Hi! Hime here! :D

This is my second Merlin fanfic! I'll do the sequel to the first Merlin fanfic when this one is completed. :)

Hope you like it!

Btw, I do not own Merlin!

Mordred was angry, "Tell me you wouldn't do the same, for the woman you love."

"Don't be foolish," Merlin told him.

Mordred shook his head and turned, ready to walk away but Merlin's next words stopped him in his tracks.

"You really love her don't you?"

Mordred turned back at the older man, facing him. "More than anything"

"Anything? As in, you love her enough to help her escape, leave the kingdom, your knighthood and all the friends you have made here? You love her enough to be charged with treason? You really love her that much?"

Even though Merlin asked all these things, he didn't sound skeptical, he sounded like he knew the answers already but he just wanted to hear Mordred say it.

But Mordred answered firmly anyway, "Yes."

Merlin smiled at his response, "If that's the case, I'll help you."

Mordred's eyes widened, completely shocked at first but soon enough, his face formed a look of skepticism.

"You? Want to help me? You never liked me Merlin! You-!"

"That's because I was wary of you Mordred!"

Merlin's calm voice had grown into an angry shout.

Mordred held his breath, he had never seen Merlin angry and from what he heard, it was a rare occurrence to begin with.

Merlin took a deep breath to calm himself before speaking again, "You…Arthur likes you a lot…so…"

"So you want to help me for Arthur's sake?"

Mordred had to admit, he felt a little disappointed hearing Merlin wasn't offering his help for him but for Arthur.

"Arthur would be devastated if you leave and betray him. He's been through enough as it is." Merlin admitted.

"Yet, it's okay for you to risk yourself to save Kara? Just so I won't get in trouble?"

Merlin frowned, "Did I say I'll be the one going to save her?"

Mordred blinked, confused, "But you said-"

"I said I'll help. I know someone who can bust out Kara and take her to safety" Merlin clarified.

Mordred raised an eyebrow then, "Who could that be?"

Merlin smiled then; a small smile Mordred had never seen before, a slight smug smile that pulled at the corner of his cheek that resembled much like a smirk.

Finally, he answered Mordred's question, "My wife of course."

Mordred gaped at Merlin then, "Wha-?"

"You can't risk yourself getting caught and neither can I so the next best thing is my wife because frankly; Gauis can't do it. He's too old for that."

Mordred was blinking again; this time, out of surprise but Merlin continued anyway.

"You go down to the tavern and drink, the knights are there thus when Kara escapes, you have an alibi with the knights backing you up and while you're doing that, I'll busy myself with Gauis."

Mordred didn't know what to say even when Merlin came toward him and gripped his shoulders in a reassuring gesture.

"My wife will save Kara Mordred. Don't worry."

After a pat on the shoulder and a calming smile from Merlin, Mordred was left to his own thoughts, alone, in the hallway.

Merlin…has a wife?!

Love it? Hate it?

Review please!

I'd like to know!
