slowburn || levi ackerman

wall rose stands tall and holds its breath once again as the scouts prepare to push beyond the walls. into territory that doesn't feel abandoned so much as it feels watched.

levi ackerman is humanity's strongest soldier.

but the most dangerous thing he's currently dealing with isn't titans.

it's y/n.

she's brand new. unreadable. and too sharp for someone with no background. no history. no affiliations with the scouts.

he can't read her. can't place her. can't figure out why a recruit who showed up with no records and a blank file moves better than half of the soldiers in his squad.

that should make her a liability.

it makes her something worse.

a mystery.

trust turns fragile. tempers run hot. and in the tight space between drills and missions and empty offices where rank is supposed to mean something, the distance between them starts to close fast.

boundaries should stay intact. hands should stay where the institution can see them.

they don't. they clash.

and every wall he presses her against makes it harder to tell what's more dangerous.

what's building between them inside. or what's hunting them outside.

jump in.

it gets messy. it gets loud.

and the two of them are bound to collide.

but remember, no one is safe.

no one gets to hide.

and absolutely no one walks away clean when all of this is said and done.
