After the silence, after the last words.
Caught in the silence. Caught in between.

#Word count: 7321
Merlin’s just about to call to the kitchen to get someone to come out and cover the front while he takes a break when the familiar creak of the old front door opening catches his attention. In walks Arthur Pendragon, blond hair looking green as the sunlight filters through a large sticker on the window advertising their newest beer on tap. He’s gorgeous, God he’s gorgeous. Just as every time Merlin sees him, a drop of want settles in Merlin’s stomach and starts to blossom, tendrils of desire growing through Merlin’s body.

A Binding Contract [99 K]
In a society where people with magic are considered to be dangerous, are labelled as freaks, and have their powers cut off from them, Merlin does whatever he can to survive the hard life he’s faced with. When he’s in desperate need of money, Merlin’s landlord Aredian arranges and offers a magically binding contract in which Merlin is to become a ‘companion’ to Uther Pendragon’s son, Arthur.

As for Merlin, he’s not quite sure about what to make of his new job as an au pair for the wealthiest man in town; but he does know that his employer has more than a few skeletons in his closet.
Shelter + Haven [together they’re more than 120 K]
Because sometimes happily ever after doesn’t always come easily. Because sometimes you have to hurt a little before you can smile. Because sometimes life gets in the way. Because sometimes when you find love, you have to seek its shelter and hold on tight. Because sometimes it’s worth it.
The Job Interview from Hell [93 K]

Loaded March series [490 K]
The reason SAS Captain Arthur Pendragon can’t keep a communications specialist in Team Excalibur because none of them are good enough. And then Lieutenant Merlin Emrys gets assigned to his squad, and Arthur does everything he can to prove that Merlin isn’t good enough, either. Except he is.
Pianos are Made for Falling [103 K]
Arthur is a world class violinist, trapped in Sydney, Australia, by his fear of flying. In the wake of a mediocre concert, vicious critics and with barely a month to go before his next (hopefully reputation-saving) recital, Arthur is almost at breaking point. When his accompanist, Morgana, breaks her wrist in a car accident, Arthur is more or less doomed. And the story begins, when the Maestro at the conservatoire, Gaius Stresemann, recommends his protege Merlin Emrys to step in. Merlin, who plays by ear, as he pleases and really just wants to be a kindergarten teacher.
Backfire
In which there are giant ears, a curious cat, backfiring spells, a stick figure Arthur, some unfortunate truths and some very welcome ones.
