Castiel sat with Sophia in a garden of her own making. The scent of rare flowers, the sound of trickling water from the stream, strange birds lit in the trees and shrubs. Wildly colorful butterflies went from flower to flower. "Did you create all of these?" Castiel examined a huge rabbit in the grass with violet eyes.

"Of course I did, it is my sanctuary" Sophia pointed up "When times get too stressful there." She gestured to a marble bench "Sit Castiel and tell me why you are in this trouble, how you let a human male partner with you and what possible purpose would it serve to couple with him."

Castiel, elbows resting on his knees sighed and looked at his sister seraph "Why is it male angels from the beginning of time could mate with female humans, create half breed children and though not encouraged is not frowned upon? I love a male human and since there will be no offspring from our union it makes no sense to my garrison?"

Turning to Sophia and holding her hands Castiel tried to think of the right words. " I spent time with Dean Winchester and in the course of protecting, I saw at his weakest he tried to be strong. He feels pain, love and emotion on such a deep level but hidden under a rough outer shell. The love he has for his family and friends….a sense of loyalty to people he cares about, the intensity of that passion as a human made me love him in a way that became a wanting."

Sophia waved the air in front of her and a watery image appeared of Dean driving back to Castiel. She drew her finger in the image and focused on Dean's face. "He is very handsome, actually beautiful, refined features, he would appeal to females and males alike" She waved her hand in the air and the image faded "and apparently angels." Castiel, look how opening yourself up to him hurt you, can you not just mate? Sexual identity is complicated for humans. It shouldn't be for an angel, ours is fluid, different from them."

Castiel closed his eyes, getting tired of the conversation "I love you sister but if you and the others can't accept this then we have nothing to talk about, I want to go back to him now."

Sophia hugged Castiel and kissed him "No, no brother I accept it, I don't understand it but I see how strongly you feel. I love you and if you see this good in Dean Winchester, if he really loves you in return then stay with him and I give my blessing. If he hurts you I will be here." She held her arms above her head "We will be here, now go and be happy."

Sophia touched him lightly on the face "goodbye". Castiel was back outside Bobby's house, he sat and waited for Dean.

…

Sam decided to lay low in the cabin thinking that the others would think he took off. He needed time to figure out what to do. Sam knew eventually they would come for him if they got his soul back but he didn't have any place to go or a plan at the moment.

Everyone assumed when Sam came back without an intact soul that he had no emotions but they couldn't have been more wrong. He brought back the worst emotions and feelings a human can have. Greed, jealousy, anger, spite, a self centered view of the world around him and worst of all a taste for raw, painful sex, control was all important to him. The harder he worked someone the higher he felt. A need to own another burned in Sam and tasting the goodness of the angel, feeling the lust in his brother was like best drug possible. His hands shook trying to control himself.

Sam got comfortable on the bed, taking in the lingering scents around him, he began to work himself with his hand, excited at the memories of the angel screaming and the sounds his brother's orgasm and he grew harder at the thought of both happening at the same time.

…

Dean pulled up to the house and saw Castiel standing there, rumpled coat, messy hair and the most beautiful sight in the world. He jumped out of the Impala and ran over to the angel.

Castiel took Dean in his open arms and held him. "Baby… Cas I missed you so much." Then Dean broke down and cried. The stress and pain of the last two days started to come to a head and he could hardly contain it all. Dean opened his eyes and they were standing in his and Sam's old room at Bobby's. Castiel removed first Dean's clothes and then his own. The angel ran his hand over Dean's skin touching the bruises.

"Stop it Cas, I'm fine" Dean pulled away. "No you are not, you can't lie to me Dean I know what you are thinking, I see it and I feel the pain in your heart." He put Dean on the bed and gently healed the damage done to Dean's body.

"I don't want to talk about it ok?" Dean felt a deep shame even though Sam was the one that did the hurting. I know what Sam did to you Cas, you are the one I'm worried about. This is my fault."

Castiel kneeled in front of him "no, everything that happens in life isn't your fault. My body is as it was before Sam had me. I'm…..intact for you, I'm complete." Castiel blushed and turned away feeling foolish.

Dean held his face "Hey, is that what you were worried about? Did you think that was all you brought to the table here, no way sweetheart I love you no matter what." Dean pulled Castiel into the bed with him. They lay there holding each other, not speaking.

Castiel touched Dean's temple and all was shown to him. Everything Sam did to Dean from slamming his head into the car, forcing himself in his brother's mouth, the cord choking him, the rape with the bottle, forcing himself on Dean, chaining him like an animal and the flurry of painful words.

Castiel touch Deans forehead and he fell into a deep, restful sleep.

Castiel was burning inside, his eyes hard and filled with the light of anger. He knew what he would do now.

…

Sam heard a rush of wind through the cabin and was instantly lifted to the rafters by Castiel. "Do not speak you monster, " Castiel held him under the arms and shook Sam like a doll, "No sigils hold and drain me this time, you have brought down a wrath as you have never seen. You hurt me and that was unforgivable, EVERYTHING I did for you was nothing in your eyes but you committed the ultimate sin to me," Castiel shook Sam again, "You hurt Dean, I fixed his broken body but his spirit is something I cannot fix."

Castiel dropped Sam on the bed and he landed hard letting out a sharp breath. Sam held himself and looking at the vengeance filled angel above him terrified.

Castiel was now on top of him, naked "What should I do to you Sam?" Castiel has his head cocked to the side thinking, eyes burning into Sam's, cutting through the darkness in the cabin. Castiel waved his hand and the candles were lit in the room. "I want you to see what I'm doing to you little insect." The angel smiled.

Sam tried to squirm away, Castiel grabbed Sam's long hair and slammed his head back into the pillow. Smoothing back the frightened man's hair away from his face Castiel grabbed tight with both hands and slammed Sam into the pillow again. "This will go as hard as you make it for me….oh and Sam you can take that several ways." The angel slapped Sam across the face and opened the wound on his mouth from Dean's boot earlier. Castiel bent down and licked the blood from Sam's lips and smiled. "You are actually scared of me, I taste the fear. Now you know how your brother felt."

Sam laughed at the angel "I'm not sorry for anything I did to you or Dean. Castiel did I tell you that after I fucked Dean he let me suck his cock and he loved it, even loved the handcuffs and I think he actually didn't mind the bottle. Like I said, you are just a distraction. Hell I bet Dean will feel like a real man when he breaks in that already broken ass of yours."

Castiel grabbed Sam's throat and growled. He tried to break the angels grasp then started to turn blue. Castiel let him go and kissed Sam hard smearing the blood across his mouth. "Hey Cas, Dean and I did this already, can you come up with your own ideas or is this going to be Sammy's Greatest Hits? Should I get out the handcuffs and you can call me Dean?" Sam started laughing again.

Castiel pulled Sam off the bed and slammed him against the wall. The Angel kicked Sam's legs apart. Grabbing his hair and pulling his head back Castiel spoke softly into his ear, "I don't need props to make you do what I want." The angel wrapped an arm around his waist and pressed against him. Sam felt Castiel's cock pressing against him.

Sam was breathing heavy, he wanted it and the angels raw power, the way he tossed Sam around like a toy, how Sam had no power made him hard enough to cut brick. Pressing back against Castiel , Sam smiled "Pull my hair some more, I'm liking this."

Castiel picked him up then slammed him hard on the bed, he stretched out fully on the Sam's long body and looked into his eyes "Your brother was right, you are quite fetching Sam." Castiel licked the line of sweat running down his neck.

Sam's eyes were closed, chin tilted and mouth open, he was lost.
