Quick WARNING this chapter is centred around rape. Just a heads up.)
It had been a long while since Armin was granted full access to Eren. Levi had seen an improvement in both the boy, they just seemed so happy now.
Levi was again perched on the edge of Erwins desk telling him about how the cadets had been doing. It was early evening when the door burst open. A merchant Erwin had been dealing with waltzed in, followed by two guards. "Smith! I was just coming down to-" the man bellowed but stopped when he saw Levi. Erwin had tried to cover Levi's scent but failed. "An Omega? Wow, it's been a while since I last saw one. Come by my place sometime, it could be fun." He walked over to Levi running the back of his fingers down Levi's cheek. Levi's eye twitched before he moved away. He walked over to Erwin who was now standing, walked behind him and rubbed his shoulder along the commander's back as he went by. "What do you need?" Erwin tried to stay calm and not destroy the other man for hitting on his Omega.
"Oh, I was just coming down to give you the file with my offer in." The merchant said as one of his guards handed Erwin an envelope. "That's my final offer Smith." He said leaving and slamming the door shut.
Erwin signed before his collar was then pulled down and his lips were crashed into Levi's. They kissed for a moment or two before Levi pulled away. "That vile bastard. He touched me and then had the cheek to put his fucking scent on me. Gah, I hate Alphas." Levi ranted pushing his face into Erwins chest. "Erwin fucking mark me again." Levi pulled at Erwins shirt. The taller man then lent down and kissed Levi again. He moved to Levi's jaw gently biting. He untied Levi's cravat and bit the gland on his neck. Sucking it to leave a mark. Erwin moved to unbutton Levi's shirt but a light knock on the door stopped him. "Shit." Levi pulled away and turned around as Erwin sat down. He beckoned them in. Facing the window behind Erwins desk Levi only heard who it was but knew straight away. "Commander, sir. I was wondering if I could speak to Captain Levi." A timid Armin asked. Levi turned around tying his cravat again. "What do you need kid?" Levi asked a little sour.
"I need to speak to you in private if you're not busy, sir." The blonde asked turning slightly red. Levi looked at Erwin "Fine."
We'll finish this later Erwin.
I'll be waiting baby.
Armin walked beside Levi to his office. Levi opened the door and perched on his desk instead of sitting behind it. "So what's this about?" Levi asked.
"W-Well I um.. I have a couple personal questions to ask." Armin sat in a chair in front of Levi. Levi nodded letting the boy continue.
"First is how often will I go into heat? And secondly how do I tell I'm in heat?" Armin asked shyly.
"You go into heat every month for about a week. And you can tell because you're really horny all the time. And er... you're body gets ready for sex, I guess. If you can't tell you're in heat Eren will be able to." Levi replied a little awkwardly, he wasn't the kids father he shouldn't have to teach about this stuff.
"How will Eren know?" Armin asked curiously. Levi sighed, "Because your scent changes. It tells all alphas and betas you're ready to mate. That's why I told you to be careful. They get feisty around Omegas."
"Oh okay. I will be careful. Thank you sir."
"Eren should protect you though. It'll be his first instinct to. That's one of the reasons we decided to let you two stay together."
"Thank you again for letting us sir. It was extremely nice of you." Armin smiled politely.
"No problem. Anyway is that all you wanted to ask?"
"Yes sir. Thank you for your time." Armin stood up, saluted and exited the room.
Levi just sat for a while, thinking. He couldn't help but be worried, the boy smelt like he was in heat and there is a lot of nasty people about. He had been there for quite sometime when he decided to leave. He was locking his door when he heard a loud thump and a small scream to follow. He walked towards where he thought it came from. He came to a door to a storage cupboard. Levi listened carefully. There were people talking and... muffled crying. Levi edged the door open slightly looking in. Two men were holding on another's arms. Levi couldn't see see who it was because a fourth person was between their legs, fucking them. Levi's eyes widened when the person in the middle cried Erens name. With the stealth of a cat Levi walked behind the man just as he was finishing inside the boy and put a knife to his throat. Levi pressed the knife he had had since his thug days against the man's throat just enough to break the skin. "I suggest you let him go right now or I will not hesitate to cut you open." Levi whispered darkly. He waited until the man had pulled out before landing a skilful punch to the side of his head, knocking him to the ground and out cold. His two accomplices put the cadet down. Levi pointed to the unconscious one, "Sit." They both scrambled to sat beside their friend. A shift kick to the face had them knocked out too.
Levi turned to a quivering Armin. He had his legs pulled tightly to his chest and was crying into them. He was stripped of his pants and his shirt had been ripped. Levi noticed blood between his legs. The Corporal crouched beside him and tucked a piece of the boys blonde hair behind his ear. The touch made Armin raise his head quickly. He tried to speak but couldn't. "I'm gonna get you dressed and take you to my quarters to clean you up okay?" Levi was trying to be as soft as he could. Armin nodded still crying. Levi found Armins pants and helped him get dressed. But as they stood pain shot through Armins body causing him to almost collapse. Levi took one of Armins arm and put it over his shoulder, supporting him as they walked. Levi told a near by guard to watch that door.
They managed to get to Levi's quarters. Inside Armin was set down on the captain's bed. Levi first grabbed some paper and wrote down a note, he went back outside and found a cadet. He told them to take the message to the commander. Back inside he got some water and a cloth. Levi offered Armin a glass of water and used the rest to clean him up. He had cuts and bruises on his face and chest. No words were exchanged, Armin was too shaken up to speak. A knock on the door broke the silence. The door opened and Erwin stuck his head in before opening it fully. Eren looked at the commander confused but walked in anyway. But his eyes soon widened when he saw Armin. He ran to his side, grabbing his hand. Armin burst into tears again wrapping his arms around Eren. "Armin, what happened to-" Eren stopped. They were clearly communicating telepathically because Eren face twisted into one of pure anger. "That bastard." Eren growl. "I'll kill him. I'll ripe him limb from limb."
"Jeager!" The captain intrupted his mindless rant. "We'll deal with it. You getting angry can't be good for Armin." Erens face softened, he looked down at the blonde who was still crying into his chest. "I'm sorry Armin." Eren held his Omega tighter.
"You two stay here. We'll be back in a minute." Levi got up and walked towards the door, "Clean him up Eren."
Levi led Erwin to the room those monsters were in. Opening the door to find they were gone and the guard that was keeping watch was beaten and unconscious in a corner. "FUCK!" Levi shouted turning around to punch a wall. Erwin caught his hand before it could come into contact with any hard surface. Levi was pulled into a tight hug to defuse some of the anger. "Damn it those cowards couldn't even face what they had done. Fucking monsters." Levi shouted holding Erwins sleeve tightly. He calmed slowly, falling into Erwins embrace. "How could they? He's a fucking kid. How could they?" Levi was helpless and frustrated because of it. "I can't even remember what they looked like."
"I'm sure if you see them again you will." Erwin tried to comfort him.
"They better hope I never see them again." Levi growled.
"Come on that's go back." Erwin let go of the smaller man. Levi straightened his uniform and walked back into the hallway
They knocked once they got back to his quarters and then entered slowly. Armin was wearing Erens shirt and his hair was wet. The blonde was fast asleep in Erens arms. "We want you two to stay here tonight." Levi stated. "So make yourself comfortable."
"But what about you sir? And don't I need to be locked in the basement." Eren seemed hesitant to take the offer.
"It's one night Jaeger deal with it. We'll sleep over here." Levi said as he sat on one of the sofas by a fireplace. Erwin followed and sat beside Levi allowing the Corporal to lean on his shoulder. Eren stared at his two superiors before moving Armin up the bed and under the covers, shortly followed by himself. Erwin placed a small kiss on Levi's head when he heard a small "Thank you sir." Come from Eren.
