Summary
In the aftermath of a brief physical encounter between the two of them, Merlin's touch haunts Arthur.
As Arthur wakes up, the feeling does not evade him, choosing instead to hold his heart in a painful grasp. When he turns his head, Merlin is still here, his figure standing out in contrast with the morning sun. It sets aflame the upperskin of his ears, and Arthur grapples with the sudden desire to reach out and touch. But Merlin is too far away, remaining unreachable and Arthur's heart breaks a little.

Summary
In many ways, things are the same as ever.
It’s only… Well, back when Merlin still had things like secrets, or privacy, or self-respect, he would have thought that of the secrets, the magic would have been the one to truly catch Arthur’s interest.
But no. It’s the other secret that Arthur picks and plucks at.

“Do you believe in ghosts?” Arthur blurts.
Merlin laughs without missing a beat. “You’ve been watching too many scary movies,” he teases, and leaves it at that.
It doesn’t answer Arthur’s question.

Summary
Business magnate Uther Pendragon has died, and his son is horrified to learn that he had properties filled with furniture, art, and books. One property's library is filled with rare and antique books, prompting Gaius to call in Merlin Emrys, an expert on the matter who can help appraise the collection.
Arthur is forced to stay in the middle of nowhere in Belgium with Merlin and Gaius while this gets sorted. He can deal with his godfather, but the bookseller irritates him to no end. He is absolutely not at all interested in the insolent man.
--
This is a romantic comedy about Arthur dealing with grief, an egg-smashing bookseller, his batty godfather, and coping with being stuck in the middle of Belgium with all three of those things.
