Summary
I read (devoured) "Alone" by the extraordinary Salchat, and wondered how Dean came to be where he was at the start of the story. This is my attempt to answer that question.
Dean Winchester is employed as a domestic facilitator at the prestigious Sandover Corporation. He's survived an unstable childhood, a neglectful father, and a rigorous omega training program, but he's safe, happy, and proud of his service to the Alphas and betas who come to visit. It's not ideal because some of his guests are nicer than others, but he has a place in the world, and he'll do anything to keep it. Unfortunately, it's not up to him. As always, Alphas do what they want...and omegas suffer the consequencs.

Summary
In 1650 BC, a violent explosion decimated the Greek island of Santorini. For millennia, experts have agreed the destruction was caused by a catastrophic volcanic eruption, one of the largest in human history.

Summary
Ten months after a traumatic experience leaves his daughter mute, single father Castiel Novak decides to heed the advice of Claire's therapist and get out of the city for a while. Obsessed with My Little Pony, Claire begs to go to "a pony farm" and, well, Castiel will do just about anything to make his little girl smile. A quick Google search later and he's booked a three month stay at Winchester Family Farm.
Neither Castiel nor Claire knew what to expect when they arrived at the farm, but it certainly wasn't a gorgeous, green eyed cowboy who knows ASL and has a penchant for collecting orphaned animals. Nor were they expecting the entire Winchester clan to make them part of the family. But that's exactly what happens, and it isn't long before Castiel realizes that not only is Claire healing, but he is as well.
A story about hope, healing, and finding home.

Summary
‘Alpha Needed: Looking for an alpha with a calming scent, preferably mated, for scenting purposes. Twice a week, one hour. Pay: $20 per hour plus expenses.’
In order to get his anxiety attacks under control, Cas is supposed to regularly scent an alpha whose scent makes him feel safe.
Dean could really use the extra cash and the ad sounds like the easiest 20 bucks an hour Dean has ever made.
But then things get complicated…

Summary
The last time Dean was in Chicago, he and Cas flew Baby up to the highest perch they could find in the crumbling skeletons of the ancient skyscrapers. They lay out on her flight-warm wings, and Cas pointed out the stars and the suborbital Academy to him, their fingertips curled together.
Dean, well, he was more interested in other things. Namely, Cas.
That was eight years ago.
Today should be the highlight of Dean's career as a racer. He's the only non-corporate flyer to be seeded for the Chicago track. He might not have racing implants glowing down the sides of his face, but he's got a full belly, his Impala 2067 primed and charged, and the biggest damned race on Terra to win. Everything from the skies and stars on down should be going his way.
But that's just not how Winchester luck goes.

Summary
Castiel Allen is a social failure. But his grandmama, Lady Celeste Novak, is determined to establish him in society so that he can embark on a political career. After a spectacular disaster at the event of the Season, Lady Celeste decides to take charge.
“I know that you have many good qualities Castiel, but we are both aware that those good qualities seldom show themselves in company...”
Castiel is silent now, one scone still remaining untouched on his plate, his tea growing cold.
Celeste sits up a little straighter and smooths the silk skirts over her knees. “And so I have made a decision.” She pins Castiel with her gaze, like a collector might pin a butterfly. “I will select an omega bride for you.”
His gaze whips up from the hearthrug and his mouth falls open.
“You will marry,” she says, her jaw set firmly against any protestations. “ And then you can finally take up your place as my heir.”

But the warm sunshine of their Honeymoon does not follow Dean and Castiel back to the grey, dreary Lebanon House. And as his husband reverts to family traditions, Dean struggles with his duties and his relationship, and especially with the ghost of his predecessor, Amara.

Summary
Dean has never been alone.
In the forest, he’s terrified.
It’s dark. He’s in the forest. And he’s alone.
His shirt and pants are thin, his shoes designed for carpet and varnished wood. Out here, everything is sharp and hard and cold. Dean shivers. Branches prickle and scratch but he pushes further into them anyway; a small animal trying to hide.
He is alone. And he’s never been alone, never ever ever.
