Now she was ready for Eren. He'd be here soon. The security the master had in place would knock on her door and tell her he would come through. Ironically the security was there for her protection more than to keep her there. After all where could she go? She'd lost count of how many times they'd stopped someone who got too violent and they did their job well. After all given how much the master had paid for her they couldn't risk her dying. Much as she'd asked for it many times. Of course this meant they watched her as she entertained he clients but that didn't bother her really. While she didn't consider them to be friends she was willing to put her trust in them for that. They probably wouldn't react well to her plan .They would hurt her for it but they could only do so much. The standard rule is no visible bruises and she knew it. The only time the rule was removed was during a badly advised attempt at escape when she was much younger. Mikasa thought on this for a moment. Even if they kill me it would be worth it for that one moment of victory she thought to herself.
She heard a knock at the door. Standing before her was Baron Byrne. A tall man he had jet black hair white skin an carried himself so that everyone knew he was a man of aggression. A man of wealth but still not the top echelons Aki figured that if he hadn't been trying to use this side business using her to raise his connections she'd probably be dead already after all it already happened to some of the other girls like Catherine, Roseline and Sarah all of whom hadn't been worth the investment and had them killed. She was only alive because her ethnicity mad her high value and she'd learnt her role well.
"I sure you're aware of who Eren Yeager is, but what I may not have made clear if you screw this up. All rules are off. This guy has connections to the queen herself. Make it memorable. "
She understood exactly what he meant and she certainly intended to do just that. But not in the way he intended.
"Here is something as a gift for our distinguished guest" He handed her a bottle of wine and two glasses. She looked at the labelled bottle this was from Shiganshina District. Clearly he really wanted to make a good impression
"He'll be here in 5 minutes" and he left
She waited until he had left before breathing a sigh of relief, the next knock was her next and possibly final lover.
Then after what seemed like an eternity she heard that fateful knock. She opened the door.
"You must be Lt Yeager. A pleasure to meet you" saying the words tasted beautifully bitter to her "I'm Aki .Would you care for some wine?"
"Oh please Aki call me Eren" A smug smile came upon his face. She should have expected as much. He was one of those who felt if he showed some charm it wouldn't seem so sordid.
She handed him a glass
She looked the boy up. She did still the him but she couldn't help but consider him to be attractive. She figured he'd look like the good doctor who she'd always though look weird. Guess his mother must have been the attractive one she thought to herself.
"So what do you know of me?" he asked she could see in his eyes it was almost like he was daring her.
Aki knew this game. Men of power often like a girl to pander to their ego but like that girl to speak of them almost like a myth "only what I'm told"
"And what have you been told?" he replied giving nothing away. She knew she'd have to push further
"You're the hero who saved humanity." Monster would be the better word she thought but never let on
"Go on"He was enjoying this
"They say you can turn into a titan."
"Do you believe them?"
"Yes" she'd heard the story from so many men she knew it had to be true
Eren was amused by this "and you're still not afraid of me?"
She gave a coy smile "no"
"Shall we start with a kiss?"
Aki was used to inexperienced guys asking but it almost seemed like he was toying with her. She knew her part regardless "certainly" they both put down the glasses
"Interesting" Both looked behind the wall there was clearly some movement. While Aki was used to knowing they were watching they were normally very quiet
Then there was a loud smash from the room She knew exactly what it was
"Judging from the noise I assume someone was looking in from the other room"
"My protection" she replied. Normally they were so quiet but on this occasion they screwed up and had drawn attention to themselves. Why she didn't know but she knew this part was crucial if her plan was to succeed
"They were clearly afraid of me." He smirked "That was a mistake"
She wondered why he was using past tense but she didn't have the time to think about it she needed to get down to business, otherwise her plan would never work "we don't need to be afraid of a brave hero."
"Actually I'm no hero," and then kissed her again.
"If that's true why shouldn't they fear you? Surely that would make you dangerous" Checkmate she thought Aki kissed him again and led him back onto her bed, a few more passionate kisses. She pulled him back on top of her and expected him to start undressing and to start undressing her.
Instead he decided to speak.
"It's because of what I am is why they shouldn't be afraid of me and why it was such a fatal error Mikasa"
In that moment the girl felt like the world had just stopped, she had to be sure she heard what he had said correctly but she knew she saw it in his eyes "what did you just call me?" He then moved off of her.
"Mikasa. Isn't that your real name?" with the way he said it implying he knew full well exactly who she was not just a name but everything.
This scared the Asian girl "wh...what are you?"
Eren knocked back the last of the wine in his glass "I'm just the diversion Miss Ackerman, just the diversion"
