Summary
When Merlin is lost to Arthur in a way he cannot understand, the prince is left shattered—adrift in a world colder and lonelier than he ever imagined. But grief is only the beginning. When Merlin returns, changed and without memory of being gone, or why, Arthur confronts a truth he never expected: Merlin is his soulmate, the missing piece that makes him whole. As their bond rekindles and deepens, Arthur will fight against all odds to protect the man he cannot live without. Together, they must navigate secrets, danger, and their own hearts—discovering that love can rise from even the darkest of tragedies, and that some souls are destined to be forever entwined.

Summary
The knights had sprung to their feet. Percival and Elyan had pulled him back, while Arthur and Leon stood in front. Lancelot and Gwaine were flanking them, the latter showing none of the alcohol sickness he had been prior.
But Mordred’s eyes were fixated on the wall and the text therein.
The left option stood there, upon the wall, like a tantalizing invitation, a riddle within a mystery; the right option seemed like both a warning and a reprieve from the unknown.
Mordred suddenly found himself unable to breathe.
OR:
After waking up in an unfamiliar and barren room, Arthur and the Knights are forced into solving a mystery which only brings about more questions than it answers. Worst of all, Mordred fears the secrecy of sorcery will only get more jeopardized.

Summary
The Gods play games with us mere mortals. This is a fact. They see our scheming and planning and laugh at us.
Sometimes they punish us. They smite those who anger them. They kill crops, send plagues or floods. This is also known.
But less known is sometimes. If we are lucky. They may on a whim decide that a mere moral deserves to have their deepest secret desires fulfilled. Merlin didn't expect to be noticed by a god and yet here is one crouched before him.
Or:
A Merlin/Arthur story about breaking up, falling back in love, and along the way being gifted something precious by a god. -

Summary
Arthur has let his manservant get away with many things that should have seen him removed from his position and tossed out of Camelot. The disappearing act that caused him to be late has Arthur raging, searching for his dolt of a servant. It seems that an Omega has taken up residence in Arthur's chambers, and Merlin isn't there to deal with it, perhaps because the Omega is Merlin.

Summary
After the 100th or so betrayal, Arthur has had more than enough.
He calls a meeting with the knights of the round table, Gwen and Merlin
where he asks them to come clean about any secrets they've been keeping before Morgana can use them.
He promises immunity from any crimes/no consequences as long as they confess now.
Amidst the flurry of revelations, Arthur finds out he doesn't know his inner circle as well as he thought.
Merlin is conflicted. This unhoped for opportunity to reveal what he's been hiding seems too good to be true but
Are some secrets just too much to forgive ?(im at least 2 percent better at stories than summaries so please don't judge according to the quality of the summary.)

Summary
Arthur Pendragon and Merlin were literally from two different worlds. One is a prince from a great kingdom and the other a common farm boy from the next kingdom over. These two should have never met.
But that was before they realized their parents were once friends and arranged the two of them to marry when they reached adulthood. That was before Uther turned on magic and Hunith went on the run with her infant son.
Now, twenty years have passed and the Prince, Arthur Pendragon is far out of his depth. After four months of marriage and learning what he has about Merlin, he knows that things need to change, but doesn’t know what can be done.
And with every attempt at trying going wrong, with mysterious boys showing up wanting to be a knight, strange physician’s trying to coerce his consort away, even stranger ladies who’ve seen to weaken Arthur’s brain, and the arrival of an odd Druid boy they need to risk it all just to get to safety…will Arthur ever get things to go right?

Summary
“Merlin! I've already had my heart broken enough today. I do not want to lose another friend."
Merlin’s face, which until now had held fury, grief, and some semblance of hope, shuttered.
“The moment you chose to believe Agravaine over Gaius - the man who practically raised you," his voice was cold and bore none of the affection Arthur had grown so used to, “you already did.”

Summary
Deep in the forest an ancient temple slumbers, the legacy of a god carved into its walls, a promise of salvation and a promise of eternity.
Arthur Pendragon didn't go looking for the prophecy of the Once and Future king, but when a stranger pushes it into his lap he can't let go. Who the hell is Emrys, and why would a sorcerer help him in the first place? The druids hold the key, but the path to discovery is long, and he may soon wish he'd never step foot on it all. When a tragic sacrifice is made, Arthur is left with a choice between betrayal and forgiveness, understanding and ignorance, love and hate.
Meanwhile Merlin would follow his king anywhere, and he has. He could never bring himself to regret following Arthur that day, but he would always wonder how different life could have been if he had somehow convinced him to just go home. Tortured peasant boys don't make good Gods, and the consequences have the potential to change the world - if he could only escape the Sarrum long enough to try.
or: The one where Emrys is a God and doesn't know it, Arthur pushes until he breaks, Sarrum is evil and Merlin never wanted any of this to happen. Mordred's just happy to be here.

Summary
"Let him think I hate him. If that’ll stop him from risking his neck for me over and over again, then it’s a sacrifice I don’t have to think twice about."
—
Arthur finds out Merlin has magic. He also finds out how often Merlin risked his life for him and so, he does the only thing he can think of to protect him: banishment.
Hurt and angry, Merlin leaves and swears to not look back.
But, when two years pass and Morgana shows up at Merlin’s door, urging him to fill Gaius’ position as Court Physician, Merlin agrees. He really doesn’t know why, but Arthur is sure Merlin would do just about anything to get on his nerves.
Unprepared for the shock of seeing Merlin back in the castle, Arthur is forced to speed along his plans to lift the ban on magic. But between stubborn councilors, a mysterious plague, a still angry Merlin, and Morgana being Morgana, Arthur is fairly certain he’ll lose his mind before the first year of his reign even ends.

Summary
Merlin and Gaius were always so busy running around the citadel trying to stop assassins and sorcerers and everything else in-between that they often forgot other people were around. Whether it was the fact that their door being closed didn’t suddenly mean no one would ever be able to hear them, or the fact that talking loudly in a hallway wasn’t a secret place, the two of them seemed to give out more of their treason acts than they knew.
With the Guards and Knights of Camelot stumbling across these two men in various stages of illegal activities, just how long can Merlin stay off the pyre and keep his head? And just how long will it be until it’s Arthur himself who overhears one of their conversations about all the ways they break the law?

Summary
“Lazing off again? You never do miss an opportunity to take a break, do you?”
Merlin let out a hearty laugh. A ridiculous laugh. He was so afraid that he would never be able to hear that taunting voice again. He turned his head to see that familiar head of golden locks in the grass next to him. They lay together in silence for a few seconds before Merlin finally took another deep breath.
or: Merlin successfully saved Arthur at the battle of Camlann and the aftermath between the two.
