    Summary

    Merlin will never be entirely able to explain his thoughts and actions of that day, but he will remember standing there; Gwen in his arms, his lips still tingling with her kiss, and only the hungry beast of desire left in his mind—that he wants her, and he ought to want her, and she belongs to him—

    And then Arthur stares him in the face, steel in his hand and betrayal in his eyes, and the fog clears.

    And Merlin has no idea what he’s just done.

    Or: Instead of Lancelot, Morgana enchants Merlin and Gwen to betray Arthur together on the eve of their wedding.

    Summary

    'What a wretched group of people.' Lestat interrupted with a grimace. 'How do you manage no to fall asleep listening to them? They are all so boring.'

    Louis huffed a laugh at the other man's appalled expression. 'Well, you've managed it too.'

    'Only because I had the pleasure of your company, Monsieur de Pointe du Lac.' Lestat's eyes turned to him, sparkling with mirth.
