Summary
Arthur Pendragon and Merlin were literally from two different worlds. One is a prince from a great kingdom and the other a common farm boy from the next kingdom over. These two should have never met.
But that was before they realized their parents were once friends and arranged the two of them to marry when they reached adulthood. That was before Uther turned on magic and Hunith went on the run with her infant son.
Now almost twenty years have passed and these two boys have grown into men. Camelot knights have found Hunith and come to collect her son.
Will Merlin survive this new world he has been thrusted into? A peasant among royals, a sorcerer among those that would have him killed if they found out. Can Merlin even begin to hope for happiness when the prince he is forced to marry wants nothing to do with him?
Follows canon but with my own arranged marriage spin to it

Summary
In the moments that it took the new emperor to slide his sword out from the corpse of his brother, Tanju came to the only possible decision. He threw himself onto the ground and prostrated himself—knees, elbows, forehead all desperately kissing the cool marble—even as he cried into it, "Long live the emperor!"
Ardashir's boots came into view first, then the tip of his sword, held loosely at his side, dripping a trail of blood behind him. When he stopped walking, the drips began to gather into a pool. "You wish me to live long?"
~
In the aftermath of a bloody coup, the emperor's consort finds himself desperate to stay alive. His body and his magic are all he has to offer, for the one who possesses these will also possess the throne.

Summary
Young Lord Nickel Wren might not realize it, but when he acquires an abused and badly behaved slave boy out of pity, he’s trying to buy himself both love and purpose. It might be a big mistake, but the question is if he learns anything at all from these life-lessons. For Taven, the once nameless slave who had lost all hope, there will be care, affection and safety the like of which he never could have dreamed. Emotionally stunted, aggressive and untrusting, he will eventually learn to open up and care about others, but is love possible, or is he only trapped in a snaring web of gratitude? An unexpected disaster forces them both to face these questions.

Summary
It's been three months since Ian stepped foot into Meibvre Academy, one of the most prestigious universities in the city. He came here seeking peace—an escape from his past, a place where he could disappear into solitude. But no matter how far he runs, misfortune clings to him like a shadow. Lately, that shadow has started to feel disturbingly real.
An eerie sense of being watched has followed him everywhere. At first, he chalked it up to paranoia—just another trick of his overactive mind. But the signs are undeniable. The subtle echoes of footsteps trailing too close behind, his trash mysteriously disappearing, apartment door unlocked when he was certain he had locked it. Every small, inexplicable detail feeding into his growing unease, pushing his patience to its limit.
And now, he finally has a suspect.
Valeu, Meibvre’s golden boy. Charismatic, well-liked, and effortlessly charming, he’s everything Ian is not. And yet, for reasons Ian can’t fathom, Val has been orbiting him since their first class together, always appearing where Ian least expects him.
