Summary
The Pendragons have been cursed with lycanthropy for generations. Only, it isn't a curse. It is a gift, given to the Pendragons in thanks for saving a fairy's life.
Uther blamed the arcane for the "curse" and banned all arcane beings. As King, Arthur welcomed back druids, werewolves, and fey with open arms. He has a loyal pack, and now he has Merlin. A druid specially trained to tether werewolf packs to humanity.
But being a werewolf has earned Arthur powerful enemies, and there is a traitor in the Pack.
Arthur is bleeding out. Merlin must make a choice. Either save the man he loves, or stop the traitor. In the end, there is no choice.
Enemy troops are on the move: Odin and Cenred have joined forces with a group referring to themselves as Ferræden of Déaþ Wulf. They are preparing to lay siege to Camelot.
With Arthur still healing from the most recent attempt on his life and the traitor selling Camelot's secrets to Odin, defending Camelot is impossible. There is only one option. Evacuate the citadel. Seek refuge with allies.
A desperate last stand leads to a powerful potential ally beyond the realm of man. It might be The Pack's only chance to save their home.

Summary
The Pendragons have been cursed with lycanthropy for generations. Mysteriously, the curse did not affect Uther Pendragon and he thought the curse broken. When Arthur experienced his first shift on the full moon, Uther blamed the arcane for the return of the curse and banned all arcane beings and practices from the Kingdom of Camelot.
Arthur is now king, and has welcomed back druids, werewolves, and fey with open arms. He has a loyal pack at his side, and now he needs a Pack Druid. A druid specially trained to act as an advisor and a tether to humanity for werewolf packs.
Enter Merlin; the first Pack Druid trained since Uther's ban on the arcane. While he and Arthur get off to a rocky start, it's clear that Merlin is a missing piece to the pack. That joy is short lived, however, when an attack on the road reveals a political plot against Arthur's life. Merlin and the rest of the pack must come together to figure out who betrayed them before Arthur, and all of Camelot, are lost.

Summary
Merlin's car dies in the middle of nowhere during a blizzard. To survive, he must shift into his wolf form.
While wandering around aimlessly and nearly freezing to death, he comes across Arthur, an Alpha who has never gotten over the senseless death of his mate at the hands of humans. It quickly becomes clear that the two share a very special bond and that Merlin is an Omega unlike any other. Arthur remains reserved. But their wolves know they are meant to be together. Both surrender to their destiny with an almost fatal result for Merlin. Arthur knows this isn't the first time this has happened. With a heavy heart, they agree that it is better for Merlin's safety if they separate. While Merlin returns to the city to teach wolf pups, Arthur remains alone in his cabin.
Neither can forget the time they spent together. Seeing only one way out, Arthur makes a bold decision that will redefine his life as a shifter. How will Merlin react? Will this allow Arthur to win Merlin back and prove himself a worthy Alpha to his Omega? (no mpreg) COMPLETED

Summary
“It’s strike one,” Eddie tells him, sultry and low.
Buck shudders, “in that case, maybe I should tell you about the dining room.”
“Yeah? What’d you do to my dining room Buckley?”
“I was moving the table and I, um, I scratched the floors.”
Eddie tsks gently, “strike two.”
“And there were these renter friendly stick on hooks, y’know, to hang pictures and stuff,” Buck is panting, and his stomach is tightening in a way that tells him he is, in fact, getting hard while on the phone with his landlord, explaining all the reasons he will never be getting his security deposit back. “And they pulled off the paint.”
“Oh Buck,” Eddie’s voice is a rich whisper from the speaker, sympathy with a cruel edge, “that’s three strikes.”
-Or-
Buck is late paying rent... how could he ever make this up to his sexy landlord...

Summary
Buck has never been a fan of pet names.
He's been called them before. More times than he can count, really, but it's always sounded the same. Cheap. Transactional. Someone wanting something from him.
Babe. Baby. Sweetheart. They all blurred together into the same empty noise, the same hollow affection that never lasted past that one night.
The first time Eddie calls him one, he thinks it must be an accident.
-----------
or: Buck learns that maybe pet names can come from a place of love rather than someone just wanting him for what he can give them in one night.

For some reason, this was really doing it for Buck— seeing Eddie get riled up, how pink his cheeks would get, and how deep his voice would get. If Buck wasn’t careful, he’ll cross a line he shouldn’t.
He just can’t help it though and goes on a mission to ragebait Eddie to get a reaction out of him— to see how he could get under his skin.

Summary
The thing is, now that he’s accepted being romantically inclined towards Buck, he’s pretty sure he sees Buck’s reciprocated feelings everywhere. It feels more like a matter of when rather than if. Like Buck’s a sure thing.
On the evening of Buck’s speed dating event, he comes out of their bedroom asking for help picking between two jackets, and Eddie simply says, “you don’t need to go to that.”
“Huh?” Buck’s eyebrows shoot up, framed by that blushed red birthmark.
Eddie shrugs, leaning back on the couch and kicking his feet up. “Go waste time if you want, but you really don’t need to.”
/
Eddie is possessive of Buck, but he doesn't get jealous. Why would he? Buck's always been his.

Summary
He's stuck. Pinned beneath a slab of concrete that feels like it weighs more than a truck. His radio is crushed somewhere under the wreckage—he can’t reach it, can’t even turn his head far enough to check. His chest rises in shallow, ragged gasps, each breath harder than the last. The air’s thick with dust, choking, dry. It scrapes at his throat like sandpaper, and he can feel the panic starting to creep in, tight and hot in his chest.

Or, debris topples on top of Buck after saving Bobby. No one notices. Not for a few hours.Series

Summary
Buck’s imagined finding his soulmate what must be thousands of times. Imagined the curve of their delighted smile, the warmth of their embrace. Usually, in his mind, they were a woman. As he grew older and knew himself better, he allowed himself to sometimes picture a man. Sometimes, before the truck bombing, he’d wished it would be Eddie himself.
But always, always, they wanted him.
The reality of the situation is a far cry from his daydreams: Buck, sitting on the cold tile, quietly weeping as he realizes that the person he’s been waiting for, the person he was made for, doesn’t want him after all.
-
In a world where soulmates share scars, Buck has a few epiphanies after the shooting. One: Eddie is his soulmate. Two: Eddie has known this since the ladder truck, and hasn't said a word. Cue angst.

Summary
"Merlin!” He said, smiling brightly with eyes wide. “Merlin, my love!”
“Oh Gods and Goddesses, please save me,” Merlin mumbled to himself as Arthur scrambled off the table and ran to wrap his arms around Merlin. The sorcerer groaned and looked over his shoulder at Arthur.
“But it hurts to be apart.” Arthur whined, proceeding to unceremoniously drop all 180 pounds of himself onto Merlin’s lap. “It hurts deep in here.”
Arthur grabs Merlin’s hand and rests it over his heart. Merlin just looks at him with a deadpan look as he wrestles his hand back and tries to shove Arthur off.
~~~
Or Merlin believes Arthur has been hit with a love spell and has to deal with an insanely clingy Arthur for two days while he tries to figure out how to break it.
A talk with the druids leaves him thinking about his supposedly unrequited love (and how it might not be so unrequited)

Summary
“Almost four years ago a tsunami washed through Santa Monica. In the years since the tragedy, Los Angeles has focused on remembering the lives that were lost. A memorial was created and every year on the anniversary thousands of people come together to tell the stories of the people who were lost to the wave.
“Over the past year, a team of volunteers sifted through hours of footage to piece together the untold stories of heroism from that day. Using that footage, as well as interviews with survivors, they were able to put together a series of videos recognizing the heroes that stepped up.
“There were many people that saved many lives that day. But one of the most heroic was someone I know personally. This is the story of Evan Buckley, known by most as Buck or Firefighter Buckley.”Or
On a shift without Buck, his team at the 118 turned on the news to see what happened to Buck during the tsunami. After seeing everything that happened, Eddie struggles to convince Buck that what happened was not his fault. Somehow that results in Buck and Eddie getting together and them finally admitting that Buck is Christopher’s other dad.Bookmarked by Merlin242
