It has been a week since Eren had started living with Levi and with his coven. The brunette found that mornings and evenings with them were closely to what he'd experience with his human friends. When the brunette would wake up from his sleep, he'd be greeted with Levi and Hange bickering over very little things. Though they seem to try to keep them muted, Eren had the vague idea what these little arguments were about.

This morning…..

"Oi, Hange. If I would see your goddamn fucking room that filthy again, I'll cut your head off.", a dark voice greeted the teen's ears as he came downstairs. There was a thud like somebody whacked a stone or something followed by a laugh. Hange and Levi, without a doubt. Eren sighed as he entered the dining hall.

"Oh~! Eren! About time!", the brunette woman called as Eren came to view. Levi was on the other side of the room, his face covered with a cloth and was holding a disinfectant spray in one hand while on the other hand was another cloth. The raven looked up at him as Hange greeted his mate and his jaw gave a slight twitch as if he were about to smile.

"You're late, brat.", he drawled as he sauntered to where Eren was standing.

"Sorry..", he yawned hugely as he approached the vampire. His verdant-green eyes flickered to the clock and then looked back at Levi with questioning eyes. 'I slept in..'

"I told you so.", he sighed as he took the last step closer to him and patted his head, to which Eren made a face at. 'In relation to that… How are you feeling..?', he asked in his mind, staring deeply into Eren's eyes. The teen couldn't help but blush a bit at the intensity of the stare.

'Why does he have to stare so much… I mean.. I know he can't control it but it makes me feel so uncomfortable.. Lucky for him he's attractive..', Eren thought as Levi reached out to place a hand on his cheek. Then for some reason, he froze and the strangest expression crossed his face. There was a beat of silence and then….

"Ohmygod, Levi!", Hange cried as she doubled up in laughter, holding at the table as her body shook. The brunette looked up from his intense eye session with Levi and saw the woman, still hysterical with laughter.

"What did I miss?", Eren tilts his head in confusion.

"Oh Eren~ Eren~", the woman moved closer to Eren and wrap an arm around him, causing for the teen to stiffen a bit. That takes a long time getting used to. "You should've heard it…~", she tutted in reproach as she looked at me then at Levi who looked like he was still trying to gather his thoughts.

"Heard what?", he asked again. The lady vampire was all ready to answer that but unfortunately for her, Levi snarled at her and flipped her a finger.

"Don't you fucking dare, Hange. One word or you'll regret it.", he said as he stalked closer to Eren. For a moment, he flinched, afraid that Levi might do something harsh to him but..

'Eren..', he said to him telepathically as he passed by him and let their fingers intertwine for a half second before continuing down the hall. Eren looked around as he watched the head vampire's back disappear down the dark. Suddenly, for a cold night, Eren felt his cheeks like it was on fire.

"Levi."

"Hn..? What is it?", the raven said, merely looking up from where he was reading. It was the middle of the night as Eren lounged on the bed, trying to keep his eyes open as Levi sat on a chair, poring with a bored expression over a book. They'd known each other for almost three weeks now and yet, Eren knew nothing of Levi. While the vamp knew almost everything about him, through telepathy of course. When he'd bring this up to their full attention, Levi just shrugged and told him 'It's nothing important.' But he can tell.

Eren can tell that he was trying to shut him out from his mind.

"Levi…", he started but the raven gave a huge and irritated huff, shutting the book with an audible thump before setting it down on the table.

"Eren. How many times do we have to talk about this? No.", he looked at him with those heavy-lidded eyes at the brunette on the bed. Eren looked at him for a long and quiet moment before making a face at him. Levi turned away from him to look out of the wndow and muse over something. All Eren can catch was a confusing, yet neat mess of thoughts from Levi. He groaned and crossed his arms.

'Stubborn.'

'This is unfair.'

'Muscle Head.', were Eren's last words before Levi cluck his tongue in annoyance and stood up a little noisily from his chair. The teen flinched as the other advanced him with an expressionless look, cowering a bit as Levi's face was barely an inch close to his. Automatically, Eren felt his heart thump frantically, which made Levi smirk a bit.

'Did… you really want to know what my past is, Eren..?', his eyes intense as he placed a hand on his chin softly.

'Y-yes..', he thought back as he locked his own with his mate's.

It seemed like Levi was looking for something on his face after those words before climbing on the bed, letting his thin lips ghost on Eren's warm ones. The younger's heart jumped and stopped altogether before restarting again as he shakily pressed his trembling lips back on Levi. The older chuckled very quietly before pulling away and look at Eren, who felt like he was going to melt right then and there.

"I'll tell you. But not now..", he murmured to his mate before placing a kiss on his overheated forehead. The vampire pulled away to stroke Eren's hair gently and sigh. "There'll be a lunar eclipse within a few months from now. By then, I'll tell you. It's up to you if you'd stay until then or leave."

Levi went back to his chair and sat back, going back to whatever he was reading when Eren finally realized what he meant by those words.

He was given a choice.

To leave. Or stay with Levi for eternity.

To stay human or become a vampire., Eren thought as he continued to stare at Levi. He clenched at the blankets, his thoughts in a swirl. And he was pretty sure that Levi can hear them, loud as his internal argument is.

His heart continued to thump with frantic beats.

Levi..

The teen lent closer, bearing down as he sucked in a deep breath, ready to blurt out his answer.

"L-levi… I want to—!", he started at the same time that Levi looked around to look at him with mild confusion.

"My, my~ What a pleasant scene we have here.", a voice suddenly said out of nowhere. Eren and Levi turned their heads at the same time to the window and was met with a smirking sight.

"You..", Levi growled under his breath as he looked at the figure lethally. Eren removed his eyes from the man on the window and turned them on Levi, feeling panic on his face.

In one fluid second, Levi darted sideways and took in a defensive stance in front of Eren, glaring death daggers on the man, whose smirk widened. Eren, on the other hand, can't see who was their unexpected and unwelcome guest so he tried peeking around but Levi restrained him.

"Levi.. W-who—?", Eren whimpered.

"Shhh..", he shushed him gently, pushing him backwards with his curved body.

The man leapt lightly into the room and sat on the window sill, watching them with an amused look on his face.

"Long time no see.. Eren.", he said as Eren finally saw the face of the man. He stiffened and gritted his teeth. He'd know that face anywhere and he hated it.

"Jean.."
