Summary: Arthur tugged sharply on Merlin's neck and leaned forward to growl in his ear. "Fine. If you want to serve me so badly, then I'll teach you what that means."

Recs and Reviews

  • "Arthur finally notices that none of the servants will sleep with him any more, and curiously, Merlin is somehow always nearby."[4]
  • "Arthur finally figures out why no one will sleep with him (hint-it’s Merlin’s fault) He liked to think of himself as an observant person and a good judge of character, which was necessary in a future king, but he had to admit that he had been rather blindsided by the force of nature that was Merlin."[5]
