    Summary

    After nearly getting killed on his last mission in Tanzania, ex-Marine Merlin Ambrose joins the Special Operations Group (SOG) and is promptly given a new assignment. However, he's not thrilled to learn that this means to babysit Professor Arthur Pendragon, a cranky astrophysicist and math genius who prefers to communicate through sign language. Pendragon has already sent two other agents packing due to ulterior motives, leaving Merlin as the agency's last hope to protect him. Despite the challenge, Merlin is determined to take on the arrogant professor. Things get complicated when the two men, with their contrasting personalities, develop feelings for each other while trying to evade the bad guys who are already closing in. And what in the world is Merlin's boss hiding? (Note: Arthur is not deaf. He just doesn't speak for a reason that is revealed later in this story).

    Summary

    This is all Gwen's fault. Merlin never wanted a stupid smartphone in the first place. Now, he has a smartphone and a supercilious, posh git bullying him on Whatsapp. He really should block the prat.

    or

    The one where Merlin doesn't block the prat and finds out that, maybe, smartphones aren't so bad after all.

    Summary

    Arthur huddles a bit deeper in his cloak and smiles to himself. Merlin thinks he’s so subtle, and perhaps he is to the eye of an outsider, but Arthur knows Merlin.

    If anything, Arthur knows Merlin better than even himself.

    He knows the straight slope of Merlin’s nose, the two freckles just above the boy’s right eye, and he knows how Merlin will pout when he’s particularly frustrated with Arthur. He knows how Merlin’s hair will misbehave when the weather is hot and humid, how the corners of his mouth twitch when he tries not to laugh at one of Arthur’s awful jokes, or what a loud drunk the boy is after several cups of honeyed mead.

    And Arthur knows of the shimmering gold in Merlin’s eyes.
