Art Penn-Britain's leading expert in Medieval Europe-has always had a fascination with Arthurian Legend, and when the British Museum of Natural History finds a painting of what might just be King Arthur and his most trusted knights, they ask Art to come take a look at it. What he finds shocks him: a man who looks just like him, and a circle of people that feel instantly familiar. Confused and intrigued, Art digs into the history of the painting and along the way finds a strange and eccentric group of friends, and a beautiful man with secrets that could change everything.

He had made countless sacrifices for Arthur these long years, and he carried so many secrets that his king would never know; his magic was only one of few. Merlin was proud of his calloused palms, his hidden scars, the pain twisting his stomach, everything he had given up for his destiny.

by Lola_Rose_Robins

“All magic is evil and should be eradicated.”

Merlin’s heart sank to his feet as he heard Arthur’s words. The cleaning rag fell from between his trembling fingers, splashing into the bucket, sending dirty water all over the freshly scrubbed wood. He took a deep, steadying breath, blinking back the tears that were threatening to well up. “You can’t mean that,”

Merlin was young when he came to realise that his soulmate was either really clumsy or lived a chaotic existence. Being able to take on the injuries of your soulmate is just a fact of life, a fact that Merlin happily accepts as he learns the ins and outs of his healing magic. But coming to Camelot has disrupted his long held trust in the Fates, for how can someone as bull-headed and arrogant as the prince wear his mark?

The feeling of soft lips on his neck and of warm fingers running through his hair distract Arthur from downing in his too loud, too dark thoughts; instead he melts into Merlin’s touch, letting out a breath he didn’t know he was holding onto.

“You’re thinking too loud. Can’t sleep,” Merlin mumbles, snuggling even closer to Arthur if that’s even at all possible.
