Chapter 22

Talking to Eren

The week passed to fast for Reiner and Evelyn. They spent the week at the Beach House and enjoyed each other's Company. Spent most of the first night in bed together but took advantage of the warm weather on the beach. They didn't want to come back when their time was up.

Reiner was finishing getting ready for a meeting and Evelyn was in the kitchen getting coffee ready. Their cat, Cagney, rubbed around her legs. She definitely took a liking to Reiner after he came home. Evelyn gasped as strong arms wrap around her.

"Sorry we had to cut it short." Reiner said, kissing her check.

"You still got stuff to do as a Warrior. Hopefully this is the last conflict." Evelyn said, turning and wrapping her arms around Reiner's neck.

"For now. There's talks of going to Paradis to get the Founder after this." Reiner said. Evelyn sighed. She knew that would be coming eventually.

"Yeah. And they will still use me as a tool." Evelyn said, pulling away. Reiner pulled her back.

"Your married to me. Your protected more. You might be used, but you'll be welcomed to stay till I transfer. Magath has agreed if and when I transfer my Titan. You will be sent back home, but I want you to take my mother with you." Reiner said. Evelyn pulled his head down to hers.

"Thank you." Evelyn said. Reiner kissed her hard.

"I love you." Reiner said.

"I love you too." Evelyn said. Reiner headed out as he grabbed the mug of coffee. Evelyn sighed. Eren was supposed to be coming any time now and she wasn't looking forward to that talk. He told her some stuff and it didn't surprise Evelyn that Zeke was working behind Marley's back, but to betray his friends like that was unthinkable.

'I really do need to find a way to end this without the Rumbling happen and Zeke's plan. This is gonna give me a massive headache.' Evelyn thought as she grabbed her head.

A knock on the door interrupts her thoughts. Evelyn heads to the door and opens it to see Eren standing in the door. Eren steps in as she moves out of the way. Evelyn closed the door behind her and locked it. Reiner wouldn't be home till lunchtime so there was plenty of time to talk.

They sat at the kitchen table in silence. Evelyn refused to look at her brother as she held the mug.

"I see you had a good life living here." Eren said.

"It was hard at first. I still have people that look down on me, but I got friends here." Evelyn said. Eren nodded. Evelyn took a sip of her food. "What are your plans, Eren?"

"I want revenge on what they did to our home and our mom's death." Eren said.

"Eren. We didn't know about this world till 3 years ago." Evelyn said.

"Eve. You lived here to long. Our island is now out of the dark ages. We have a train now. Everyone misses you. Sasha misses you the most." Eren said. Evelyn looked away. "I don't like my brother's idea of sterilizing us Eldians."

"And you think I support your idea of starting the Rumbling. Eren. There has to be another way." Evelyn said. The two stared each other down. "You will kill millions and I don't like that idea."

"You're not bringing the traitor home with us when we go back. You think they will take him willingly after what he did?" Eren said.

"I don't know yet. I thought I had time to figure things out." Evelyn said.

"And you think they will let you live after Reiner transfers his powers? They are nothing but liars." Eren said.

"I don't need to sit and listen to you. They promised they would and Magath has been good to me." Evelyn said as she stood up. Eren stood. "I'm still gonna keep my promise and not tell them you're here, but you won't be able to keep it hidden for long. They do find stuff out. Now please leave." Evelyn walked him to the door. Eren stopped before he stepped out.

"Its whatever you decide, but I don't plan to leave Marley anytime soon, but when I do. You'll be coming home with. Remember that." Eren said. He stepped out, putting a hat on. Evelyn shut the door. She put her face in her hands. She was running out of time and she needed to figure things out and fast.

AN: Well that conversation didn't go to well. We are almost in Season 4 of Attack on Titan. I got plans. Until next time.
