Author's Summary: The plan was for Jensen to infiltrate the ranch as the President's slave, get security data out and his team of ruthless mercenaries in. It wasn't supposed to involve the President's bratty teenage son. Nowhere had he read the line about becoming Jared's personal slave. It wasn't supposed to get messy and personal, but then it did, and a violent act of revenge would put them both on a long journey to redemption. It can be a fine line between hatred and love, and once you cross it, then maybe gravity can pull you together in the end.
Reccer's notes: This is a wonderfully complex and gripping read. Jared and Jensen are multifaceted characters, neither all good nor all bad, and their relationship is complicated and messy. They both behave wretchedly at times while remaining generally sympathetic. They each have much to atone for but there are no easy solutions or quick fix-its here, and any measure of redemption they achieve is hard-won.
[Short excerpt]JD gave an exasperated growl, “It’s fixed. Your name is Jensen Ackles. You are self-sold with pro-President sympathies. Your training was quick, willing and easy, and your sister is Padalecki's insurance. When you negotiate your loyalty price you should aim for half your slave price. Any less, and the President gets jumpy. We do want you to keep your tongue. Any more, and he'll pass you over as greedy. Your life is between these covers, so learn it well.” He flicked a file to Ross, who nodded his acknowledgment, opened it and started to read.
