Summary
“Merlin. Even if you’re … even if you’re right, it doesn’t matter. It’s too late. He’s going to kill me. And I—listen to me, you idiot. I don’t want you to watch. And I don’t want you to be next.”
or
After confronting Morgause's vision of his mother, Arthur rides for Camelot, intending to make his father pay for his hypocrisy. He falls short of luck, for the King has fallen back on the counsel of his faithful Witchfinder, Aredian, who is convinced that Arthur is not Arthur, the crown prince, but a changeling, bound to Morgause's will and let loose upon Camelot to usurp Uther of his crown.
As Arthur is dragged away to the dungeons, sentenced to a death by fire, Merlin must race against time to change the course of events which seem to spell out Arthur's demise. Time is scarce, however, and for all intents and purposes, it might be too late already.

Summary
25 stories featuring Merlin, Arthur, the Knights, Gwen and a range of others navigating circumstances they never had to in canon. Buckle up because this series is filled with misunderstandings (the funny kind), betrayals (the dramatic type) and happy endings (save for one).
Also despite being released daily, there's no continuation and no obligation to read all of them but readers may find a few cactuscandle eggs (see what I did there?) here and there!

Summary
Arthur was tipped back against the wall, his mouth open for breath and staring at the small arrow-slit window over Merlin's head, trying to work out how it could possibly be that good with Merlin, of all people.

Summary
At sixteen, Merlin had been gangly and awkward and nothing but the cook's son to his crush: carefree playboy Gwaine Debois. When he returned to England after a couple of years away, he was delighted and surprised to catch Gwaine's interest. But the course of true love never did run smooth and Arthur, Gwaine's business-focused cousin had an agenda of his own and Merlin was standing in his way.
