Ashes and Oaths - A Levi Ackerman x Reader Story

Beneath the City, Survival Has a Price.

In the shadowed depths of the Underground City, survival isn't a matter of strength alone--it's knowing who to trust, when to strike, and when to vanish. Y/N, known to her clients as Ryn, is a stealthy assassin for a man named Korst. Killing is the only was she has found to survive in a world that offers no mercy.

When a dangerous encounter puts her in the crosshairs of Kenny Ackerman, Y/N is forced into a deal she can't refuse--one that leads her straight into the path of the Scout Regiment. To prove her worth, she must trade shadow for sunlight, adapting to a life she's never known and a war she's never fought.

But as she faces titans for the first time, Y/N learns that the true threats aren't the ones outside the walls. Secrets have weight, and hers could destroy the fragile trust of her new comrades--especially the sharp eyed Captain Levi, whose past with Kenny could unravel everything.

Torn between loyalty and survival, Y/N must decide: will she keep running from her past, or stand and fight for the freedom she's been dying for since the day she was born?
