A/N: So for everyone the next chapter of this story. This chapter will be mostly smut as I wanted to write it, since we had several chapters without some intimate Merthur. After this chapter there will be like one or two more chapters. So please enjoy this chapter and let me know what you thought of it.

A soft groan left Merlin's lips as he woke up... he felt the soft bed sheets around him, the warmth of the sun shining on his face and he carefully opened his eyes. For a moment panicking that he was still in Guy's hands, but as he recognized his surroundings he calmed back down.

He slowly lifted himself up on his elbows, eyeing the empty room, Arthur's room. The memories started to return to him, how his king rescued him, how Guy died, how... how he killed Morgana. His eyes widened in shock and pain as his hands reached for his mouth. 'I killed her... I killed Morgana.' A single tear rolled over his cheek at the thought that he killed someone, she may have been a wicked and dark woman, but did she deserved to die?

He knew that she had killed many and that she had to be stopped, but... he should have thought of something else.

He shook his head and he almost jumped out of bed, hissing in pain as his hands shot to his stomach. He slowly looked down, eyeing the bandages around his waist and chest. It was the only thing he was wearing, the rest of his body was naked and he quickly wrapped himself into one of the sheets as he felt the cold breeze against his skin.

Merlin looked around, not completely sure what he should be doing, he really wanted to go to Arthur, but.. but he couldn't go like this. A small smile spread over his lips.

He turned around and made his way towards Arthur's desk, eyeing the mess of papers and he rolled his eyes, the king could really do nothing without him. But the smile soon fell as he noticed the dates on the papers... they were still from the day Morgana and Guy had taken him, Arthur left all his work behind to find him... no, he wasn't surprised, but still...

Just as he held the papers in his hands the door swung open and Arthur came inside. The king eyes shifted immediately towards the bed, eyes going wide as he didn't saw the raven in it. Panic spread through the man's eyes. 'Merlin!'

'I'm here Arthur.'

The king's head snapped around and he gapped at Merlin before he quickly made his way towards him, throwing his arms around the warlock as he pulled the smaller man towards him. 'Merlin... oh, Merlin.' He mumbled in his neck.

'A-arthur... can't breathe.'

The blond immediately pushed away, eyeing the other with much concern and fear. 'You should be in bed, why aren't you in bed?'

Merlin smiled at him. 'Arthur, I'm fine.'

'No, you're not!' Arthur said stern as he let his hand slide softly over the bandages. 'You're not...' Without another word he lifted Merlin up, holding the man in bridal style as he walked with him towards the bed, laying him carefully on the soft mattress. 'And now stay!' Merlin sighed as he nodded, knowing that Arthur was too stubborn. The blond's face slowly softened as he spoke his next words with worry. 'You have been asleep for almost four days.'

Merlin gapped at him. 'What?!' He looked stunned in those blue eyes, four whole days... four days... 'Really?'

Arthur nodded as he pulled the raven to his chest. 'We all have been so worried, I have been so worried. You fainted after you... killed Morgana.' Merlin shivered slightly hearing those words. 'We-.'

'How is Gwaine?' Merlin suddenly interrupted as he remembered the brunette.

'He's fine.' Arthur said with a reassuring smile. 'Gaius just said that he needed some rest and yesterday he came back to training... or better said; Percival dragged him out of bed as he decided that his lover was healthy enough and that he was overreacting.' Both chuckled slightly. 'We were all more worried about you, Gaius didn't know what was wrong with you and when you wouldn't wake up...' He could clearly hear the panic in Arthur's voice.

'But I'm awake now, aren't I.' Merlin said in return as he tried to calm the other down. He slowly leaned in, kissing the king's lips before going down. He kissed his chin before trailing down to his neck and left shoulder. Arthur shuddered under him and a slight moan left the blond's lips.

'M-Mer-lin... D-don't.'

The warlock moaned against his skin. 'Why?' Was the only word that left his lips as he brushed his hands under the king's red shirt, over those strong muscles and those many battle scars. A slight grin spread over his lips, he hadn't imagined that he would be so horny after just waking up and he could see Arthur felt the same.

But without a warning he was pushed back by the blond's strong arms. The king looking at him with a mix of pain, guilt and lust. 'No, we can't.' Merlin opened his mouth to oppose, but was stopped as Arthur placed his hand over his lips. 'You just woke up and are still hurt.'

The warlock groaned in disappointment. 'But I want you... I can handle it, we just need to go easy.' With that said he returned to kissing the swordsman, pulling the man's shirt over his head, exposing his naked chest. 'You look incredible.'

'Merlin.' Arthur said in a low growl, but he didn't refuse the touch and even let his hands reach for his lover, but he didn't dare to do too much, fearing he would hurt the other even more. 'I probably can't refuse, right?'

'No, you can't.'

The king grinned at him as he pushed Merlin backwards on the bed before Arthur removed the rest of his cloths. He smiled once more at him, kissing him passionately on the lips before he lifted his own fingers, pushing them pas the warlock's lips and Merlin sucked at his fingers, spreading his own saliva on them.

Immediately as Arthur removed his fingers he again was kissed. 'I love you so much.' Arthur spoke in passion as his hand trailed down towards his lover's entrance. A finger circled around it before Arthur pushed one finger in.

But as Arthur did this something in Merlin snapped and his mind filled itself with panic, his breathing fastened as he arched his back. For a moment he saw Guy's face in front of him, that wicked laugh and dark touch. The king immediately retreated sitting upwards as he watched his lover with shock. 'Merlin?... Merlin, calm down!' He himself said in a panicked voice as he pulled his lover against his chest.

'Am sorry... I... sorry.' Merlin mumbled as he leaned in, searching for Arthur's warmth.

'Sshh.. It's okay.' The king reassured him as he brushed through his lover's black hair. '... We should stop.'

Merlin looked shocked up, knowing that if they would stop now he would only remember Guy's touch. 'No, please... I... I need you, your touch.' He leaned upwards, brushing his lips softly on the blond's. 'Please, touch me.'

Arthur gulped, but nodded as he returned them in their earlier position. Merlin saw the hesitation in the other's eyes, but the king's hand brushed again down, resting on the raven's entrance before again pushing in. Merlin hissed, again panic spread through his mind, but he quickly shook it out, trying to relax his muscles. The blond looked at him with worry in his eyes, waiting for the other to say that he had to retreat again, but the warlock gave him a soft smile, encouraging him to go on.

The finger inside him moved again and Merlin groaned at his touch, soon a second finger was added, scissoring the muscles as the warlock started to pant under him. Merlin felt himself completely hard, his cock painfully throbbing against his own stomach. 'Mmm... I- I wan-t you... in-side.'

Arthur chuckled slightly as his eyes were filled with pleasure and lust, but the king knew that he had to prepare his lover, not wanting to hurt him more then he needed, so he resumed his preparation, adding a third finger until he found the other prepared enough.

He pulled his fingers out and placed a passionate kiss on the raven's lips as he placed the warlock's legs on his shoulders. He positioned himself before Merlin and slowly pushed in. Merlin groaned at the intrusion, pain piercing through his body and he fisted the sheets before pleasure took over. Arthur paused for a moment, letting the warlock adjust at his large cock inside of him before he began to trust, first slowly before going faster.

Merlin screamed Arthur's name as the king pounded in him. The blond's hand reaching for Merlin's skinny thighs so he could pull the raven even further onto his shaft as he trusted in. The king searched for the right spot in Merlin, every single time he trusted in and when he finally found it Merlin screamed in pleasure, white spreading in front of his eyes as Arthur kept hitting that one single spot inside Merlin. The raven wasn't able to hold out much longer and with another trust he came, his cum spread over their chest as his muscles tightened around Arthur's large cock. The king groaned, feeling the tightness and with a few more trusts he spurted his white liquid deep inside his small lover.

Both moaned as Arthur pulled out, letting himself fall down next to the warlock as they searched for their breaths. Merlin felt how the warm liquid slowly dripped out of him, feeling the warmth that Arthur had given him and he curled himself up against the king's chest. This was where he belonged.
