The anger was twisting into something more. It swirled inside me like a treacherous wind that left a lingering smell in the air. My body ached, burned underneath all the clothing.

I was wielding myself against the urge to show any sort of need or desire. But I was sure Levi could sense the lust radiating off me. The feeling of his soft lips continuously brushing against mine in a slow, agonizing manner was driving me insane.

My breathing started to become uneven and my grip around his collar was slowly fading.

"You damn brat," he growls. "I told you keep your feelings to yourself and now look at me. I don't know what to do with that information."

His right hand slowly snakes up to grab the back of my neck while the other hooks around my waist. My body was still and stiff, I didn't dare to move in fear of ruining this moment. My mouth was dry but I force myself to speak anyway.

"What ideas do you have in mind?" I breathe.

Levi took his sweet time and tighten his grip behind my neck. He kept his hooded eyes firmly set on me, not once averting it as kept touching my lips with his. I almost buckled to his warm breath greeting my face.

"An assortment," he replies gruffly. "One, I throw you out of my room. Or two, I take you up against a wall till I hear you scream my name."

God, spare my soul. His words brought endless knots to my insides. My heart thudding against my chest making me feel so sure Levi could hear it too.

Too much heat radiated between us that it became too hard to ignore. I give him a taunting smirk, his eyes glinting in mischief.

"I prefer the second option," I murmur. "How about you?"

"Gotta say, has to be my best idea yet." Levi doesn't waste a second to crash his lips onto mine. I moan at the force of the kiss, my hand immediately dropping from his collar.

My back hits a wall with a low grunt escaping me. He moved his lips in a ravaging, desperate manner. One I could tell he wanted this more than me. I welcomed this side of him with open arms.

Only I got to see the arousal side of Levi. Only I could feel his touch and body pressed against mine. Only I can make him become a moaning mess.

Such things ignited something within me. My body moves on its own as I hastily wrap my arms around Levi's neck. My mind was complete mush despite him only nibbling on my lower lip right now.

I've felt it again, that electrifying feeling rushing to my core. It made me feel hot and needy. It was only Levi that filled my mind, just how I liked it.

I open my mouth for him, giving is tongue entrance. I greeted his tongue with mine to create such a dance it had me moan. Levi moaned along with me, his knee coming between my thighs as he lifts me up with one hand. He breaks the kiss to only plant angelic ones along on my jaw and cheek.

"You like this?" Levi growls in my ear. "Enjoying how I kiss you, baby-girl?"

That nickname. That goddamn nickname drove me wild. I whimper when his hot breath caressed the shell of my ear. My back arching in need for more contact.

"I'll take that as a yes," he chuckles darkly. Dragging his lips down the skin of my throat was absolute bliss. My fingers found their way to his hair, entangling themselves within his beautiful strands.

With my back arched and head craned for him Levi knew I was already melting. I knew he enjoyed this. Enjoyed the dominance he held over me. Enjoyed how I parted my lips from his teasing.

He pressed his warm lips against my neck while his hands lazily unbuttons the first few buttons of my shirt.

"You got some audacity to tell me your feelings," he breathes. "How the hell am I supposed to respond to that?"

He trails my collarbone till he heard me suck in a sharp breath. I dug my fingers into his scalp, "You're responding well."

He scoffs, "Indeed I am."

He latches his mouth to my skin, sucking it before pressing his tongue upon it. He moves to another spot and repeats. I was becoming undone.

Everything welling inside was exploding into a high that I only felt with him. I move my hands to his shirt, unbuttoning swiftly till I saw his upper body. He pulls away and keeps his eyes solely on me.

I swallow thickly, dragging my own down to his body. I bite my lower lip, god I missed his perfect body. Slowly, I run fingers down his chest.

Levi shivers at the touch his breath hitching slightly. I move up to his arms, squeezing his biceps till I push off his shirt.

"So, will I be the only one shirtless?" He asks huskily. I smirk at the sight of his frown, his eyes narrowed in questioning.

"Maybe," I move to kiss his shoulder. "I like seeing you without a shirt."

"Tch, I know you like seeing me without clothes, brat."

"Hm, true," I kiss his throat. He cranes his neck to give me more access. I kiss every inch of his neck, not letting a place go untouched.

I felt the vibration in his throat as he tries to hold back a moan. His hands snake inside my shirt, I let out a small gasp when his cool fingers run across my sides. It drove my heart to thunder against my chest.

He reaches up to my breast, fondling them in such a gentle way. I bit back a moan, my back arching to the touch.

I stopped thinking, stopped caring about everything. All I knew was that I wanted Levi. And I wanted him now.

I almost lost it when Levi began to rock his hips towards me. I grasp his shoulders, biting down my lip.

"Look at me," he growls, planting a kiss upon my shoulder. "I said, look at me."

I do as I was told, meeting his lustful gaze. He continued his movements, making me wish there was no fabric between us.

"I want you," he breathes. "I want to take you, right now up against this wall." I release a small whimper when he movements become rougher. "I need to fucking rip those pants off."

I don't respond, couldn't in fear that I would lose my sanity. Levi senses it with a smirk and slams his lips to mine once more. Shoving his tongue inside my mouth, his hands moving away from my breasts towards the belt over my pants.

I do the same, grabbing his own and yanking it away. I never felt so desperate. So hungry for him. I was dying to feel him—

"Hey!! Emma, Levi!!"

Hanji's voice booms through the wooden door. Her fist slamming against it as well. We flinch to the sound of her voice, breaking the kiss in the process. I watch Levi turn to the door with an irritated snarl.

"What the fuck do you want, Shitty Glasses?" Such anger fueled his words, I already expected Hanji to be smirking right about now.

"I need to talk to you two," she replies simply.

Levi rolls his eyes with a scoff, "Tch, that can wait till morning, idiot. We're busy."

"Having sex?" Oh, I know," Hanji snickers. "I can practically hear Emma from the living area."

I blush madly and avert my gaze to Levi's chest. Was I that loud?

What if everyone else heard me too from outside? Damn it, I was being too careless. Levi noticed my flustered state and plants a comforting peck upon my forehead.

"Look, this is important," Hanji urges. "It provides your guy's attention. Now."

Despite the irritation Levi felt he knew she was still his commanding officer before Erwin. He has to follow orders. We both do.

"We'll meet you outside." Levi informs gruffly. Hanji doesn't say more, we waited till we heard the front door close before moving. Levi gently places me back in my feet and fixes my shirt.

"I'm so stupid," I mutter while watching buttoned up my shirt. "I should've contained myself."

"Nonsense," Levi sighs. "So what if they heard? Now they know you belong to me."

I raise a brow with a frown. Levi ignores me as fixes my belt and pants. My heartbeat ringed in my ears as I willed myself to not grasp on hope.

He means it differently. I know him.

"Belong to you?" I ask. "What do you mean?"

He doesn't bother replying as he picks up his shirt, and fixing his attire. I watch him for a moment as he leaves a few buttons undone and run a hand through his hair. My stomach churns at the sight.

"Exactly as how I said it," he replies. "You—you're mine now."

He cups my cheek and kisses me with such passion my knees almost buckled. No lust lingered in that kiss. It was different from all the ones we shared in the past.

He was gentle as he kissed me, as if making sure I understood how sincere he was. When he pulls away I breathless.

He smirks, "Your fault for telling me you like me, baby-girl. Now deal with the consequence."

I watch him wordlessly as he strides out of the room. I blink once. Twice.

Did it mean what I thought it meant? Does he also bear feelings for me? Was that my consequence, that he likes me too?

I hate how he never says what he truly thinks. It makes even more confusing to guess. But, that was a thought I had to deal with later.

Whatever Hanji deemed important, I had to see. Walking out the cabin, I hastily fix my hair when I see everyone standing around the open fire. I ignore Petra's accusing glare as she glances between Levi and I continuously.

I knew she heard and had no luxury in entertains her and her angry scowl. When I stand beside him, he discreetly brushes a hands against mine. I stiffen to the touch but do my best to look normal.

From the corner of my eye I saw the faintest smirk etching into his lips. Damn him.

"Good, everyone's here," Hanji sighs. She stood across the fire. She eyes each of us as if assessing our stance.

Looking at everyone I notice the grave expression bearing upon their faces. Even my own squad looked paler than the rest of us. However, I only noticed two, Sean and Daniel.

I look over the group again. They were one person short.

"Hey, where's Nat?" I demand sternly. Looking over the group I half-expected her to be with the horses. She wasn't.

Through the corner of my eye I see how Hanji presses her lips in a grimace. "That's why I called everyone," she mutters. "She went missing."

My body stills and so does my breathing. I look at her in disbelief not wanting to believe a word she said. Nat was missing. No, I wouldn't believe that so easily. I have to stay calm.

"Missing? Since when?"

"A couple hours ago. Edward said she was gone when he returned to the wagon."

I shift my eyes towards the man beside her. He looked more awful than the rest of us. He didn't bother meeting my stare.

"What happened?" I ask. Edward suck in a breath as if just thinking about this was torture. He clenches his hands in front of him.

"We had to make another run back to Trost earlier because we forgot some supplies and I told Nat to stay by the wagon. And when I came back with what we needed she was gone."

"Did you try to look for her?"

"Yes," he nods. "I asked some people around the area and they said they didn't see or weren't paying attention."

I curse, just flipping fantastic. No witnesses whatsoever. Even Edward didn't see.

But I wasn't going to lose my cool, not in front of these soldiers. My mind was already running wild with theories but I don't voice them out.

I point to Edward, "Get a map and show me where you two were. Hanji, I know this is going to sound ridiculous but, I advice that we head back to Trost. It'll be easier to look for her."

She nods gravely, "I agree. I'm getting a bad feeling about her sudden disappearance."

"Me too." Edward walks back towards the group win a map in hand. He looks at all of us, his eyes wide in fear while he skin turns into another shade of white. "Her life might be on the line."
