Summary
“What, who do you think you are? The King?” Merlin asked incredulously when the alpha said he would throw him in jail - how cocky was this guy? His hopes of making it work were crumbling by the second.
“No, I’m his son. Arthur.”
Of fucking course. Because of course the best alpha Merlin had ever smelled would not only be a total prat, but would throw him on the pyre himself if he knew Merlin had magic, omega or not.
________________________________________________
Or: Merlin is an omega who pretends to be a beta to remain close to Arthur. If only he wasn't in love with the prat, it would be much easier to bear.

For many long years Merlin waited.
For the other part of his soul, for the other half of his life. He was born to serve Arthur. So that meant he was also born to wait. Even if it took a thousand years. Even if the wait seemed never to end.
Until one day, suddenly, it did.
When Arthur stumbles from the Lake of Avalon 1,500 years after his death, he finds a world unlike the one he knew. Faced with the loss of everyone he loved, and the threat of impending prophecy, Arthur must learn what it means to be not just a king, but the Once and Future King. Merlin does all he can to guide him, even as he struggles to hide his love for his king, and his fear of losing him again.
Story includes sass, banter, horseplay, & True Love.

Summary
Arthur and his pack of Knights have been tasked with an expedition to the Eastern boundaries, after reports of bandits wreaking havoc on the border towns... There were even reports of the bandits kidnapping omegas from their homes, ripping them from safety, and out of Camelot's protected lands.
The pack of alphas, along with their 100%-totally-a-beta-no-tests-required companion, Merlin, begin the perilous journey to put a stop to the atrocities. But, along the way, it seems there's a bit of an issue- for some reason, Merlin's suppressants, which have worked flawlessly for years, have just... stopped working.
Cue a confused Merlin, going into a long overdue heat, a worried and absolutely smitten Arthur, and a pack of shocked but fiercely protective alphas who are deadset on keeping their pack-beta turned pack-omega safe. In the woods. That was crawling with omega-hating bandits.
While the omega went into super-heat.... great.

Summary
“This is a destiny of your own making, Arthur Pendragon. Whether you regret it or not is of no consequence. You have offered your soul, and it is a promise you cannot break.”
After Arthur dies, a mysterious force throws Merlin and Arthur back in time, right to when they first met. Burdened by memories, overstrung by knowledge, they navigate an unfamiliar Camelot while trying to ease back into their comfortable dynamic before the revelation of Merlin's magic.
But nothing’s ever easy. For one, Merlin has the unnerving skill to dive head first into trouble, and this time round Arthur know enough not to be completely oblivious. Are their memories enough to help them usher in the promised golden age? And what do events from a thousand years ago have to do with everything?
Or
In which we attempt to untangle the emotional trauma that was Merlin’s life, the messed up but precious friendship that was Merlin and Arthur, and the character injustice that was Morgana.Or

Summary
Twenty-first-century Merlin, tired of waiting for Arthur to return, travels back in time determined to make the best of a second chance in Camelot.
(Gaius, still reeling from watching his nephew drink from a poisoned chalice and nearly perish from its effects, is almost too relieved that Merlin has woken up at all to notice how strangely he’s behaving.)
(Almost.)

Summary
"So you don't know a lot about women." Arthur stands, strides over to his bed and flops ungracefully onto the mattress. "But you do know lots about men. Well I'm a man. Show me."
Merlin's definitely hallucinating. There'd been something in the wine because this was impossible. Arthur waiting for him to come to his bed and fool around with him.
He doesn't move from his spot on the floor. He only peers curiously at Arthur from beneath his heavy eyelids. "How will that help you know how to bed your wife?"
