Summary
"Having been near you all these years, I am not unaware of the goings on of court, or the way you nobles like to do things.” He gives a half smile at that but doesn’t convince himself of his own humor, “I also know… that when a new king comes to power, he inherits his predecessor’s information network. His spies.”
Arthur leans back, folding his arms and narrowing his eyes, “That’s true, Merlin. I’ve been expecting whomever my father’s last spymaster was to come to me for days now. Do you know who it is?”
Don’t fidget. Don’t shift your weight. Goddess take you, Merlin, stand still. He clears his throat, “It was Gaius for a long time.”
The young king relaxes an imperceptible amount, and nods, “He’d have access to everyone, from villager to noble, and friendly relationships with most. Who is it now?”
Merlin stares at him, then spreads his palms helplessly, “Me.”
Merlin is Camelot’s spymaster and must reveal himself as such to Arthur when he becomes king.

Merlin's family shines throughout. Very cool spy premise. Epilogue perfect for mother's Day.

Beautiful 💞
“If you call me friend,” Arthur says roughly, looking into the eyes of this man that is not a man, “then I would be one to you always.” -

Summary
He opens his eyes and looks down at the simple dark cover.
There was little he’d been able to salvage from the time he had with his father, the most significant being the merlin pendant he’d gifted him in a moment of pure love that now hung solemnly around the prince’s neck. The charmed silver has survived the dragon flame, but the rest left to him had been tucked away in a pack meant for a few days travel. Small knives and supplies, a water canteen, and the few possessions the man had wanted to keep from his old life.
Three books. Two letters. One ring.
He sighs away his thoughts, touching the book named Heritage and running his finger under its cover as it creaks open in gentle groan of pleasure, flipping the first smooth page until he reaches the ornate scribbling of dark ink that stains the empty space.
"The taming of dragons is not a safe practice for any man of unsure heart. Dragons are a wild and ancient race, and bonding settles a weight of time and trust onto the soul of a man that should be borne neither by the unprepared nor the unworthy..."
A continuation of my dragonlord!Merlin fic
