Levi
--
- It probably wouldn’t even be planned
- You’d probably just randomly blurt it out in the middle of a conversation
- Allow me to set the setting
- You guys would be in his office
- He’d be sitting at his desk, doing the paperwork Erwin assigned
- You’d be on the small sofa across the room, reading a book
- You’ve been thinking about telling him for the past few months, but you didn’t know how’d he react
- You didn’t want to lose him, so you kept quiet
- It started eating at you recently though
- I mean, he deserves to know
- You kept glancing over at him
- He had his eyes glued on his papers as he rapidly signed and filled out each paper, trying to get it done as soon as possible
- You felt anxious, you didn’t quite know why
- You didn’t even plan on telling him yet, what would you be nervous about?
- Then it hit you
- Word vomit.
- “Levi?”
- He’d look over at you, clearly annoyed
- “What, brat?”
- “I-I’m bisexual,”
- He looked a little shocked at first, but then his face softened
- “Alright,”
- “You’re not mad?”
- “I have no reason to be, you can love who you want to love,” he’d shrug
- He would then resume paying all of his attention towards his paperwork
-----
Jean
---
- You’ve been planning to tell Jean for a while now
- You were extremely nervous he’d break up with you
- You’ve been rehearsing what you wanted to say back for a while now
- You didn’t know if you wanted to stall the conversation or just be straight forward
- You decided to just be straight forward, and if he couldn’t accept your sexuality, he wasn’t good enough for you anyway
- However, that still didn’t stop the nerves
- Yes, you wouldn’t date a homophobic person
- But it’s not like it wouldn’t hurt you if he didn’t accept you
- Anyway
- It was a normal day, but it was after training
- However, Jean, Eren, and you had stable duty after training, so you didn’t have time to relax for the rest of the day
- Eren and Jean got into a fight, and you got involved to try to stop it, but all three of you guys ended up getting stable duty
- You were sweeping up hay in the stables while Jean was brushing a horse
- Eren was outside, cleaning the windows
- You couldn’t wait to tell him
- It wasn’t a word vomit, but you just calmly let it slip
- “Hey, Jean, can I tell you something?”
- “Sure,”
- You took a deep breath and glanced at him
- “I’m bisexual,”
- He paused and looked at you
- You guys locked eye-contact and you felt your heart speed up from the nerves as you waited for his response
- “Oh, alright, that’s all?”
- “Y-Yeah...you’re not mad?”
- He shrugged
- “Why would I be?”
- “O-Oh, alright,”
---
Reiner
---
- Similar to Levi, you never initially planned to tell him
- It kind of came out as a word vomit as well
- I mean, you’ve been thinking about it a lot lately, but you didn’t want to tell him yet
- It was only natural for you to be afraid of his reaction since you loved him so much
- The thought has really been distracting you lately, no one knew about your sexuality yet and you didn’t want to accidentally tell anyone, especially Reiner
- It was really distracting you during training, which Reiner noticed and was kind of worried
- After training, you began walking to the mess hall for dinner, Reiner walked beside you and just looked at you with a puzzled look

Prologue | Previous chapter
Asuna woke up more sore than she was the night before. Still naked, she opened her eyes to see Levi's side of the bed empty. She heard the shower running in the bathroom. She didn't even realize he ended up sleeping next to her last night, she never saw him. Maybe he didn't stay at all, though she did notice that his side of the bed wasn't made yet. Yeah, never mind. He stayed.
It was 10:30am. Damn, I only got 4 hours of sleep. How the hell am I going to get through today? Finally more awake then before to be able to think properly, but extremely sore, she quickly grabs one of her dresses from her suitcase and puts it on before Levi got out out the bathroom. She sits back down on the bed and patiently waits for him, ready to confront him for his actions and pain that he had caused her the night before, early this morning actually.
Levi stepped out of the bathroom which made her jump a bit. He was wearing a towel over his waist and still had water droplets in his hair, he looks at her and gives her his soft smile that makes her stomach flutter. He walks towards her and takes off the towel around his waist and hangs it up, leaving him completely nude and walking right toward her.
She expected the worst again. He's just going to do this all the time now isn't he? Asuna stands up and takes a few steps back, silently asking him to please not do this right now. Before she knew it he was right in front of her, cupping her cheek and passionately kissing her again, slipping some tongue. He lets go after a couple seconds then walks back to grab his pants and belt, putting it on. She breathes a sigh of relief and sits back down, not knowing what the hell to say.
"Good morning," he breaks the silence. "You sleep well?"
"No, not particularly..." she replies, turning her back toward him, hoping that he got the hint as to why she got no sleep and why she is more terrified of him than she ever has been before.
He starts to put on his white dress shirt with his trademark white ascot, looking in the mirror to make sure that his hair isn't messed up and that his ascot is straightened out, he finally finished by putting on his black blazer and tightening his belt. She could see him getting dressed in the corner of her eye but still refused to look at him, but he makes it back to her first before leaving.
"There is a lot of work to do before the wedding, I've already begun preparations for it. If everything goes as planned, it will be within the coming week." He says. Staring down at her while she continued to look down sitting on the side of the bed. She doesn't respond, she just listens and sighs.
"Hey," he raises his voice a just a bit which causes her to instinctively look up at him. He holds her chin up so she can look into his eyes. "Was your innocence really that important to you?"
"I had told you multiple times that I was not ready, and you did it anyway. You fucking tied me up, Levi." She breaks her silence. "What do you expect me to make of that?"
"The deal was when I took you was that you were mine, and you're going to be my wife." He replies. "Shouldn't a husband be able to do whatever he wants with his wife?"
"I'm not your wife yet... even then I don't think its in any rulebook that a husband is supposed to force himself onto his wife." she defies him. She may be terrified of him, but she had been raised to always defend herself against anybody that takes advantage of her, even if that one person happens to be the King.
He looks at her and doesn't say anything, just thinking. She was right, though. He knew that when he had done what he did last night, then she was most likely going to hate him for it, or even be afraid of him, which she was. Though, at the same time he was confident that he would eventually gain her trust and get used to him and his ways. After all, she wasn't going anywhere. He tries to put both his hands on her face to look at her better, but she slaps his hand away.
"You told me... you would never hurt me!" she cries. Trying not to let tears run down her eyes once again, she wanted to be stronger from now on, considering her circumstances and her future as a Queen.
"Even if it's right or not right in your eyes, I don't plan to hurt you, nor stop what I want to do with you." Levi says. Preparing to walk off and leave her questioning her worth once again.
Asuna realizes that her version of 'hurt' and his are completely different. He wasn't going to change, he wasn't going to take her interests at heart. She got it now, he wasn't just humanities strongest nor the King of the Walls, he was a selfish asshole, who takes advantage of his own power and does what he wants to others, even his Queen. A part of her always knew, but now she was certain. He may have been attracted to her, but Levi only took her hand in marriage because he needed to get married, and rejected to marry any other girl that was thrown at him, and that the only reason she is here is for his mere entertainment.
She sighs softly, the discreetly looks to her left towards the doors of their bedroom, then looking back up at him to see that he did not take his eyes off her the entire time.
"You planning to run away?" he asks.
"I am strongly considering it."
He chuckles, giving her one last kiss to her forehead before walking away and heading for the door. She stands up and thinks in her head that she can probably make a run for it, but all the odds seemed to be against her.
"Well, you can't." He turns back then opens the door to leave. "I have work to do, there should be maids coming in soon to help you with your wardrobe. Hange also insisted that she would be the one to show you around the castle, so get ready for that, too."
With that, he turns around and closes the door behind him. Hearing a lock shortly after, she groans in annoyance. Falling onto the bed face first and screaming into the pillow. Is this asshole really going to keep me locked in here the entire time? I sure fucking hope not. Asuna thought about what her rights will be as a Queen once her and Levi get married, maybe once it is official he won't be able to enforce her being locked in this room 24/7. So much for the version of 'never hurting her' or 'never treat her unfairly.' Did he actually say that? I don't remember. Regardless, he's not going to keep me in this fucking room forever.
She walks out to the balcony and feels the sunlight shine on her for the first time since she's been here. She sees the town beneath her, she hears the voices and commotion within it, as well as Wall Sina in the distance. She doesn't think she has ever seen the wall open like this before, and it was beautiful, all of it. Feeling the breeze against her face, she takes a deep breath and admires the life living below her. It is absolutely insane that a world like this is surrounded by giant monsters who want nothing but to eat us, not that I've ever seen one. Is this how it is going to be for life as we know it?
She tries to lay back down, still exhausted from the events of last night as well as her lack of sleep. Now that he's gone, maybe she can just rest a bit before those maids or whoever he referred to were going to come in. She was surprisingly excited to meet new faces, the fear of the idea of her being trapped inside a room all day with nobody to talk to. I wish he would let me actually know him rather than just kiss me and fuck me, take my virginity, with no meaning behind it. All I've wanted was to feel loved by someone, if anything. I felt that kind of love with Harrison, but it was unfortunate that I didn't feel the same.
This, on so many levels, was different.
After about 20 minutes, Asuna closes her eyes and drifted off, the exhaustion that she's felt since this was all happening was finally catching up to her. The nerves calmed down, all the fear she felt was slowly slipping away, finally, she could rest her head in peace.
Like she has been so many times, she was wrong.
She hears a knock on the door, quickly shooting up from her slumber and looks at the door. Hearing it knock one more time, she doesn't know where to go from here. Do I say something? Or are they just going to walk in?
"Uhh, come in?" she hesitantly says.
After that, the door is unlocked and opens before she knew what was happening. A tall girl walks in with a hand maiden dress, she had short black haired and smiled at Asuna with delight and waved. Asuna gets up from the bed and rubs her eyes, attempting to wake up. Seeing the black haired girl waving at her, following her was five other handmaidens who came in with countless amount of dresses, clean sheets and towels and bows before her, as if she was some sort of Goddess. Ladies, please don't. I'm no Goddess, nor am I a Queen.
"Your Grace," the black haired girl bows to her, following the others to do the same. "We have been ordered to help you with your wardrobe and getting set up with everything!"
Your Grace? Are you kidding? Deep down she didn't want anyone to call her that, but she expected that is what was expected of them, since she is now the Queen, or will be at least...in the coming week, she will be officially be titled as 'Your Grace,' despite not feeling that way at all, nor feeling like she could ever deserve that kind of title.
"Hi." Asuna replies. Seeing all of the handmaidens await for her to give her cue for them to come forward and walk in. They didn't want to upset her or make her uncomfortable, after all.
"May we come in?" the black haired girl asks politely. She can sense by their presence and their manners that they are only here to help. With that, she nods.
They all walk in as if they knew the bedroom by heart. Carrying in lots of clothing that was covered so that she couldn't see what they looked like beneath. All walking towards her and putting the clothes in her closet while quietly saying 'Your Grace' as they continued doing what they came to do. She didn't know what to do or what to say, politely nodding her head as they walked all around her. They must have been told not to speak to her unless spoken to, but that's not what she wanted at all. The only person who spoke up and broke the silence was the black haired girl, who came up to her and bowed in front of her.
"Your Grace, we have been sent to get your wardrobe set up, as well as grant you with any request that you may need."
"Um, thank you!" she hesitantly replies. "Actually, I am pretty hungry, I... haven't eaten since..."
"Yes! Of course!" the black haired girl responds. "Shall we get you some breakfast?"
"Yes please." Asuna smiles, grateful to someone for actually granting her some kindness. With that, a couple of the maids nod and walk out to go get their Queen some food, while the others stayed and get up the dresses for her to try on, as well as changing the sheets to the bed, which were far from clean prior to the night before. As the two girls change the sheets to the bed, they saw small blood stains that covered it, they notice it and expected why they were there, but didn't say anything to avoid making their Queen feel awkward.
Looking down in embarrassment, she got reminded again on everything that just happened the night prior, feeling slightly sad and defeated. The black haired girl stands in front of her and looks at her in sadness. She can probably guess why Asuna was feeling down, as well as why there were blood stains on the sheets, she wanted to comfort her and tell her that everything will get easier, and that she is going to be happy here, but at the moment, she wasn't happy at all.
"Are you okay?" the girl asks her. Asuna looks up and seems surprised on her asking her if she was alright. Do I really not look like I'm okay? I mean, I'm not... but I really don't want to look like I'm sad.
That question seemed to get to her more than the maid girl expected it to. She looks up at the girl with an expression in her eyes that would break anyone's heart, her eyes started to water as she attempted to not break down once again. She nods without trying to show her true feels and smiles softly.
"May I?" the black haired girl asks her while extending out her hands to grab hers. Asuna nods and takes her hands in hers, small tears finally slipping out as she couldn't hold it in anymore, especially if someone is nice enough to give her comfort while she goes through her this kind of stress.
"It will get easier," the sweet maid girl reassures her. "I promise."
Asuna wipes her tears and chuckles softly. "I'm sorry, but can I ask who you are?"
"I'm Dana, Your Grace!" she responds joyfully, still holding onto her hands and squeezing them to comfort her. "I'm your new personal handmaiden!"
Personal handmaiden? She thought. Like somebody that's going to bathe and cloth me all the time? I'd really prefer to do that all myself... I mean, if she's going to be considered my personal handmaiden, she should let me know what I want. At least she seems sweet.
"It's nice... to meet you..." she replies shyly. "I'm sorry, I'm just a bit nervous."
"That's okay," she smiles back. "I can understand completely, but if there is anything you need at all, please ask me. There is nothing I want to do more but to make your new life here better."
Asuna smiles and silently thanks her. Maybe this personal handmaiden of hers will become somebody she can actually trust, somebody she can talk to whenever she needs it. Hange seemed like she'd be trustworthy and would be there for her when she needs it. Though, Hange was extremely busy all the time with Scout Regiment missions and her studies on the existence of the titans, Asuna doesn't want to bother her when she's occupied on other things. So with Dana, she was able to rely on her when she is going to need it most.
"Shall we start with your wardrobe?" Dana asks. "We have brought lots of custom designed dresses that I think you'd look amazing in!"
She nods once again, not ever being treated like this before. She turns to see the other handmaidens who just changed the sheets to the bed grabbing out the dresses and items that were in her suitcase. Putting her pictures and other items that she brought to the side, they grabbed the dresses she brought and walked out with them, surprising her on what they are doing with her clothes.
"Wait, what are they doing?" Asuna questions.
"You don't need those worn out clothes anymore, we're here to bring you new things to wear! After all, since you're going to be the Queen, you'll have to look presentable!" Dana answers her.
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Wait, I'm not going to say that out loud, I don't want to be mean when she's just here trying to help. Are my clothes not good enough for this place? I mean, most of them were clothes I wore when I was working on the farm at home... But they didn't have to take them away, what the hell.
"I guess?" Asuna responds.
All the handmaidens helped her undress and took turns helping her into different dresses. A lot of the dresses didn't fit her and started tightening around her waist, her breasts were too big for most of these which surprised the girls on how beautifully shaped she was. They had given her and tried on over 20 dresses that she can wear, the one she liked the best was the long, cream colored silk fabric dress that almost liked like Daenerys Targaryen's wedding dress. It was comfortable and soft, most of the dresses were like this and not too fancy that she would look like a Barbie doll.
"You are absolutely gorgeous." one of the handmaidens said, warming Asuna's heart a bit.
"Levi picked well." Another one said.
"Yeah! I'm jealous!" One more said.
The comments from the other handmaidens made Dana glare at them to shut up as they quickly backed off. The last thing Dana wanted was for Asuna to be more uncomfortable and embarrassed than she already was. After all, four or five girls had came into her room, undressed her and had seen every inch of her body. Dana had decided that from there on she wouldn't bring so many handmaidens to help her dress to make Asuna more comfortable.
After about an hour, they had given her new dresses and some nightgowns that she can wear to sleep, it didn't seem to bad, she actually really liked how they looked on her, she felt like a princess. As they had began to finish, other girls had finally brought in her breakfast which made her mouth water. She was so hungry, the other girls left, leaving her with just Dana to accompany her. It was a beautiful dish of with French toast and eggs, with some pancakes on the side. It looked so appetizing.
"Thank you for everything," Asuna gratefully says as she begins to dig in, feeling like she hasn't eaten in years. Dana smiles and feels like she was successful at making her Queen feel slightly better.
"Of course, Your Grace." she responds happily. "I just hope you eventually start to like it here, every girl in the kingdom, as well as in the castle, all wish they could be in your place right now."
Dana was right. She was luckier than most, especially on where she stands right now. Beautiful dresses, a luxurious room, and delicious food. The one thing that she wishes would be different was the behavior of her fiancee. She couldn't get the thought out of her head, will he ever change? Or is this just going to be how it is for her now?
"Also, you don't need to call me that. Just Asuna is fine." She addresses. Dana nods. Anything for my Queen. Dana thought. After a couple minutes of Asuna enjoying her food as if she hadn't eaten in her entire life. She realizes that this new personal handmaiden of hers seemed to be someone who truly had her best interests at heart, unlike someone she knew.
"I hate him..." Asuna said out of nowhere. Dana glanced at her and widened her eyes in shock, surprised on what she said as well as the idea that she is actually expressing her true feelings to her.
"Levi-sama?"
"Who else? I don't know how I am going to get through any of this." she said, drinking the tea that was given to her with her breakfast.
"It's only been one night, and I almost thought about running out the door and getting as far from here as I can." She finishes.
"Like I said, it will get easier." Dana reassures her again. Knowing what she is referring to. He took her virginity against her will, didn't he? Great way to introduce your future wife to her new home. Damn it, Levi-sama.
"Listen," Dana continues. "I've been here a long time, and I have heard how scary Levi can be, but he's not a bad person. This kingdom is thriving because of him, and now he finally has someone that he can call his wife. You won't be stuck in this room forever, Your Gra- I mean, Asuna-sama. Just give it some time, I promise you everything... will work out."
Dana words really touched her, and surprisingly made her feel a bit more confident than she was before. She was also happy that she called her by her first name rather than Your Grace. I am really starting to like this girl. Asuna thought.
She may have claimed that she hated Levi, but deep down she may feel like that's an overstatement. He may of hurt her and took advantage of her, with no feeling at all that he might deeply care for her, but he had to have chosen her to be his Queen for a reason, right? The words that Dana said gave her some hope that maybe he might eventually change, and this will all get easier soon.
"Yeah..." Asuna responds. "Anyways, um.. I was told that Hange was going to come get me soon to show me around the castle. I'm actually quite curious to see all of it! Is she running late?"
A handmaiden girl comes and grabs her plate from the table as Dana tries to figure out the right way to respond.
"Yeah, she hasn't forgotten!" Dana states. "She's just been a bit preoccupied with some serious business right now."
With that, as the other handmaidens leave the room, Asuna sees that there are about four guards standing watch at her door, with strong alert in their stances, and other soldiers running by the hallway in a rush to get to their destination. That's weird, are there usually this many guards at my door?
Confused, she agrees that Hange might have some business to work on before she could get to her. Though, she couldn't help but see the hesitation and fear that Dana had in her eyes, there must be something she wasn't telling her, because she seemed to tense up a bit as if there was something wrong.
But what was it? What is wrong?

Chapter 2: Say Yes.
Erwin was wrong. He didn't know Levi at all. This was the first time since they've met that he was absolutely shocked at his actions. Same went for Hange, her eyes widened and her mouth hung open in shock. It wasn't just them though, the moment he said what he said, about marrying this small village girl who had no royal blood and not considered highborn, to become his wife, and his queen, everyone gasped, nobody had any words.
"Levi!" Hange shouted. "What are you talking about?"
He just looked at her with his common, stoic glare, not saying a word, silently looking at her to shut up and not question what he chose to say in front of anyone. She wasn't intimidated though, she trusted his judgment.
The one who was most shocked was the girl herself, Asuna, who almost collapsed on her feet while the man next to her kept her up right. The man, Harrison, held Asuna tight as she attempted to process what the King just said. She didn't react, she just stood there staring at the ground in complete shock, then looked back up at the King who had just asked for her hand in marriage. Harrison also looked up at Levi, with furious rage and anger, he was going to take her away, he was going to make her his, and it teared him up inside, knowing there was nothing he could do.
Dan Reiss, was almost as shocked as his daughter. His mouth clinging open as he stood in front of the King with disbelief. He took a second to figure out if this was real or if it was another one of his drunk imaginations getting the best of him, but it wasn't, this was real, this was really happening.
"I'm sorry, come again, Your Grace?" Dan asked, breaking the silence.
"You heard me," Levi answered almost immediately. "Do I have to repeat myself? I hate doing that."
"Answer him!" Asuna screamed at Levi in absolute shock. She looked like she was about to break down, with the unknown man still holding her as if she was dying. He felt a tad bit of jealously when he saw Harrison holding her like that, he didn't understand why, he didn't know her, after all.
Asuna put her hand over her mouth, trying to understand and attempted not to cry. Levi was a king, he was the most powerful man that humanity as we knew it had known. Countless rich and highborn girls were offered to Levi to be his wife, and all of them, he rejected. Angering the higher ups and his advisors, he continued to feast on girls who he didn't feel he needed to ever commit to, even though half of them managed to fall in love with him, despite his sadistic and lustful tendencies. And for the record, most of the girls he fucked were nothing but maids or the rich girls he met during business gatherings.
For years, it was like this, he refused his advisors at every turn when they prompted him to marry, for years, he constantly refused. Until now, asking a small village girl who was far from rich at this point, who thought she was a nobody and continued to live her simple life caring for her childhood home, is now being asked to be King Levi's wife.
"Dan Reiss, like I said, I will forgive your crimes. I will pardon all of the money you owe me that you don't have. I will not hold any grudges against you any longer, if you agree to let me have Asuna as my wife." Levi confronts. "I am not giving you an option to think it over, it is a yes or no question, you're smart enough, to know the outcome of both."
Yep, this is really happening. Dan closes his eyes and looks down. He didn't have much time to think about it. Though, he realized that it was either his life ending or his daughter becoming the Queen of the Walls. If he chose no, then he would be dead and he would not have any idea what would happen to his daughter or her future. He expected the worst, he feels like even if he was killed by Levi at this very second, Levi would take her anyway. He gives it a lot of thought for about a minute which to Asuna felt like hours. He would rather stay alive and pardoned for his crimes rather than not know what would happen to his only daughter. He had decided.
He turns to his daughter, who has gotten free from the grasp of Harrison and walks towards her dad and waits for his answer, small tears beginning to fall from her beautiful green eyes. He looks at her with sadness, as well as relief.
He knew Levi was many things, but a liar, he was not. If he was going to take Asuna's hand in marriage, he would do it, she would be his wife, his Queen, he would protect her and keep her safe from harm to the best of his ability. When she becomes Queen, she will almost have just as the same amount of power as him, as well as the same rights as him. He couldn't help but feel, deep down, this seemed like revenge. He felt as if Levi didn't care about his daughter any less than he cared about any of the other girls he led into his bedroom, this was punishment for his crimes. He couldn't shake the feeling that this was the only reason he was truly asking for Asuna. Though, despite all of this, it was an acceptable offer, but, knowing this, he may never see his daughter again, or barely, at all.
Levi breaks the silence once more and speaks up.
"Say yes."
This was a shock to everyone, he didn't know her. He didn't feel like he cared for her at all or ever will care for her like a husband is supposed to. She would have a new life, a new start, instead of being the caretaker of this large piece of land he owned, she would be the Queen. And after one short answer he would give to Levi, the Queen is what she would become.
"Honey..." Dan breaks his silence. "I'm sorry."
Asuna gasped loudly, tears running down her face as she screamed that perhaps the village next heard her. She felt betrayed, unwanted, but at the same time, she knew deep down that it was either this or her father's execution. She runs up to her father and grabs him by his shoulders. Levi just stands there without moving, continuing to look at this confrontation happening in front of him. He doesn't say a word, and he wasn't going to change his mind. He wanted her all for himself.
She holds him by his shoulders looking right into his eyes in denial not saying a word. She felt the same way he felt, she knew the outcome if he were to deny Levi's offer. He was either the death of her father or it wasn't. After a couple seconds of processing what was going to happen to her. She looks down and cries silently.
"Okay." she says in defeat.
And with that, everything changed. She knew she was about to leave her home and go with King Levi. This felt like a fever dream, she couldn't tell what her future was going to become nor what was in store for her. This world she lived in was huge. The walls she lived within were so unknown that she couldn't tell how large of a world she actually survived in. Wall Sina, Wall Rose, Wall Maria, soon, she would become the Queen of it all, and everyone who lived within them. She began to question everything about what she was going to become. As the Queen, would she just be merely a figurehead who is only known as Levi's wife? Or would she be able to truly make a difference to the kingdom? All of these thoughts continued to roam around her brain as she continued to process her fate. Before she knew it, everyone of Levi's men and guards had realized that they might finally have someone they can call Queen.
"NO!" the man who Levi didn't know the same of yet screamed as loud as he could. Asuna and Dan turned around and prompted him to stop, but he didn't. "You... can't...!" he begins to get emotional.
"Harrison, don't." Dan responds to him. "It is already done."
"You're name is Harrison, huh?" Levi intrudes on the feud. "Harrison, did you just say I can't?"
"Levi, let's not make this a harder situation than it already is." Erwin and Hange stop him.
Harrison, the man in question, finally realizes he actually couldn't do anything at all. All amount of protest would mean nothing. His boss was right, it was already done. Asuna was taken from his grasp at the blink of one permanent offer. He looks down, not looking at anything but the ground below him. Nodding and sighing in defeat. Though, if this man wasn't the King, Harrison would be grabbing and punching him until he was wheezing and coughing up blood on the ground. Even though in reality, Harrison wouldn't stand a chance against Levi.
Harrison absolutely hated what was happening, he never admitted it out loud or told anybody, but he loved her. Growing up together on Dan's estate, and him practicing his last name with Asuna's. He was waiting until they were official to ask her to marry him and run off with together to live their life, but now, all of those dreams were thrown out the window in a matter of a second. Asuna wasn't ever going to be his, she belonged to Levi now, the deed was done, it was over, and he had to cough it up.
Dan turns around and looks back at the King. "Yes, Your Grace, you can have my daughter's hand in marriage." he finally answers officially.
Levi looks up and sighs while smirking a bit, almost as if he was happy at Dan's answer. He tightly hugs his daughter as she cries on his shoulder, and as they turned around, they saw every one of Levi's acquaintances look at each other and nod, them too slowly realizing that this was really happening as well. With that, they all get down on their knees and kneel, laying their arms at their knees as they bow to their new Queen.
Asuna is stunned. All her father had to do was say yes, and now suddenly she is treated like a royal. It took one word, and that word was yes. Yet, she herself had no words. Softly wiping her tears away and accepting her new reality. She actually disliked what they were doing, she was no queen, she was just a simple farm girl who had no true line of royal blood, that she knew of, anyway.
She let go of her father and watched as everyone around her kneeled before her. Dan and Harrison both stepped back behind her with expressionless faces, but secretly, Dan was happy and relieved. Not because he was going to live to see another day, but that his sweet daughter was going to be the most powerful woman within the walls.
There was no point to this, she thought. There was no reason for them to be bowing to her, she didn't do anything, she didn't prove anything to them. Finally coming to her senses, she looked up, stood tall, and glared at her future husband.
Levi walked toward her, not losing eye contact with her pretty eyes that he was captivated by from the moment he saw her. He takes her right hand in his, softly smiling at her as he kisses her palm then puts it down.
"It's truly nice to meet you, Asuna."
She doesn't respond back with a friendly greeting. Instead, she softly speaks. "Why me?" He looks at her and softly responds back, in a way that nobody around them could hear what he was saying to her.
"Not sure, actually. But we can't change the past now, can we?"

X (18+ content)
It was still a bit early for Asuna to be asleep at this point, so Levi didn't try to be quiet as he slowly opened the large door to their bedroom, and closed it softly. He looked around for her for a few seconds before realizing the large balcony door was open. He saw her figure sitting out there, despite the weather being a bit cold, and her only having a light dress on. He felt terrible. If only he was able to realize sooner the pain he had been causing her since she had been here. Maybe he was just trying to avoid all sorts of deep emotions with her, considering he didn't expect from the get go that it would turn out the way it has.
Levi walks towards the balcony slowly, seeing her sitting on one of the balcony chairs, staring straight ahead. She knew he was there, but she refused to turn around. She was completely mentally drained and exhausted, not just from earlier in his office, from everything. It was time for him to say his peace. Levi takes a deep breath and looks at her with a soft expression, despite her not looking back. Finally, he tries to speak.
"I'm sorry." He says quietly, but still not taking his eyes off her.
It takes a few seconds for her to gather the strength to turn around and look at him. Not getting out of the chair, she looks at him watching her from a few feet away. The look in her eyes made his heart skip a beat. She was so beautiful, even when she was sad, even when she looked at him with uncertainty and anger. She doesn't respond. He may have just apologized, but for what? He was going to have to say more if he wanted her to actually understand.
"Really? Are you?" She speaks up. "For what?"
"You know what."
"Maybe, but you need to be more specific than that."
Levi glares at her and signs in annoyance. "What the fuck do you want me to say?" He states without trying to raise his voice at her.
"Oh, I don't know?" She coos sarcastically. "For starters, maybe you're sorry for leaving me in the dark?! Not telling me the truth about the threats against me and keeping secrets? For ignoring me? For locking me in this damn room while you're away doing God knows what?"
"I haven't been locking the door recently-"
She continues, ignoring his stupid comment. "Or maybe that you're sorry for leaving me in the dark?! Not telling me the truth about the threats against me and keeping secrets? Oh! Or maybe that you're sorry for forcing yourself onto me the first night I came here, and continuing to do so after that, without attempting to get to know me or have any thoughts for my feelings at all?! For simply marrying me and having me in your bed for the mere fact that you want to get back at my father!" Her voice raises, almost yelling at this point.
Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry. She thought to herself. God. My stomach hurts.
He stays silent for a few moments, looking down, feeling unworthy to look in her eyes right now. Once again, she has rendered him speechless. He has never in his life had a conversation like this before with a girl. Or more like, a girl he cares about... so much, and he didn't know why, it was driving him insane.
"Well?!" She speaks up again, but he gives no response. He had really hoped that she didn't notice the sweat that was coming down his forehead at his sorry attempt at trying to figure out how to talk to her.
He still says nothing, trying to build up the words to speak. She was right, and he knew it. He just sat there and wondered how on Earth he was doing to fix this.
"Whatever." She says, wiping a lone tear that was falling from her cheek. She attempts to walk off, not wanting to be in the same room as him any longer, but he stops her as she tries to walk past him, grabbing her arm lightly.
"Wait."
She stops and looks up at him, hoping that finally he will say something.
"You're right." Levi says in a monotone voice, stopping again for several seconds. "You... You deserve better."
"I know." She responds, pulling her arm away from his grasp and sitting down on the bed, looking down as he stands in front of her from a few feet away.
"I guess I didn't do a very good job at explaining it earlier." He admits, taking in a deep breath, trying his hardest to gather the words. He walked closer toward her, looking down at her while she sat down on the bed. She was so eager to hear what else he had to say.
"When I was notified about the anonymous kidnapping threats against you, I panicked. All I wanted to do was keep you safe and away from all of this bullshit, I didn't want to stress you out more." He stops... looks down at her with eyes that are filled with genuine honesty. She looks up at him, continuing to listen. Between them both, they can't get over how gorgeous they both look to each other, the moonlight was hitting both of their faces so perfectly.
"After earlier, I realized I can't stand when you're upset with me." He puts a hand on her shoulder, rubbing it softly, causing her to tense up a bit. "I... I will try to be more honest with you from now on..." He pauses again.
"You will try?" She speaks up, trying to keep her cool. Though it seems like that's as best as she's going to get at this moment with him. She sighs and closes her eyes in frustration. "Okay..."
"I know you don't want to be here... and you never asked for this..." Levi continues. "I...I can't explain it... The way I feel about you, I just... I want to hold you. Protect you. Keep you safe from anyone who could hurt you..."
She stays silent, taking in every word he's saying, while trying not to feel flustered inside at his words.
"I... I do want to know you." He says the words she's been wanting to hear since she got here. "I just... I don't know how to. I've never had a relationship like this before, with anyone."
Asuna gets up, looking up at him and moving closer. This is probably the first time since she's met Levi that she feels truly touched at his words. She hopes he isn't just saying all of this just to calm her down, but when looking into his eyes as he speaks, she notices that the emotion in his face is nothing but genuine, a look she hasn't seen him wear before. Maybe he really is being honest, maybe he really does want to change for her, but this doesn't mean that things are entirely fixed on her end.
"You won't know how to until you try." She responds, giving him a soft smile that makes his heart beat faster. He nods lightly, and attempts to take his hand in hers, which she does back.
"Please... don't shut me out anymore." Asuna says, almost pleading quietly. He squeezes her hand tighter, while putting his other hand on her cheek and caresses it, which causes her to melt to his touch. She may still be unsure about him, but she can't deny the fluttering in her stomach when he holds her in his arms. Though he still doesn't say anything back.
"Levi?"
"Yeah?" He responds, completely lost in her eyes.
"Did you hear what I said?"
"Yeah." He sighs, pausing. "I never wanted to shut you out."
"You already have!" She raises her voice, letting go of his hand and attempting to walk away again.
"No..." He grabs her hand again, pulling her back to him and wrapping his arms around her waist, holding her in place with his hands caressing her back. "Please. Don't leave."
"What do you want from me?" She says as he holds her tightly, his lips inches from her's.
"I don't know..." He hesitantly says, hoping she won't try to get away from him again to that response. "I just want... you..."
With that, he puts his forehead to hers and tries to lean in for a kiss after a few seconds, but she pulls back. Moving her face away from him in an attempt to tell him she is still extremely upset. Trying to keep her tears from running again, she closes her eyes and contemplates her intimate future with Levi Ackerman.
"I'm sorry." He says once again, catching her attention as she looks up at him, her eyes watering. He moves his hand up to her cheek once again and wipes the coming tears from her pretty eyes. "Please... Don't leave. Don't hate me. I'm sorry."
"I know..." She says in a crying state. She didn't know what to do at this point. Should she just accept his apology and go from here? Or should she continue arguing with him until she gets a response out of him that fully satisfies her? She decided she was better off going with the first option, she didn't try to break free from his grasp, she just stood there, speechless. He kisses her forehead and all over her face before pulling her into a hug. He held her tightly as he caressed one hand over her soft hair while the other caressed her back. Her hands were flat against his chest, not hugging him back, instead just crying. She wasn't scared of him anymore, this conversation they had caused her to get to know his personality and what kind of person he was a whole lot better. She wasn't crying because she was scared, she was crying because she just wanted him to simply love her like she deserves, hold her because he wanted to. Kiss her without the thought of sex behind his mind. This conversation didn't fix everything, mainly she realized what a complicated and troubled man he was. This wasn't going to solve all of their problems, but it was a start.
He kisses the top of her head, holding her tighter and tighter with each moment that passes by. He has never felt so nervous in front of a girl before, he cursed himself quietly as he tried to understand this brand new feeling. He was too nervous to tell her, but he was going to try to do better. He wanted her to feel loved, to feel special, to feel like she could come to him for anything she needed. With this feeling being so new to him, he wasn't sure how well he was going to do with his attempt at doing better, but he was going to try.
"Do you forgive me?" Levi asks, breaking the silence, responding with a lighter and kinder voice. She looks up at him, seeing that he has a soft smile on his face as he rubs the back of her head. She sighs, eventually hugs him back, burying her face in his chest.
"You're going to have to try harder than that, Levi Ackerman." She responds as she smiles under her nose and continues to hide her face in his chest. He smiles too, chuckling a bit, moving her head up to look at him as he holds her face in his hands. Attempting to lean in for another kiss, hoping she won't pull away again. His lips softly touched hers, her lips were so soft, Levi wishes that he can stay in this moment forever.
After a few moments, he lifts her off her feet. Carrying her as she wrapped her legs around his waist, arms around his neck. He grabs her ass as he makes out with her some more, holding her as tightly as he could, almost as if she would disappear if he let her go. He softly sets her down on their shared bed, crawling on top of her and caging her between his arms. She felt the heat between her legs get wetter, as she craved his touch more and more each second. He kissed her more, lightly slipping some tongue in as she grabbed his hair in desperation. Before this, he would have sex with her without her being 100% sure about any of it, but this time, she believed, was the first time ever that she was sure. She wanted him, and she wanted him now.
He lets go of the kiss as he peppers her neck and chest with kisses, moaning as he kisses her. He just couldn't ever get enough of her, ever. He was happy that she wanted him as much as he did at this moment.
I'll make it up to you. He thought to himself. I won't ever let anything happen to you. I'll be there for you, I promise. I love you.
He eventually moved his hands down to her legs, softly pushing her long silk dress up to her thighs, continuing to kiss all over her neck and above her breasts. She pushes away from him and looks up, which catches his attention as he stops.
"Do you not want to?" He asks, kissing her lips and all over her face with love and care. "We can stop if you want."
Asuna didn't have words at first. She never thought she would ever hear those words come out of his mouth. She thought it would always just be him doing what he wanted with her with her either consenting to it or not. Maybe he really was trying. She believed him when he mentioned that he just couldn't stand it when she was upset with him. She just hoped that he can stick to what he told her and not shut her out any longer. Hopefully.
She smiled, moving her hand up to caress his beautiful face. She moves up to kiss him on the lips again, pulling him back down again as he rests his forehead on hers. Guiding his hands back to her hips and moving her dress up some more, exposing her panties. She smiles softly at her as he waits for her to answer.
"No. I want to. I want you, Levi."
He didn't need another confirmation from her. With that, she smashes his lips on hers once again, gently pushing her dress up and undoing the corset from behind. Pushing her dress up above her head and throwing it to the side, quickly pulling her panties off and admiring her beautiful, naked body which was lying beneath him. He grabs her breasts, squeezing them and pinching her hardened nipples, causing her to cry out in pleasure. Kissing her all over her body as he kissed both her breasts and trailed down to her stomach. Rubbing and feeling all over her body, moving lower and lower down to her heat. She moans at his kisses, pulling his hair and looking down as he continues to kiss lower.
"You're so fucking beautiful." He says between kisses. "I'm never letting you go, baby... I can't wait to marry you."
His words make her blush so hard, as well as make her more wet with every second he kissed her. He nibbles at the sensitive area around her inner thighs, leaving hickeys everywhere, but nowhere where anyone can see them considering she's getting married for the whole kingdom to see in a few days. He wastes no time in shoving his middle and index and inside her, moaning himself at how unbelievably wet she was.
"Ohhh, fuck...." She whispers between moans. "Levi... ahhhh.."
He pumps his finger into her faster before moving his lips down to kiss her clit softly, teasing her a bit. His finger curled inside her, hitting that spot inside her that he knew would drive her mad. He takes his finger out of her, which made her groan in annoyance as she wanted him to keep doing it. Instead, he moves both of his hands to her cunt, spreading her pussy lips with his thumbs to give him better access to her clit. He moved in and flicked her clit with his tongue over and over, knowing exactly where to kiss and suck to make her squirm. She screams out, feeling her orgasm reaching quickly but not wanting it to end on how good her Levi was making her feel.
"Levi.. ah! I'm..." She moaned out. Her moans and pleas only make him go faster, sucking on her clit by licking and tasting her sweetness. It doesn't take long for her to start cumming on his face, squirming as he continued, keeping her legs open with his strength as he overstimulated her sensitive clit.
"Thats my good girl." He smiles as he continues to kiss her down there. "That's it... You're so good. Fuck."
He was so hungry for her, and he wasn't even close to being done with her tonight.
"Oh my god... Levi." She says, pulling at his hair some more while he leaves kisses around her thighs and admiring her pretty, wet pussy, which was all his, forever.
He moves back up to her, interlocking one of his hands with hers as he gave her what she felt like endless kisses all over her body.
"You ready for me?" He asks, taking off his pants, positioning his hard cock at her entrance, waiting for her consent.
"Yes." She responds, clearly out of breath at the continuing pleasure he just gave her. "Fuck me, Levi. Please. I want you."
He smiles at her, a smile she hasn't seen on him before. A smile of love, of desire, of care. So genuine. He kisses her again before easing himself inside of her slowly.
Please, Levi. Please. Don't shut me out anymore.

Three days later. The day Asuna had been nervous for had finally arrived. Today, she would officially become Levi's wife, and be crowned the Queen of the Walls. Her stomach couldn't stop fluttering in nervousness, she doesn't think she has ever been so scared in her life, for anything. Since her and Levi had that talk a few nights before, he has been nothing but sweet and caring for her. She feels like they have been growing closer, and she finally felt safe and relaxed with him by her side every night. That didn't mean things were perfect though. Levi would still leave every morning and be gone most of the day, coming back at night to comfort her. She would have to reach out herself to ask him about things he had been doing that day, which he would tell her though with very little specifics. It was a work in progress, a work in progress that was going to be harder than she thought.
Dana and the other hand maidens wake Asuna up before the sun had come out. It had to be at least 4 or 5 am, the nerves that she felt that entire night had caused her to only get a mere 2 hours of sleep, maybe less. Levi was already gone, preparing for the wedding on his own terms, so to speak. Asuna showered, with more maids around her that she had wanted, invading her personal space, though at the same time, she had no idea what she was doing. Casually ready to be the bride to the King at a royal wedding with thousands of people seeing her is not something that she had ever done before, nor ever thought she would do.
Luckily, Dana had brought her a cup of caffeinated tea to help her stay awake, which wouldn't matter as her nerves would be keeping her awake all day. She drank it as the hand maidens brought in her elegant wedding dress. It looked like no other dress she had seen before. It was made of silk, shining in the light. The dress had clearly been worked on for weeks, it was so flowery, with sleeves that hung on her shoulders and made her waist feel snug and tight. It was luxurious. The only thing she didn't like about it was that it took almost an hour for her hand maids to put it on her because of how complex the dress was.
Dana had done her hair up so nicely that let half of her hair flow free, her gorgeous curls running down her shoulders as the other half was up in a beautiful braided updo. Lastly, they had put a small veil on top of her head that was surprisingly comfortable. Before long, she was all set, ready to set food outside the castle to get married to Levi once and for all. She took a deep breath, closing her eyes and trying to gather herself and her thoughts all at once, she hoped she didn't pass out from all of the nervousness that lingered inside her mind.
Dana walks up to her, Asuna being taller than her now because of her elegant white heels. She smiles, complimenting how beautiful her Queen looked and how lucky she was to be the personal hand maiden to such a sweet, gorgeous young woman. Taking her hand in hers, she smiles at her in hopes that it will calm her nerves a bit.
"Are you ready, my Queen?" Dana asks, squeezing her hand tighter. The reassurance that Dana gave her made her more confident for the day. More confident that her marriage will get easier. More confident that Levi can be the husband she wants him to be.
"Yeah," She smiles back at her, preparing to leave for the biggest day of her life. Dana's question also reminded her of the other night when Levi asked if she was ready for him. Though that question was under a different situation, she remembered it and thought of it in a different perspective other than just that lovely moment. She laughed to herself, believing she was over thinking it but who cared? She knew what she felt, and she was going to face it.
"I'm ready."

Prologue | Previous chapter
This is home? Asuna thought to herself. It seems way too big to be somebody's home. How on Earth do people live here without getting lost?
"You're probably wondering how none of us get lost in this place all the time!" Hange suddenly puts her arm around Asuna's shoulder, which startled her a bit. "Don't worry! In no time you will be walking around this place like a pro! Almost like if you owned the place! Even though you basically already do." She laughs.
Own the place? Are you serious? I could barely manage my own place back at the estate.
"Now! Let's give you a brief tour of the ol' place and get ya settled." Hange then grabs his her hand from Levi's and leads her to the front. Levi not following behind them. Hange is probably a better person to guide her around the castle, he'll see her soon enough, anyway.
Asuna turns around to see Levi speaking with Erwin. She hasn't even entered the castle yet and he is already setting her off to the side. Damn, this is going to be hard.
Asuna and Hange both entered the castle with guards following behind them. Now that Asuna is going to be the future queen and Levi's wife, she is going to be guarded whether she likes it or not.
The moment she walked in she was in shock, it was way more beautiful than it was on the outside. With pink and red carpeted floors and beautiful white walls that were designed professionally. This looked like it was one of the many entrances in the castle, and not the main one. She was intimidated to see the rest. Asuna did not let go of Hange's hand, for the past several hours that she was able to talk and get to know what kind of person Hange was, she could tell she was a trusting, sweet, person who she can stand beside when she gets scared.
"Now, where you like to start?" Hange smiles at Asuna. Letting go of her hand and holding hers out in excitement. "We can start with the main throne room! We could see the mess hall where most of us eat, or the kitchens! I'd love to introduce you to my squad! You'd love Nifa, don't tell anyone but she's my favorite!" Hange rambled on and on, Asuna wondered why she was so excited for her to arrive, they barely know each other, after all.
"Or we can check out the Scout Regiment offices! They are so beautiful and spacey! Or we can-"
"Hange, you are so sweet." Asuna interrupts. "I would love to see everything, but right now I think I just want to settle in and get some rest."
From the past experience of the carriage ride with Hange talking her ear off and giving out countless amount of information that she probably won't remember the next day, she knew that she should probably stop her now before she goes overboard again.
"Oh yes! Of course! Apologies, my Lady." Hange puts her hand over her head realizing that she may be too much for this scared right at the moment. "I tend to be a bit overwhelming sometimes without meaning to!" That's an understatement.
"Here, let's get to your room! It is on one of the highest floors in the castle, also one of the biggest rooms. To be fair, I'm quite jealous!"
"Oh, is it my own room?" Asuna replies with denial.
"Oh gosh no!" Hange laughs. "It's Levi's room, you're going to be his wife! His Queen! It sort of defeats the purpose if you both don't stay in the same room!"
Gosh that was a stupid question. I should have known. My bedroom is going to be the same as Levi's, duh. What is wrong with me?
"Right..." she responds, forcing out a small chuckle.
With that, Hange leads her to up to her new room, it felt like forever to get up there. Countless amount of stairs that left her tired by the time they made it to the floor. They finally got up there and introduced to her room.
It had two doors instead of one, when they walked in she was actually quite surprised and excited to see her room. There was a large king sized bed that was perfectly made, a large bookshelf to the right that had countless amount of books that can help her pass the time. She could immediately tell which side was Levi's, his shirts and uniforms were hung up against one of the closets, ironed and cleaned. To her left was the large bathroom with a built in shower and bathtub, with fruit scented soaps and shampoos, must be Levi's doing. In the corner of the room there was a small table where he most likely had his morning tea and worked in peace without interruption. One thing that captivated her was the large balcony to the left, next to an empty closet behind her suitcase that seemed to have already been delivered to her room. Damn, that was fast.
"This is beautiful," Asuna says. Walking towards the balcony and opening the tainted glass door, walking out to see that it was larger than she expected. There were even porch chairs out there. She looks out to see the enormous town that stood below her, lighted up in different places with torches and with the moonlight acting as a spotlight. It was huge, and this was only one of many of the large towns that were within the walls, she couldn't imagine how big life within the walls actually was. How the hell am I going to be the Queen of all this? She thought.
"I knew you'd like it." Hange smiles. "Is there anything else I can do for you? You must be so eager to get settled."
"No, thanks.. It's just... it's overwhelming." Asuna replies. "I just... have no idea how the hell I ended up here in a matter of just one day." she laughs.
"Ha! That's what Erwin and I thought!" Hange states.
"Erwin?"
"The tall blonde man with the bushy eyebrows that came with Levi and us when we met you! He's the commander of the Scouts, I am basically his unofficial second in command. You can come to him with anything also, he may be tall and intimidating, but inside he's a sweet guy who just wishes the best for you!" she finishes.
Asuna nods and thanks Hange. She doesn't know what she would do without all of her help. Probably shaking in a corner terrified to even move. And with Levi no where to be found since they arrived, it really seems like she could use a good friend like Hange right now.
"I'll leave you to it, then. Perhaps sometime tomorrow, I can finally give you that tour of the castle like I promised!" Hange bows to Asuna, as she nods and thanks her once again. She was more than grateful at the help and support that Hange has given her, but right now, she just wants to settle in and get some sleep. Hange steps out and closes the door behind her and hears her walk off, but after a few seconds, she hears the doors lock which alarmed her greatly.
Curious, she walks towards the door and attempted to open them to try and make sure that her ears didn't lie to her, but she didn't, she was locked in. Backing up in shock, she tries to calm herself and just try to relax as much as she could, though it was very difficult to do so.
She felt disgusting, she desperately needed to bathe and get out of her dress that she has been wearing all day. She wanted nothing more but to put on a soft nightgown and get freshened up. She opens up the large closet drawers which she assumed was her new wardrobe because of her suitcase standing right in front of it, but found nothing. There was no clothes in there at all, completely empty. Sighing in defeat, thinking how this day could not get any more unfortunate, she just chooses to shower instead, at least there was fresh towels and soap that she was able to use.
The shower felt so good, the warm water was almost endless, something she wasn't used to at all. She may have grown up in a decent middle class home, but the water was scarce and not usually this nice. It felt so nice to finally freshen up, as she got out of the shower she was reminded that she doesn't have any other clothes to wear at the moment. So she had no choice but to put on one of the dresses she had packed in the suitcase. I knew these would come in handy.
Brushing her hair out, brushing her teeth, and getting into a new dress. She looked at the bed and groaned on how excited she was to get some sleep. She laid down for a little while but simply could not get herself to fall asleep. It must have been the nerves, normally when she was this tired she could fall asleep almost immediately.
Defeated, realizing that she probably wasn't going to get any sleep anytime soon, she looked at the time on the clock on the nightstand on Levi's side, it was almost 3am. Jeez, have I ever been up at this hour before?
She soon realizes that she literally has a balcony with an undeniably beautiful view now. She goes out there and collects her thoughts. She didn't think she would ever get used to this new reality, still no sign of her future husband, she stands alone out there. The breeze felt so nice, the soft Autumn air calmed her down a bit. She thought of what her dad is doing right now, what Harrison was doing. Probably passed out drunk and asleep. She missed them already, she wondered if Levi would invite them to the wedding. When was that going to take place, anyway?
It didn't seem like she was out there for that long when she heard the door unlock. Turning around immediately, the door opens to see the only person she expected to see, and it was him.
"Levi..."

Prologue | Previous chapter
Chapter 3: Welcome Home.
Levi continued to look at his future wife with interest, attempting to read her emotions that are scattering through her brain. Normally, he could tell what girls that are looking at him are thinking. Sometimes he sees fear, most of the time he sees lust and attraction, overly polite and trying too hard to please him. Though when he looks at Asuna, he can't tell what she is thinking. He guesses it might be fear, confused at her inevitable future, one thing he could tell, is that she wasn't fond of him in the slightest.
She wondered what would happen if she didn't walk out of that house when Levi arrived, it was fairly late in the afternoon. It was about the time where she is supposed to head to the nearby market to pick up dinner for her and her dad. If she went there instead, everything would turn out differently. God, if she had only just did that, she cursed herself under her breath. She felt like an idiot. If she was going to become the Queen of the Walls, how was she supposed to manage making the right decisions in her life?
Harrison couldn't handle it anymore, he wiped the coming tears from his eyes and walked away, grabbing his basket that he was holding before he showed up. Attempted to go back to continue to what he was doing around the estate.
Dan wanted to do the same, but he knew that his daughter needed him most at this very moment, if he walked away, she would feel more alone than she feels like she has been for most of her life. He shouldn't have been so distant towards her, he shouldn't have chosen a bottle of liquor over her, he shouldn't have caused the outcome of owing a tremendous amount of money to the King just for his daughter to have to pay the price. He contemplated changing his mind and telling Levi that he can't take her and just to take him instead, to get on his knees and beg Levi for forgiveness and to please not take his only kid away from him. But he couldn't, it was too late, Levi was not going to change his mind. And with that, he went up to his daughter who still was holding onto Levi's hand with unease.
She turns to look at him. She is no longer crying, just an expressionless look on her face that he also couldn't interpret. Levi allows them to have a moment to themselves and backs off, turning around to talk to Erwin and his other men who accompanied him on this trip that led to an unexpected turn of events. Dan grabs his daughter's hand and led her to their front porch to talk in more privacy. He didn't know what to say at first, he stood there with his mouth hung open with the hope that she doesn't think that he never cared for her.
"You are going to be okay," He breaks the silence. "I don't want you to think for one second that I am doing this because I want to, if it was my choice, I would make it my life purpose to pay every dime I owe to him, but clearly, that's not an option."
Asuna didn't say anything, just continued to listen to her father's sad attempt at trying to make her feel better.
"You're strong, the strongest girl I've ever known. I don't know how you managed to become the woman you are. Your mother, was weak and a coward, and that's why she left. And me? You have not met any of your other family members because I refused to acknowledge they exist, because I am afraid. I mean look what you just witnessed? It came to the point where I chose to give you to Levi before I could even think of my head being removed from my body or worse."
Asuna's tears begin to form again. She doesn't think she has ever seen this side of her dad before. She wanted to speak up and argue, but there would be no point.
"You're going to make an amazing queen." Dan attempts to finish. "And... just remember that I love you, more than anything, I may have been a shitty father, but from the person I can see before me, the person you've become, I feel like I must have done something right."
And with that, Dan takes his daughter in his arms and embraces her. It takes her a few seconds to hug back, but soon she does. She silently cries quietly into his shoulder so that the man who will soon become her husband doesn't see her in such distress.
Asuna was a kind soul, all her life she never did any wrong to anybody, even with her mom that she barely remembers leaving and not attempting to ever have a relationship with her, she still thought that she deserved forgiveness. She forgave her dad for everything, she knew he was troubled and that perhaps this situation would inspire him to change for the better. Without her on the estate to help anymore, maybe he would finally step up and fix his life. And she believed he would, with ever bone in her body.
Asuna and her dad held onto the hug for what felt like several hours. She didn't know when she would see him again, or if she would ever see him again. Finally, the tall, blonde haired man with a Scout Regiment uniform on breaks the touching moment and speaks out.
"My Lady," Erwin calls out. Asuna was not used to that in the slightest, perhaps he is calling her that because she is now officially a 'lady.' Oh god, what are they going to call her once she marries Levi? The thought gave her chills down her spine, yet she was slightly curious. "The hour is growing late, we should get going back to Sina soon. If you need time to pack some things, now is the time to do so."
Levi continued to look at her. Arms crossed with his black blazer hanging over his shoulders, slightly leaning back against his horse, he waited patiently for her to get on with it, back her stuff, and get in the carriage to come with him. He eagerly wanted to get back to his castle and get her settled, dress her in the finest dresses, and show her off to the rest of the people who worked in the castle, and his subjects who desperately wanted to finally see him with a future queen. Eventually, she nods her head and proceeds to walk into the house to gather her things. Her dad doesn't follow her, he just nods his head at Levi and his men, sits back down on the porch chair where he normally lies in, and grabs the half full glass of whiskey that he had forgotten about from earlier.
Asuna goes upstairs and walks into her room and closes the door, finally having a moment to herself to process what is about to happen to her. She will no longer be finishing her day in this room anymore, she will no longer sleep in this bed anymore, she won't have to wake up and tend to her father's land anymore. For the first time in her life, her future and what she will wake up to every day was completely unknown.
After bottling up the emotions she felt inside for what felt like her entire life, she breaks down. She falls to her knees, palms covering her face and just cries. She attempted not to cry so loud so that anybody who may be listening and waiting on her will hear. Trying so hard to control her breathing and get control of herself, a few minutes pass by until she gathers herself, taking a deep breath as she grabs the suitcase that was laying underneath her bed, grabbed some of her dresses and soft cloth shirts and pants and put them in the suitcase.
After she finished packing her clothes, she grabs a couple photos of her and her dad, some with Harrison, and the only picture that she has of her mother. It was a picture of her and her mom when she looked about 2 years old. Her mother looked so happy in the picture, holding her kid tightly as she smiled and laughed. Asuna looks at the picture a little longer until putting it in the suitcase. Lastly, she puts on the necklace that her father gave her when she was around 5 or 6 years old. It was a small, round pearl colored, 24 karat pendant with golden rose designs around it. It is actually a locket, but she never got around to putting a picture inside of it, so she just kept the totem close to her as a reminder that she was lucky to be born with a family. She kissed the pendant around her neck and hides it under her dress.
"Taking your time?" a familiar voice says from behind her, startling her. She gasps and quickly turns around. Seeing no other than the man she is being forced to marry, Levi Ackerman.
"How long have you been standing there?" she replies, not answering his original question.
"Not long, I was checking to see what was taking you so long, it is going to get dark soon." he says, walking closer.
"Yeah, I was just, trying to gather as much as I could."
"Well, just letting you know that you don't need to bring much," he states. "Everything from clothes to daily things will be provided for you."
She didn't know what that meant. Is he going to provide her with new underwear and bras too? Might as well give her a few face and body while he was at it. She nods, zipping up her suitcase and attempting to take one last look at her childhood bedroom.
"Look," Levi speaks, which causes her to turn around to him with those glowing green eyes of hers that he was oddly attracted to so much. She eagerly waited for him to say what he was going to say.
"I know you didn't ask for this," he continues. "It is a really brave thing that you're doing trying to help your dad. I am attempting to process the fact you aren't doing this because you want to, but doing it out of the kindness of your heart to help somebody else-"
"You are not doing this for me either!" she interrupts. "You are doing this either because you have to, or you're trying to get back at my father..."
He doesn't know exactly what to say, knowing that she is slightly right. Not having to worry about finding a wife nor worrying about Dan Reiss anymore. But the thing that couldn't escape his brain about all this was he didn't have to do any of this, he could have just killed Dan and went on his merry way. He couldn't help but wonder why he was so intrigued by Asuna or why he made the impulsive decision to stop the execution of Dan and marry his daughter. Maybe one day he will find the answer to his question and impulsiveness, but right now, he's just going to follow his gut. Silently ignoring what she said, he takes a breath and continues his statement.
"...and with that, I respect you. More than you know. I won't ignore you, I won't hurt you, I won't be unfaithful to you. After today, you won't just be my fiancee, you will be my future queen. There is no way around it, and I know you are smart enough to remember that."
He grabs her hand in his like he did earlier, but this time squeezing it, he looks back up at her and gives a slight smile. For the short time she has known him, she hasn't seen him smile before. From what she can tell, he seems like a miserable and frustrated man. Given a duty that he did not ask for by the hands of his uncle. A duty that he sometimes pretended wasn't real. One thing that constantly hung over his head for years was the fact that he needed to get married. He needed to produce heirs to continue the Ackerman bloodline. Now finally, he doesn't need to worry about anything anymore.
She looks back down and nods her head. She was done processing it all, she was ready. And for the first time, she looks back up at him and gives Levi a soft smile, which warmed his heart a little. Picking up her suitcase and awaiting for his move so she could follow him. With that, Levi snaps his fingers and Asuna hears footsteps coming up the stairs. Suddenly, a man dressed in a Military Police uniform walks in and bows his head, reaching out his hand to Asuna's suitcase to grab it from her so she doesn't have to carry it. She has barely been Levi's official fiancee for an hour, and she is already being treated like royalty. She hands the man his suitcase as he carries it downstairs.
Levi, still holding onto her hand, lets go and steps aside so she can walk out first. "Come on, it's time to go, there is a carriage that you can ride in, it's about half a days ride from here, we should arrive by the late evening."
With that, she walks out and heads to the so-called carriage that awaits her. She walks out of the house from what she feels will be the last time. With Levi following her. When she walks out of the house, she glances to her left to see her father still sitting in his casual spot on the porch, with his glass of whiskey still in his hand that looks like it has been poured recently.
"I'll give you another minute to say goodbye." Levi says as he walks back to his horse, saddling it for departure.
Asuna looks at her father as he stands up to give her one last hug goodbye, with his glass of whiskey still in his hand. Stumbling to approach her due to his drunken state, he slurs his words and smiles "I'm so so sooo proud of you, you're going to do such great things."
As he tries to give her another hug goodbye, she slaps his arm away. With Levi turning to watch the whole ordeal in the distance. She refused to hug her dad at this point, she had already given him more hugs than he deserves at this point.
"Now that I am not going to be here anymore to take care of things, I truly expect that you make sure that things stay managed around here," Asuna says with slight anger in her voice, and hopes that he will actually listen this time. "Cara, Fari, Gary, all of our kind workers and farmers that are nice enough to help tend YOUR land. And Harrison, you better treat him like he's your own and don't take his loyalty for granted." she finishes.
Dan looks down and nods smiling, secretly proud of himself for raising such a strong and brave woman. She wasn't his little girl anymore, she was a grown woman who was soon going to be the next Queen of the Walls.
"Can you do that for me?" She continues due to his silence. "Can you promise me, dad?"
"Yes, honey, of course." He replies after a couple seconds. "I will do better, I promise."
She breathes a sigh of relief. Smiling and looking at her dad for what will probably be for a long time, before she walks off to start her new life, she grabs the glass of whiskey that he was still holding in his hand and smashed it on the wood floor. Shocking Levi and everyone else who witnessed it.
With that, she walks towards the carriage. Most of Levi's men already setting off, with a few stragglers and of course, Levi himself waiting for her. Before she knew it, a woman who she recognized when the whole debt ordeal went on approached her with enthusiasm.
"Asunaaaaa!" the woman calls out to her, causing Asuna to stop in her tracks. "Sorry! I mean, My Lady!!! But soon to be my Queen! It is so nice to do the honor in being your subject, as well as your helpful guide to the start of your new life!" Hange holds out her hands and puts them in Asuna's, with such excitement and passion. It makes Asuna move back a bit with uncertainty.
"I'm Hange Zoe, I am a section commander in the Scout Regiment, as well as Levi's dearest frien-"
Levi interrupts Hange. "Oi! Shitty glasses, if you weren't aware, we need to get a move on. You can torture her with your constant talking on the ride there."
"Right, of course!" Hange looks back at Asuna and rolls her eyes at Levi's unnecessary comments, which makes Asuna chuckle a bit. "This way!"
Hange doesn't let go of Asuna's hand as she leads her to the carriage that awaited her. She let's Asuna go in first as she follows her. Looking out the window, Asuna sees that Levi has already gotten on his horse with his other men and took off, with a couple men staying behind to follow behind the carriage to protect it. Hange sits down across from Asuna and waits for her to process the fact that she is actually leaving.
"None of this seems real," Asuna breaks her silence.
Hange laughs. "Don't worry, sweet girl! This may be scary, but you seem like such a tough young lady that you can get through anything! Even if that means being taken away from your home and sold off to the the King of the Walls!"
It was understandable that Hange was attempting to make her feel better about the situation, but it occurred to Asuna that this woman didn't have a filter or any common sense of comfort in that regard.
"If you need anything at all," Hange continues. "You can always come to me!"
Asuna smiles at her and nods. Silently thanking her for offering to be there for her. As the carriage begins to depart, she looks back one last time at her home. Tears attempt to form in her eyes but she stops them. She sees her father still standing there from where she smashed his glass of whiskey, looking and waving goodbye until going back and sitting down on the rocking chair on the front porch. One thing that broke her heart a bit, was there was no sign of Harrison. She had not seen him since he stormed off in tears at the realization that she was leaving. He was her lifelong friend, an orphan who was taken under Dan Reiss' wing and became somebody she truly admired and cared for. It was valid that he was upset at this situation, but the least he could have done was bid farewell to her. But instead, there was no sign of him as she left.
Hange talked for almost the entire carriage ride to the castle within Wall Sina. She brought up the beauties of the castle and all of the stores and places to explore within Sina. How delicious the food is and how talented the chefs within the castle are. Hange also brings up how they are struggling to find a solution towards the titans that surround the outside of the walls, she almost seemed enthusiastic about the titans and what kind of purpose they hold in this world. Hange goes on to state how pampered Asuna is going to be considering she will be the Queen, how there will be countless girls who will wish they would be her, how amazing the libraries are within the castle and the gardens that surround it.
She was really intrigued at the thought of the gardens that Hange mentions, maybe that can be her means of escape when she needs it. She loves being surrounded by the scent of roses, lilies, and the fresh air of true nature. Considering she is now going to live in a crowded town within a so-called big castle without any grasp of the open fields she was always used to, the thought of the gardens excited her.
Asuna tried to close her eyes to get some rest and free her mind from anymore stress, but before she knew it, Hange was waking her up to inform her that they have arrived. It was dark outside at this point, she collects herself and accepts, finally getting to see for herself what will be her future. Hange steps out of the carriage first, and before Asuna can step out herself, Levi is there right outside to helps her down from the carriage. She takes his hand and steps out, attempting to get familiar with her surroundings, but processing it seemed almost impossible to her.
She looks up to see a monstrous castle that stood above her, with guards standing at every angle. It was beautiful, but intimidating. A large pathway leading to a large entrance to the castle stood before her, with torches lighting up most of the area so that she would see what was in front of her, the pathway looked like it was miles away. Before she knew it, bells rang from every inch of the crowded city, most likely to signal the arrival of the new Queen. Her heart raced so hard, she tried so hard not to shake and show the fear that lingered within her. Instead of showing the true fear that she kept inside, she held her head up high and looked back at Levi. He held out his hand for her to grab it, in which she instinctively did so. He spoke up so that she didn't have to.
"Welcome home."

Chapter 1: The Debt
Levi woke up in the master bedroom of his castle within wall Sina, alone, as usual. A lot of the time he has occasional women who he decides to use for the night, whom he sends away after getting what he sent them there for. Most of them fall in love with him and wish in their heart they could marry him and become his queen. Their wishes were always just dreams, though, Levi did not care much about who he slept with nor what they wanted. He was frustrated, only feeling like he needs the pleasure of sex but feeling nothing more emotional than that.
Most of the time he wishes he could feel like sex meant something to him, but it never did. 29 years old and he never felt anything. Was it his mind? Does he think it's something messed up in his brain that he thinks he could never feel any different when it comes to some girl in his bed. Who knew, and who cares. He had a kingdom to run.
He thought he was alone, in fact, most of the time he preferred it, but he turns to see a girl in his bed. Ah, of course. It was the handmaiden who he ran into after an all-nighter of paperwork and research, he was honestly disgusted with himself.
"Why are you still here?" he says, to blonde haired girl who he doesn't remember the name of.
"Sorry... I was just leaving" she responds.
"I thought I told you to leave right afterwards-"
"Sorry, your Grace, I just thought-"
"Thought what?" he snaps, with a more passive tone than usual.
The girl looked at him with fear, as he stared her down and gets up to put his clothes back on and get in the shower. She doesn't say thing, too petrified to answer. She knew it didn't mean anything, she knew that the King didn't give less of a rat's ass about what she felt. He didn't even look at her as he got dressed. She attempted not to cry as she got up, put on her handmaiden dress and walked out, without a single glance from the man who was just inside her the night before.
Levi took his daily morning shower and got dressed into his fancy clothes, ready to put on a show to those he couldn't give less of a shit about.
"Morning, your Grace!" says the Military Police guards who watch his bedroom door every night.
He doesn't respond. He walks by with his casual stoic expression that engrains everyone's mind every once in a while.
As he walks by people to get toward his office, he sees all of them looking and bowing to him as if he was some sort of God. He wasn't a God, he was just a man. A man who somehow managed to become the King of the life as we know it. As if everyone knows, this is the only life in existence, nobody around him knew if there was life beyond the walls or if this was it. If they were stuck in a nightmare that was impossible to escape.
Levi always dressed professionally and casually, except for when he was in his Scout uniform, he was a clean and professional person anyway. Nobody would ever see him look his worst, nobody would ever see him cry or look like he's been defeated, he refused.
As he walked to his office for his meeting with Commander Nile Dok of the Military Police and Commander Keith Sadis of the Scout Regiment, he runs into one of his closest colleagues, Section Commander Hange Zoe.
"Leviiiiiii!!!" Hange says with passion. She didn't bother to call him 'your Grace' or 'my King' because it didn't matter to her. Whatever she says to him, he wouldn't punish her anyway.
"Huh?" he says without looking at her. "I got somewhere to be."
"With Nile, right?" she responds. He actually looks at her with confusion. Hange shouldn't know about his meetings with commandments she has nothing to do with.
"Yeah, about that," she continues. "It's about Dan Reiss."
The thought of that name made him fuel with rage, but he hides his anger deep inside him. Everyone he is surrounded with knows that he can visibly get angry, almost furious like he is about to murder everyone around him, but he stays calm this time.
"What happened now?" Levi questions with a sigh.
He knows all too well the name of Dan Reiss. A nobleman who is particularly rich within the walls. He has two other brothers as he knows, but never met them at all. Dan Reiss was the only Reiss who actually had a relationship with King Levi. They didn't make much of a friendship, but they had a particular type of business relationship after all. Reiss' money was scarce for a long time, and with his power hungriness, it became almost nonexistent.
Dan Reiss is an alcoholic, and gambler. He spends most of his days drinking or playing poker at the local village next to his estate, without a care of the world towards his caretakers of his land or even his only daughter. He believed that his money and status would save him from anything. Though, when it came to his relationship with the King, he didn't have much luck anymore.
"So, yeah" Hange laughs. "He's absolutely bankrupt! All the money he owed you is gone, I think?"
He looked at her with furious rage. Why did this man get to him so much? He was a nobody. Levi had all the money in the world yet this man continues to aggravate him to his limit. Maybe it was the reason that Dan Reiss had claimed numerous times that he would pay him back, and that he would help the kingdom with the constant famine and poverty that lies within it. Not to mention the orphans that continued to roam the street unwanted, the thought of all those kids out there with no family makes his blood boil. There was plenty of men and women who owed him money, but he didn't give them a second glance. For Levi, his anger was all put towards Dan Reiss. He kept betraying Levi at every turn, and Dan was going to pay for it.
Levi gathered up all of his closest comrades and guards to his office. He didn't care about what he had to do that day with other political business that he secretly couldn't care less about. He was ready to storm Reiss' front door and make him pay for what he owes.
Erwin Smith, commander of the scout regiment. Hange Zoe, section commander of the scout regiment. Hange's assistant, Moblit Berner. Nile Dok, commander of the Military Police, and all of his closest guards had agreed to accompany Levi on his trip to Dan Reiss' estate.
Dan's estate was within a safe haven village of wall Rose, it took about half a day to ride there on a horse. Levi still didn't understand why he chose to pursue this man. It wasn't much for him anyway, Levi was rich, the most powerful man in existence for all that everyone around him knew. He didn't need to pursue anybody, maybe it was fate, because it led him to something he never thought he would ever be led to.
It took longer than expected to arrive at Dan's estate. Levi with his many guards and colleagues arrived on the land of Dan Reiss's estate. With roughly 20 some men surrounding the estate, with Levi and Erwin at the front. Levi's eyes looked more upsetting than usual, which makes Erwin look at him in curiosity. Even Erwin didn't understand what Levi's motive was. Perhaps Levi was done with people taking advantage of him.
He stops at the front of the estate. Putting his hand up to let his men know to halt. He looks up at the estate to see the man himself looking at all of the royal men at his doorstep. Surprised, and drunk, Dan Reiss gets up from his seat on the porch deck of his estate, absolutely shocked to see the King himself with his men glaring at him on his property.
He walks towards the men, stumbling and not being able to see clearly. He stands there without saying anything.
"Lord Reiss!" Erwin Smith says loud enough for everyone on the land to hear. "May we have a moment?"
Levi says nothing, he just stares the poor man down with his familiar stoic glare. Dan is terrified, though can sense why Levi and his men are here at his doorstep.
"Your Grace!" Dan says with excitement. "Wasn't expecting ya!"
Levi stops his silence. "Reiss, you and I both know that this isn't a friendly visit. Why do you continue to defy me?"
Dan is absolutely terrified at this point. He knows why Levi is here. His gambling addiction has finally gotten the best of him. He used all the money he meant to sent to the King to use for himself. He doesn't even try anymore, he knows that him and his power are now gone. He expects execution. He expects a brutal beating from Levi until his brains are on the ground. He drops his glass of whiskey that he poured 5 minutes before they arrived. He gave up.
"I know why you're here, King Levi" Dan says quietly.
"Do you now?" Levi says. Erwin and his men look at Levi and expect the worst. Levi walks toward Dan while he sits there defeated. Dan is ready for Levi's wrath, he doesn't expect any less of him.
"You owe me a debt." Levi continues. He pulls out his knife from the sheath stationed on his right hip, damn, it was sharp.
That is when a girl he had never seen before walks out of the large house, with a basket of fruit to harvest. She looks at Levi and all of his men with confusion, wondering why the hell they are at her doorstep confronting her father. She continues to look at these men, and looks at her father as if she's asking a question without words, but looks right back at the King.
Levi's eyes widen. He did not expect to see a young girl during all of this confrontation that was about to be violent. She is wearing a casual dress, a pink and white layered outfit that seems to be soft silk fabric. It looks like something that would be worn when doing yard work or handling cattle. He doesn't take her eyes off her as she looks with confusion at him and his men. She puts down the bucket and looks right back at her father.
"What the hell is this?" the girl says.
"Go back inside, honey." Dan responds.
The girl doesn't do what she's told, she continues to look back at all the men who look like they are from the royal side of town and glares at them.
"I'm sorry?" Levi interrupts, "Who is this, Reiss?"
Dan Reiss hesitates to respond at first, but knows that he is screwed either way. "Your Grace, this is my daughter, Asuna. She manages most of the work around here."
Levi sits there listening to every word. His eyes do not leave the girl in question. She looks back at him, not with lust, but with disgust. He isn't used to a girl looking at him like that. He wasn't used to someone not looking at him with fear or desire. Most of all, he wasn't used to being fascinated by a girl he has never seen before.
Few seconds after she walked out of the house, another young man comes from behind the estate with a rake and some yard supplies. He stops in shock and quickly runs up to Asuna and stands next to her in a protective stance.
Asuna had emerald green eyes that glowed in the sunlight, her dirty blonde hair was put up in a side braid that went down past her shoulders. The bags under her eyes made it look like she didn't get much sleep. She must be working nonstop on the estate and the land that came with it. She must be too overworked while her alcoholic of a father sits back on his ass and drinks day and night. She was a short girl, Levi guessed that she was slightly shorter than him.
Dan stops and turns to his daughter. "Honey, I really think you should go back inside," he continues. "This isn't something you want to see."
"You got in more trouble, didn't you? What the fuck did you do?!" she shouts at him. "And who the hell is this?"
Levi is shocked at her boldness, her strength, he doesn't think anyone had disrespected or stood up to him like this before.
"You better watch your mouth, girl!" Nile Dok shouts at the girl for her defiance. "You're talking to the ki-"
"Nile- stop" Levi cuts him off. "If the girl wants to act that way then let her, it won't do her much good anyway." He smirks at her. She immediately backs off and continues to glare at this so called King of the Walls.
Asuna didn't need Nile to finish his sentence, him about to say that she was speaking to the King gave her the answer to her question already. She realizes her mistake and quickly backs off, refusing to give eye contact any longer to Levi or his men. Though the expression on her face showed that she was more angry than scared. She denies her father's wishes for her to go back in the house, she just steps back and stands next to the unknown boy who appeared shortly after her.
"Your Grace," Dan speaks up. "If you're going to arrest me, chop off my head, torture me, because of my poor actions, please, just do it already." He pleads with an almost crying emotion to his voice. "Just don't hurt my daughter."
Asuna looks at her dad with a silent plea, tears forming in her pretty green eyes. The unknown man who stood next to her put his arm around her as she attempted not to cry, she didn't want to look weak. She was taught by her father and others in her life to be strong. Despite her external strength, deep inside she doesn't know what to do at this point. If this raven haired man who stormed her property was the King, then there was nothing she could do to change her father's fate. Levi doesn't take his eyes off her, almost feeling sympathetic for her feelings. Is he really about to take this poor girl's father away from her? He didn't know why, but he was infatuated by her, the way she defied him and kept looking at him with a glare, he had to be honest, he was slightly attracted, most would say turned on.
Levi contemplated quietly, looking back at Erwin with a look that Erwin was all too familiar with. Levi was asking him without words on what he should do, but this was on him. He needed to make a decision now. Was he about to kill Dan Reiss in front of his daughter? For the first time in a long time, he was unsure what to do.
"Dad?" she cries. Dan turns to look at his only child and gives her a soft smile. "It's going to be okay honey," he replies. "Be good, okay?"
And with that Dan walks down his porch stairs and towards Levi and his men, preparing for the worst and sighing in defeat. Asuna turns around, hugging the man who stood next to her as he held her, she didn't have any wish to see what is about to happen to her father. He was a good man, except very flawed. The fact he is the oldest of the Reiss sons who came from a noble family life with a good amount of money. He became careless towards his estate and grew socially distant from his daughter and workers as the years went by. He became a struggling alcoholic who owed debts to countless merchants and noblemen, and eventually, the King himself.
"Wait." Levi suddenly speaks. Dan, Erwin, Hange and all of his guardsmen look at their King in confusion and shock. Dan stops in his tracks, Erwin and Levi both glare at each other as Levi smirks back, he knew Levi better than most, almost every time he could tell what he was about to say or what his next action would be, but this time, he hadn't the faintest clue.
Asuna turns around, wiping the tears from her face as she looks at Levi patiently waiting on what he is going to say. He turns his back to Erwin, then to Dan, then lastly, to Asuna.
"Asuna, right?" Levi asks with curiosity. She looks at her dad in confusion for a couple seconds, took a deep breath and responded.
"Yeah." she replies. Some of the guards gasp as her response, mainly on how she responded first of all. Almost everyone responded to Levi as 'Your Grace' or 'My King'. Most people would consider not saying that to him as an act of defiance, and deep down she knew that. But the disgust that she felt towards this man fueled her with every inch of her being. Knowing that he was about to take her father away from her, the only family she really had left as she knew it, she didn't care at this point, she just wanted him to say what he was going to say and get on with it.
"Okay, Asuna. How old are you?" Levi questions.
She was surprised at this random question, secretly trying to find the true motive on why he was asking how old she was. She holds her chin up high, without losing eye contact with him, and doesn't say anything. Though deep down, she was terrified.
"She's nineteen, Your Grace." Dan answers for her. Making her cuss him out under her breath.
Levi doesn't say anything, he just looks down at the ground and sighs. Everyone awaited for him to respond. Erwin, still looking at him, still doesn't have the fainted idea what is on his mind. He sat there for almost a minute and stayed lost in thought. He knows what he wants to do, and knowing that he is the King and can basically do whatever he wanted in the world, he was going to do it. Suddenly, Levi looks back up with ease and looks right back at the pretty girl, then right back at Dan Reiss.
"Reiss, I never liked you." Levi begins. "I always hated how you continue to push my buttons despite knowing all too well what it would cost you. You want to know why I traveled all this way today? I was going to kill you. I was going to make you pay and finally rid myself and my kingdom of your impulsive habits. You continued to defy me and my people, maybe you just want to be punished. Not sure. But now I realize killing you may be too kind for you, and for that, I will pardon your crimes and debt that you owe me."
Dan's eyes widen with shock. Did the King really just pardon him for his crimes? After everything he did? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Everyone else looked with shock and confusion. Levi wasn't the type of man to forget those who have wronged him, nor was he the type to travel half a day for no cost whatsoever. Finally, he speaks up.
"I will pardon your crimes, and your debt, if you give me your daughter's hand in marriage."
And just like that, everything changed for Asuna Reiss.
AN:
[3500 words :0, good lord I really went overboard haha. Thank you for reading, it means the world to me. Honestly I am really proud of myself for finally writing it down and showing it to everyone. &' yes, her name is Asuna. It has nothing to do with SAO or anything I have just always loved the name I think it is very beautiful and unique. Yes, she has dark blonde hair and green eyes. This is mainly meant to be a Levixreader story, so if her features don't match with yours then feel free to change them to your own! In fact, I encourage it. I just think it's easier if the girl has a name. Some may think that this story with Levi as a king may be kind of dumb, but I believe the story in my head is actually very sweet and touching, especially if you love Levi Ackerman as much as I do, not to mention this story very brutal but what's the fun if its not? I'll make sure to include trigger warnings when the story gets dark!
