Summary
"Gwaine's mouth fell open and he reached for his sword "You're a sorcerer" he more stated than asked.
Merlin had thought about telling Gwaine many times before. Lancelot was sure that he would be understanding and had tried to get him to tell him for months now. He was expecting a lot of things hurt pain betrayal what he was not expecting was the rage that burned in Gwaine's eyes. The disgust that lurked there too. He didn't realize until this moment how much that hatred and disgust would hurt. It felt like a million razors were trying to dig his heart out. Before he could even begin to answer Gwaine had turned and was yelling for the guards."

Summary
Arthur is captured while scouting Cenred's territory and thrown into a dungeon cell. He's not alone—his cellmate is Merlin, a mysterious prisoner who somehow recognizes Arthur as royalty despite his disguise, and who tries to keep spirits light even as he's dragged away daily by guards.
Arthur quickly realizes something is terribly wrong. Merlin is dying, slowly drained by strange manacles and Cenred's hunger for magic. Over days and weeks, Arthur watches helplessly as the cycle repeats: recovery, torture, deterioration. He falls for the strange, brilliant boy who jokes through agony and shields Arthur from darkness.
