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

Eyes

YOUR POV

As you slowly gained consciousness, you felt your felt an immense pressure inside your skull. Your hands were somehow pressed together and you could gradually feel a shooting pain in some of your limbs.

Everything felt so blurry right the. You could hardly open your heavy eyelids as you tried to stretch your body, but to no avail. That's when you realized your wrists and ankles were tied down tightly.

Suddenly, it all came back to you, as if what you had experienced the previous night had all been some sort of bizarre fever dream. It almost didn't feel real.

You could recall, as your eyes began to open and your senses slowly came back to you, everything that had happened just a few hours ago. How they had broken in. How they had taken you.

There were so many of them. So many men. You couldn't recognize a single face except Levi's. God, Levi. You could remember his expression as he realized what was happening. You could hear his screams inside your head as you remembered him fighting them all.

'She's awake!', you heard as your vision came back to you, but you couldn't recognize the voice.

Fear suddenly took over your entire body as you observed your surroundings. It looked like they had placed you in some sort of filthy, old cell.

You looked down at your body as saw bruises decorating your skin in your arms and legs. And right then, you could feel tears building up in your eyes. Still, you denied yourself of any emotion. You knew just how strong you would have to be in that moment.

'Relax... we are not going to hurt you', another voice rang in your ears and forced you to look up.

Two men were sitting behind the cell bars. One of them was young and tall. Oddly enough, he sounded sincere.

'Well it's too late for that, huh?' you let out lowly, your tied hands gesturing to your wounds. The taller man eyed you down. He almost looked amused.

'Who the fuck are you?', you sighed.

'Easy, titan... We ought to get to know each other, yes. But all in good time', the taller man poke as the other quietly observed your movements.

As the speaker stood up, you consciously forced yourself not to flinch. Whatever they would decide to do to you, they knew the cost very well. They knew you could shift, and still, they took you. It all began to make sense to you as the man kept moving toward you.

'Warriors', you whispered.

Your pupils focused on the figure approaching your cell, and in that instant, a thousand thoughs began to race through your mind.

'What did you do to him?!', your voice broke.

The only thing you could possibly think of was Levi.

'The Levi Ackerman? Oh, he's fine... we didn't know humanity's strongest was walking again! It's funny... did you really think changing his appearance would help?', the man smirked and you suddenly felt nauseous.

They must had been following you for a long time. Tracing your footsteps. Fuck, all of your friends were in danger. All because of you.

'Leave him out of this. Whatever you want of me, if you hurt him...', your voice was filled with rage.

'No threats, pretty lady. Your hands are quite literally tied. But do not worry... we wont hurt your friends just yet. We need you alive after all', the man began walking back and forth slowly and you could feel your head spin.

'What do you want?', you let out, defeated.

The Warriie looked at you in the eye and you felt coldness take over your body, as if a freezing winter breeze had invaded the whole cell. The chilling sensation was eerie as he stared at you, his lips tightly pressed.

'That titan of yours...you see, you seem to be the only person capable of doing that shit, lady. And it's quite inconvenient, since you have decided to surround yourself with more Eldian scum. I mean... we are grateful we got our hands on you before Jeagerists could. That would've been even more inconvenient', he laughed to himself, making the other idiot who was sitting behind him snort. He looked at you, then continued.

'I am shocked, though. Did you really think there were no Warriors in Paradis, lady? There is more of us than you would think. And we have been waiting for a miracle like you, for a long time. The war that was fought years ago is not over. You see... after that day, where Eren Jaeger decided to wipe humanity out, and failed to do so, us who are true to Marley have remained together. Strong. Fearsome. And we do not forget. We do not forgive', he stopped himself as he turned to face you, his eyebrows furrowed.

'My people have done nothing wrong', you let out as your voice shook. You couldn't even held eye contact with the man. You felt so weak. But his presence unsettled you.

'That's were you are wrong, lady. Your people have killed my people. Your people have abused Marley. And now, after three long years, we have become stronger than ever. Other nations have our back. And you, my dear, you are our hope. It is my duty to try and make you see that,  from this day to my last. We are not here to hurt you. You, Eldian demon, are here to pay your debt', his voice was loud and stern as he continued to look into your eyes.

You knew then, you were screwed.
