Oh my gosh it has been forever since I have updated this story. Sorry for the long wait...but you will wait no longer :) here is the update! I finally know where I'm going with this story! Yay, so sorry for the long wait :)

Arthur

After explaining everything to Guinevere she sat with utter shock. I sighed at her distressed face and moved to grasp her hand firmly, giving it a squeeze. My poor Guinevere, she has been through so much and does not deserve to suffer like this. I glanced up, it was close to midday when Agrivaine and Lancelot's trials would take place.

"Love, do you want me to attend the trials alone? I don't want to put you through more distress," I asked hoping she would accept my offer. But in my heart I already knew that I wouldn't like her answer.

Guinevere

I stared off into space as Arthur finished talking about what happened last night. I looked down seeing a red mark around my wrist with a heart symbol with three rings of fire surrounding it.

My mind puzzled filled with questions and wonders. An enchanted bracelet? Lancelot came back! When? Agrivaine tried to kill me? I lost my memory last night? It felt like days, all I could remember was the tournament and Arthur handing me a ring of flowers smiling at me. But now I was supposedly attacked almost killed and had memory loss.

I shivered leaning into Arthur's embrace not realizing he was speaking to me. "What huh? Sorry Arthur, I was lost in thought, what did you say?" I asked wrapping my arms around his neck and leaned my forehead on his, wanting to feel closer to him.

He sighed and began to trace his hands up and down my back hoping to calm me, "would you like to attend Lancelot and Agrivaine's trials with me? Or do you want to stay here?" he asked again.

I sighed heavily, "Arthur I don't want to go but I feel like I should be there. But what if Agrivaine or Lancelot try to attack again or..." I began to tremble, holding on to Arthur closer, hoping to feel safe in his presence.

"Shh my love your alright. I won't let anything happen to you no matter what you decide, so just calm down," Arthur whispered squeezing me tightly around the waist. "You don't have to come I would rather have you stay out of harm anyway."

"No Arthur I will go with you. I need to see for myself why Lancelot would do this," I said sadly, wondering why everything always happened to us. "Arthur, why does this always happen?" I sobbed, leaning into him.

"Oh my love, I don't know. I'm so sorry," Arthur whispered stroking my hair. BONG! BONG! I jumped as the clock echoed through the castle, signaling the time for the trials.

"Lets go get this over with my love," Arthur said grabbing my hand and lead me to the door. I took a deep breath before grasping his hand tightly and opened the door, as he led me through the door and out into the hallway.

I shifted nervously from my position in Arthur's throne as we waited for the knights to bring up Lord Agrivaine and Lancelot from the dungeons. Over to my right Gaius and Merlin were standing against an alcove in a deep silent discussion while Arthur was silently pacing back and fourth in front of the throne, keeping his hands on his sword hilt.

Unsure of what to do I shifted around in the chair nervously again and glanced back down at my arm. For some reason I could not keep my eyes off of the burn mark and the strange ringed fire heart on my palm. I sighed heavily realizing that I could have betrayed Arthur last night and I could have been banished from Camelot, and that scared me more then anything. Realizing I could have lost the one person I cared about than anyone else in this world. I then looked up at Arthur who smiled a little meeting my eyes with his. "Are you ok Guinevere? I can do this alone," he said with concern as I shifted in my seat again.

I shook my head no and slowly stood up walking over to him. "Arthur I don't think we should be apart right now and you need to stay calm," I said wrapping my arms around his neck, leaning into him.

"I am calm," he replied a little too harshly while wrapping one of his arms around my waist, pulling me closer.

"Arthur stop it," I mumbled pulling his face down and kissed his lips for a moment. "Better," I asked feeling his tense muscles relax against me as he wrapped his other arm around me and laid his forehead on mine.

"Yes, I'm sorry love but I am on edge at the moment. And I can't stop thinking about how I almost lost you and what could have happened. It scares me," he said capturing my lips again. I sighed heavily moving one of my hands into his hair as he pulled me closer to him.

"Arthur it...it scares me too. If you didn't come out of your chambers..." I gave a shudder at the memory. "But we should not think about that now because we still have each other and we caught your uncle and Lancelot before anything did happen. So just be happy we're together, alright?" I said hoping to keep him at bay.

He sighed heavily, glancing into my eyes and then nodded before moving in to kiss me once more. I gave a relieved breath not realizing that I was holding one and relaxed against him. Boom! I jumped slightly before turning and seeing the knights escorting Arthur's Uncle and Lancelot into the room. I felt my skin crawl as I met Agrivaine's gaze and felt Arthur's arms tighten around me.

I squeezed him once more before walking over and sitting in the throne, Arthur following and standing by my side. I looked up to also see Merlin and Gaius move up on my other side as we faced the knights, who were holding Lancelot and Agrivaine across from us. The room was silent for a long while, especially since this was private hearing aside from the guards outside.

I then began to shift in my seat again getting nervous and unsure of what to do. Should I speak first? Or is Arthur going to? I thought glancing up at him. He was still as a statue, arms crossed, muscles tense and his gaze focused as he glared down at his Uncle. I felt myself nod as I watched him answering my own question. He is trying to keep his cool and I know his focus face so I better not interrupt him.

Arthur

What do I say? Do I allow them to explian?...no. Guinevere almost died i cant allow anything to happen to her, I thought glaring at my Uncle and Lancelot with my arms crossed.

"My Lord why am I here? I have not done anything," Agrivaine said looking up and glaring back at me.

I fumed not believing what I was hearing. "Really Uncle?," I spat. "I can think of a few things like I don't know...trying to harm and abduct the future Queen of Camelot right outside my doorway. And doing my sister's dirty work to sabotage my wedding with him," I yelled, releasing my anger and pointing to Lancelot.

"I was helping her, I saw her collapsed and was going to take her to Gaius," Agrivaine said defensively with a sneer.

I gritted my teeth seeing right through his lie. "Then why would you not take her to me first? My door was right there Uncle."

"I was trying to help-"

"MY LORD AGRIVAINE," I jumped in suprise as Guinevere burst from her chair yelling at him. She then began to walk towards him in rage but I jumped into action catching her waist pulling her closer to my body as she was yelling at my Uncle. "YOU HEARD ME SCREAMING FOR ARTHUR AND GRABBED ME FROM BEHIND. YOU TOLD ME THAT I WOULDN'T RUIN THE PLAN AND YOU WOULD GET ME TO LANCELOT SO EVERYTHING WAS IN PLACE AND...and" I felt her energy give out as she slumped next to me, glaring at Agrivaine with hate.

"My Lord you can clearly see she is lying and does not want you to see that she has affections for Lancelot. I was trying to stop her from betraying you," Agrivaine spat back before glaring up at me.

For a moment I almost believed him, things would have been so much easier if that were the case but I then felt Guinevere stiffen at his words and grip me tighter. No she would never do that to me. I love her and she loves me, nothing will change that. Also the magic is there, I thought glancing down at her burned wrist. "Uncle," I said gently grabbing Guinevere's wrist and holding it up for everyone to see. "How do you explain this marking on her hand? Or the burn that is around her wrist?"

"The mark of the love burn bracelet, the symbol is called Love's Burn," Lancelot said causing both Guinevere and I to jump and glance at him for the first time since he entered the room.

"The what?" I asked.

"The love burn bracelet. Look my lord I am done with this charade, my soul can't take this any longer. I was only sent here to help break up your wedding and that plan failed. So all I ask is for my soul to be put back to rest and in exchange I will tell you anything you want to know," Lancelot said tiredly.

"What do you mean Lancelot?" Guinevere asked confused.

"My Lady I'm not the person you think I am. I am not this Lancelot fellow, but a shell of a man that does not exist anymore. I was conjured by the Lady Morgana and her partner Lord Agrivaine and was told to give you the bracelet. Then have you meet me in the night where Agrivaine would lure the king to us and then your wedding would be off."

"My lord he is lying. He is plotting with that serving wench-"

"You will hold your tongue Uncle, your already caught so stop lying," Arthur spat before nodding his head for Lancelot to continue.

"My lord that is all I know. Well there is one more thing... Morgana plans to attack the city with the warlord Helios once Lord Agrivaine gets plans from the city. But I am not sure when that plan will take action," Lancelot finished.

"They are lying, its their plan to deceive you. That girl is plotting with him to overthrow you And turn you against me. Can't you see that Arthur?" Agrivaine protested again.

"Stop it Uncle, you are guilty and I will figure out your punishment later. Percival, Gwaine take him back to the dungeons. I will deal with him later," I said angrily nodding my head to the knights to take him away.

"You will regret this Arthur. I am your only living family left, you will regret this I know you will. I mean a serving girl as Queen, your father would have never allowed that. She is a worthless nobody..." Agrivaine protested as he was dragged from the room.

Well what do you think of this update? I am so exited for posting this! And I promise I know where this is going now so it will be updated more quickly.
