She was fire-sharp-tongued, defiant, and dangerous. He was steel-cold, unbending, and impossible to impress. When she's assigned to Captain Levi Ackerman's elite squad, it's clear from the start they were never meant to work together. They clash in training, in strategy, and most of all, in silence. But on the battlefield, something shifts. In the quiet spaces between orders and outposts, tension builds-tight, coiled, electric. Each mission draws them closer, neither willing to break, neither able to look away. In the world beyond the Walls, survival demands obedience. Discipline. Control. But when loyalty is tested and instincts betray, lines blur. And in the shadows of war, fire and steel can become something far more dangerous: heat. This is a story of sharp glances and sharper words. Of two soldiers caught in the gravity of something they won't name. A slow burn of control, collision, and the cost of wanting more in a world that punishes weakness. Enemies, allies, something in between-whatever they are, it's only a matter of time before one of them burns. *smut to come 🤌*

Genre: Strangers to Friends to Lovers | Action | Angst | Slow Burn | Romance Setting: Pre-Female Titan Arc, within the Survey Corps Tone: Gritty, emotionally tense, laced with dry humor and quiet intimacy You're a newly promoted soldier, transferred from the Garrison after an impressive track record during the recent Titan encounters. Though most soldiers barely survive outside the walls, you not only survived - you led your squad through an impossible retreat and brought back vital intel. Erwin sees potential. Levi sees a liability. To him, you're unpredictable, insubordinate, and far too emotional - everything that gets people killed. He doesn't want another name to remember. Another grave to dig. So from the start, it's friction. You question his orders. He challenges your discipline. The tension is palpable - in every sparring match, every mission, every moment too close for comfort. But as you prove your strength and cunning on the battlefield, something shifts. Levi starts to see the method in your madness, the quiet grief in your rage. And you begin to understand the weight behind his silence - and the cost of the title "humanity's strongest." Your banter softens. Your teamwork sharpens. The line between loathing and loyalty blurs. Until one night - after a mission gone wrong, blood in the dirt and fire in the sky - he lets you in. Just for a moment. But in this world, love isn't a luxury. It's a liability. And as Levi's feelings deepen, so does the danger. Because nothing - and no one - survives in his life for long.

Guarded by a shell of steel, surrounded by a swarm of fawners, and armed with a vocabulary restricted to passive-aggressions, baseball player Levi Ackerman is not the kind of guy you want to tangle with during your junior year at Mitras State University. Fate is a fickle thing, and weaving yourself into a close-knit group of friends who stitch the void in your heart is the more favourable situation. But when push comes to shove, when back and forths become foreplay and stares start stripping skin, you find yourself drowning in blue pools and grey clouds. You end up discovering endless galaxies within his empty eyes that you only want to float in. When the thin line between love and hate loses itself, will you end up losing yourself? 𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊 [ levi x fem! reader, fake-dating, college au, enemies-to-lovers ish slowburn ]

Hope Rose joined the Scouts to save lives, not take them. As a medic with a quiet fire, she's spent her career away from the battle-stitching wounds, calming panic, and hiding the scars no one else sees. Levi Ackerman doesn't notice people. He notices efficiency, weakness, and tactical errors. But when he is assigned to train Hope to join them in the front lines, he finds himself noticing her. Too often. Too deeply. And that, more than any Titan, terrifies him. Through forest missions, political conspiracies, near-death encounters, and the quiet stillness of after, a bond forms. First in shared silences. Then in stray glances. Then in something neither of them can name. In a time where peace is fleeting and grief is constant, Levi and Hope must decide: is surviving enough? Or is it time to start choosing to live?

Years of hard work landed you the crème de la crème lifestyle a doctor within the Walls could ever dream of - a career in Wall Sina. Unfortunately, the snotty ways of the elites left you feeling unfulfilled, prompting you to seek something more meaningful. You signed up as Military Doctor in the Survey Corps, fighting Titans and healing soldiers. Along the way you made new friends, enemies, and caught the the eye of a particular aloof man in the Corps - Captain Levi himself. Assigned as his personal 'sleep therapist' by Erwin, the Captain seems to be quite taken by your intelligence and witty charms. An unexpected relationship and tension grows, and you found yourself falling for him. Over time, you question your identity and wonder, are you a doctor first and a soldier second? Or are you willing to go against your values as a doctor and take lives instead of saving them? How far are you willing to bend your moral compass to do things for the 'greater good'? - Contains mature content, 18+ smut. Canon-compliant but loosely follow plot.

You know how this story goes. But now, you're inside it. Placed within the world of Attack on Titan, you are no longer a spectator to history-you are a soldier in it. And when fate assigns you to Captain Levi's squad, your life intertwines with his in ways neither of you anticipate. He is cold, unreadable and untouchable. Until you. Somewhere between training drills, life beyond the Walls, and the weight of war pressing in from every side, something changes. The space between captain and subordinate narrows. Trust forms. The air grows charged with things left unsaid. When you stepped into his world, one thing became clear: Even the strongest soldier isn't immune to connection. And some bonds are powerful enough to alter fate itself.

𝑂𝑛𝑒 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟, 𝑤𝑒'𝑙𝑙 𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑒𝑎𝑐ℎ 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑣𝑒. In a world on the brink of destruction, Reinae Agnar is a ruthless leader with a past full of betrayal and secrets. Thrust into the Scouting Corps, she's caught in a dangerous game of power and survival. But nothing is more perilous than her tangled relationship with a particular cold, stoic soldier who pushes her to the edge of hate and desire. Navigating resentment, friendship, and an annoyingly burning attraction, Reinae is faced with challenges she has never had to face before. This is a Levi x OC fanfiction. It's a slow burn, but I think that's the only thing that makes sense, considering both Levi and OC's characters. I plan on making four stories, with this one taking place after the fall of Wall Maria and before the struggle for Trost. I put a lot of time into writing this, and I really enjoyed creating new characters and introducing them to the fascinating world of Attack on Titan. I hope you will enjoy it, too:) Check the preface for trigger warnings and statements.
