    Summary

    Strong bonds made for a strong pack, and he needed a strong pack.

    They spent a long time in silence, Derek thinking hard about how he was going to cement the bonds. It needed to be done, and not just because they had the threat of the witch hanging over them, but for the good of the pack.

    It felt like hours had passed by the time he came around; he had been so deep in his thoughts that he hadn’t noticed Stiles moving around on the couch so that his head was resting on Derek’s thigh, his long legs hanging over the arm on the far end.

    He wasn’t sleeping, but his eyes were closed and his heartbeat wasn’t as fast as it usually was, as if he was just on the edge of sleep. It should have felt weird, having Stiles in such close contact, but Derek found that it really didn’t feel weird at all. His head was a comforting weight in Derek’s lap, another anchor tethering him and keeping him calm and in control.

    .

    Or, the one where Derek meets a witch, gets his betas back, and seemingly develops a sense of humour. Also, Stiles is totally magic, manages to accidentally join a werewolf pack, and asks too many goddamn questions. What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    “Actually, I don’t give a fuck who you are,” Derek says, curling his lip harshly. “This is private property. How the fuck did you even get in?”

    In an act of quick placation, Stiles throws up two palms facing outwards in front of his chest. His eyebrows knit together as he hastily and vehemently begins to shake his head, trying desperately to telegraph just how severely Derek has grasped at the wrong end of the stick here.

    “Hey, whoa,” he says. “That’s not –”

    “You need to get the fuck out of here before I call the cops.” Derek pauses a moment, his nostrils flaring just a second before his eyes flash burning red, his entire face screwing up in this expression of pure disgust that sends a shiver down Stiles’ spine. “Christ, and you’re a human? A human omega? What kind of fucking moron breaks into a werewolves’ house when they’re just a weak fucking human?”

     

    An alpha werewolf and a human omega: a love story that was never supposed to happen.

    Summary

    “I would never…” Arthur’s hands flew up, finally pushing past his own nervousness to grab Merlin’s face. “I would never let that happen. I needed to get you out of there as soon as I could. I’m sorry I caused a scene, I just…” Arthur brushed his thumb along Merlin’s sharp cheekbone, soothing the ache in his own chest. The skin under his fingertips simmered the heat he had felt for weeks, he had no idea how a man could feel so soft—so beautifully soft—to the touch.

    or
    4 times Arthur’s jealousy got in the way of his feelings and 1 time he finally did something about it.

    Summary

    "And you Merlin? What's your type?"
    When Arthur saw him exchange a fleeting glance with Lancelot, his heart sank. Suddenly he realized he didn't want to know the answer.
    "Alright, uhm..." Merlin spoke with his gaze turned to the fire before him. "I supposed... someone who's kind, brave and pure hearted. Someone noble and loyal". Merlin scratched his forehead, clearly embarrassed as a chorus of 'uuuuh' spread through the clearing.

    'The most noble and brave', wasn't that how Merlin had told him that Kilgharrah, The Great Dragon, had once called Lancelot?
    Arthur suddenly felt very nauseous.
    How could he have been so stupid? Now it all really made sense.
    Merlin was in love with Lancelot.
