Chapter 45: Reincarnation

The blond comes into the world first, demanding as always. Another life would not change that.

The brunette follows only a minute after, for the soul within would never be parted from his king.

They grow up. Protecting each other as they always had. They are twenty-one when they remember who they were. Surprisingly, it's Arthur who remembers first. However, Merlin follows his lead as always, and he remembers a month later. When they fully grasp both their past and present lives, they can't help grinning at each other.

They had always been brothers.

This life just made it official.
