Summary: An Arthur's POV remix of The Pact by Cori Lannam.
The Albion Pact demands that the Prince of Wales must take someone magic born as his soul-bonded consort by the time he is thirty or face death.
Prince Arthur Pendragon's thirtieth birthday has come and gone and he is getting sicker by the day. With little time left to act, Arthur knows what he must do to save himself: he has to call in a boyhood promise made by Merlin Emrys, his best friend and very talented Detective Inspector Warlock...the same best friend Arthur's been in love with for half his life.
But how can Arthur ask the man he loves more than anything to give up everything he's worked so hard for? Arthur is not sure that he can...and the indecision just might kill him.
Author Notes: In reading The Pact (which is on my bookmarks list; I re-read it often), I often found myself trying to imagine the story from Arthur's point of view. So when I received my assignment for Camelot Remix, I was in equal measures ecstatic and terrified when I received Cori Lannam as my giftee.
I was ridiculously thrilled to have the opportunity to remix one of my favorite stories and truly inspired to bring to light Arthur's thoughts and motivations. I was also scared witless that I was going to completely cock up the world that was so painstakingly created.
Cori, I truly hope that you feel that I have done your world--and your version of the characters in it--justice!
I also need to give HUGE thanks to my beta (whom I will name after the reveal)! She was amazing and fantastic and went well above and beyond the call of duty to help me make this story the best it could be.
Thanks also to my two friends (you know who you are) who played cheerleader/therapist to my squeeing and whinging along with my beta. You all kept me sane, and I love you for it so much! <3
