A Reason to Fight (Levi x Reader x Erwin)

Chapter 7: Closure

Your POV

I made my way down the familiar marble hallway, nodding at my coworkers I passed along the way. I finally reached Laurie's office, the huge dark wood door was such an intimidating site. I knock on the door and await his permission to enter.

"Come in," I hear from within the office. I enter the room to see Laurie with blood stains on his expensive shirt. I look down to see him standing over a pretty girl with short brown hair and blue eyes. It's Celeste.

"Ah my Peitho," said Laurie, beaming at me with his amber coloured eyes and deceivingly handsome face. "I hope you have better information for me than your friend here." He says as he stares disgustingly at Celeste, "Get up, Clio. And wash yourself off, you won't be needing stitches for those."

Celeste whimpered in response and slowly stood up. I wanted to help her so badly, but I knew it would be worse for both of us if I did.

"Sit, my Peitho, how has my goddess of persuasion done today?" Laurie purrs at me, wiping his blood covered hands on a handkerchief.

I smile seductively and give him my report, "You were correct, sir. Rodger has been embezzling money from the crown."

Laurie smiles widely and lights a cigar, "Excellent, I'll get to work right away."

Laurie runs his fingers through his shoulder length silvery blonde hair, "I knew I gave you the right name when I bought you."

He stands up from his chair and makes his way over to me. He bends down so he is level with my eyes, fingering a few strands of my (h/c) hair. He looks into my (e/c) eyes with his amber ones, "I can hardly wait to have you all to myself."

I'm very good at hiding my true feelings, it's best not to show any kind of weakness. I smile sweetly at at him and kiss his cheek, even though I would love nothing more than to slit his throat with the knife I have strapped to my thigh all the time.

I bow to him as I turn to leave, but he stops me. "You've been requested by George for tomorrow," I pause, hand hovering over the door handle, "Make sure he talks, Peitho. You know you're my favourite, but you know what happens if you disappoint me."

I gulp silently before I turn around to face Laurie again, "Of course sir, thank you for the opportunity to be useful to you." He gives me another big smile and I finally turn to leave.

Once I open the door, I am yanked out forcefully. I'm chained to the wall in a dark stone room with only my underwear on. I try not to breathe too heavily, the pain in my ribs is making it very difficult. He's definitely broken a couple this time.

I see a door in front of me open, and I see Laurie come in. I glare at him hatefully, not even trying to hide my distain and contempt for the man.

"Oh my sweet Peitho, it pains me to see you look at me like that." He kicks me hard on the side of my face, sending blood spitting out of my mouth. I gasp and cough as I try to catch my breath.

"You left me for that man, (y/n), and now you know there are grave consequences for disobeying me." I knew I was done for when he used my real name rather than the one he gave me.

He unlocks the shackles that hold me to the wall, and lays me down on my stomach. I have no energy to try and resist him as he sits over me.

"Is it true that even after being married to him for a year, you still remain a virgin? This is good, that means you're still fit to be mine if you cooperate." He grabs my hair and forces my head up, "But that doesn't mean you're not going to be punished." He slams my face into the cold stone floor causing me to groan in pain.
