If my secret had a secret would your secret be negated or would it grow instead? by Merlioske

Summary
Arthur had always trained to be the best. He did his work, then did some more and then more still. Yet, his father's eyes never glowed in pride. He was never... Good enough. Never strong or fast enough. Never Alpha enough. He had accepted it. Accepted, that, being born a beta, a beta *Prince* he'd have to work all that much more to prove his worth. He had. But why was it so hard?
Merlin never had it easy. But he had his mam, he had his Will and screw the rest, really. Except then, out of the blue, Puberty hit. Now Merlin has it *worse*. Camelot is /not/ a smart place to be. For a secret sorcerer. For a secret, peasant sorcerer. For a secret, peasant, *Alpha* sorcerer. But, well, he'll just keep his head down, learn a healing trade and nothing bad will happen.

Uther's a dick, Gaius is a doormat for *his* king, Arthur suffers needlessly and Merlin pulls a Merlin because he's Merlin and cannot be anything else but what he is. -

Summary
What if… instead of summoning the Fomorroh, Morgana kept Merlin prisoner? Just so that he could finally answer all her questions. At knifepoint. Until Merlin admits a truth he should have kept to himself…
In doing so, Morgana planned to show Arthur all that he was, except… what if he didn’t experience the disgust she expected? What if Arthur realised all that he had missed?
What if… Merlin suffered only for everything to change upon his rescue?

Summary
Merlin opened and closed his mouth twice before he found his voice. “Rowan, I think there’s been a misunderstanding.”
Rowan frowned, “Oh, my apologies. Are you not at the betrothed stage yet? When you do, please send me a letter so I can give you my heartfelt congratulations.”
Arthur grimaced, “The thing is, Merlin and I aren’t a couple.”

Summary
The wind changed.
There was something unright about the black wolf. Golden-eyed, whip-thin. Too long of snout and limb. Among the trees, he might have been a shadow thrown by a wholly different creature–or, from the angle of the light, by Arthur himself.
Arthur had never seen him; Arthur knew him. It couldn't be, and wouldn't be beneath the sun. But it was Wolf Moon now, and Arthur's pack was somewhere in the woods, going on without him, while Arthur stood frozen as a deer, naked paws on the leaf litter, naked fur beneath the white moon, too exposed away from the safety of the brush–because he was a fool who charged in, because he was the apex predator in these woods, until he wasn't.
As prince of the Camelot wolf pack, Arthur has fought his entire life to be worthy of his title and his father's pride. When he meets a strange wolf with a too-familiar scent on the first full moon of the new year, he must decide what's really worth fighting for.

Summary
A group of Camelot knights stop by Ealdor on their way to meet with King Cenred and Merlin can't help but notice one of them in particular - not difficult as he seems to notice Merlin too. His magic certainly seems to have some opinions about it.
But he's only passing through, so best forget it and move on, right?

Summary
When Gwaine told Merlin that he would sponsor him for the Social Season, he just laughed in his face.
When Gwaine just smiled back mischievously, he started to worry.
***
Merlin unwittingly becomes a candidate in the traditional royal race to win Arthur's heart and marry him. Apparently, Gwaine was right when he'd said that the line between genius and insanity was a very fine one.

Summary
Life as a newly bitten werewolf is kind of terrible, especially when Merlin gets captured by hunters. It’s not exactly the way he expected his life to go when he moved to London, and he really wishes he could make all of it disappear. Instead, he ends up being rescued by a pack of werewolves with a slew of problems of their own, including an inner power struggle, hunters and rumours of... well, Merlin doesn’t know, exactly, but it’s not good.

Summary
Arthur huffed, then put on his most commanding voice. “You have to pay attention to me, I’m the king, I demand it.”
Some of the effect of a direct order was lost by the picture Arthur made on the floor, blinking pitifully up through dark eyelashes, but, in fairness, a wholly different effect was gained.
Merlin finally inclined his head to look down on his king. “And does doing all your work for you not count as attention?”
“Obviously not,” Arthur pouted, resting his chin on one of Merlin’s knees. “I want you to look at me, I want you to touch me.”
“Oh,” Merlin teased with wide eyes and brushed Arthur’s hair back from his face. “So that’s what this is about.”
“No!” Arthur was defensive. “…Not entirely.” He laid his head against the inside of Merlin’s thigh. “I just miss you.”Bookmarked by Taybug13

Summary
Merlin’s mother had made it very clear to him what he should do when she sent him off to Camelot. Merlin wasn’t to tell anyone he had magic, his mother was scared that he would be collared to keep him in line if someone found out. Yet, Camelot was, above all, one of the best places for an alpha warlock to be. In Essitir, the omega king would drag alphas off to his palace once they were old enough, claim them, and use them for their powers. It was a fate that Merlin’s mother had feared him facing since he presented at twelve summers old. It was why, on the eve of his eighteenth summer, she sent him away to the bordering kingdom before Cenred’s men could show up in Elador to take him away. In Camelot Merlin could have a future.
It was a more hopeful future than what he would have in any other kingdom.
Other than Essitir and Camelot, all other kingdoms executed alphas who had magic, mated or not, too afraid of what they could do. Camelot had done the same, once, but that had changed when the Queen had fallen for an alpha sorceress and had taken her as her mate, changing the law to allow mated magical alphas to live in peace.
All Merlin had to do was catch an omega....
... or let one catch him...
