Author's notes: Okay, so I got a lot of questions from people about whether Eden is an alpha, beta or submissive, so let me clarify it to you: the alpha/beta/submissive only applies to the males (demons and angels only) while females are just females. Alpha males have more testosterone, more muscle, stronger wings, etc., to give them an advantage over the betas when fighting for a mate. The betas are kinda like regular guys, you might say. Submissives look like males but internally they work like females – no potent sperm but have a uterus instead (hermaphrodites, so to say XD). They are also less muscled and smaller than the betas and alphas. Submissives mostly only mate with alphas (because they can't mate or bond with females) – which means that Dean and Cas are actually not gay in this story. Females – both human, angel and demon – are just females, but of course they can have dominant or submissive personality traits but it doesn't make them an alpha, beta or submissive.

I hope it cleared things up a bit for you? :)

Please enjoy reading chapter 2.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

The following week went by rather quietly. Both Dean and Castiel were home to take of the new baby, and Eden was in daycare most of the day. Adrian turned out to be a rather calm baby too, but he was a bit more demanding when he was awake than Eden was because he had more appetite and didn't like to lie alone for too long.

A week after Adrian's birth, Jo and Tom dropped by with Jason to visit and see the new baby. Sam and Jess had already seen the baby a few days ago and had congratulated them.

Eden was excited to see Jason again and show off her new little brother.

As soon as Jo and Tom arrived and stepped inside, Eden ran over to Jason, excitedly.

The human boy had light brown hair (like Tom) and brown eyes (like Jo), and he was a head taller than Eden. He had a few freckles here and there, but they were fading a bit as winter slowly approached.

"Whoa, Eden, let the guests come in first," Dean told her and looked down at his daughter.

Eden pouted. "But I wanna show lil' bruhder to Jason."

"Wow, you're a proud big sister, aren't you?" Jo grinned and patted Eden's head.

Eden grinned back and her tail curled around her leg, shyly.

Their guests went inside and Dean closed the door behind them. Castiel was attending to Adrian in the nursery who had just woken from his nap, before he entered the living room where everyone was gathered, and held little Adrian in his arms.

Jo immediately came over to see the new baby, as did Tom, but Jason wasn't able to see anything, not even when he moved up on his toes.

"Oh, he is so adorable!" Jo exclaimed. "Doesn't look like a badass alpha at all."

"Not yet, no, but I think one day he will," Castiel smiled and rocked the baby who began crying. He was likely getting hungry again. "Dean, could you warm him some milk, please?" he asked and looked up at his mate.

"Sure," Dean said and moved to the kitchen to begin warming the formula and preparing a bottle.

"His wings are quite different from Eden's, is that normal?" Tom asked, and frowned at the white wings with black and grey feathers mixed into them. The wings were still downy and soft.

"I believe so. Charlie told us that each child we have is going to have unique characteristics," Castiel explained, and kept rocking and soothing the baby. Adrian was a bit calmer now and was only sobbing softly.

"Papa, can Jason see, too?" Eden asked, and grasped the angel's sweatpants as she looked up at him.

Castiel looked down at her. "Of course, but be gentle, okay?"

Both children nodded and Castiel smiled at them before kneeling down so they could see. His large, white wings were still folded behind his back and touched the ground. As soon as he was eyelevel with them, Jason looked curiously at the baby.

Eden came over and grinned at her little brother proudly. She gently touched his little hand and the baby looked at her with his large bluish green eyes.

"When can he walk?" Jason asked curiously, causing the others to laugh. He looked up at the adults in confusion when they laughed at his question.

"Maybe in about a year," Castiel chuckled, and stood up again when Adrian sobbed and squirmed.

"I see he's already taking a few traits from Dean… Always hungry and waiting for food to be served," Jo commented, and glanced over at Dean with a smirk.

"Hey! I've actually been cooking for the past two months or so. Cas taught me a bit…" Dean said in his defense, and poured the warm milk into a bottle. He tested the milk's temperature on his arm before walking over towards Cas with the bottle.

"Really? You? Cooking? That can't be good…" Jo snorted, unconvinced.

"His burgers actually did turn out to be quite delicious," Castiel smirked, and took the bottle that Dean handed him. He smiled down at his little son and fed him. Adrian practically melted into his arms when he started eating and looked back up at him.

"Wow, maybe I underestimated you, Dean," Jo smiled. She shoved Dean in a friendly gesture and the demon grinned.

"Yeah, maybe you did."

They sat down on the couch together and began chatting, while Eden and Jason were playing around next to them and behind the couch. The two children laughed and chased each other, until Dean told them to quiet down and stop running.

Eden pouted up at her father but Dean stood his ground, and eventually the children quieted down and began playing with Lego and toy animals instead. Jason still liked Eden's tail and wings a lot, but he had been told not to touch or pull them because it would hurt her. Sometimes he still brushed against Eden's wing or tail when they played or stood close, which the girl didn't seem to mind, but he knew that her parents (especially Dean) kept a close eye.

Eden began telling Jason about her new little brother, and how the other children in her daycare center (she and Jason lived in different cities and went to different daycare centers) had been envious that she would have a playmate at home now. Some of them were still only-children with no siblings yet.

After Eden told him this, Jason came over to Jo while his mother was talking to the others on the couch, and he pulled at her skirt to get her attention.

"Mommy? I also want a lil' brother, can I have a lil' brother, too?" Jason asked, and stared up at his mother expectantly.

Jo stared at him in almost shock before she burst out, "What?! You don't ask your mother such a thing, Jason! Why do you ask that?" She blushed like mad and glared at Dean who was cracking up.

"Because Eden has a lil' brother and some of the others in the daycare also do… I also want one," Jason muttered and pouted at her.

Tom chuckled and pulled Jason up into his lap, while Jo kept blushing like a tomato.

"Getting jealous there, son?" Tom grinned. "Your mother and I were actually talking about it—"

"Tom! Will you shut up!" Jo growled, flushing, and slapped his arm.

"Not sure I wanted to know about that…" Dean commented, and smirked when Jo glared over at him.

"I would appreciate it if you stopped teaching the children bad words…" Castiel muttered. "But I'm glad to hear that you are planning on having another child." He smiled at Jo and Tom, while he rocked Adrian in his arms. The baby was getting sleepy again.

"Well, nothing is decided yet," Jo blushed. She looked like she just wanted to escape the conversation at any price, and Dean laughed at her.

"Funny how you don't have a problem telling me and Cas to have kids, but when the talk is about you and Tom having kids, you just blush and shut down completely," the demon grinned.

Jo glared at him, until Castiel got up from the couch to put the little one to bed. Eden eagerly got up to follow him and Jason decided to join too. The angel smiled at the children and told them to be quiet, while they followed him to the nursery and watched him put the little baby into the crib for him to nap. Neither of the children had seen such a small baby before they saw Adrian, and they both thought it was quite interesting to watch him.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

About an hour later someone was ringing the doorbell. Dean and Castiel glanced at each other in wonder before the demon got up to answer the door. When Dean opened the door he was attacked by Gabriel who pulled him into a tight glomp.

"Dean-o! Congratulations on the new baby! Although it was my bro who did all the hard work," Gabriel grinned and pulled back after he had hugged the air out of the demon.

"Gabe? We didn't expect you to come," Dean spoke and looked at his brother-in-law in surprise. He coughed a little and tried to get his breath back.

"Hey, I did tell you the band was done with the concerts this week and that I might drop by," the angel said in defense. "I didn't come at a bad time, did I…?"

"No, not at all. Jo and Tom are here, so…"

"Ohh, been ages since I've seen them!"

They both looked down as Eden appeared behind them. Her face lit up and she grinned widely when she saw her uncle in the doorway. "Uncle Gabe!" she cheered and ran towards him. Gabriel caught her in his arms and pulled her up into a hug.

"Hey, kiddo! Damn, you've gotten a bit heavier since last time," Gabriel grinned and tickled her, causing the girl to laugh and squirm in his arms. He and Eden had a good relationship; he always bought her little presents and gave her a lot of attention, and she smiled widely every time she knew he was coming.

"I've got a present for you, sweetie," Gabriel told her after he put her down on the ground again.

Eden's face lit up with excitement. "Really? What is it, what is it?"

Gabriel laughed at her. "Impatient, are we?" He pulled his hand into his pocket and kneeled down next to her. He gently grabbed her hand before dropping a small keychain with a plush cat on it. The cat was white with large blue eyes, and it was exactly what Eden had wished for since she saw it in a magazine a few weeks ago.

"Da kitty! You got me da kitty!" she cheered happily and jumped. "Thank you, uncle Gabe!" She threw herself in his arms to hug him, and Gabriel grinned happily before Eden pulled back and hurried over to show the cat keychain to Jason. Jason had a similar keychain of a dog on his backpack, and Eden had been obsessed with toy keychains since she saw it.

"Jeez, you spoil her way too much, Gabe. It's not good for kids to get presents every time they see you," Dean told him and scowled at him.

"Well, I don't come by often, and I didn't have a present for her last time, so…" the angel shrugged.

Castiel appeared in the entrance hall after Eden had run back into the living room, and stared at his brother in surprise. "Gabriel?"

"Cassie!" Gabriel exclaimed, happily. He went over and pulled the younger angel into a warm hug. "Been so long, Cassie, I missed you."

Castiel smiled and hugged him back. It had been nearly two months since they last saw each other. Gabriel's band had been gaining a lot of success which made him very busy all the time. The band had been offered a contract and had been busy recording songs for their first album, which would be released in a month.

They entered the living room, and Eden came over to them and grinned up at Gabriel again. The angel chuckled at his niece and patted her head in affection.

"You must be a proud big sister now, huh?"

"Yep! But his poop really smells…" Eden grimaced.

"Eden!" Castiel scolded, while the others laughed.

Jo and Tom had gotten up and went to greet Gabriel as well. It had been almost a year since they had last seen each other – last time was on Dean's 28th birthday in January.

Jason didn't know Gabriel very well, and he hid a bit behind his mother while he observed the angel and his brown wings. Sometimes he was a bit shy around new people, especially non-human adults with wings. Although he hung out with Eden a lot, and thus also Dean and Castiel, he was still shy towards demons and angels that were strangers to him. His parents hoped it would change with time.

"So where is the new little guy? I haven't seen him yet," Gabriel asked afterwards, and looked at Castiel.

"He's napping, but he should wake up soon," Castiel smiled.

"How can he nap when I am dropping by?! I'm offended," Gabriel snorted. He pretended to be hurt, but they all knew he was just joking around.

The others chuckled and Castiel rolled his eyes at his brother, as usual.

"So how's your band doing, Gabe? I hear you got a contract," Jo asked as they all sat down on the couch again.

Dean and Castiel sat next to each other, Gabriel sat between Cas and Jo, and Tom was on Jo's other side. Eden was sitting in Castiel's lap while Jason was in Jo's lap, and the two leaned into their mothers (with Castiel being male but still actually Eden's mother) and looked at each other every now and then. The two children had been playing so much that they needed a small break and relax, and Eden was playing happily with her new keychain. Her tail curled and uncurled – a gesture that was normal for demons when they felt happy, sated, blissful or content.

"Oh, it's going awesome, but we've also been extremely busy. I don't think my employer at the uni really appreciates that… I may have to quit that job at some point, but I like it there," Gabriel muttered and pouted slightly.

"What was the name of your band again?" Tom asked.

Gabriel grinned. "'The Fallen Demigods'. Pretty cool name, huh?" he said and winked down at Jason, who was staring at him curiously.

"Yeah," Jason grinned and squirmed shyly.

"You must be making a lot of money then. Surely the girls dig that?" Jo smirked.

Gabriel laughed out loud. "Yep, they sure do. But we only meet fangirls and the trashy kind of girls on our tours, I'm afraid, and not much long-term relationship potential. Haven't had one of those since Kali." He looked a bit sad when he said it, and everyone knew he was still trying to get over his break-up with her. They had been together for years but had always argued. They all knew it bothered Gabriel that he and Kali hadn't been able to work it out.

There was a small uncomfortable silence, and Eden and Jason looked at each other in confusion when the mood changed for a few seconds. The sound of Adrian waking up and beginning to cry in the other room snapped them out of it. Dean and Castiel's parent instincts swelled up, and the angel gently handed Eden over to his mate.

"I'll go get him. Please hold Eden?"

"Sure. Come here, sweetie," Dean smiled and took Eden into his lap. The girl smiled happily and leaned into him, while Castiel got up and went to the nursery.

When Castiel returned with the baby he sat back down on the couch, and Gabriel leaned over to look at the baby curiously.

"Ohh, ain't he cute! Finally one that looks more like an angel," Gabriel chuckled. "And a tail! I bet all your kids will have tails, dude," he said, and glared over at Dean.

"There is nothing wrong with having a tail," Dean snapped lightly. He looked at Eden, who was cuddled against his chest. "Ain't that right, honey?"

Eden giggled when Dean kissed the top of her head. "I love my tail," she grinned and moved it around as if to demonstrate her point.

The others laughed, and they spent the rest of the day talking, watching the kids play, listening to Gabriel's jokes, and Castiel reminding his brother not to curse in front of the children. They had served their guests dinner which Dean and Castiel had prepared together earlier.

They left in the evening when the children were getting sleepy.

Both Eden and Jason were sad to say goodbye, but at the same time they were both very sleepy from all their playing. Knowing that they would see each other again soon kept them calm. Eden hugged Jason goodbye, while the boy tensed up and blushed like mad. He stepped back, trying to act like a boy again, and the others laughed at the scene while Eden looked confused.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

After putting Eden to bed, Castiel was comforting Adrian in the nursery while he was crying. He had just had a diaper change and food, so Castiel figured the baby was sleepy. He rocked Adrian in his arms and muttered soothing words at him, and eventually the baby's sobs calmed down and he stared up at his parent with wide, curious eyes.

Dean watched Castiel with the baby. The angel had always been good at calming their children down. Maybe it was his constant eye contact that relaxed them, since eye contact was important with babies. Dean smiled and approached when the angel put Adrian down in the crib and tucked him in.

"You managed to calm him down," Dean stated, and smiled down at his little son.

"Yes, I believe he was just tired," the angel smiled. The baby closed his eyes as soon as his head was on the small pillow, and Castiel put the baby monitor in place, stroked Adrian's cheek lovingly, and stepped back.

Dean grinned. "Let's go to bed?"

Castiel smiled and nodded, and they went to prepare themselves to go to sleep.

Castiel took his pill, washed his face, and slipped into the bed. He sighed as his body was finally resting on the comfortable bed, and he pulled the blanket over his body and snuggled into it. A few minutes later he heard Dean enter the bedroom and slip into bed next to him. His mate spooned up behind him and wrapped his arms around him.

Castiel sighed when Dean kissed his neck tenderly, and the angel closed his eyes to sleep. He had only just begun to doze off when he felt something poke his lower back. He felt Dean freeze behind him, and the bulge that was poking against his ass was unmistakable.

"Dean…"

"Sorry, Cas, I didn't mean for you to feel that," Dean winced and pulled back a little. His cock was half hard in his pants. He and Castiel hadn't had any sexual activities since Adrian's birth because they were both tired and the angel needed to recover.

"It's alright, Dean, I know how aroused you get after just a few days with no sex," Castiel chuckled lightly. He rolled around to face Dean, and the demon moved a bit to give him better space. Once he was facing his mate, his blue eyes searched Dean's green ones. One of the lamps on the nightstand was still glowing because Dean hadn't turned it off yet, so the room was slightly lit up.

"It'll go away soon," Dean told him.

"It doesn't have to." There was a slight hint of a smirk in the angel's voice.

Dean frowned and was about to ask him what he meant, when the angel's hand suddenly rubbed against his erection. The demon shivered and moaned, and his hips bucked into the hand on their own accord.

"Cas, you don't have to. You need to recover."

"I'm not going to take you inside me, Dean," Castiel assured him, and rubbed against the demon's cock again. "But I do want to pleasure you."

Dean groaned. The next thing the demon knew was Castiel rolling on top of him and claiming his lips in a kiss. Dean kissed him back eagerly, and felt the angel's hand travel into his boxers and grab his hardened cock firmly; his thumb teasing over the slit, making Dean moan and buck into his hand. The angel chuckled against his lips, and Dean swore he was being smug.

"Fuck, Cas," Dean groaned and grabbed the angel's slim hips as his mate sat on top of him, straddling him.

"Not quite, Dean, I'm not ready for that yet," Castiel murmured against Dean's lips. His hand kept touching the places on the demon's cock that were most sensitive, but without actually stroking him.

They were trying to keep their voices and moans down so that Eden wouldn't hear them.

The angel's wings were spread out as he sat on top of Dean and fondled his cock, and the demon appreciated the sight of the silken soft feathers moving elegantly whenever their owner moved.

Castiel's other hand moved over Dean's abdomen and his muscled stomach. The demon was sensitive there and he moaned under him. His breaths were increasing and his cock was throbbing, and Castiel could tell that all the demon wanted was to flip them over and have him, but he didn't.

"Nrrrgh, Cas," Dean growled in annoyance when the angel continued teasing him without really stimulating him properly.

Castiel chuckled and smiled at him in apology, before moving off of him. Dean frowned in frustration and confusion, but when Cas pulled down his underwear and wrapped his lips around his cock, he groaned in appreciation and bucked up into his mouth.

Castiel quickly put his hands on the demon's hips to hold him down, because it wasn't comfortable when he bucked into his mouth. Dean was big and wide, and it felt like he barely fit into Castiel's mouth as it was. So the angel held him down and started sucking, licking, and humming around the demon's throbbing dick. The taste of Dean was strong and masculine, and Castiel closed his eyes and purred in appreciation. His purr sent vibrations of pleasure through Dean's cock, and it didn't take long before the demon was pushed over the edge and shot his load into the angel's mouth. Castiel swallowed and eventually pulled off, catching his breath, and felt some of Dean's come run down his chin. He stroked his mate's cock through the rest of his orgasm.

"Fuck, that was amazing. As usual," Dean grinned and looked at him.

Castiel wiped some of the come off his chin with the back of his hand, and Dean's lustful eyes when he did so didn't go unnoticed by him. He yelped when Dean suddenly pulled him down on the bed and rolled on top of him, pressing him into the mattress.

He shuddered when Dean licked his chin clean of his own come before kissing him and tasting himself in Cas' mouth. Dean's hand rubbed over the angel's crotch and felt that he was hard and leaking. He snuck his hand inside the angel's underwear and took his dick in his hand began stroking him fast and firmly, causing Castiel to cry out in pleasure. Dean's other hand moved into the angel's feathers and grasped them tightly, making him gasp, before kissing and sucking at his neck which Castiel liked a lot.

"Dean!" Castiel sobbed out as he finally came all over Dean's hand. His mate stroked him through it, until they both collapsed on the bed next to each other. They wiped the come off their bodies with a towel that Dean kept next to the bed for such cases, before throwing it back on the floor.

They caught their breaths and looked at each other afterwards. They smiled and kissed, before pulling back to look at each other again.

"We forgot to lock the door…" Dean muttered.

Castiel tensed. He lifted his head and looked around the room. "Eden isn't in here," he sighed, relieved, and lay back down. "We have to be more careful, I don't want her to see or hear that." He looked at Dean firmly.

"Yeah, I know, but she's too young to understand it yet."

"I still don't want her to see it."

"You're right. She shouldn't see or do such stuff until she's at least 30 years old," Dean grinned and kissed Castiel again.

"I'd say 15… that's the minimum age of consent," Castiel spoke when they pulled away from the kiss.

"15?! No way! 18 at least, dude!"

Castiel chuckled and cuddled against his mate. Dean wrapped his arms around him and pet his wings in an affectionate gesture. Castiel purred against his chest and nuzzled against him.

"I think our kids are going to be fine, Cas. I'm just a bit worried about bullies when they start in school," Dean muttered.

"Even normal children can have bullies, Dean. We just have to do our best to support them…" Castiel sighed.

"Yeah, I know. I just can't stop worrying… But at least Eden has Jason. They're kinda like childhood sweethearts, aren't they?" Dean chuckled.

Castiel chuckled too. "Yes, they kind of are."

Dean kissed the top of the angel's head, before turning off the lights and lying down to sleep.

Author's notes: This chapter was tricky and I feel like it's kind of a filler. Chapter 3 should have more plot – and a time jump.

And my dear beta-reader, iloveanime9251, has tricked me – she was posting as a guest reviewer "destielisloveXD" when she suggested the title "Devoted" to me, so the idea of the title is actually hers. She completely had me fooled XD I should probably also mention that she sometimes suggests scenes to me, so a few of the scenes are based on her ideas :)

As I said before, I have projects and exams coming so I don't know how much time I will have to write on this story. Exams should be over in a month and then I can write all I want again.

And I am so glad to see many of you still reading the story! Thank you, it makes me so happy :D

Thanks for reading, please review ^^
