    Summary

    “I’m here.” Arthur heard himself say. The candlelight danced over the wall as if a wind had picked up inside the chamber, blowing it this way and that so much that it flitted back and forth over Merlin’s face, lighting it one minute, and bathing it in moonlight the next. “I’m here, Merlin. You’re okay.”

    “No. Arthur.” Merlin whimpered. “Please. Arthur.”

    Summary

    Canon AU. While visiting Nemeth as honored guests at Queen Mithian's wedding, it's becoming harder and harder for Merlin to control his newly-discovered feelings for Arthur. After an unpleasant confrontation with an anti-magic knight, Merlin's troubles only get worse--a small army of rebels attack in the dark, forcing them to flee the city into the forest beyond. Meanwhile, Arthur isn't sure he completely likes the way Sir Rayne of Nemeth looks at Merlin...although what this annoying twist is in his gut every time he sees them together, he's not sure. And Gwaine has a running bet with Mithian regarding a certain king and warlock's relationship.

    Summary

    Summary

    “Merlin?” There’s something close to awe on Valamir’s face as he blatantly studies the man. “Your name’s Merlin?”

    His cheeks go hot under the intense gaze, more so when Arthur’s is added. He could practically hear those blue eyes swiveling back and forth between them. Composure. He needs composure. “Yes,” he clears his throat. “Merlin. Y- I am. I’m Merlin.” Some composure. “Um, please, allow me to show you your room, Your Highness.”

    OR

    King Valamir is not all he seems. Coming from a land of magic, his view of Camelot is anything but positive and that makes any talk of a treaty between their kingdoms seem futile. Of course, the king seems to be only interested in Merlin, especially because he knows Merlin is Emrys and he sees it as his duty to whisk Merlin away from the evil place. All the attention he gives the warlock doesn't help Arthur, either, who's trying to confess a thing or two to his manservant.

    Summary

    Arthur had finally put his finger on it.
    The thing that had made Merlin stand out, the thing that had intrigued him about the boy ever since the first time he’d met him. The thing that was going to get him killed… Merlin had magic. Not only had it, but used it freely all the bloody time. It was only a matter of time before someone saw him do it, and then they’d report him to the king and Merlin would be dragged out into the courtyard and executed.
    Well, not if Arthur had anything to do about it.

     
    Mid series one, Arthur, for once not being totally oblivious, discovers that Merlin has magic. The problem is, having magic gets people killed and Arthur very much prefers Merlin alive. It turns out making sure nobody sees Merlin do magic is rather a full-time job however...
