Lady execution Levi Ackerman x OC (ENG) 18+

Chapter XVII.

Sweaty and out of breath, he stopped near to the entrance to the underground, where he and Theia had entered a few days ago. He tied the horse and went to the stairs, but the guard stopped him.

"Hey young man, where are you think you are going?" One of them asked, holding out a hand towards Levi to stop him from passing. He frowned.

"I was here a week ago, let me in," he said calmly.

"What if you were here a week ago? Today is today and I don't have permission to let you go," Levi angrily grabbed him by the collar and pulled him to him.

"Theia's down there and she's in the danger, so get out of my way!" Levi growled.

"Hey, you don't know him? It's Levi from the scouts, let him go," the other said boredly, moving out of the way, chewing a piece of cake he held in his greasy hands. Levi ran down the stairs to the underground. He immediately headed for the place where his house stood. Only a pile of ashes remained it anymore.

"She said you wouldn't risk your life for her," a slimy voice said.

"You even left your hole for me?" Levi turned to the older man leaning on a gilded mallet. Immediately a few men ran towards him and disarmed him of his equipment and weapons. He let it.

"I don't know what you were taking it for when you knew we were going to take it from you," man chuckled and looked him over. "So famous bandit Levi is now playing an honorable soldier licking the king's heels," he walked closer to him as they put the chains on him. He was silent. "What did they promise you? Happy life on the top, wealth, woman. Soldiers must be popular among whores," he laughed along with his buddies. Levi was still silent. "Or is it only Isabel that matters to you?" Levi frowned. Isabell? Rat crouched down to him. "You're going to experience hell for everything you've done to me," he whispered in his ear.

"Where is she?" He finally uttered his first words.

"Don't worry, I will allow you to have a romantic meeting," he smiled and ordered Levi to be led towards their mansion. They dragged him, like Theia before, into the great hall, where she sat chained to a pillar. Her leg was swollen, as was her face, where she had received a few blows. She couldn't believe her eyes when she saw a group coming where Levi was walking in the center.

"No..." she whispered to herself. Levi immediately checked her condition with his eyes and felt relieve that she was fine. They forced him to kneel.

"So, my children. I would like to explain to you why we are actually here," Rat began and he poured himself a glass of wine, which he drank immediately. "We're here because this little son of a bitch destroyed many of our surface opium shipments over the five years. He destroyed our warehouses and freed many slaves. We never caught him, but today we will finally get revenge," he smiled. "Thanks to you, little one," he caressed Theia's cheek and she angrily pulled away from him. Levi's eyes were covered by hair.

"Keep me but let her go," he asked quietly. Rat laughed.

"Are you really begging me?" He kicked him in the stomach. Levi bent to the ground but he was pulled back up by the chains. Theia clenched her fists. "Tell me Levi, what does the little one mean to you that you came here?" Levi raised his gaze.

"She's a soldier and the daughter of a scout unit captain. If something happens to her, the entire military police will rush in and leave no one alive," he hissed angrily, and Theia couldn't believe what he just said. Rat laughed.

"And how am I supposed to trust you now? I know Isabel, she is from the underground, you can't fool me!" He almost choked on laughter. Another blow to the face followed. Levi straightened and looked towards Thea. She was angry. Of course. It's his fault they're in such shit. He looked at the ground again. "I've been thinking all this time about what I'm going to do with you. But now. when I see how far you can go for that little one..." He lit a cigar and ordered with his hand to untie Theia from the pillar and pull her to them. They threw her to the ground in front of Levi, who was watching her indignantly. He started breathing rapidly. "How about we have some fun," One of the helpers kicked Theia in the ribs until they moved her to the ground. Levi gritted his teeth.
