Summary: Arthur is not jealous that Mordred spends so much time with Merlin. He's not.

Author's Notes: I really hope that you enjoy this fic, it was nice to continue exploring something different from what I usually focus on in this fandom. I absolutely love Mordred, so I liked making him feel like part of the family.

Title: She Knows
Recipient: mustbethursday3
Author: purely_distel
Rating: PG-13
Pairings: Arthur/Gwen
Word Count: 1596
Warnings: brainwashed!Gwen/dark!Gwen, highlight to read: *character death*
Summary: It is easy to love Arthur Pendragon in the safety of darkness and secrecy. Loving him any other way, though, brings nothing but pain and death. She knows that now.
Author's Notes:
God, where did this come from? I started out writing a modern AU story with Merlin dragging Gwen to a medieval meet-up in the middle of December. That story involved the words “She was going to kill Merlin Emrys. With men's undies. Slowly.” and then I realised if I wanted finish it, it would turn into a 30.000-odd words story and I simply did not have the time so I needed to change. I went over your prompts again and read “Dark!Gwen” and … yeah, this is what came out of THAT particular plotbunny … it's more sad than dark, though.

ALL my thanks go to my super-fast-and-super-awesome beta D who tackled this little piece and shaped it and told me what was wrong with it. THANK YOU SO MUCH LOVE!
