Summary
After Merlin's magic is discovered by Arthur, he understands the king's need for some time apart. But the loss of the king's trust is a bitter pill to swallow, and even more so the loss of his love. Forced to wait until Arthur is willing to deal with him again, Merlin begins to realize that the loss of Arthur's love isn't just emotionally painful, but physical as well. He hasn't been able to breathe without pain since that day in the forest. And his cough is producing flower petals, a sign that something much worse is going on. Merlin isn't stupid, but he without options. There's no cure, and even if there was, it's definitely not pressure he's willing to put on his love. Merlin is content with his decision.
Arthur isn't.

Summary
“Do that again,” Arthur sounded as if he were a million miles away, a half-smile light on his lips, his eyelids fluttering. “Whatever that was, do that again.”
Merlin stared, just for a second; Arthur cracked an eye open and the hue was golden, golden light, the same light that entrenched both of their bodies.
“Arthur,” Merlin whispered, strangled, forcing himself away from the part of them that said to keep going. “Open your eyes."

Summary
Merlin buried his face in his hands. “Alright, fine, things were certainly . . . more than friendly. But I maintain that I did not sleep with either of them!”
Arthur’s world had tipped over. Merlin was the one that the visitors had wanted? It wasn’t a shock—Arthur found Merlin to be far prettier than either of them, after all—but to know that they had . . . dallied with his best friend made his skin crawl.

Summary
“Very well.” Annis looks back to Arthur. “You will have your trial by combat. However,” she says, “I will choose your champion.”
Arthur’s head snaps up. For a moment, he’s clearly uncomfortable, then his expression clears and he squares his shoulders. “As you wish. You have your pick of any one of my men.”
“Him.” Annis’ eyes do not leave Arthur’s. “At noon tomorrow, your servant will fight on behalf of Camelot.”

Summary
No servant should have so many scars. When a visiting knight sees Merlin's, he can only come to one conclusion: King Arthur is a violent abuser, and Merlin must be protected at all costs.
