Castiel’s hope for freedom is threatened by a chance encounter with the Crowned Prince of Lawrence, who is trying to avoid an arranged marriage. A Cinderella/Ever After AU. Written for the Dean/Cas Big Bang 2015 with art by kamicom. Fic masterlist with links to art at http://museaway.livejournal.com/1013948.html Caution: This includes references to servitude, because it's based on a movie set in Renaissance-era France. There is on-page corporeal punishment in one scene and reference to past abuse. I think it's melancholy. It's not my usual style; I wrote it in what I hope reads a bit like a fairytale since it's based on one.

Dean Winchester spends his hours as the local mechanic, but in his free time he slices and kills. His own brother is working the case to find this killer. Cain is what they call him and Dean relishes in it. His next victim is accountant Castiel Novak, or so he thinks. Dean may not be able to go through with this one. This man has caught Dean's eyes and maybe even his heart.

Another town, another case, another school. It was the usual cycle of the life of Dean Winchester. However this time around on an unplanned trip to the library Dean meets someone who changes everything... Dean meets Castiel
