Summary
The scent was even thicker now that they had arrived at the chambers, so thick the room was drowning in it.
“This isn’t a beta’s scent” Gwen murmured as she opened the door. Gaius was nowhere to be scene nor was there any ill patients.
The king of Camelot strolled towards the private room in the back. It had been merlin’s room since the younger man had traveled to the castle and it was also the source of the smell.
Did he have an omega in there?
Arthur opened the door without knocking and was met with an interesting sight. There was an omega in there but it wasn’t someone else warming Merlin’s bed.
“Merlin!” Gwen gasped as she joined her husband, he turned to see her eyes wide and mouth opened like an o at the sight in front on them.
And oh it was a sight.
Merlin was presenting, three of his fingers stuffed in his slick leaking ass and the honeysuckle scent overwhelmed the entire room

Summary
Avalon—if there was ever a time for Albion’s greatest need, it was now.
The man who had silently guarded Albion, who had stood through every storm, every betrayal, every heartbreak, even when he was burned alive by the very people he had protected. And now, the same man was broken, desperate to die.
Arthur reached out. He felt the coldness of Avalon’s waters, the dampness creeping into his bones, but his hand—his hand was no longer empty. It was filled with the warmth of Merlin’s grip, the cold steel of Excalibur.
“Merlin,” Arthur’s voice broke through the silence, “this is your king’s command. You are not allowed to seek death.”

Summary
“Shut up!” he yells, and it’s right here where he makes the biggest mistake in Mercia’s visit.
Having your head smashed into a concrete wall isn’t something Merlin would recommend. “Don’t you fucking dare yell at me. Do you understand? How dare you be so insolent. You know, I was going to give you a small kick and be done with it, let the Prince deal with you himself as I’m sure he does. But no one disrespects me like that, boy. You hear me?”Merlin knows that Arthur doesn't truly hurt him because he wants to, he knows that the prince is just used to horseplay. Merlin also knows that Arthur would never beat him, or any servant for that matter, and he's secure in his knowledge of that. Visiting knights, however, seem to have a different idea of what happens behind closed doors, especially when they see all the things Arthur throws at his servant. So, if the prince can hurt Merlin, why can't they?

Summary
Somehow, as if by magic or the rules of a fairytale, Merlin did not wake up alone. Not on a cold dungeon’s floor, not even in his own room.
Here he was, lying in, perhaps, the softest bed he’d ever been on. His chest to an impossibly plush comforter, his cheek smushed against something harder and warmer than the usual pillow.
Merlin’s eyes tried to blink awake with revelation but couldn’t in the face of such formidable comfort.
