Arthur/Merlin. Uther periodically sends his knights to takeover bordering unprotected land. On one such outing, Arthur attacks Ealdor and claims Merlin for his piece of the loot.

Okay, so this got too long for a comment by a factor of ten, so I'm posting a link here. I hope that's ok.

Oh, very nice. I love how it shifts from Arthur just wanting to conquer something into wanting Merlin for his own sake, not wanting to force him into anything. And the bit at the end, where he says protection is something they're due no matter what, not something to be offered in return for Merlin, is fantastic.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the shift in their relationship, and Arthur.

I suspect the OP wanted something darker and more noncon, but this is what wanted to be written!

I love Arthur in this.

[casspeach]

Thank you!

OP here!!!

I loved how both Arthur's and Merlin's natures just shine through in their interaction. That you chose to make it a non-violent, consensual encounter was such a pleasant surprise.

The fact that Arthur chooses to cajole the win out, cajole Merlin into agreeing rather than force his way, shows what kind of man he is and what kind of king he is going to be.

Hi!

Thank you so much for the prompt - it was brilliant! I really enjoyed writing this.

I'm very glad it worked for you. I kind of love Arthur a ridiculous amount and just couldn't quite buy him as a OMGev0l!oppressor, and especially couldn't buy Merlin as any kind of victim. I mean, the guy could move things with his mind before he could speak!

This is the exact problem I have with every story that has Merlin getting beaten up. I mean, Arthur can cause he lets Arthur and Arthur has been trained to kill since birth. Anyone less than a Knight Champion, it's going to be a whole different story.

pardon my lack of anonymity, but that was a lovely little piece. I quite liked how Merlin turned things around, and how Arthur was slowly but surely brought to his better self.

Thank you!

I totally failed at the anonymous thing on this meme, so no worries on that one in my book :-)

I'm glad you enjoyed the story.

I recently wrote a story that is similiar to the prompt to a degree, so I'm post a link: Give In, Oh Sweet Surrender

Warnings for mention of past non-con and dub-con

[ext_324180]

I recently wrote a story that more or less fills this prompt, if anyone is interested.

It's on riventhorn's Bondage and Slavery Fic Fest.

Warnings, as there aren't really any on the post, are: dub-con (in that it could be seen as coercive, though Merlin's a pretty enthusiastic participant), (kind of) slavery, (mention of) bondage.
