    Summary

    There's something… different about Dexter.

    It isn't until she walks into Dexter's lab, a basket of food in her arms in preparation for a shared lunch, that she understands.

    She doesn't understand at all, actually. Dexter has never— he's supposed to be— but the wave of wantdesireprotect is so strong, she can't mistake it for anything else.

    Dexter is going into heat.

    Summary

    She’d know his shoulders, how he carries himself, his walk – there’s a sort of limp to his walk, but she’d know him anywhere.

    This isn’t just some stranger.

    This is her brother.

    This is Dexter.

    He’s alive.

    Summary

    Astor loved Dexter. But as she grew older, she started to notice things.

    Cracks in his image that she felt alone in seeing. Sure, he worked for the police department, but were those extended work hours really necessary? The longer he was in their lives, the later he came home. It still happened even after Harrison was born. Something was consuming him, something he viewed as more important than his family—her family—and she never got the chance to discover what it was.

    Astor ruminates on the curious actions of her stepfather, especially after seeing a familiar face in a newspaper about certain events in New York.

    I've decided to try my version and continuation of this series as it's been on my mind, while waiting for any updates.
    This is my version.

    I do not owe Dexter or the franchise.
