The knights find out about Merlin's scars and intend to find out more. Merlin attempts to evade certain subjects.

Merlin, from day one, has had to hide his magic. How could he be himself, if admitting to practising sorcery would get him killed? Arthur has always been fond of his manservant. But how could he truly come to terms with his feelings for him, if by doing so, he'd be going against the traditions and laws of Camelot, and his father? ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Dedicated, with all my love, to Darya2m

Arthur Pendragon is hopeless when it comes to the act of courting. Having failed numerous attempts at courting his manservant, Merlin, Arthur turns to the only people he can think of for help: the Knights of the Round Table.

Arthur Pendragon begins to worry when his manservant, Merlin, stops showing up to work.

Uther Pendragon has hated sorcery since the very day it resulted in the death of his wife. He's ruled Camelot with an iron fist, murdering countless of innocent sorcerers in the public eye. He's raised his son, Arthur, to hate magic with equal passion. But what will Arthur's reaction be, when returning early from a hunting trip, he sees an execution taking place? What will he do when the man tied to the stake is his own manservant?

Merlin was about to leave Arthur's chambers but Arthur stopped him. <<It's too late. Sleep here. >> and so Merlin did. He sat on a chair and he fell asleep. ~Maybe he doesn't want to be alone now. Maybe those wounds have hurt his heart, not just his body.~ ⚠️: incomplete. Highest Ranking-> #1 in MerlinxArthur #384 in Fangirl.

What will happen when the young Pendragon discovers his feelings for his man-servant? What will happen when Merlin builds up the courage to tell Arthur his secret? Disclaimer I do not own Merlin or any of the characters. Still writing this so there might be a few grammar mistakes and I'm still editing Hope you enjoy it! All the love -J x

When Merlin disappeared, it took a chunk out of everyone's heart, especially Arthur's. The knights and him checked all of the five kingdoms, but he was nowhere to be found. Everyone just gave up and believed that he died. Because of this, Arthur was a mess and shut himself in his room. If you want to find out the rest read this story. Lancelot didn't die. Morgana didn't turn evil. Mordred is still a knight. Lancelot and Gwen are together instead.

Winter falls on Camelot. It falls to Merlin to keep Arthur company as the search for Morgana becomes increasingly desperate. 6000 words, Merlin/Arthur. Set in the break between series 2 & 3. I had to make a judgement call on whether we’re dealing with Yule or Christmas in this Merlin verse. I went with Yule (there was reasoning, but I won’t bore you with it). Chapter beginnings taken from Doubt Comes In, by Anais Mitchell, from my favourite album this year Hadestown (it’s a folk opera about Orpheus and Eurydice - so that’s the very definition of not for everyone but its weird and creepy and awesome)
