My Inner Demons: The Rise of a Devil

Chapter 58: The Yeager Squad

The following morning, I woke up earlier than usual. That was because I had an important meeting with Commander Erwin and Premier Zachary today. I'd finally decided on the first official members of my squad. I'd put it off long enough and wanted them under my supervision before we left for Shiganshina in a month. The thought of finally returning home after five years was a little nerve-wracking, to say the least, but I was ready. I would finally know what my dad kept in his cellar all this time. I prayed it was worth all the sacrifices thus far.

I pushed these thoughts from my mind for the time being as I entered the attached bathroom. Placing the clean clothes off to the side, I stripped down to bare skin and stepped into the shower. Turning the knob, I sighed in relief as the water touched my body. It felt like I hadn't showered in forever even though it was only yesterday that I'd been in here. I quickly but thoroughly cleaned myself before washing all the soap off with water. Once I was clean, I stepped out and dried off with a towel. My hair hung limply, inches away from touching my shoulders. I'd always made it a point to keep my hair presentable but ever since my capture and imprisonment by Historia's father, I noticed I wasn't taking care of it as much. It had grown in the weeks since I was rescued but still looked somewhat nice. I also had some stubble growing on my face. I rather liked the way it looked with my growing hair. I'd have to make a trip down to the barber to get it taken care of at some point but I could deal with that later. Once I was cleaned up I put the set of clothes on and walked out of the bathroom.

By now Mikasa had woken up. She'd been staying in my room a lot lately despite the captain's strict rules, but seeing as how we were equal rank now, he stopped caring.

"Just don't do anything stupid with her Yeager. You may be a captain now, but you still have an example to set."

The captain's words echoed through my mind as I walked over to my girlfriend, who was currently rubbing the sleep from her eyes. As she stretched, the sheets covering her body slipped a little bit, revealing her loose tank top, and most of her cleavage.

Mikasa(tired): Morning.

Y/n: Hey sleepyhead.

I kissed her forehead as I approached the wardrobe beside my bed. Opening it revealed my field jacket and my formal one. I grabbed the formal one off the hanger and slipped it over my broad shoulders. As I was buttoning the coat up, I felt her hug me from behind. Her breasts pressed into my back as she laid her head on my shoulder.

Mikasa: Do you have to leave right now? I don't think a few more minutes would hurt.

Y/n: As much as I would love to get back in bed with you, I cant. This meeting is very important. If I don't do it now I'll have to wait a long time before I get another chance. Tell you what, once I get back, we'll go out together. How does a quiet dinner sound? Just the two of us with no distractions.

Mikasa: That sounds lovely. I'll make sure those trampy capital ladies know you're mine.

Y/n(chuckles): I seriously doubt they're looking at me in that way. I just played a big part in saving their lives...multiple times.

Mikasa: Call it a woman's intuition. I know when another girl is looking at you the way I do.

Y/n: You worry too much.

Mikasa: I do not, I'm just making sure they don't steal you from me. Have you seen the way some of them dress? I'm surprised their boobs don't burst out of those tight dresses they wear. It's absurd.

Y/n: Oh please, you'd wear one of those if I asked you to.

Mikasa: W-Wha...That's not the point I'm trying to make!
