"Why are you afraid of Nile taking him from you?" he asked. "Even though Nile might his father, he'll put him in the slave trade, but because he's the father he can keep him as a slave his entire life without the opportunity to be free like me. My son will forever serve Nile and his family until Nile sells him or my son dies" I answered. "How much does it cost to free a slave?" he asked. "For slaves like me its a thousand pounds per year left, unless you own my contract. For slaves like my son it'd be so much more" I said.

"How many years do you have left?" he asked as he continued stitching. "At least 2-4 years left" I answered. He stayed silent and when he was finished he helped me wrap my torso to keep the stitches clean. When that was done he asked "How do I find the location?" "I meet with an old friend in the woods. Everyday we meet at the same place at the same time. He'll only take you to the children if you have possession of the necklace. If he doesn't immediately see it he'll sound the alarm and you'll be attacked by some of the older children. Trained them myself so they'll definitely try to kill you. Once you arrive ask for Erwin L/N. The quickest there is to head west for 3 hours and when the 4th hour comes around head south for 2. You'll have to leave early if you're to make it around noon, if you're late you'll have to wait until noon the next day" I answered.

"And what does the child look like?" he asked. I froze and said "He has black hair like yours, and icy blue eyes that in certain light's look almost silver like my father's. He's roughly the same height as my hip. The older children teach the others, so even though he's so young I guarantee that they've started his training. I can also say that they'll want to know how I am. Just tell them that I'm safe and that I'll come see them when I can." "How many children have you rescued?" he asked. "Over the past 11 years I've rescued 132 children. Depending on the age they were when I rescued them they range between 5-14 years old" I replied.

"And where do they stay?" he asked. "My friend and I thought it best that I didn't know that" I said. "How are they trained if you're not around?" he asked. "I have 12 older children around 14 that teach 11 children each" I answered. "So basically you and your friend are running a school" he said. "Yes" I said. "And how is it kept running?" he asked. "Over the years I've collected several backers that support what I do. Neither of us keeps in direct contact with them so no one knows where the school is. And all the children are taught in a separate building so that even the teachers hired don't know where the children stay" I replied.

Then he asked "Any other's that need treatment?" I took a deep breath and showed him my wrists, my ankles and then tilted my head. When he saw the swollen broken skin from the manacles he cursed. He worked his way up by applying salve to the cuts on my ankles then on my wrists, and wrapped them in gauze and then moved to my neck. His cheek brushed up against my lips as he gently spread the salve around my neck, he moved then came back to wrap gauze around the wounds and my breath caught in my throat when his fingers gently slid up and into my hair.

Gently he worked his hands into my hair to massage my skull, and when I moaned his eyes turned into liquid mercury as he moved his face closer towards mine. Our lips touched and all I could think about was the way they felt against mine, and just how warm they were when the person who owned them was always so cold. When we pulled away he set me aside and I self consciously wrapped the towel around me that seemed to have fallen to the floor. I closed my eyes waiting for the chilly shield of his to return, when I was suddenly picked up. My eyes popped open as Levi carried me out the shower's in the bridal style. I gave him a wide eyed look and he scowled down at me "Did you really think I was just going to leave you like that Brat?" he said softly.

I nodded and he pulled me closer and kissed me. When the kiss slowly started to become more than just a kiss, I wrapped my arms around his neck, my hands sliding into his hair as our kiss spiraled out of control and became even more intense the one we shared before. We kissed as he carried me to my room and when he pulled away he scowled down at me and said "Tch I already did that once, I won't make that mistake again." We entered my room, and that night I fell asleep in his arms.

When I woke Levi had already left, but he had left behind a uniform for me to wear with a single lilac flower resting on top. I brought the flower up to my nose and smiled before dressing. Placing the flower in between the pages of a book I left my room only to come face to face with Hange and the others demanding to know what happened.
