A/N: I had a lotta trouble with this chapter. sorry if it sucked.

Warning: I'm a horrible person

Sam was slightly stuck in a state of shock as he watched everything.

He had cried out when Cas collapsed sobbing. He was so lost, didn't understand what was happening. But then it got more confusing as Gabriel stopped cowering. Sam's eyes widened as he watched Gabriel crawl over to Cas on his own free will. The omega took the dom into his arms, cradling him like a child and cooing lovingly to him.

Then Sam's heart skipped a beat. Gabriel spoke again. It wasn't like that morning where it had been clear, no this was clearly a sub-minded creature speaking. The words made Sam want to be jealous but he found he couldn't. This was not what he first suspected: a long-lost couple reuniting.

No, this was different. The words, the touches, the licks. Nothing about it was sexual in the least. This relationship was something far different.

Sam froze, heart pounding. Memories of the day before surfaced. He felt sad and sick to his stomach as he remembered Cas ringing up his purchases. The clerk had been so sad, looking at Gabriel's tag. Cas had told him about a brother that had run away.

Sam's gut twisted. Because that brother hadn't run away.

"C-cas." His voice cracked, "I-I need to go take a shower. C-can you keep an eye on Gabriel for me?"

Cas took a shuddering breath and nodded weakly. He clung to Gabriel, petting and stroking his hair, "Y-yeah. W-we'll be here."

"Thanks." Sam stood there awkwardly for a moment before turning to slink off to the shower. He was stopped by Cas' voice.

"Wait, Sam."

"Yeah."

"He thinks I'm his pup. Because he raised me." Cas informed Sam awkwardly. He took a steadying breath and looked up at Sam pleadingly as he snuggled in Gabriel's arms, "D-do you have a bedroom I can take him to? Preferably not your own. A sub won't open up and talk with its pup if it fears that its dom will walk in."

Sam's heart sunk slightly at the information. His eyes watered as his heart ached for the two men but nodded. He pointed over to the staircase, "Yeah, there's a hall under the stairs. First door on the left is a guest bedroom."

"Thank you, Sam." Cas whispered softly and hugged his brother again. Sam swallowed thickly and nodded, leaving them curled in each other's arms.

Cas took a deep breath as he gently sat Gabriel down on the neat bed. He gave a quivering smile as he lovingly raised Gabriel's chin. He stroked his brother's hair, using his fingers to lovingly comb it the way his sibling used to keep it. His soul felt like it was breaking the longer he looked at the smaller man.

Cas felt like crying again as he touched Gabriel's hair, there was an old scar marring his hairline. He had seen enough abused subs to know head trauma when he saw it. Anger and sadness warred inside of him. But, he stuffed it down, wanting to savor this reunion.

He grabbed a chair from the corner of the room and placed it in from Gabriel, then sat in it. He sat eye to eye with his lost sibling. He felt sick. The past twenty years had not been kind to Gabriel. He looked worn down and abused. He was too thin, gray starting to fleck his hair, and his skin was covered in healing bruises.

"H-hi, C-cassie." Gabriel struggled with the words, his voice sounded damaged and unused. God, he sounded awful. Nothing like the sweet, playful voice that Cas held dear in his memories.

"Hello, Gabriel." Cas leaned forward, resting his forehead against Gabriel's. He blinked back tears as his sibling began to purr affectionately. Cas swallowed convulsively and tenderly cupped Gabriel's face, "I really missed you, Mama."

His words made a broken smile creep onto Gabriel's face. The vaguest sparkle of happiness shimmered for a second in dull amber eyes. Gabriel's hands, shaking with emotion, raised slightly and rested lovingly on Cas' shoulders, "M-missed you too, P-pup."

Gabriel began to sniff softly as he stroked over Cas' broad shoulders, "S-so handsome, Cassie. G-grew into b-big, strong dom." Gabriel sounded so proud. Cas flushed softly at his brother's words but straightened up at the praise.

"Pretty b-bitch?" Gabriel asked curiously as his trembling hands busied themselves with straightening Cas' clothes like a good mother. Cas smiled and let his brother do as he pleased.

"Handsome, actually. Very masculine." Cas said dreamily and nodded. He gave a pleased growl that made Gabriel purr happily in reply, "He's actually pregnant with my second litter, Mama. Our first takes care of him and helps him with the housework."

Gabriel purred louder, nodding happily. He was so happy that Cas had a sub he obviously enjoyed, his pup deserved the best. He froze suddenly at the sound of his pup having a litter. But before he could get scared that Castiel was the same as the other, his pup spoke of keeping the litter.

"Y-you kept the l-litter?" Gabriel asked weakly, stunned. Cas smiled brightly and chuckled.

"Yes. We kept the whole litter." Cas kissed his brother's hair, "Would you like to see your grandpups, Gabriel?"

Gabriel nodded eagerly, trembling with excitement. Cas smiled brightly and got up. He moved and sat beside Gabriel on the bed. He pulled out his phone and pulled the omega against his side. He opened up the gallery and selected the picture that also served as his background.

"Here. This is my family." Cas gently placed the phone in Gabriel's hands. He then began to point out the members, "This is my sub and husband, Dean. We met at college, that's when he orientated."

Gabriel whined softly at the piece of info but said nothing more. He swallowed thickly as he stared at the breeder sub. He was huge, masculine, healthy, and well-muscled. Gabriel shrank down slightly, he felt pathetic and inadequate compared to such an outstanding sub. He was glad that Cas had gotten such an impressive sub.

"These are our children." Cas told him slowly, pointing to the little ones in the picture. The children looked to be about eight. Gabriel cooed softly at the sight of them. They were all beautiful and healthy looking.

"D-do they have n-names?" Gabriel asked softly in awe as he looked at his nieces and nephew. Cas frowned and clenched his eyes shut in disgust at the question. He had actually forgotten that most doms didn't name the pups they kept in case they ever got an offer on them. So, Cas had to swallow down the bile in his throat before answering.

"Yes, Mama. They're all named. See this one…" He pointed to the smiling girl on the left, her hair in pigtails, "…That's Tayla, she's our little tomboy. Next to her is Joanna, our fairy princess. This is our only male, sweet as can be. His name's Railey, he's a smart little scrap. And the last one is Mary. She's rather motherly, like you, and helps Dean out the most around the house."

"T-they're all so b-beautiful." Gabriel whispered in fascination. His pup had a full healthy litter of pups, all growing up.

"Thank you. What about you, Gabe?" Cas asked curiously, stroking his brother's hair, "You've been gone a long time. You have any pups?"

Cas's blood went cold as Gabriel suddenly froze up. His big brother stopped breathing and started shaking. Cas' phone fell from Gabriel's shaking hands, hitting the carpet with a thud. The life drained from Gabriel's honey-colored eyes as tears started to stream down his thin cheeks.

"Gabe? Gabriel?!" Cas called worriedly to his sibling. He pulled the smaller man into his arms, shaking him gently in concern, "Gabe, speak to me!"

"A-all gone… P-pups all g-gone… S-sold…" Gabriel choked out the stuttered words. The same ones in distorted orders started rambling from his mouth. What little clarity he had gained around Cas had fractured again.

Cas swallowed as he desperately tried to sooth his brother. He shushed him gently and rubbed his back. He felt sick, but he had to know. How many nieces and nephews was he missing? "H-how many, Gabe? H-how many pups have you had, Mama?"

"A-all gone.." Gabriel whimpered, pawing anxiously at the fur of his foxtail plug for comfort, "F-fifteen… B-birthed f-fifteen pups. A-all gone. N-never got to n-nurse… W-want to n-nurse… N-need to n-nurse…!"

"O-oh god." Cas felt like he was going to throw up. He convulsively swallowed back the bile in his throat and clutched his sibling close in his arms. He hid his face in Gabriel's hair and sobbed as he rocked his brother.

What Hell had Gabriel been forced to endure?!
