"Ugh this game is ridiculous…" Eren complained as his head fell against the desk. He had just lost for the third time in a row and he was seriously getting frustrated with himself with how quickly he fell into checkmate each time.

Levi let out a little chuckle and twirled a pawn in his fingers. Maybe he should take pity on his poor impulsive bratty cat. Obviously chess was not Eren's forte. Heck even Levi didn't enjoy the game all that much, but he was trying to change it up a little. He didn't want their relationship to be based solely on blood and sex. However, as he continued to study the frustrated man in front of him who snarled with pointy little fangs, his resolve melted…just a little. "Eren" Levi waited until those eyes raised to look at him. "We're going to play a new game. Take your clothes off."

Eren's frustrated attitude dropped instantly and was replaced with confusion and a hint of anticipation. "A-all of them?"

Levi smirked. "Yes all of them." He stood up and started to stroll around the desk. "Do you need some help?"

Eren swallowed and he could feel his heartrate increasing the closer Levi got to him. He was completely captivated by the gleam in those silver eyes and froze on the spot. When Levi got closer to him and cupped his cheek, Eren leaned into the caress. He then let Levi stand him up and those chilly fingers pushed under the hem of his shirt. Eren squirmed and his breathing faltered as those fingers continued to trail chilly paths along his heated skin.

"Eren" Levi whispered against his neck having to stand slightly on his tippy toes, but there was no way in hell he was going to ever admit to such a thing. "Be a dear and take your coat off."

Oh and hell did Eren have his coat off in record time. Levi was just lowering himself back down when Eren caught the back of his neck and leaned down to kiss those smooth lips. Lips that tilted into a smile and kissed back. Eren moaned lightly as Levi let his tongue slither between those lips. Levi's fingers were still exploring him and were currently working their way to the belt of his pants. Eren's heart was pounding and he was sure Levi could hear and feel it which made the whole thing a heck of a lot more intense. He knew what his blood did to his sexy vampire.

His sexy vampire that was leaving him in an aroused daze to step out of reach. Levi smirked at the confused look on Eren's face. "Not quite yet. We still have a game to play…" Levi teased and hopped up to sit on the desk. He plucked up a pawn and twirled it in his fingers again. "Finish taking your clothes off for me. I want to watch."

Eren felt a heated flush run across his cheeks and down his neck. With shaky fingers he pulled his shirt off. He took a glance at Levi noticing how those eyes were raking over his now exposed chest. He took a shaky breath and started yanking his boots off. He only lost his balance once, but luckily didn't end up on the floor. He did however get a chuckle out of the man on the desk watching him. The chuckle caused a part of his pride to surface and with a defiant little glare, he wiggled out of his pants extra slow. Hell, he made a show out of it just to show Levi that two could play at this game. He turned around giving Levi a nice view of his stellar, in his opinion, ass as he bent over to pull the pants past his ankles. He was still turned around to hide his new blush as he inched his boxers down.

Levi was sitting on the desk having a hard time remaining there. Especially as those boxers started sliding down those long legs. The pawn he had been playing with was completely forgotten at this point and his breathing had stopped entirely. Once Eren was completely bare to his gaze, he took a deep breath to try and get some oxygen back into his deprived lungs. "Eren come here" Levi demanded in a strained voice.

Eren looked over his shoulder plastering a perfectly innocent look on his face. The twitching cat ears only adding to the image of innocence. "I don't know Captain… I'm feeling a little nervous. Maybe you should come get me…" Eren put on a cute little pout on his plush little lips and Levi completely lost it.

In a flash Levi was standing in front of Eren and pulling him down for a kiss. After a moment of surprise, Eren chuckled against his lips and kissed back just as hungrily. His fingers buried themselves in silky black strands and he pulled Levi in closer as his tongue brushed against the invading one. A moan escaped him as Levi's silky smooth fingers danced against his awakening manhood. Levi encouraged by the moan touched firmer as he backed Eren up. A surprised noise escaped Eren as he collided with the hard wooden desk.

Levi separated their mouths by a fraction breathing heavily. "Bend over the desk" he commanded breathlessly as his hand continued to tease and stroke.

Eren smiled widely, but it turned to a thoughtful frown a second later. "You're still dressed?" Eren wasn't sure what the devilish little smirk playing at Levi's lips meant, but he couldn't say he disliked it.

"You really do want to get fucked over my desk don't you?" Levi teased. "Just look at how eager you are for it." He emphasized the point by running his thumb teasingly over the tip and getting a little shudder and shallow breaths out of Eren. "Don't worry. I'll give you what you want, but we haven't played our game yet. I need you to bend over my desk first."

"O-ok" Eren replied in a breathy voice with eyes at half-mast. He complied and bent over the desk. Another shudder traveled through his body as Levi groped his ass and kissed up his spine.

"And Eren…" Levi whispered against his back causing goosebumps to appear underneath his teasing lips. Levi caressed up Eren's arm and twined their fingers together. "If your claws mark up my desk, there will be painful consequences for you..."

Eren made a pathetic little noise and tried to focus on retracting his claws. He couldn't tell if Levi's fingers brushing the tips of his fingers were helping or not. In one sense it made him want to retract them more, so he didn't accidently scratch him. On the other hand for some reason it was highly erotic to him and made it even harder to focus his mind on the task. He took a deep breath when Levi's weight left him.

Levi took a step back just to admire the image in front of him. Eren looked fantastic bent over his desk breathing heavily. His blush traveling down from the back of his neck drew Levi's attention and he felt his fangs pang with the want to sink into that delicate flesh where blood was rising teasingly to the surface. He tore his eyes away from that tempting neck and smirked at Eren's hands formed into tight fists. No doubt to stop him from scratching the oak.

"Ahh…Levi?" Eren asked hesitantly and looked over his shoulder.

"Oh right. The game" Levi said blandly. "If you stay perfectly still and I get all the chess pieces on your back, I will give you a reward. However, if you move and they fall off, I will punish you and we start over. Make sense?"

Eren's brows furrowed adorably. "What?"

Levi let out a mock sigh. "I guess we'll just have to start and you'll learn along the way…" Levi walked closer to the desk and plucked a pawn off of the chess board. He placed it between Eren's shoulder blades.

"Wait! Levi I'm confused I don't understand-" Eren started, but froze when the pawn fell off of his back. His eyes went wide as he waited to see what would happen. A loud squeak escaped him when Levi's hand made contact with a plump ass cheek.

Levi made a tsk noise. "You're going to have to try harder not to move Eren or this is going to be a long evening for you…" Levi stared at the little red mark from where his hand connected. His blood was singing with pleasure at the sight and his fangs descended slightly. He ran his hand lovingly over the spot. "Let's try again…"

Eren shut his eyes and held his breath as Levi placed the pawn back in the spot. His mind was running with questions about what the hell was going on, but at the same time his blood was happily running south at the thought of Levi spanking him. He felt piece after piece be placed on his back, but eventually he was forced to breath. Unfortunately the deep breath he took displaced some of the pieces. He felt them roll on his bare skin and heard them hit the hard surface of the desk. His ear twitched and he puckered his face knowing what was going to happen next.

Levi let out a breathy chuckle and swiped the remaining pieces off of his back. His fingers then trailed down Eren's spine, over his tail and landed soothingly on Eren's unmarred cheek. He squeezed and relished the little whine that escaped Eren's tightly sealed lips. He watched Eren's face as he massaged the mound under his hand. A second later, he smacked the cheek. Eren's eyes flew open and another squeak burst from his now parted lips. Levi hardened even further in his pants and red started tinting his vision. Levi groaned and grasped Eren's ass cheeks massaging and spreading them. Little noises escaped Eren in response and it had Levi's body tingling with pleasure. He pressed up against Eren's vulnerable body for the friction his own body was demanding. Eren arched slightly at the feeling of the hardness rubbing against him. His mind was misting over as Levi continued to grind and squeeze at him. A little noise of objection escaped him when Levi once again stepped away.

"Get ready. We're starting again" Levi said in a silky quiet voice. His hand smoothed down Eren's back in warning. Eren closed his eyes and focused on taking small breaths this time. Each piece placed on his back was heavy and he prayed that it wouldn't fall off. Of course one always did and Eren would be subject to the sharp sting and careful caresses that followed. He honestly didn't know if he would make it through the night with any sanity left. The painful pleasure was slowly driving him crazy and he was so freaking hard it was unbearable.

His mind was so chaotic that he had no hopes on controlling his inner beast. He was also terrified of leaving marks on Levi's pristine desk, so he clenched his hands tighter. He didn't even notice when the claws punctured his flesh, but Levi did. Red tinted eyes instantly zeroed in on the appetizing red droplets escaping the clenched fists. His hand paused on putting the 30th piece, the black queen, on Eren's sweat glistened back. He took a deep breath through his nose relishing the scent and carefully placed the piece. At this point, Levi wasn't sure how much longer he could last. He picked up the white king. Instead of placing it on Eren's back, he placed it delicately on Eren's tightly closed lips.

"Eren…" Levi said in a quiet voice. "I want you to suck on this king for me…Just for a little bit. You just have one more to go."

Eren slowly parted his lips and let Levi slip the chess piece into his mouth. He ran this tongue over the piece as he looked at Levi. The red tinted eyes were flickering between his hands and the chess piece snuggled in-between his lips. Levi noticed him watching and gave him a small smirk. He picked up the remaining piece and held it up in Eren's line of sight for a second. He then placed the piece right above Eren's tailbone. Levi let out a pleased sigh before plucking the spit covered king out of Eren's mouth.

Eren closed his eyes once more. That was the last piece. He could do this. It was almost over. Than Levi would reward him. Hopefully a reward that involved finding orgasmic bliss because fuck he could use it after all this stinging pleasure. He hoped it would involve him staying bent over this desk because it was kind of comf- A loud squeak escaped Eren and his eyes flew open. His whole body shook dislodging every chess piece on his back. He whined pathetically as something hard was pressed ever so slowly into him into him and twisted gently. He could only assume that Levi had literally just shoved that white king up his ass. At least that's what it felt like. Levi groaned and grasped at one of his tightly clenched fists. Eren let his hand be pulled backwards as the piece inside of him was pressed a fraction further.

"Open your hand" Levi ordered in a strained voice. Eren complied and twitched as Levi tongue ran across the small puncture marks.

Eren continued to make small noises as Levi fucked him with the chess piece and sucked at his abused palms. Finally the chess piece was removed and Eren let out a relieved sigh. He heard the little piece clatter to the floor as Levi released him. He could also hear the sounds of clothing being removed and his heart once again kicked into overdrive. Another embarrassing noise escaped him as a cold wet finger slid into him. Levi's other fingers trailed to the front of him and Eren arched hard into Levi's chest when those fingers closed around him and stroked.

"F-fuck…ahh…" Eren groaned as Levi added another finger.

Levi chuckled against his back and left little kisses along his spine. "That's the idea. You did so good tonight I think it's time for that reward…"

Eren keened as Levi brushed the little pleasure spot inside of him and stroked quicker. His body was burning and Levi's chilled skin touching him was like heaven. He pushed backwards against Levi's fingers.

"I…I…ahh…need you…ple-please…" Eren whined.

Levi groaned and pushed hard with his fingers before removing them all together. He didn't leave Eren waiting for long though before he was pushing back in to Eren's needy body in one go. Eren arched, squirmed and whined at the intrusion. His mind was so lost and he needed Levi to move, but the sexy man had paused once he entered. Eren pushed backwards and wiggled his hips resulting in a finger bruising grip on his hips and a low groan against his back.

Levi's plan of letting Eren adjust was thrown out the window in that second and he started moving. His world shrank down to everything Eren. Of the feeling of Eren wrapped tightly around him. Of Eren squirming below him. Of how Eren's fingers twined in-between his and squeezing in a death grip. Of how those same fingers with pointed claws punctured new little wounds for him to taste. Of the noises falling from Eren's parted lips. The sound of their bodies connecting over and over again. Levi's eyes fluttered shut and he groaned. He didn't know how much longer he could last with the erotic stimulation he was being consumed by. He pried one of his hands free from Eren's vice like grip and instead encircled Eren's neglected length. Eren made a loud moan and his face puckered as every nerve in his body buzzed like an electric current just ran through him. Levi bent over and licked at his back causing another wave to crash against his buzzing nerves. His muscles clenched and a second later he let all the built up energy pulse out of him.

Levi groaned against the sweat slicked back underneath his parted lips. Eren's body convulsing and twitching around him was enough to draw out his own release. A fuzzy warmth coursed through his body and with a couple more lazy movements, he let it drag him down into the orgasmic abyss. He let out a humming noise and draped his body completely on top of the panting figure below him. He nuzzled his face against Eren's warm back and let his eyes close.

Eren shifting below him instantly brought him back to reality and he slowly removed himself. Eren's body shivered at the feeling and his legs finally gave out. He let his body glide off the hard desk and slide slowly down to the ground where he promptly laid on his back. His lungs were still working hard to get oxygen back into his system. Levi watched with a fond smirk and carefully bent down to scoop up the man he wrecked. Eren made a noise, but didn't put up any fight as Levi carried him into his itty bitty bathroom. Levi sat him gently on the toilet and turned on the shower. When it was lukewarm, the hottest it ever got, he pulled Eren to his feet and directed him under the spray. Eren squeaked when Levi's fingers slid between his ass cheeks.

"W-what are you doing?" Eren asked in a slightly high pitched voice. Although he didn't swat Levi's probing hands away.

"I'm cleaning you up" Levi said as he placed a quick peck on Eren's shoulder.

Eren frowned slightly, but didn't put up any more protest as Levi cleaned him. The blush on his cheeks was the only indication of how awkward he felt. After Levi deemed him clean enough, he pulled Eren back out of the shower and tossed him a towel. Once they were both dry, Levi went to scoop Eren up again.

"H-hey!" Eren squeaked as his feet left contact with the floor.

"Yes dear?" Levi replied casually as he carried Eren into his bedroom.

"I can walk…" Eren replied petulantly.

"I know you can. I just want to carry you though" Levi replied and nuzzled his face against Eren's chest that now had a beautiful little flush on it. He pulled the blankets back on his bed and deposited Eren on top of the mattress. A moment later, Levi crawled up next to him and pulled him down. Eren smiled as Levi pulled the blanket over the top of them and snuggled up next to him.

"Shouldn't I go back to my bed?" Eren asked as Levi reached up to start scratching behind his ear.

"Later" Levi responded as he tangled his legs with Eren's. "I just want to spend time with you and talk."

"Hmm… what do you want to talk about?" Eren asked as he wrapped his arm around Levi's lower back and pushed his head further into Levi's delightfully scratching fingers.

"Anything…everything…I don't know. Tell me about your childhood or something…" Levi whispered against Eren's lips and rubbed their noses together.

Eren let out a pleased sigh and rubbed their noses together gently in return. "Sure…whatever you want Levi."

Neither minded that they spent most of the night talking and cuddling. Levi couldn't find it in him to care if anyone noted Eren's absence that night. He just couldn't find the willpower to push Eren out of his bed. He was beautiful and warm. His laugh was addicting. As addicting as his smile and twinkling eyes. The purring that escaped him was so unbelievably relaxing. Levi hadn't felt this content since…well since forever. He had never felt this content or this warm in his entire life. When Eren started falling asleep in between words, Levi finally sent him off to bed, but not before kissing him into a fuzzy little daze.

X

Over the next couple of weeks as the snow fell harder and buried them into their little castle if anyone noticed Eren's late night disappearances, no one said anything. They either didn't notice, didn't care, were polite enough not to say anything or had their own silent suspicions. Jean for one, totally thought Eren was running off to have little trysts with someone, but he just couldn't figure out who. He tried to follow Eren one night, but the stupid bugger heard him and ended up just going to the bathroom and then returning to bed. Much to Jean's disappointment.

Anyone who watched closely enough could tell exactly what was happening, but for fear of what the Captain would do kept their lips tightly sealed. No one mentioned the lingering glances that their Captain left on the adorable kitty man. Nor did they comment on Eren's little glances either. Although Eren was definitely hiding it a lot better than Levi at this point. Levi just couldn't help it. His eyes were drawn to Eren like a moth to a flame and right now that fiery man was scowling out in the courtyard kicking at the white cold wet fluff.

Levi watched from one of the windows on the second floor thinking about how he could make Eren feel better. He knew Eren was getting frustrated being cooped up all the time. Maybe once the snow let up a little bit he would take Eren out for some exercise. Of course they had kept up their training even in the winter, but they never ventured further into the surrounding wilderness. He would be sure to take Eren out far enough where the castle wasn't visible anymore. In the meantime, he would make sure to shower Eren with some extra tender loving care.

He continued to stare at his man that was brooding. Well brooding until Connie jumped on Eren's back and they landed heavily into the snow. Eren came up sputtering and glaring. He then grabbed a handful of the wicked white fluff and smooshed it into Connie's grinning face. Soon enough Sasha joined into the snow fight. Levi let out a little chuckle at the immature display happening outside. He wiped the smirk off of his face when he sensed Petra approaching him, but it was too late. She had seen the smile and heard the chuckle. She smiled softly at him and glanced out the window to see the scuffle going on outside.

"You know, you don't need to hide it from us Captain" Petra said softly.

Levi looked at her with a neutral expression. "Hide what exactly?"

"Hide that you and Eren are in a relationship. We all respect you around here and seriously it's about time that you showed some human emotions."

Levi froze when her words registered. There's no way that she knows, right? Although Petra was always observant and now Levi was kind of internally freaking out. Not that he let any of it show on his face. "Are you saying I'm not human?" Levi asked blandly and arched a brow.

Petra giggled. "Of course not Captain, but I would like to point out that you didn't deny being in a relationship…" She raised her own brow in return.

Levi shrugged and turned his attention back outside. "Maybe I am and maybe you'll be keeping your mouth shut about it."

"Of course" Petra responded fondly. "So what are you giving him for Christmas?" Levi gave her a quick glance before looking away and frowning. "You did get him a Christmas present didn't you?" After no response Petra whopped him gently on the arm. "It's in three days. Jeeze. Well you better think of something old man."

As Petra walked away, Levi continued his internal panic. Shit. He didn't even think about Christmas. He usually just huddled in his room away from everyone else until it was over. Even if it was also his birthday, Levi had just never felt the need to celebrate either of them. Now though, now there was Eren. The adorable bratty kitty would totally be the type that loved Christmas and everything that came with it. Levi had to think of something and fast.

He quickly made it back to his office and paced as stupid idea after stupid idea popped into his head. Each one he dismissed with a frown. He paused mid step when a brilliant idea crossed his mind. Now he just had to hope that the weather would permit it. That night, he snuck out of the castle by himself. He wasn't afraid of freezing to death or anything else. He was a pureblooded vampire after all. They were resilient assholes if nothing else.
