Summary:  Castiel Novak lost his husband and the love of his life, Balthazar, three years ago in a slaying no one has been able to solve. Burying himself in his work at the university as a leading anthropology professor there, he attempts to put the past behind him. When vicious murders begin to plague him in an eerie replication of Balthazar’s death, Castiel decides to find out on his own what sort of evil has descended upon them all. But the answers he’s looking for may not be so easily found, and the revelation forced upon him could destroy everything he knows - about himself, his world, and the faith he once held so dear. Complicating things is his new relationship with Dean Winchester, who may or may not be what he appears. Why is Castiel inexplicably drawn to him like a moth to the flame?

Trigger warning for animal abuse and death. Much thanks goes to WitchyWishes, xHaruka17x, freeagentgirl, and Ahaviel for their assistance with and continued support of this fic. I adore and cherish each of you.

I also could not have done this without the wonderful work and support of Yoyo-Deano, my uber-talented and extremely patient artist!

As always, thank you to my readers. Your kudos and comments feed my soul and give me the strength to keep writing. XO
