The Ereri Project (#2)

Wolves (Vampire)

The wolves are coming.

That was the news they received from their friends in a northern clan. Hanji was doing her best to stockpile whatever blood sources she could find while Eren was suddenly very protective about letting Levi leave the mansion.

The wolves appeared human to actual humans but only appeared to be. If a human tried to touch one of them, the illusion would be ruined. They lived in nomadic packs, and because of their various histories with humans, were very protective of them. Thus, they did not like vampires and the fights that broke out often led to fatalities on both sides.

It's dangerous for more vulnerable vampires, like Levi, to be out in the open if the wolves really are on their way. Still, two weeks after the warning came, the pregnant omega was hungry and didn't want to dip into their resources if it would still be a few days before the wolves came.

"I'm not going to be able to talk you out of it am I?" Eren asks, pouting.

"Nope, I'd rather both of us be well fed if we're going to have to hide for a while," Levi replies. "It'll be quick, I promise."

"Bring your cell phone," Eren says. "I'm calling Erwin so he can tell us to come home if it's unsafe."

Levi pulls his phone out of his pocket to show it to Eren before returning it. Eren wraps an arm around Levi's waist as he makes the call.

Absently, he brushes his hand over the hardening bump in Levi's belly. Levi smiles, leaning into Eren. Eren slides his phone into his own pocket. "He said he and the others are all around the city so one of them will call of if they see anything."

"Great, let's go."

Levi puts on his shoes and his jacket and they leave.

By the time Levi's eaten his fill, no one has called so he and Eren walk home without much urgency. Levi jogs ahead a little to look at the display of baby clothes in a store front. He smiles back at Eren and starts to say something but...

There's a noisy snarl.

Levi's on the ground.

Eren can only see red.
