Breaking down walls (Ereri / Riren) fanfic 💖

Chapter "29"

It was raining the next morning. Eren sighed as he looked out the window. He wasn't fond of the idea of going outside in such dismal weather for hours. They were going to Sina that day and Levi had told Eren to wait for him in the lounge.

Eren sat by the window, a rucksack at his feet, and waited for his mate while staring at the droplets. He didn't know why, but there was something about the rain that he thought was mesmerising. The rain wasn't heavy, but it was enough to soak them completely if they stood in it for five minutes.

The door to the room opened and Eren turned around, away from the window. It was Gunther and Eld. They bowed.

"Sir Eren, King Rivaille has ordered us to escort you to him," Gunther said, winking. Eren smiled.

"It's good to see you two again. I was wondering if you had died on the mission that Levi had mentioned you were on," he replied. Both of the guards relaxed.

"Nah, it wasn't too dangerous. He wanted to make sure that everything was okay in Maria and that no one else was missing,' Eld said. Eren nodded and walked up to them.

"Okay, take me to Levi," Eren said. They both nodded, before Eld handed Eren's cloak to him.

"It's raining outside, as you have guessed. If we send you to Rivaille without this, he would probably skin us," Eld said. Eren smiled and accepted the cloak, throwing it over himself and putting the hood up, The Wings of Freedom on his back. Eren knew that he would definitely have to wear them for his coronation.

They led him out of the room and to the front door, outside. He could see twenty horses in front of him, and their owners standing beside them. Lucas and Roxas stood second from the front, while Levi stood by the door waiting for Eren.

Levi turned to his mate and nodded.

"Let's go," he said. Eren nodded and followed Levi into the rain.

As Eren made his way to the front of the troops, he saw Mikasa. She smiled softly and waved. Eren was glad she was coming. Erwin and Mike, as well as Gunther, Eld and Auruo, were coming too. Erwin and Mike stood at the front.

Levi stopped in front of Lucas and turned to Eren.

"Stay close in Sina, Eren. We may have an alliance with them, but I don't trust them. Mikasa is tagging along as well and she understands that her top priority is you. I made sure of that," Levi said. Eren nodded and smiled

"Thank you," he replied. Levi smiled slightly, before kissing Eren quickly and getting on his horse. Eren got on Roxas, and Erwin and Mike started to walk on.

Everyone started to move and then went into a gallop. They exited the main courtyard and passed the gates. They all stayed in a line and Eren could understand why there were so many guards coming. Mikasa rode behind him.

It was going to be a long journey to Sina.

. . .

They had left early in the morning, and by the time they had passed the Sina border the rain had stopped and it was the early afternoon. They had stopped for a ten minute break halfway, but got back to moving quickly.

Levi hadn't said much during the journey, which didn't bother Eren at all. He knew that he was thinking of what was going to happen. Having all of the Kingdoms together was probably going to lead to a disagreement. Hopefully it would have nothing to do with Eren. Overall, no one really spoke. Mikasa would make a comment here and there, but there was never a full conversation. They would probably be fine as soon as they reached the Sina palace.

Eren was getting stomach cramps through the journey, which was not a good sign.

"You okay, brat?" Levi asked, turning his eyes to his Omega, but also keeping an eyes on the road. Eren smiled slightly.
