Summary
Camlann is over, but the cost of survival is only beginning to surface.
In the uneasy calm after the war, Arthur tries to rebuild a kingdom while Merlin carries the weight of what it took to keep him alive. Magic is no longer a secret, peace is fragile, and something between Arthur and Merlin has shifted in ways neither of them fully understands.
Glances linger too long. Touches feel too charged. Old boundaries refuse to hold.
And beneath Merlin’s skin, something ancient has begun to stir—something fierce, possessive, and far older than the kingdom they are trying to rebuild.
This is a story about aftermath and wanting, about love that grows in the ruins of war, and about the terrible truth that sometimes you would give anything for the one you love—only to discover that some prices do not stop at sacrifice.
