appeared. Gabriel grabbed John by the scruff of the neck and vanished with him.

…..

Castiel pulled back the blanket and looked down at his love with a serious expression. He waved his hand and Dean was naked. Dean looked down at himself, "Whoa, that's new."

"I'm not very good at being an Angel yet; if I was I bet I could do that just by thinking about it." Castiel climbed in bed next to Dean. "Here, let me finish healing you."

Dean closed his good eye enjoying the soft pink lips kissing away his blooming bruises. After each contact his skin warmed up and tingled slightly. Soon Castiel was circling Dean's navel with his tongue. Just an inch lower he was faced with a stiff young dick dripping pre-cum. A deep, gravel voice murmured, "Are you sore here as well?"

Dean licked his parched lips, "Yeah, it's all swollen up."

"Mmm, I see that perhaps kisses are in order."

Gabriel and John appeared next to a cypress tree in the middle of nowhere. John clutched his jacket tightly around him to ward off the chilly air. There was a Gaucho riding behind a large herd of sheep and a dog pushing the livestock along.

John blew on his fingers then stuck them in his arm pits to keep warm. "Where the hell am I?"

Gabriel gave his madding trademark smirk, "Well lucky you, it's not Hell. We are in Patagonia on of sparsest populated regions in the world."

"Pada…what?"

The Archangel waved his hands in the air, "A place of myth and mystery, the end of the world, the realm of loneliness and wind, the land of no shelter."

John balled up his fists and turned to the Archangel, "You bring me home NOW!"

Gabriel, unencumbered by walls grew in size and stretched his wings across the landscape. "Listen to me Winchester, I'm fun and games for awhile but I have a line and you crossed it a long time ago. This is the deal; you stay here and die, survive or thrive…your choice buddy. Your ass in on Angel radar and if you so much as think of leaving or contacting Sam, Dean or anyone associated with them its smiting time big boy. Got it?"

He nodded.

Gabriel left him with warm clothes, a map, local currency, water and food. He pointed to the Gaucho almost out of sight. "If you hurry you can still catch him. I suggest you be very kind to the natives and they will be kind right back. These are good people."

John decided to try begging, "But…"

"But nothing, you are lucky I came along and stopped Cas from smiting you. The only reason why I did that is because the choice would have haunted Dean for the rest of his life. I want you to know that despite everything you did to him there was still a little bit of love he reserved for you John. Now think about that while you have all this time to reflect on your bad choices. The worst punishment for you is losing Sam and Dean. They were the best parts of you and maybe you'll figure that out someday. Too bad, you will never see them again."

With that Gabriel vanished leaving the man to ponder and wander.

….

Even after everything that had happened to him, kidnapped, beaten and belittled by John, Dean gave himself to Castiel his personal savior. The Angels warm mouth engulfed his dick, sliding down to the base and back up again in a steady rhythm. It was a balm to Dean's battered soul. When he shot his load down Castiel's gullet Dean felt his tortured mind let go and be still.

Castiel held and rocked Dean until he dozed off in the safety of the Angel's arms.

Sam woke up to an empty house and a scribbled note from Angie that said she was going with Brady to find Dean and not to worry.

He was angry they left him behind. Sam stayed home from school and made himself a bowl of cereal figuring someone would show up sooner or later, when no one came home by sunset that was when Sam moved to the roof and there he stayed with his ever faithful orange tabby.

After a few hours the Impala turned into the gravel drive so Sam climbed back inside and went to meet his brother. When he got there Cas was in the drivers seat and Dean looked fast asleep next to him.

….

Angie and Brady headed home at daybreak the next day. Both were exhausted and neither knew Dean was already home sleeping. They planned on calling for assistance from Bobby and a few trusted people when they got back to the farmhouse.

Brady almost ran off the road when a tall, grinning man appeared right in front of them. He slammed on the brakes and came to a stop inches from the ditch.

Angie felt for her shotgun behind the seat but Brady pointed to the set of black wings spreading behind the suited figure, "I don't think bullets are going to do anything against that."
