this kinkme_merlin prompt: Arthur/Merlin, with girl Merlin, Modern AU. Gwen breaks up with Arthur and he uses Merlin as rebound. He gets her pregnant and when Merlin sneakily tries to ask about Arthur's stance on children, he tells her that he abhors them and would rather abort a child than raise one. (Maybe because of his upbringing) Pregnant, Merlin moves away and raises her son on her own.
