Thy walked down the stairs together, hand in hand. Arthur could hear the rumbustious noises of the pack in the kitchen. Breakfast was usually a bit of a free for all. As he and Merlin came to the threshold he coughed.
Immediately the kitchen fell silent and the whole pack, including Kilgharrah, turned to observe them.
“I think we should do this in the living room,” Arthur said.
“Agreed,” Kilgharrah replied. “It's good to see you mated, Alpha.”
Kilgharrah rarely used Arthur's title and Arthur appreciated the conciliatory gesture. He took Merlin into the living room, the whole pack following. The air was tense but in anticipation, and excitement. Arthur brought Merlin to the front of the room and the rest of the pack stood up in a line in front of them.
“This is my mate; Merlin,” Arthur said, beginning the formal introduction. “Do you all recognise him as such.”
The rest of the pack chorused. “Yes, Alpha.”
“Then you'll accept him as a member of the pack and mate to your Alpha? To be respected as such?”
It was Lancelot who knelt first. “I will.”
Arthur brought Merlin over. “Just put your hand on his head and say 'Thank you.'” he whispered.
Merlin nodded. He was nervous but also seemed to be pleased. He reached out his hand and put it lightly on Lancelot’s head.
“Thank you,” he said, and them removed it.
Gwaine knelt next. “I will.”
This time Merlin needed no prompting, seeming more confident as he placed his hand on Gwaine's head.. “Thank you.”
Leon was next and then Elyan and Percival. Each in turn knelt and accepted Merlin’s new place as part of the pack. Merlin took it all very seriously and didn't make a single mistake as he thanked each of them. It was another sign Arthur knew Merlin was destined to be his mate.
Finally they came to Kilgharrah. The pack elder had always been difficult when accepting other members of the pack as his words had never seemed heartfelt. Arthur was worried he'd cause trouble for Merlin but to Arthur's surprise there was only a small delay before Kilgharrah knelt.
“I will,” he said.
“Thank you,” Merlin replied. It sounded as if she knew how rare the pack elder's submission was.
Once that was done Arthur spoke again. “Thank you for accepting my mate. May our pack prosper and be strong. To Camelot!”
The others, now standing repeated it. “To Camelot!”
Arthur was pleased to hear Merlin shout out their pack name as well.
“Right, now that's done let's eat,” Arthur said.
He didn't need to tell anyone twice as there was a rapid scramble to get back to the kitchen. Arthur decided to linger a little longer.
“You did really well,” he told Merlin. Sipping his arms around him.
“I couldn’t show up the pack Alpha could I?” Merlin replied.
Arthur kissed him, revelling in the feeling Merlin was finally his and finally accepted by the pack. He was about to suggest perhaps they could skip breakfast when Gwaine appeared at the door.
“I know you're a wise and magnanimous Alpha, Arthur,” Gwaine said. “And you wouldn't want your pack to go hungry because they were waiting for you and your mate to take their first bite.”
Merlin's stomach rumbled in agreement.
“We'll be right there,” Arthur said. Taking Merlin's hand he led him to where the rest of the pack were waiting in the kitchen.

I love that you included how the Camelot pack was formed. I feel bad that Arthur's father hated him for something that wasn't his fault. But he's got a loving family now, so it's all good. Thanks for the update, dear author. =)
