Summary
366 BCE Ancient Greece
Born poor, foreign, and illegitimate, famous actor Merlin has spent his entire life on the outside looking in. Arthur Pendragon is a young and inexperienced politician desperately trying to prevent a war, leading him to turn to Merlin for help. Guinevere of Athens has secretly been publishing philosophical treatises under a male pseudonym, escaping suspicion. Morgana is a priestess at the Oracle of Delphi, one of the few women in Greece to wield political power, yet still sidelined. One day, Merlin receives a mission that he cannot refuse, one that will draw the four of them together — but could incite a war.

Summary
Arthur Pendragon, coined the prince of film, is more than unimpressed with Hollywood's latest rising star Merlin Emrys. He comes in with naivety and a chip on his shoulder and, when they're cast as co stars in the same movie, he is sure that Merlin won't last long.
Merlin can’t stand that absolute tosser, Arthur Pendragon, that everyone seems to love. But he must learn how to make peace with him if he can star alongside him for this many months— in a romance, no less.
They both plan on leaving each other alone and focusing on work until the fans decide they love them together, and in an act of good publicity, Arthur and Merlin must spend way more time together than either of them want.

Summary
“Oh, oh! Look at this one!” Arthur snorted, staring at his phone as he sat next to Merlin on the couch in the living room of their flat that evening. Merlin tore his eyes away from the movie they were supposed to be watching and raised an eyebrow at his boyfriend.
“What is it now?” He almost didn’t want to ask. When Arthur used that voice, it was almost always some bogus gossip story trying to either make them look bad, create a crazy affair for them, or somehow do both at the same time. He grimaced slightly, wondering which one of them and what it would be this time.
Arthur scooted closer and wrapped an arm around him, holding his phone between them so they could both read the screen. “Looks like you’ve got a secret girlfriend I didn’t know about! Who is this Freya Waterson, Merlin? I’m simply heartbroken!” He feigned distress, almost immediately killing the ruse by grinning stupidly.

Summary
“About Arthur and I?” Not that Merlin doubts quiet, steady Leon, the foil to Arthur’s restlessness. He just wants to avoid the press nightmare and Gaius lecturing him down the phone. “Not that there is ‘Arthur and I’. It’s casual. I mean, we haven’t talked about it—”
“You sent flowers,” Leon says, confused.

Summary
It's probably for the best that Arthur should start recording these new memories, after he's been resurrected from a long sleep in Avalon. And so he does, putting thoughts and experiences in one place as they travel through Europe, Asia, and other continents. From the basest desires consisting of the pornographic to the grandeur of embarking a fulfilling journey with family. To the exquisite gift of time that destiny has remarkably given them.
Like for example: favorite modern world hobbies - taking photos and creating porn videos featuring a willing dark-haired, blue-eyed sexy boy/man who's only too happy to do absolutely anything for him now that he's back in his life; theatre and dinner dates in London; eating Steak; making and raising babies; and just being alive without the pressures of being a King. Oh and loving and being loved in return. In this new life, there's no room for regrets - just an endless amount of time to live life to the fullest.
