Castiel’s P.O.V

Damien’s lips move on top of mine in a sweet, lazy kiss that makes my toes curl and butterflies erupt in my stomach.

As the kiss finally breaks, the world feels slower and quieter. The warm, salty air seems to be still, and for the briefest of moments, I’m caught in a bubble—just me and Damien, surrounded by nothing but the hum of our hearts. My chest rises and falls with every breath, trying to catch up with the whirlwind of emotions that’s flooded through me. My mind still can’t fully process everything, but I know one thing for certain: I’ve never felt this real, this alive, in a long time.

But then, the weight of everything we’ve gone through presses down on me, and I can’t hold it back anymore. I pull back slightly, my hands still resting on his chest, my fingers curling into the fabric of his shirt as I search his eyes. The tenderness in his gaze only makes everything ha

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe car hums softly as Damien pulls it back into the familiar parking spot in front of the restaurant. I glance at him, my heart still racing from everything we’ve shared, everything that’s come to light between us. It feels surreal, the whole thing, like the world has shifted into a place where, for once, I’m not running from anything.It’s strange how circumstances were so different when I left with Damien, and now, things between us had changed drastically, and for the better.As we step out of the car and walk toward the entrance of the restaurant, I can’t help but feel a twinge of nervousness in my chest. The memories of the past week—the confusion, the betrayal, the pain—are still fresh, and I can’t shake the feeling that things aren’t going to be easy. Not with everyone here.But as we push through the door, the usual noise of clattering plates and soft cha

    Castiel’s P.O.V The drive back to Damien’s mansion feels surreal, like the world outside the car is moving at a different pace than the whirlwind that’s going on inside my mind. With Celia and Tanner beside me, I can hardly focus on the road ahead. My thoughts keep drifting back to everything that’s happened—the confessions, the ring, the promise of a future with Damien. I’m still struggling to fully process it, to understand that I’m no longer just *Castiel*. I’m *Damien’s fiancé*.It’s still hard to believe, even now.As the car slows to a stop in front of the mansion, I blink, trying to make sense of the scene unfolding before me. I never thought I’d be here like this, with so many eyes on me and so many guards standing at attention, all bowing as we make our way to the entrance. I had barely processed the idea of Damien’s lifestyle, but now, seeing it firsthand,

  • The Kingpin's Captive (Omegaverse)   Chapter 117: Truth About Elijah

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe air in Damien’s room feels thick with the weight of everything left unsaid. He watches me closely as I take a deep breath, trying to collect my thoughts. There’s a lot I’ve been holding back, and if we’re going to be completely open with each other, I know I can’t keep these things inside any longer. This conversation has to happen, no matter how difficult.“Damien,” I begin, my voice a little shaky. “I have to tell you something. It’s about Elijah.”I see the way Damien’s posture shifts, the way his shoulders tense ever so slightly. He’s been patient, waiting for me to speak, but I can tell that just mentioning Elijah’s name brings a certain unease to him.“The party…it wasn’t the first time I saw Elijah.” I told him, my voice trembling slightly. “It was somewhere else…a long time before the party.

  • The Kingpin's Captive (Omegaverse)   Chapter 118: Truths left Unspoken

    Castiel’s P.O.V I could feel my stomach twist as soon as Damien mentioned Gabriel's name. Just the sound of it made something inside me tighten, a familiar knot I had hoped to bury forever. I knew Gabriel’s history with Damien, and I knew the trouble he had caused—how he tried to get between us, tried to drive a wedge where none existed. My gut reaction was to close off and shut down, but I couldn’t. I had to hear him out.Damien’s eyes were soft, but his lips pressed into a thin line as if he, too, knew this conversation would go nowhere good. He paused for a moment, seeming to weigh his words carefully, the way he always did before he dropped a bomb on me.“Castiel,” he said, his voice low, almost hesitant, “Gabriel... he’s a Seer.”A Seer. I blinked, trying to wrap my head around it. I’d heard of Seers before—those rare omegas who could glimpse the future in flashes, though their visions were often unpredictable. Inaccurate, too, from what I remembered.It was a dangerous power, a

    Castiel’s P.O.VBut the comfort that Damien’s arms provided was short-lived because my mind went back to what he had told me just moments earlier.‘Gabriel came to me.’Gabriel came to him? What exactly did that mean?Pulling back slightly, I stared at Damien, my mind reeling, trying to make sense of what he just told me. The echoes of his words sank in slowly, like stones settling in the pit of my stomach. Gabriel had caused the misunderstanding between us. Gabriel. The name alone sent a rush of emotions through me, a mixture of anger, betrayal, and... confusion.Then how could Damien trust him again?"Is that really how you found me?" I asked, my voice quieter than I meant it to be, but the words still felt heavy, like they were too much to carry.Damien's expression softened, a glint of something crossing his eyes—tiredness, maybe. "Yeah," he said, his tone steady but with an edge that

    Castiel’s P.O.VI was speechless. I stared at Damien, struggling to wrap my mind around what he’d just said. My brain felt like it was trying to piece together a puzzle with missing pieces, but it was beyond me. Damien and Elijah were related? It didn’t make sense. Damien was cool, calm, collected—everything that Elijah wasn’t. And yet, here he was, telling me something that felt like a cruel joke."Wait, what? Damien, you can’t be serious," I managed to stammer, my heart pounding in my chest. My voice was hoarse, like the shock had drained all the moisture from my throat.Damien let out a long sigh, the kind of exhale that suggested he’d been having this conversation in his head for far too long. He leaned back in his chair, folding his arms across his chest, and fixed his gaze on me. His eyes were unreadable, but there was a flicker of something I couldn’t quite place. Regret? Sympathy? A mix of

  • The Kingpin's Captive (Omegaverse)   Chapter 121: Moving Forward Without Fear

    Castiel’s P.O.VI listened in silence, letting Damien’s words sink in. The complexity of the bond between him and Elijah began to take shape in my mind, a twisted tangle of past events, pain, and unspoken grudges. I could see now that it wasn’t just a rivalry built on power or status—it was something far deeper, far more personal. Both of them were victims in their own ways, but in the end, it was their refusal to understand each other that had driven them to where they were now.Elijah could have been an ally, I thought. He could have stood beside Damien, two powerful forces working together. Instead, he had chosen a path of blame, one that cast Damien as the villain in a tragedy that was never his fault. It wasn’t fair, but nothing about their situation ever had been. I couldn’t help but wonder how different things could have been if Elijah had simply seen the bigger picture.The silence stretched between us

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe night air was cool, a gentle breeze rustling the leaves around the pool as I sat there, letting my thoughts drift. The soft glow of the water reflected the lights of the estate, casting a peaceful glow over the surroundings. The buzz of activity from the house had quieted, leaving only the hum of crickets and the occasional rustling of the leaves in the wind.Damien had retreated back to his office after dinner, diving into business as usual. It was almost like a routine for him, though I knew it was more than that. He had a lot on his shoulders, and sometimes I wondered if he ever allowed himself to just relax. But for now, he was doing what he did best—keeping everything running smoothly, making sure the empire he built didn’t falter.I leaned back against the edge, the soft sound of the water lapping at the edge of the pool soothing in its own way. There was a part of me that couldn’t shake the weig

    Castiel’s P.O.VTwo years later, life had settled into a rhythm. The quiet days of simply living with Damien were now filled with the soft cooing of a little girl, our little girl. Our journey to parenthood hadn’t been the traditional one, but it had been ours, and in the end, that was all that mattered.The decision to pursue surrogacy had been one we made together after countless conversations, sleepless nights, and more than a few tears. It was the right choice, and as I watched Damien cradling our daughter in his arms, I couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed with emotion.She was perfect. Her tiny hands curled into fists as Damien gently rocked her back and forth, her face still scrunched up in that adorable, baby-like confusion. His deep voice hummed a soft tune as he cooed to her, trying to get her to focus on him. The sight of him like this—so gentle, so tender—always made my heart skip. He had become a complete

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe soft murmur of waves filled the air, a rhythmic lull that blended with the distant chatter of guests. A salty breeze carried the scent of the ocean, mingling with the fragrance of fresh roses and lilies. As I stood at the entrance of the resort’s private beach, my heart pounded in my chest. The sight before me was breathtaking.The ceremony space was set on a wide wooden deck extending toward the shoreline. Fairy lights draped overhead, twinkling like stars against the deepening hues of the sunset sky. Rows of white chairs lined either side of the aisle, each adorned with delicate golden ribbons that fluttered gently in the evening breeze. The path itself was covered in a thin layer of ivory rose petals, leading to a grand arch at the end, wrapped in white silk and lush greenery. Soft lanterns cast a golden glow around the space, their reflections dancing on the surface of the water.“You okay?&r

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe urgency in Damien’s voice had struck me in a way I couldn’t shake off. My heart was already racing as I stood up, the sudden sense of unease creeping up my spine. Without thinking, I turned toward the door and started walking briskly toward the main hall. Stephan was right behind me, his footsteps quick, the same uncertainty in his voice when he asked, “What happened? What did Damien say?”“I don’t know,” I replied quickly, glancing over my shoulder at him. “But his voice sounded…urgent. He said he needed me now.”We reached the entrance to the main hall, and I threw open the door without hesitation. The first thing I noticed was the oppressive darkness inside. The room was completely black, the absence of light making it feel heavier, like a weight pressing down on my chest. My confusion spiked, and I called out for Damien, my voice echoing in the silence.

  • The Kingpin's Captive (Omegaverse)   Chapter 150: Didn’t Expect This

    Castiel’s P.O.VFour months had passed, and yet the night air still carried a faint scent of flowers, a quiet reminder that the world continued on, indifferent to the storms we had weathered. The soft ripple of the pool’s water mirrored the calm that had settled over us, though the memories of everything that had transpired still lingered in the back of my mind.I dipped my feet into the cool water, the sensation grounding me, helping me to keep my thoughts from drifting too far back. The quiet evening wrapped around us, the hum of insects and distant voices blending into the background. Stephan sat beside me, just as he always had, and for a moment, it felt like things were returning to normal, even if the world we inhabited was anything but.“I never imagined I’d get the chance to do this again,” Stephan said, his voice breaking the stillness. He kicked his feet gently in the water, his eyes reflecting a sense of

    Castiel’s P.O.VIt had been two weeks since Damien’s surgery, and though he was much more stable now, the hollow look in his eyes told me there was still a storm brewing inside of him. He hadn’t spoken much since we’d come out of his cabin. Even now, as I wheeled him down the sterile, cold hospital hallway, he was quiet—distant in a way that told me he was bracing himself for something he couldn’t control.I pushed the wheelchair slowly, keeping my eyes forward, not daring to look at him, knowing how the weight of everything that was about to happen must be pressing down on him. I could feel the tension radiating from him, thick and suffocating. When we reached Elijah’s room, my heart sank. This would be the first time I had ever stepped inside it, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready for what I was about to witness.I don’t think anyone could be prepared for such a sight.The room was dim

    Damien’s P.O.VI woke up with a start, my body jerking forward as I gasped for air, the thick, acrid smell of smoke and fire still clinging to my senses like a suffocating blanket. My surroundings were unfamiliar, the sterile smell of the room replaced by the sharp sting of burned flesh and charred memories.The headache pounding in my skull was the first thing I felt, sharp and unrelenting, followed by an overwhelming wave of pain that made every inch of my body ache like it had been battered by a thousand blows.Where the hell am I?I tried to focus, blinking against the blurry haze that clouded my vision, but it only made the throbbing in my head worse. My thoughts were a mess, disjointed, like broken glass scattered across the floor. I tried to remember what had happened, but it was all a blur of fire, power, and chaos.Elijah.The clash of our powers, the explosion of energy that ripped through the air, followed by the suffocating burn that began to eat away at my skin. It was li

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe harsh fluorescent lights above flickered slightly, casting a sterile glow over the waiting room as I sat there, my new mechanical fingers nervously drumming against the cold armrests of the wheelchair. My back ached from the prolonged stillness, but I barely noticed. I could hardly think of anything except the pounding in my chest and the fear that gnawed at my insides.Twelve hours. Twelve damn hours Damien had been in that operating room. And I was still here, waiting. The kind of waiting that gnawed at your soul, twisted every thought into something darker, something more uncertain. I had to know he was going to be okay. I had to hear it.Stephan, who’d been standing beside me like a constant presence, was leaning against the wall. His arms were folded, his face more composed than I could manage, but his eyes betrayed the same worry. After a long moment, I finally spoke, my voice hoarse, more fragile than I’d intended.“Do you think everything will be alright?”

    Castiel’s P.O.VI collapsed back onto the bed, the weight of everything pressing down on me. My body ached, my mind was a fog, and I felt like I hadn’t had a single moment to breathe in weeks. The losses, the endless mess—why did it all have to spiral out of control? I stared at the ceiling, my hands gripping the edge of the blanket like I could physically hold the world together if I tried hard enough.“This could’ve all been avoided,” I muttered aloud, my voice barely a whisper in the room. “If only that stupid fool, Elijah, hadn’t let his rage and selfishness consume him and done things the damn hard way... He brought everyone down with him.”I wasn’t expecting an answer, but Stephan, ever the optimist, couldn’t stay silent for long.“Well, every cloud has a silver lining, Castiel,” he said in his usual tone, one that tried to make everything seem better than it was. “You just need to find it. You’ll see, there’s always something good in all this chaos. You just need to believe it.

    Castiel’s P.O.VThe first thing I register is the rhythmic beeping of a monitor, steady and unrelenting, echoing in my skull like a distant drum. Then comes the pain. A deep, bone-deep ache that spreads through my entire body, sharp and unforgiving. Every breath is a struggle; each inhale sends waves of discomfort rippling through me. My eyelids feel impossibly heavy, but I force them open, blinking against the harsh fluorescent lights above. A blur of motion. Voices. “He’s awake!” Footsteps shuffle around me, and suddenly, a group of nurses floods my vision. Someone adjusts the IV drip attached to my arm. Another presses a cool hand against my forehead. Everything feels too loud, too bright. “Where…?” My voice is hoarse, barely more than a whisper. My throat feels raw, like I’ve swallowed sandpaper. “What happened?” “Mr. Castiel James, please don’t move too much,” a nurse says, her tone firm but gentle. “You’ve been through extensive surgery. Try to stay still.” Surgery? I att
