    Summary

    What starts as an ordinary, miserable day for Castiel—bullied by his brother and struggling to fit in—takes a nightmarish turn. Injured, enslaved, and sold to the obscenely wealthy Luther Shrike, he resigns himself to a life of silent obedience. But within Shrike’s household, among fellow captives who refuse to be broken, Castiel finds something unexpected: a family.

    Meanwhile, Dean Winchester’s world is shrinking. His mother is dying, the bills are piling up, and every option has run dry. When his friend Kevin offhandedly mentions that his rich boss recently acquired an angel, Dean latches onto the only thing that still makes sense—hope. If there’s even a chance this creature can heal his mom, he has to try.

    But nothing goes according to plan. A single desperate choice throws Castiel and Dean’s lives into chaos, binding their fates in ways neither of them could have imagined. And now, with powerful forces closing in, freedom may come at a cost neither of them is ready to pay.
