Fics like If my secret had a secret would your secret be negated or would it grow instead?
Arthur had always trained to be the best. He did his work, then did some more and then more still. Yet, his father's eyes never glowed in pride. He was never... Good enough. Never strong or fast enough. Never Alpha enough. He had accepted it. Accepted, that, being born a beta, a beta *Prince* he'd have to work all that much more to prove his worth. He had. But why was it so hard? Merlin never had it easy. But he had his mam, he had his Will and screw the rest, really. Except then, out of the blue, Puberty hit. Now Merlin has it *worse*. Camelot is /not/ a smart place to be. For a secret sorcerer. For a secret, peasant sorcerer. For a secret, peasant, *Alpha* sorcerer. But, well, he'll just keep his head down, learn a healing trade and nothing bad will happen. wHaT cOuLd pOsSibLy gO wRoNg~ or Uther's a dick, Gaius is a doormat for *his* king, Arthur suffers needlessly and Merlin pulls a Merlin because he's Merlin and cannot be anything else but what he is.
