    Summary

    In the cold and shadowed streets of late 1800s Camelot, Gwaine works until his hands bleed. He is a man drowning in debt, grief and ale, seeking any job that might quiet his thoughts. The town is a stranger to him, filled with ghosts and fog, offering little more than bruised knuckles and sleepless nights. Until one night he meets a man unlike any other.

    Hiding in his old manor, in the town that made him the creature he was, Merlin lives a careful life, veiling his true self from the world. But when a reckless dock worker crosses his path, bleeding and unafraid, Merlin finds his control slipping.

    Or: the one where a centuries-old vampire and a tired, hopeless man fall in love in the Victorian era
