The Commander's Collateral (Erwin Smith x Fem.Reader)

"I do not need a wife, Lady [Y/N]. I need a treasury. And you need a name that makes even your father tremble. It is a simple exchange of assets."

[Y/N] was never meant to be a soldier. Born into the suffocating luxury of the Mitras nobility, her life was a series of polished floors and empty smiles-until her father sold her to the highest bidder.

But her "buyer" wasn't a fellow noble; it was the Commander of the Survey Corps, Erwin Smith.
Erwin is a man who plays a global game of chess, and he has just moved [Y/N] into his most dangerous position yet. To the public, it's a union of military might and aristocratic wealth. To the Survey Corps, she is a stranger in their midst. But behind the closed doors of their shared quarters, the contract begins to blur.

Bound by a marriage certificate but separated by a world of secrets, [Y/N] must navigate the treacherous waters of the Scout Regiment. As the walls crumble and the truth of the Titans looms closer, she realizes that being "protected" by Erwin Smith might be the most dangerous thing of all.
Because Erwin is a man who will sacrifice anything for the future of humanity... but what happens when he starts to view his wife as more than just collateral?
