Summary
Since Merlin and Cenred had split up, Arthur didn't think he'd ever have to see the long-haired, greasy, self-obsessed idiot ever again. But then Cenred announced he was getting married. And invited Merlin to the wedding.
Merlin can't turn up by himself and look like a sad loser. And Arthur's his best friend. Best friends help each other, right? Well, they will if Morgana has anything to do with it.

Summary
It has been less than a week since Merlin came back to Camelot with damaged vocal cords and an agonizing throat. A patchwork of bruises, colours of the sky during a storm and violets in full bloom have appeared on Merlin’s throat. Some of them are the shape of fingers. Others are vague, and meander across his skin with all the direction and purpose of clouds.

Summary
As Arthur takes a careful step forward, sword drawn, the dragon draws its head closer to its body. Its eyes are flitting around restlessly, shifting from one Knight to another — from one sword or lance to the other. It shies away from him, tries to take a few steps back, but it hits a wall of trees and shrubs and is forced to stop.
“Stand your ground,” Arthur commands, not once taking his eyes off the dragon. He moves in even closer, goading the creature into attacking him. He can hear Leon restlessly moving from one foot to another, ready to jump in at the first sign that something is about to go wrong, but he needs not worry. This isn’t the first time Arthur’s faced off against a dragon, and he has no intention of it being his last.

Summary
“Merlin, what is in your hair?” Gaius asks - rather judgmentally, Merlin thinks. It’s not as though Gaius can turn into a bird, making his opinion irrelevant. Everyone’s opinions shall now be irrelevant to him unless they can turn into birds, he decides. He puts a hand to his hair and feels a leaf.
(So this is a very canon-inaccurate sort of re-telling, with some big divergences, minus a dragon or prophecy or two)

Summary
“It was never supposed to end like this. You were both meant for such happier things.”
“I was always meant to be a tragedy.” Arthur disagrees.
“Dearest darling, you are the king of kings, this will not be your end.”
With Arthur's death comes a single chance to go back to the beginning and save everyone he's ever loved. Seeing home in Merlin's eyes and a hope for a better world in Morgana's, Arthur knows what he must do.
Only bringing magic back to Camelot will prevent the future he knows is coming from happening, but in his way is the only mountain he's never been able to climb; his father won't change for anyone, not even for his son.

Summary
The Pendragons have been cursed with lycanthropy for generations. Only, it isn't a curse. It is a gift, given to the Pendragons in thanks for saving a fairy's life.
Uther blamed the arcane for the "curse" and banned all arcane beings. As King, Arthur welcomed back druids, werewolves, and fey with open arms. He has a loyal pack, and now he has Merlin. A druid specially trained to tether werewolf packs to humanity.
But being a werewolf has earned Arthur powerful enemies, and there is a traitor in the Pack.
Arthur is bleeding out. Merlin must make a choice. Either save the man he loves, or stop the traitor. In the end, there is no choice.
Enemy troops are on the move: Odin and Cenred have joined forces with a group referring to themselves as Ferræden of Déaþ Wulf. They are preparing to lay siege to Camelot.
With Arthur still healing from the most recent attempt on his life and the traitor selling Camelot's secrets to Odin, defending Camelot is impossible. There is only one option. Evacuate the citadel. Seek refuge with allies.
A desperate last stand leads to a powerful potential ally beyond the realm of man. It might be The Pack's only chance to save their home.

Summary
“I was wondering if you might come home with me.” Merlin stops mid-rant and stares at him, and then down at his panini again, and back at Arthur. This is a panini of lies and pain. He can tell already.
“For Christmas? I’ve got an uncle and a mother and a sister waiting for me at home, in case you hadn’t remembered, I’m not going home with you just because you’re a workaholic.”
“No, it’s. My mum might be under the impression that we’re a little bit married.”
In which Merlin gets conned into spending Christmas with Arthur's family and pretending to be his husband, because somehow this is his life.

Summary
"Congratulations, Mr Pendragon; a fine purchase.”
And just like that all air was sucked from Merlin’s lungs. Purchase. He had been sold. Bought. And bought meant—
“If you would follow me, Mr Pendragon, there are some final procedures to complete in order to finalise your transaction; Mr Aredian will see to you momentarily. I hope you brought an iron seal of your family crest for the branding?”
—branded.——
In a city of copper and steam, the life of Arthur Pendragon takes a turn when he finds himself inexplicably mesmerised by a slave in iron shackles on the market stage. His name; Merlin.
Over the five years since his capture, Merlin has only been sure of one thing; that nobody can afford him. But then, nobody is as rich as a Pendragon.Series

Summary
Navigating life events that turn his world upside down, including his ascension to the throne and a revelation that rocks him to his core, Arthur's ever-evolving relationship with Merlin becomes the most important of his life. No one ever said love was easy.
“I would die before I hurt you,” Arthur said, his voice strangled. “I would kill anyone who ever tried to do you harm and it pains me to think that you could ever fear me.”
“I don’t understand,” Merlin said breathlessly. “You’re the king, you – ”
“I’m not standing here as a king, Merlin!” Arthur shouted, his voice breaking as he did so. “I’m standing here as a man, a man who believed he knew you completely, a man who thought you were the one constant in his life, a man who thought…who thought you were his,” he finished, horrified to feel tears pricking his eyes.
