Ymir's Necklace: The Secret You Hold | Levi x Reader

Heart

YOUR POV

'How is this possible?'

Levi stood in silence as he left your question unanswered. A plethora of houghts pondering in your head. The Inn's room was dimly lit, coziness embred the space as the fire kept your body warm.

You looked into his eyes and really observed him. In a matter of seconds, all of the distance you had created between the two of you weighed heavy on your shoulders. You had missed him. Truly missed him.

You had missed the way his eyes would lay on you so intentely, the effect the closeness of his body had on you. It was quite a visceral experience, wanting him. Caring for him.

'Queen Historia, we can only assume...', he let out sternly as he took off his uniform jacket.

Instantly, you did the same thing, placing your coat on a big, old armchar by the fireplace. You then realized you could smell him. His scent. It was comforting and made your body tingle.

'Seems like nobody is willing to fight, though', he sighed. You could tell he was tired by the tone of his voice.

'We will', you affirmed.

'We need help, (Y/n). And I can't help but feel like time is ticking. What if they try to come for you?', he got closer to you as he let out those words.

You could sense fear in his voice now. Still, you did not feel afraid. You were not scared of dying. Not anymore. Your distance from Levi had granted you some perspective, and it brought you to the realization that your only fear laid on what could happen to Levi and your friends.

'We won't allow it', you sighed as you looked at your feet.

'We don't know how many men they have. They most likely have a plan by now, and we seem to have to guess what to do every single day. There is no fucking strategy, no -', but you didn't let him finish.

Right before he could continue expressing his fear, you walked toward him confidently and pressed your lips on his. As you closed your eyes and allowed yourself to melt and burn to the feeling his soft skin against yours, you felt him exhale against your lips.

You slowly caressed his undercut with your fingers and felt his arms snake around your body. There was something so tender about the way he held you - his grip was firm, tight. Yet so caring.

As you pulled away, you looked into his silver eyes, your hand traveling to his jaw as you began speaking again.

'We won't allow it, okay?', your voice was soft. So quiet. Almost as if you were sharing a secret with him.

'Okay', he sighed as he rested his forehead against yours.

________

You opened your eyes suddenly. By the pale moonlight that entered the old wooden windows shields, you guessed it was probably past midnight.

You laid with your back against the comfortable matttess, dressed only in your laced underwear. As you looked to your side, you found Levi's body laying close to you, his arm around your abdomen as he laid on his stomach.

Levi's embrace was so warm you almost forgot it was winter. His eyes were closed but his breathing was deep. yYou knew he was awake.

'You are awake', he whispered, his eyes still closed. His voice was low and raspy, and it made something flip inside your stomach.

It almost pissed you off - just how much of an effect he had on you. You knew you were on the palm of his hand, and yet, that did not scare. Not even for a second.

'I am', you whispered as you turned to your side, your hand traveling to his hair as you caressed him. You softly tucked some strands of his black hair away from his face.

Levi looked so incredibly beautiful in that moment, you wished you could take a mental photograph of him to keep with you forever. His grey eyes looked almost silver under the moonlight. You were secretly in awe of him.

Deep down, you knew you would never forget this moment, even if you tried. Levi then glanced from your eyes down to your lips, and for a moment you forgot how to breathe.

'I've missed you. I've missed this', he let out si lowly he could melt your entire body to the ground.

Your skin burned with a feeling you had become addicted to - this was the Levi effect, the feeling you hadn't been able to shake off ever since you'd met him and that had only grown stronger with time.

Your entire self turned to flames when in contact with Levi's skin, whenever you heard his voice, whenever you knew he was around you. Hell, he didn't even need to be inside you to make you long for him. Long for his touch, for his presence.

But god, how did you love to feel him inside you. To become one with each other.

Levi slowly turned to his side and faced your body, his arm still holding your waist as his fingers caressed your skin. You suddenly became very aware of the fact that he was only dressed in his boxers. You knew that, but he sheet covering his body moved slightly and god, you could see his abs.

'Please...', you whispered. His eyes then landed on your lips as you felt his body grow closer to yours - his chest now pressed against your chest, skin on skin, soul on soul.

The room was so quiet. The only sounds were the labored breaths you and Levi released with anticipation. You felt as if the tension could kill you right then.

'Please, Levi...'

His lips grazed yours so slow you could feel your heart skip a beat. You could only guess Levi quite enjoyed teasing you like this, but it felt like the most thrilling torture you had ever endured.

Your hands travelled to his neck, his jaw, then the back of his head. You had to feel him. All of him.

With your fingers laced in his hair, you pleaded with your body. His warmth consumed you as you sighed in ecstasy

And then you heard him.

Levi took a deep breath as he pressed his lips against yours in such a passionate, desperate way. He exhaled against the kiss, sending shivers down your spine.

You felt his tongue graze against yours and you quickly allowed him to bite on your lower lip as he descended to your neck and your chest. It was so desperate, needy. Yet tantalizing.

You let out whispered sighs as you continued to loose yourself to his touch. In one swift motion, he placed himself on top of your body, your legs around his waist as he held both of your wrists to the sides of your head.

Levi looked into your eyes so deeply you were sure his gaze could stop you from breathing. An uncontrollable hunger took over his steek eyes as his lips parted and hovered over yours. But it wasn't just lust.

'I love you', he whispered as he held eye contact.

You felt your heart explode inside your chest as he pressed his forehead against yours.

'Let me show you', he breathed out.
