    Summary

    The Avengers embark on a dangerous mission that takes a devastating turn—Steve Rogers is killed in action. His body is never recovered, leaving his team to mourn and move on, though some wounds never truly heal. No one feels the loss more than Bucky Barnes, who not only lost his best friend but the man he secretly loved.

    6 years later, during an unexpected call for help, Bucky sees a ghost—Steve Rogers, alive and well. But he’s not the same. He’s living a new life, and a woman by his side. The catch? Steve remembers everything. He knows who he is, what he left behind, and that he chose not to come back.

    Rage, heartbreak, and years of unresolved feelings rise to the surface as Bucky demands answers. Why did Steve let them believe he was dead? And more importantly, why did he let Bucky suffer alone?

    Summary

    In the heart of a modern Albion, nestled near the still waters of Avalon, Merlin runs a quiet orphanage—far from the prophecies, far from the crown. It’s a place of hope and new beginnings for the children in his care. But not today.

    Today marks exactly 1,500 years since Arthur Pendragon died and killed Merlin’s soul.

    While the orphanage bustles with excitement for Parents’ Day, Merlin can barely hold himself together. The sun is too bright. The children’s laughter cuts too deep. And still, he has no choice but to smile for them.

    What Merlin doesn’t know is that fate is already shifting. Because Arthur is about to rise again.

    Summary

    One night. It was more than Merlin had ever hoped for, and yet not enough to fill the empty well carved deep into his soul. But one night with Arthur would just have to last him a lifetime.
    It could be enough.
    It would be enough.
    But who could blame Merlin for keeping a little souvenir?

    Summary

    ‘’ So why don’t you tell us all about her?’’ Arthur inclined his head and looked expectantly at Merlin, he's watching him now, his eyes very focused and very cool. And there's something on his face, something Gwen hasn't quite been able to decipher yet, something that reminded her......

    Summary

    Merlin and Arthur share an unspoken arrangement. On rare evenings, they drink to excess, casting aside their cares and responsibilities, and spending the nights together in secret. Neither of them speaks of these encounters; it's a wordless ritual, full of glances and gestures, understood but never spoken aloud. In these scarce, stolen hours, they find solace, escape and a fleeting sense of companionship they can't find elsewhere.

    Under the pressure of building feelings and an interrupted evening, Merlin begins to ask the question: How much longer will this be enough?
