Tainted (Levi x Reader)

Sneak peek & A/N

A/N
Okay so aside from getting my ass kicked by college, I've written up some plot points and STARTED a sequel. I have like 1300 words so far.

Below is a little sneak peek from that, but I'll probably wait until season 4 part 2 begins airing before I write enough to publish. I know that's so far away, but I think seeing it animated will help motivate me.

The title I have right now for it is Cleansed, and the cover is pictured above. Enjoy this small snippet!

Wisps of steam rose from the cup held by the man sitting at the table, his peculiar way of holding his drink attracting the attention of those sitting across from him under the low light. At his side, his long time friend examined a weapon with obvious fascination.

"You are married, Mr. Ackerman?" a tall woman with short blonde hair asked, noting the gleam of a simple silver band on his finger. What'd she call herself again? Selena? No... Yelena?

His friend, Hange, looked up with a grin. "He's a grump, so it's hard to believe, right? I can't believe he managed to snag someone like (Y/n)—she's such a badass!"

Yelena's face remained unchanged as she nodded, but thoughts were brewing underneath as that name caught her attention. She was a woman of many objectives, and recently, another had been added to her plate. Her boss had acquired a quick ally in Paradis, a dangerous one, who made simple and irresistible demands. This ally would supply him with resources, in exchange for two people. One was named Anya, the other was (Y/n) Ackerman. Bringing them in dead was acceptable, but alive would increase favor, which meant an increase in support and goods. Zeke had insisted on the latter, but he wanted to hold out on taking the deal, until after trying to establish one with the military of Paradis.

(Y/n). The wife of the one these people call Humanity's Strongest, a woman who is wanted dead or alive by a shadowy organization. Yelena wondered what she must be like, given her reputation. As for the other target, Anya, how did she figure into it? Their potential ally hadn't given them much more than names to go on.

If Zeke really was unable to make this alliance with those running Paradis... Yelena would have to capture or kill both targets. Until those orders were given, she was content to settle in, and get to know her prey a little bit.
