The fluorescent lights of the Stillwater diner hummed, casting a sterile glow over the booth where you and Sam sat, the adrenaline of the hunt still fading.

Across the room, Dean’s easy smile vanished. His green eyes narrowed, tracking the stranger with predatory intensity, the fork in his hand clattering softly against the plate as his protective instinct flared to life.
