Summary
“So what was your plan then? Seduce me? Manipulate me with your disgusting magic? Kill my father and then get yourself some… insurance in case I found out?” Arthur spat the word like it was filth incarnate. “How long have you known you were pregnant?”
When a desperate Arthur tells Merlin he’s willing to use magic to save his dying father, Merlin doesn’t hesitate. Unbeknownst to either of them, someone has already taken steps to ensure that Uther dies. When Merlin’s magic fails, any hope of Arthur embracing his gift dies with Uther.
Arthur abandons Merlin despite his pregnancy, and leaves him to rot in one of Camelot’s many towers. But even locked in a cage, Merlin faces constant danger and must find a way to escape his fate.
