I was back to where I started. My head rested on the pillow of my bed in my father's house. He caged me. Locked the door behind me. Took all my blades and didn't gave me a way out. And he didn't visit me at all. Not in the night, not at daytime. "Bastard" I cursed and turned around. Fenris still kept missing. He wasn't found yet. Anush didn't search for him. I was sure. I was worried about him. Sure, Grisha was a good horse. But Fenris still was a small boy. He was all alone. Hopefully Grisha brought him back to the headquarters. If they found Fenris they would know what happened. I hoped Levi and Erwin wouldn't do something really stupid. If they tried to blow up my father's business, the whole inner circle would be in danger. The drugs my father's selling kept the people uninterested. It meant the whole peace was at stake, just because I was engaged to Erwin. Or have been… "Shura. Please stand up" Anush said. I trew on a morning robe and knocked on the door. "I'm awake" I answered him. "I'll open the door. Step aside" Anush locked the door up and came into my room. "You look beautiful" he whispered and placed his hands on my hips. "You're a terrible liar" I spat out. "And you're a terrible daughter. I came to you to tell you about that man" Anush said and sat on my bed. "Levi" I corrected. "The Lance corporal" Anush chuckled. "Yeah. Corporal Levi" I smiled. The thought of him made me happy. "He's a midget" Anush grinned. "And he's a killer" "He's a nice man who cares for his friends and colleagues" I glared at the man in front of me. "Don't worry littlw bird. My friends will visit that glorious man. And when they come back, your hero will be nothing but titan food" Anush propheted. "He'll kick your ass, asshole" I stormed into my bathroom. Anush laughed and left my room. After he closed the door behind me, I started sobbing. It was all my fault. Anush men will kill Levi. And all because of me. Because I was that stupid little girl. With no experience at all. I tried to calm myself. Levi hab the whole Survey Corps behind his back. They were the best killers of all. If one had a chance to survive, it'll be Levi and the Survey Corps. "He'll kick your ass" I growled. Then I restedvin my bed and started to read a book. It was nothing special. Just a tale about a girl who ran away and died behind the walls. I hated how my father always told me that bad girls were prey for titans. He said that if I didn't follow his orders, the titans would kill me. Eren laughed when I first told him the lies of Anush. "Titans aren't gods. They are stupid. They will eat you even if you behave. So stoo whining and fight" he said. Fight. He used to use that word a lot. It was burned into his brain. Like a mantra. And the often he said fight, the deeper I remembered it. It was my mantra now. I had to fight. I will fight. But first, I needed to play along with my father.

I spend the rest of the day reading. And then I went to beeb without dinner. No one was send up to my room to bring me food. But in the morning, Lisa woke me up. "Good morning mylady. Anush wants you to participate in todays meeting. There will be guests this afternoon. I brought you breakfast, even though he forbid me to feed you. But I don't want you to starve" she said. I ate an apple and drank the coffee she brought me. "Lisa. Can you bring me a knife or some kind of scissors tomorrow morning?" I asked. "No. You don't have to kill you" she said. I nodded. That was the problem. I wanted to escape. Even I do I had to die for it. "It's okay" I answered. Then I went to the bathroom and took a shower. It was late in the morning and no one wanted to talk to me. Lisa disappeared soon and took the rest of the breakfast with her. It was still an apple and some cookies left. But she took it with her. After I finished the shower, I put on an elegant black dress. It was cut deep and showed much skin. Just what Anush liked on me. I brushed my hair and let it flow over my shoulders. The white hair made a good contrast to the black dress. "Miss, Anush awaits you in the hall" a butler told me and opened my door. I put on black heels and slowly walked out of my room. Then the butler took my arm and showed me the way to my father. "You're very beautiful Shura. The white hair colour suits you" he complimented me. "Liar" I shushed. "No. I'm honest. Just smile today and the night won't be too bad" Anush told me and took my arm. I forced a smile and turned to the doors. The guests arrived and we greeted ever single one.

Only continue to read if you're strong enough. This contains a scene with rape.

There were men who visited me in the nights of my childhood. Anush always opened my room for them. It were nights like these. I hoped that this was no such night. "Mister Ivanovich, it's nice that you found your way here. That's my daughter, Shura Roxanna Anushka Fenriz-Kupin" my father told the man in front of us. He was fat, had small eyes and almost no hair on his head. "She's a real beauty. Like a single snowflake. I'm happy to meet her" Ivanovich said. "You can get to know her in her room later that evening" Anush whispered. The nice smile on Ivanovichs face turned into a lust full grin. "The sooner the better" he grinned. "Shura, this man is important. I need his money. Go take him to your room" Anush told me. I took Ivanovichs hand and showed him up to my room. A butler followed us. "Your father knows what his guests really want" Ivanovich snarled after I took of my dress. Then he undressed himself and forced me on my bed. "Please, be kind Mister Ivanovich" I begged. Ivanovich wasn't nice. He pinned me to the bed and stringed my hands and feet to the bedposts. He hit me, bit me and told me to scream his name. Master. I should name him my master. After that sicko was ready, he dressed himself and left the room. Then Lisa entered the room, helped me off the bed and freshed me up. After I was dressed, I joined the party of my father again.

Now you can continue to read *

"You're a good girl" my father said and hugged me. His hands rested on my hips. "Yeah? Now the titans won't come to eat me, right? I'm so sick of you and your lies" I whispered. I had enough. My father sold my body for his own business and raped me because he was sick. Anush was a mental ill tyrann. "Have you heard of that boy? He's a titan shifter. He's a monster" I heard people whisper while my father showed me to my seat. "Eren… " I whispered. The talking continued. "He should have been executed. And now they bring him to his titan friends and they'll destroy us" the man next to me whispered to his neighbour. "Eren" I said loud. "Shura. Quiet!" Anush hushed. I stood up. "His name is Eren" I shouted. Everyone went quiet and stared at me. "And he saved our lives" I continued. "He's no monster. Anush is one. You all are monsters if you talk like that. If you really want to live, then help him. The Survey Corps. Just help them" The people stared at me in disbelief. "What happened to your daughter Anush?" a man asked. "She ran away and wasn't punished enough" Anush growled. He pulled me to my seat. "Now, my servants will bring the food. Have a seat and eat" Anush tried to save the situation. The people sat down and whispered to each other. "She's right" someone said loud. "He plucked the hole. He saved us all" another one said. The people nodded in unison. "He almost killed his girlfriend. He's nothing more than a titan. And he's not on our side" Anush said. The atmosphere changed. Everyone glared at me. "She's on his side" Ivanovich said. "She's titan prey" another one said. Then Lisa and two other maids served the food and the people continued to talk about less serious issues. "So you've been engaged to Erwin?" the man next to me asked. "Have been, yes. Anush annulled the marriage after I visited Erwin" I explained. "That's sad. Erwin was a good match" he smiled. The honesty in his eyes surprised me. "It's okay, Anush is my father. I have to do what he says" I said and took a bite of my salad. "You're not allowed to have wishes?" the man asked. "You're new in the company of Anush?" I smiled and looked directly at him. "My name's Henry Ferguson. I'm the new partner of your father's business" he said and gave me his hand. I shook it. "Nice to meet you" he said and came near me. "Sunniva" he whispered. Then he dropped a paper in my hand and sat back up. "But you got to know Erwin. Tell me about him" Henry pleased. "Erwin is really nice. He's kind and very responsible. But it seems like he doesn't like kids. At least he doesn't know how to handle them" I said. "I've heard of it. He adopted a child that lost his parents in Trost" Henry said. "Yes. It was me who saved the boy. And I brought him to Erwin. Fenris is in good hands, I hope" I said and remembered that he still was missing. "Shura, would you please tell everyone what you have done?" my father asked. I stood up and tried to catch everyone's attention. "My name is Shura Roxanna Anushka Fenriz-Kupin. I'm the daughter of Anush Kupin. I ran away after my father engaged me to Erwin Smith" I said and sat back down. "Anush catched you" a man asked. "Yes" I stated. "You're terrible" a woman said. "Yes" again. "We'll have dessert soon. Please stand up and follow me outside" Anush pleased after a while. The people stopped insulting me and went outside. I waited until everyone left and followed after it. "I was worried about you" Henry greeted me. He gave me a glass of whine. "I'm not allowed to drink alcohol" I excused me. "I'll get you a water" Henry said and disappeared. "He's a good man" Anush said suddenly. He took my hand and kissed it. "He's very honest" I answered. "And his family has a lot of money. Sadly, he's already been married" Anush said. He smiled at me and turned away. "Your father is a good business man" Henry said and gave me a water. "Sure he is. He's rich even though he started poor" I said. "But he's a bad father" Henry said. We walked away from the group. "He is. But that's just how it is" I said and smiled sad. "I hope you'll get better" Henry said. Then someone shouted his name and he left me. I was all alone now. Henry knew someone of the Survey Corps. I was sure. I closed my hand around the paper hidden in my dress. I had to hide it somewhere else if I got a chance to. "Shura. Don't you want to participate in your father's party? " a woman asked me. She was a bitch and I knew her. One of the women that wanted my father's money. "Yes, Lady Ladungen" I answered and followed her back to the group. I drank another water and stood helpless around. No one wanted to talk. I guess, I scared them away when I told them how Eren wasn't a monster. "He's my best friend" I mumbled. "Sorry?" someone asked. It was Henry. "Eren. He's one of my best friends" I repeated. "You're able to have friends?" he asked. It seemed like he really was surprised. "I've lived with my grandmother and in her house for a few years. Eren, Mikasa and Armin grew really close to me. And now, I consider Eve, Erwin and Levi my friends too" I whispered. "That's a lot. You must be a nice girl. I think you're very sympathic" Henry smiled. "I hope you get free one day. You know, there's always someone who will help you. Now i have to join your father again. He's good for our business" Henry explained and left me. I told a butler that I needed some rest and went up to my room. Then I locked my bathroom door behind me and unfolded the paper.

Dear Shura.

I'm currently not able to write, but Erwin does it for me since I've injured my arm. We're planning on saving you. Since we came back to our headquarters and Fenris arrived alone, without you, we knew, Anush captured you. I shouldn't have gone with Erwin on that mission. But I needed. I had to keep Eren safe, the fate of humanity. His powers are amazing and dangerous. But another Titan shifter appeared and the mission failed. Now we're back we have to find that other titan. It waybe know more than we do. For now I hope at least you're safe and not injured.
Henry's the man you need to trust. he's our ticket in, and yours out of the district your fathers reigns. In three days, from when you received the letter, we'll come and get you. The military police will arrive, and we're with them. Henry's only purpose is, to find out all secrets about your father and tell the military about it. don't tell anyone about his true objective. No one will ever know that the information is from him. Not even the military. Just don't tell anyone. Tell Henry as much as possible. Even the darkest secrets that no one knows. I#m sure there are things even you don't know or forgot.
I love you, Shura. Please stay safe.

Yours, Levi

I wiped away the tears in my eyes. Levi was back, he was still alive but hurt. And they tried to blow up my father's business with Henry's help. All that was left to me, was to tell everything and get to know every detail. Get the information my father was hiding from me. I clenched my fist around the paper. Anush will pay for his crimes. Maybe I wasn't the one who told justice about him, but he will be punished. His dark soul will burn in hell eternally. And I will be with Levi. forever. "Shura, what are you doing in there? Are you crying? I walready told Lady Ladungen that you're very weak today and that she should keep her mouth shut" my father asked. he knocked on the door. "Open the door for me, Shura" he pleased. I flushed the paper down the toilet and opened the door. Anush greeted me and hugged me. "I will never let you go" he whispered and kissed me in the neck. He didn't lie. His words were the awful truth. Anush let his hands glide down my back and rest on my butt. Then he pressed me agains him. "Do you like Henry?" he asked. "Yes. He's kind" I answered. "Do you think he's good for our business?" he asked again. "Of course. He seems like a honest man. And he has money" I told him. He bit my ear. "Father..." I pleased. My voice was shaking in fear. I didn't want him to do this. He moaned and pressed me agains the wall. "Anush" I said. "No. Who am I?"he asked with lustfull voice. "My father" I sighed. "You know what I want to hear Shura" Anush bit my neck. I screamed in pain. "Daddy! daddy please. Stop" I shouted. "What should I do?" His hands hurt in my back. "Make it stop..." i whispered. And Anush stopped and fulfilled his cravings for me. He waited for me until I was dressed again and controlled, I any of his bite marks were visible. I had a dark bruise in my neck. "Well, everyone knows what is going on. I don't care about that mark. Come with me Shura" Anush commanded. I followed him back outside, where Henry waited. He smiled at Anush and shook his hand, the he came to me. "Are you okay?" he asked. I showed him the dark mark in my neck. "Oh..." was everything he said. I knew it looked bad. Everything about this situation should hurt me and drive me into insanity, but all I felt was tired. I was used to it and it made me tired. All I wanted was to sleep. "Shura. Don't... Stay awake" Henry shook my shoulders. I smiled at him. That man was my saviour. "Thanks" I said and stepped out of his reach. Then I fell asleep just were I stood. When my body hit the groud I was already riding side my side with Levi in the land of dreams.
