    Summary

    Arthur realized only one thing—Merlin had a secret. And it terrified him like some sort of monster. To set the poor fellow’s mind at ease, Arthur gave his word that he would not use the truth potion to uncover his servant’s secrets.
    After all, it was highly unlikely that Merlin was hiding anything of importance, right? It was unbefitting a prince to pry into the petty secrets of servants, right?..
    And besides, he hadn't promised not to snoop, right?
    And so, he learns one of Merlin’s secrets. Then another. And another. And even more. Arthur will keep searching until he uncovers everything, until he learns what has been hidden from him, until these secrets change him entirely.

    Summary

    Arthur has always taken Merlin on every mission — unarmoured, untrained, endlessly reckless.

    It never used to matter.

    But lately, every danger feels sharper. Every close call lasts too long.

    And Merlin is starting to notice the way Arthur hovers… and how the prince’s worry is beginning to look a lot like something else.

    A slow-burn story about devotion disguised as duty, love revealed through quiet choices, and the people who become home when the world turns dangerous.

    Love wins — even when it has to fight for it.

    Written with a companion playlist (linked in the notes) :)

    Summary

    The bandits came from the tree line like shadows given teeth. Arthur had his sword drawn before the first cry rang out, steel singing free of the scabbard as he pivoted toward the rush of bodies.
    They were outnumbered—six knights against what looked like twenty men, ragged and desperate, pouring from the dark wood on either side of the forest road.
