Summary
Merlin is Arthur's new secretary and is oddly appealing. Also, just to complicate things, eccentric Uther has introduced a penpal scheme within the office to promote team unity, and despite initially being at blows, Arthur and his anonymous penpal are getting on extremely well. Somehow Arthur has to balance his physical attraction to Merlin, and his emotional attraction to his penpal... While baking some exceptional puddings, because lemon drizzle cake is nice.

Summary
Arthur's bored to death by his mindless job, but that's all there is to life, right? He thinks so, until he meets Merlin and finds out that he really is the King of legend, and not just his namesake, and they have to save the world (of course). This is a story of the struggles of reincarnation, if magic has a place in the modern world, and what it really means for our heroes trying to live their lives.

Summary
Set immediately after the end of Season/Series 2, Uther finds out that Arthur has yet to “claim” his manservant. Having given the boy to his son with just such a purpose in mind, Uther decides that if Arthur isn’t going to use Merlin, he will. The act of forcing himself upon the young warlock reveals that the boy possesses certain physical anomalies that prove him a Dragonlord and grants Uther control over Merlin's gifts. Whatever Uther demands, Merlin must comply. However, the hand of destiny is a strange one and by usurping Arthur’s intended position in Merlin’s life, Uther “inherits” his son’s destiny with this act. With Merlin’s vast powers at his command he forcibly unites all the lands of Albion under his harsh and tyrannical rule, continuing to hunt down & seek to destroy all magic users he can't control…as well as any others foolish enough to oppose him. Arthur is forced into a position where he must seek unlikely allies to stop his father’s reign of terror & rescue Merlin from his enslavement under his father’s hand.
The 2 Most Brutal Scenes have been marked so that anyone who wishes to can avoid them & skip to the rest of the story. It's pretty self-explanatory . -

Summary
Merlin Emrys, supernatural expert and consultant for the local police, knows that going to the opening night of a vampire bar isn't a good idea, not with anti-vampire sentiments running rampant. So when he draws the eye of the bar's charismatic owner, and the new Master of the City, Arthur Pendragon, he's not exactly pleased.
When a series of murders, seemingly the work of vampires, forces them to work together anyway, Merlin unwittingly finds himself falling in love. Suddenly, the lines between work and love are not as cut and dry as they seem.

Summary
Modern AU with magic. Sex or die curse. They've had this arrangement for years now and it works. For Arthur, it's a duty, one he used to enjoy but doesn't anymore, and for Merlin, it's just something he has to do, like eating reasonably healthy food and getting enough sleep. The sex is part of their routines, a secret neither of them admits to anyone else, especially not to their partners. But maybe there is someone out there who can help them. And maybe, when faced with losing their connection, Merlin and Arthur start to rekindle a latent flame.
