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.

Summary
Harry Potter has been hiding in plain sight all his life, since he carries the soul-mark of Minister Tom Riddle on his arm—and a fulfilled soul-bond will double both partners’ power. His parents and godfather are fugitives, members of the Order of the Phoenix, and Harry is a junior Ministry official feeding the Order what information he can. No one, least of all him, expects Harry to come to the sudden notice of Minister Riddle, or be drawn into a dangerous game of deception.

Summary
Harry is removed from the Dursley family when he is eight years old, and enters the wizarding world a few years younger and a lot wiser. He discovers a surprising dark heritage, and develops goals that do not involve vanquishing a certain Dark Lord or becoming the Chosen One. Adopted into the Black family, Harry will fight against the expectation that he is to defeat the Dark Lord and instead dedicates himself to protecting the dark legacy that has been left to him.

Summary

Then, it all turns even weirder. Hogwarts, magic, a Headmaster and a Dark Lord await Harry - he would prefer if they all just left him alone, thank you very much.
But when has it ever mattered what Harry wants?

Summary
A world with no Dursleys was a world Harry Potter was bound and determined to stay in. To do that, Harry Potter wanted to be great. To have every opportunity the wizarding world could offer. So, he used the Restricted Section. He learned. He studied with Hermione, made friends, and did his best to have a normal, happy childhood. Anything so he would never have to go back.
But when a troll was released his first year, when he was betrayed in the Chamber of Secrets by Lockhart, and when every adult in his life failed him, that was when Harry and his friends knew the adults couldn't be trusted. They'd been burned one too many times. Then, when Voldemort returned, they had no reason to believe that would change. Harry and his friends would survive.
History was filled with great wizards of distinct moral alignment: Voldemort, Grindelwald, Herpo the Foul; even Merlin walked a dubious line. No one with purely good intentions would expand their power so outrageously. Harry hoped he could be the first. Because he knew if he was going to stop Voldemort and protect his friends, he needed to inherit that legacy of power.
Harry Potter was hungry for control.
