Summary
A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.
He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.
'Arthur?'
When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.
He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.
Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

Summary
Arthur had never wanted to send Merlin away, especially not when Merlin thought the reason was because of his magic. Arthur loved him, magic and lies and all, but there had been no time. Merlin's life worth everything. Arthur was happy to suffer at his father's cruel hands in Merlin's place.
Only years later, with the danger finally past and his scars slowly healing, Arthur still can't find Merlin to bring him home. But destiny isn't done with them yet. The clue to Merlin's whereabouts shows up to Camelot wearing a cloak and a familiar face with the most interesting request.
Will their love be able to heal the trauma of their years apart or will they need help from destiny's newest addition?
Get ready for my cutest and most heartbreaking tale of love yet!

Summary
“Gorwin is my King,” Merlin says, golden eyes fixed flatly on Arthur. “And I work for him. That’s what it says.”
“That’s what what says?” Arthur all but roars, wishing he had a sword just so that he could swing it at something. He needs to let all of this anger at something, anything, he’s just not sure at what and he doesn’t really care anymore.
“The treaty you signed."
Or:
Arthur lends Merlin's aid as a sorcerer to an allied kingdom. He doesn't expect to find Merlin, two years later, in shackles, and only a mere echo of the person he used to be.

Summary
Merlin should be happy, he wakes up every morning in the arms of the man he loves, he has plenty of friends, and job he doesn’t really hate as much as he says. But Merlin is also a coward, and a liar and the worst kind.
He shares his prince’s bed without telling him the truth. He continues to hide from those he loves and he’s starting to feel the weight of shouldering his destiny and his lies.
But when asking for some help doesn’t go the way he planned and an old face returns to Camelot, Merlin is suddenly faced with choices that threaten to destroy the careful facade he’s put up and leave him vulnerable for all to see.
