Nanaba is male in this fic :D
Levi POV
To say things were tense between Erwin and I was like saying the sun was hot or that water was wet or that Hanje orgasms when they make a new titan discovery. Hanje picked up on it easily and came to mediate between us, requesting a meeting with the both of us. We thought it was about the titan brat. It was about my omega ass.
"What's going on between us is none of your business, Hanje." I hissed.
"It is if it's going to affect the way we work. Obviously whatever is going on between you two is serious." They pushed up their glasses and looked between us.
"I have to agree with Levi here, Hanje." Erwin sipped on his tea calmly. "There's nothing going on between Levi and me, and even if there was, it would stay between Levi and me."
Fucker. I hated how he could be so calm and collected. I thought back to his fevered looks and wild touches on my body. Maybe he wasn't always so calm and collected, after all. It gave me a strange sort of thrill to know that I could make him fall apart like that.
I had power over him when I teased him. It was a wonderful feeling to finally have control over an alpha. I had considered purposefully playing with him. So long as I kept in control and didn't let my omega side take over, I could do what I wanted.
I leaned back in my chair, stretching my legs out in front of me. I noticed Erwin's eyes look them up and down. I had to stop myself from smirking at the hungry look in his eyes.
"You know, Hange," I said, ignoring Erwin's looking at me, "I don't know where you got the idea that something was going on between us."
I reached up and tugged at my cravat. I let it fall loose on either side on my neck and started to unbutton my shirt. Erwin watched my every movement carefully and Hanje raised an eyebrow at my behavior.
"What? It's just so warm in here. Quite strange for the season, if you ask me." I unbuttoned it a quarter of the way down, stopping just before I reached the button that would reveal my nipples.
"Levi, it's obvious from the way you two interact." They sipped at their tea. "You two should just fuck and get it over with."
"Hanje," Erwin said, snapping out of his lustful stare and running a hand through his perfect hair. He went back into commander mode and addressed Hanje with his head held high. "Just because Levi is an unmated omega, and I am an unmated alpha, that doesn't mean that we are going to mate."
"Exactly." I said, casually stretching my neck and showing my scent gland to Erwin. He wasn't paying attention, though, still focusing on Hanje.
"So, you don't want him?" Hanje asked Erwin. They seemed to have a silent communication. I bristled. How dare Erwin ignore my when I was teasing him. How dare they talk about me like I wasn't in the room!
"I'm right here, you little shits."
"Whether or not I want him is not what's important. My feelings for him don't matter, at all. Levi has made it very clear on a number of occasions that he does not wish to pursue a relationship with me. We are Commander and Captain and that is all." Erwin said diplomatically. If I was honest with myself, hearing him speak in that strong tone that he used in the court room to save that brat made me a little horny.
Then, he ruined it by opening his mouth again.
"In fact, I've been looking at another omega." He smiled and put his hands on the table.
"What?" I said, almost dropping my tea.
"Really? That's great, Erwin!" Hanje cheered, giving him a friendly smack on the back.
"Who?" I tried not to growl the question. I felt a strange emotion curl up inside of me. I couldn't name it, but I didn't like it.
"Nanaba," He smiled, rubbing the back of his neck and smiling at us. "He's really been catching my eye lately. He's a strong soldier, and he's loyal. He's smart and funny. He's really attractive, too."
No. No. No. Erwin was supposed to praise me like that. He could talk about how smart and strong Nanaba was all day long, but attractive. No. That's me. I'm the one who Erwin's supposed to be thinking about in his lust filled nights alone. Not. Fucking. Nanaba.
"Oh? You like blondes?" Hanje teased.
"I don't discriminate based on hair color, Hanje!" Erwin laughed. "I think he's been responding to my flirting, too."
"Oh?" Hanje asked. It was a silly question. Of course, Nanaba wanted Erwin. Erwin could have practically any omega he wanted. He was the definition of alpha perfection.
"When we're flirting, I send some of my pheromones his way, and so far, he's sent his omega ones back." Erwin's eyes flicked over to mine. "He's a tempting little omega."
I figured out what I was feeling in that moment. Jealously. I, Humanity's Strongest, was jealous of an inferior. Jealous of an alpha's attention. Jealous of Erwin's attention. Disgusting. I looked at Erwin's waiting face. Was he waiting for me to have an outburst? To get on my hands and knees and beg him to take me over Nanaba? Promise to submit to him like the omega I was and promise to do it better than Nanaba ever could? Too bad. I'm done. It was fun teasing him and feeling the thrill of power over an alpha, but now there was another omega in the mix. The whole dynamic of what was happening has changed. Fuck Erwin for being an alpha, and fuck him for ruining my fun.
"I'm very happy for you and him. Now, if you'll excuse me, that brat has been without me for too long. He's probably making a mess." I stood up swiftly, not bothering to push in my chair and darted out of the room.
"Levi!" Erwin called while Hanje cackled in the background. I made my way down to the basement where the most recent Alpha shit stain on my life was being held. I buttoned my shirt and tied my cravat on the way there.
"Captain!" Erd and Gunter saluted me as I came into sight.
"Dismissed." I said, plopping down in the chair outside of Eren's cell. He was in the cell, looking at me wide-eyed.
"But, sir, we have orders to guard Eren until-" Erd started.
"And who did those orders come from?" I didn't even look at the beta.
"You, sir," Gunter, an alpha, said.
"Exactly. Fuck off. Go fuck all the omegas in the building, since that seems to be the only thing you alphas want." I sneered, glaring at Eren. He winced.
"Yes, sir!" Gunter and Erd called. They hurried out of the room and it was just me and that brat.
I hoped for quiet. I just needed a place to think, and I usually did my best thinking while staring at Eren through his bars. I pretended that it wasn't because he was an alpha I had control over, but it was. I was just thinking about whether or not I should talk to Nanaba, just to find out what kind of person he was, when the fucking titan spoke.
"You know," he joked, "fucking 'every omega in the building' includes you."
I had my hands on the bars of his cell in the blink of an eye. He jerked back. His alpha scent flared for a moment before he stifled it. Good. I wouldn't have that shit going down. I don't care that releasing his scent was a natural reaction to being afraid. He would keep that shit under lock and key when I was around or I would beat his scent gland out of him.
"You think that's funny?" I narrowed my eyes at him.
"Yes?" He said nervously. "I just want to cheer you up. You're scary when you're angry."
"Good." I moved back to my chair.
"Wanna-" He started, but gulped when he saw my glare.
"Do I want to what?" I crossed my arms. "Fuck? Is that what you were gonna say?"
"No! Levi-" He sat forward on the bed.
"Captain! I am Captain to you. And, no, brat. I would never fuck a shit like you."
"Captain! I was going to ask if you wanted to talk about it!" Eren sat on the edge of the bed, so close to the bars that he could stick his hand though. I would swiftly remove it if he tried, though.
"What makes you think that I would ever confide in you?" I raised my eyebrows.
"Well, it's pretty clear you are having alpha problems. I'm an alpha. Maybe I can help." He looked down, and I liked the submissive gesture. "I just want to help Captain."
"The only alpha problems I'm having is that alphas exist."
He winced. "Geez, Erwin sure fucked up." He grumbled.
"What the fuck was that about Erwin?" How much did this brat know?
"Look, Captain, it's pretty obvious that Erwin is your alpha-"
"Erwin is Nanaba's alpha." I spat at him. "I'm unmated. I will stay that way until I die. Thank you very much."
"Oh," a look of understand crossed his face. "I see now. Erwin was talking about Nanaba and you got jealous."
"I suggest you stop right there before I grind you up and feed you to the titans with a giant spoon."
"Are you sure he's not just using Nanaba to make you jealous?" He said, ignoring my threats.
"No. Erwin wouldn't do that. It's childish. Besides, I don't care if Erwin wants Nanaba. He can have him."
"You should take an alpha." Eren said, looking mischievous. "See if Erwin gets jealous."
"I just said that that was childish. That's the kind of plan a brat who knows nothing of adult relationships would come up with. We have a relationship built on trust, shithead, and even if it worked and he wanted me again, our trust would be damaged." I adjusted my cravat from where I had tied it so hastily earlier. "Besides, I don't want an alpha who is only interested in me once another alpha is on me."
"I guess you're right, Captain." He hummed. "You're really smart about this, Captain."
"I'm a lot older than you. I'm no brat. I've lived through plenty of relationship drama before." I rolled my eyes as I thought about all the alphas that smelled my heat and then chased after me. They had all come to my door, wanting to mate with me. One had even brought me flowers. Like that would ever interest me. Why would anyone want to watch something beautiful slowly die and then have to clean up its dead petals?
"Captain, can I ask-?" He bit his lip.
"Stop biting that lip or I'll put a gag in you. You can't accidentally turn into a titan."
"Sorry!" He looked away from me. He didn't look like he would continue on his question.
"What is you want to know?"
"There's this omega…" He trailed off, looking at me with wide eyes.
"You want to fuck this omega?" I sighed.
"I want to be his mate! I don't just want to fuck him! I want to love him!" He sat up and gripped the bars.
"That's cute, kid." So the brat was into men. I guess this meant that I would be collecting some money soon. Hanje's squad, Mike's squad, and my squad had all bet on the gender of his mate. All those who said female and non-binary would be paying those of us who said male a pretty penny tonight. Looks like drinks were on Eren's boyfriend tonight.
"Captain, please? Tell me how I can show him how much I adore him?"
"Well, for one thing, you don't ignore him for a long time then try and knot him in the god damn supply closet."
"What? I wouldn't do that to him anyway! That might hurt him, and I don't want to hurt Armin!"
I raised my eyebrows. He realized what he had said a moment later and covered his mouth with his hand.
"So, it's the blonde twink? Your childhood friend?" I asked him rudely.
"His name is Armin, not 'twink'!" He blushed and twisted his angry little fists in the blanket on the bed.
"Uh, huh, that's nice." I scowled. "Look, brat, you really want to show the twink how much you love his ass?"
"I love all of him! Not just his ass!" He grumbled.
"Just especially his ass?" I asked, all too knowingly. Alphas were animals that wanted a sweet hole to fuck. Nothing more.
"Well, it is a really nice ass." He admitted after a moment.
"That's what I thought." I ran a hand through my hair. "Treat him like a person. Don't try to do every little thing for him. We're omegas, not helpless. Don't touch him too much, or else he'll think you're just after his ass, which is probably not far from the truth-"
"I love him!"
"Alphas are beasts that just want to fuck. Hush, now, and don't interrupt again." I challenged him. "Give him soft things with your scent on them. Like your jacket. Omegas love soft things because of the nesting instinct. If you give him something soft, he'll probably sleep with it, like he would in a nest. Your scent that near to him, he'll probably figure out if he wants you or not pretty easily."
"O-oh." He let his fingers slip from the bars. "Thank you, Captain Levi. Thank you."
"Shut up," I said gruffly. Eren smiled at me and then sat back. He was quiet then, probably thinking about his omega.
"Do alphas think omegas are weak?" I asked him. He looked up at me in shock, then I saw the wheels in his mind start turning.
"Don't sit there and try to think of an answer that won't get your ass beat. I'm not going hurt you if you say yes, alphas think we're all precious daffodils made of glass."
"Well, we think you're weak, but not that weak." He looked scared. "Not that you personally are weak; you are Humanity's Strongest! Just that, you know, most alphas think most omegas are physically weaker."
"That's true, for the most part. I mean when an alpha fucks an omega. Omegas get weak when they are horny. Do alphas think about that when they fuck us?"
"God, no! When a horny omega is in front of us, the only thing we think about is how to please them and how to fuck them the best and-"
This was news to me.
"You think about how to please the omega?" I knew I sounded shocked, and that was because I was.
"Yeah. We want to make the omega cum just as much or more than we want to cum ourselves."
"You, the alphas, want to make us, the omegas, cum just as much as or more than you want to cum?"
"That's what I said, yeah." He cocked his head. "Good alphas want to love their omegas just as much as they want to fuck them."
"I'm going to be a good alpha to Armin. I'm going to cuddle him and…" I stop listening as he started to drone on about his twink crush. I thought back to all the times I had ever fucked an alpha. All those times, he had commanded me to beg him for what I wanted. Was it possible that they were just doing that so they knew how to please me? All those times with Erwin, he touched me and pleasured me while I never touched him or pleasured him. Could it be that he wanted to make me cum more than he wanted to mark me with his cum?
I would have to think about this.
"Bye." I said, standing up in the middle of his love rants.
"Oh? Where you going?" He asked.
"None of your business." I bristled.
As I walked out of the basement, I thought about everything he had said to me and everything I said to him. I found the closest scouting legion member. She looked a bit familiar.
"You, there," I grabbed the beta girl's shoulder.
"Gah! Captain Levi!" She saluted hastily.
"You know an omega by the name of Arlert?" I asked her impatiently.
"Sasha! I got some bread! Score!" A buzz cut brat barreled into the room. His arms were full of presumably stolen bread loaves.
"Captain Levi!" He called out, dropping the bread on the dirty floor and saluting.
"Shut up! Either of you know the omega Arlert?"
"Armin?" The beta boy asked. He moved closer and I smelled the girl's scent on him. Oh, boy. Looks like these two betas are messing around in addition to stealing bread. I didn't give a fuck about the bread, that wasn't my department, but I did care about them fucking.
"Yeah, Armin. You go get him and send him down to Eren."
He hesitated.
"Now," I added. He shuffled off, giving looks back behind him at Sasha.
"You," I turned on her. She gulped. "You on birth control?"
"No," she said shakily.
"Clean up these loaves and then report to Hanje Zoe for birth control." I brushed passed her.
"Yes, sir!" She called, relief all over her face.
I opened the door to leave back to my room, and took one last look back at her. She was cleaning up the bread all right… by eating it. I shuddered, thinking about the dirt on it.
"Brats are disgusting." I grumbled to myself. I thought back to Eren's answering my questions. "Brats are disgusting but sometimes useful."
I hoped he liked my present of Arlert. Erwin face popped up in my mind. Maybe I'd get a present of my own, one day.
I've noticed that in a lot of fics Levi either loves eren - like ereri love - or he hates him. I just want them to be friends in this fic.
