Summary
After finding a nest occupying his bed, Arthur figures out pretty quickly that Merlin, his blissfully unware omega, will be entering heat soon. Domestic fluff ensues as the caring alpha prepares them for the days ahead.

Summary
Merlin doesn't hate omegas, he just hates himself. As a doctor, he advocates for equality and self-expression in the omega community, but limits his heats to single beds and thin blankets. He is not soft. He is not pretty. He's worked too damn hard to be respected, and will not allow casual sex with an alpha turn into something more. He will not let Arthur Pendragon walk into his life and mess everything up, and that includes his nest.

Summary
Arthur always thought that no matter the secrets Merlin so clearly kept, Arthur knew him.
And maybe he’s a fool; maybe he’s as naïve and unsuspecting as his father and Morgana both liked to claim him to be, but in that second—in that second where he stares into cold, unfamiliar eyes that have nothing on Merlin, he finds that he still believes it.
In theory, it's the perfect plan. Who better to impersonate to get close to the newly crowned king than the King's personal manservant, the court physician's apprentice—Emrys himself?
In reality, though—in reality, Arthur knows Merlin far better than anyone would've expected, down to the fact that Merlin is keeping secrets. Neither Merlin nor Arthur thought they would be revealed like this, but when all is said and done, it's probably the best outcome of an assassination attempt anyone could ask for.

Summary
“How can one man be so stupid!”
If this sentence didn´t refer to Arthur Pendragon, then it would most likely describe his father.
And in this context –
Well let´s just say there was only one person who would talk this ill about the king and get away with it without being put in the stocks.Alternatively:
Uther decided that Arthur needs a manservant who can actually protect him. So obviously he lets the servants fight one another to determine who deserved the honor.
They have one month to prepare, but Arthur just can´t find a moment to ask Merlin to participate.
Until he sees Merlin´s strongest opponent and decides it´s probably better if he doesn´t.
Like that would stop Merlin. :3Series

Summary
“I’m the king,” Arthur says grumpily, swallowing around the stone that has settled in his throat, “I can wear what I want.”
“What about what I want?”
“I’m the king,” Arthur repeats slowly, since Merlin is being particularly thick, “and so you can also wear what I want.”
Or, Arthur dresses Merlin, which goes about as well as you would expect.

Summary
Merlin and his soulmate started hearing one another’s voices when Merlin was eight.
The first time it happened, Merlin didn’t think anything of it. He just had a dream about a big, wide open space in the sky where another voice said to him What are you doing here?
And Merlin said I belong here.

Summary
“Is it so hard to believe that I assumed at least one of you would take my side? That one of the men I call family would believe in me? That someone would fight for me? Say no, Arthur would never kill Merlin?” His voice began rising, agony taking over his need to shut his body down. “Is it so hard to believe?” he yelled into the otherwise quiet forest. “That I wanted someone to take my side? That someone would love me first?” Arthur tore his gaze away from Leon, “that I wanted one person in this whole fucking kingdom to love me?”
Or
Arthur saw Merlin use his magic and has to deal with realizing every one of his most trusted knights -his family- all believed that he would kill Merlin.- Language:
