A Knight's Hymm

Knight! Levi Ackerman x Princess! reader

Levi being the first commoner captain, is quite sceptical of royalty. especially, you.

A/n: This a draft I couldn't bring myself to finish but I put my whole budussy into it so imma js post it.

You always smiled in a way that dulled the gold and jewels around you, A smile that covered your face and painted a pretty picture.

He couldn't stand it, No matter how much his head warned him of its falsehood, his heart couldn't help but flutter.

"Greedy wealthy pigs." 

He would mutter under his breath, even as they drafted him into the Royal Army, As captain no less. As he stood at attention at the mention of the king, his brows still furrowed in disgust.

They really should have known better than to put a man from the slums in such a high position.

Everyone else did. 

Everyone, but you. 

"Captian Levi! There you are!” You smiled. 

He couldn't help but loop himself, every time you flashed him that damned grin he couldn't stop himself from comparing you to gold.

"Your majesty." He acknowledged. 

You rolled your eyes.

"Must you be such a buzz kill?" You shook your head. 

Before he could answer, soft pampered hands had grabbed his; 

Thick and rough, littered with irreversible tales of the past, mostly the thick stubs where his middle and index fingers once were. 

He doubts it was an accident when you grabbed that hand

You covered his hand in yours, A cold and small item resting in his hands.

Your fingers dragged as they left. Neither of you mentioned it. 

Levi skeptically eyed his hand. A small, but heavy broach resting in the palm of his hand. 

“A formal invitation.” Your smile reached your eyes. “As my escort of course!" 

Levi furrowed his brows, his eyes snapping up to look at you

“…" He paused, giving you an unimpressed look "Invitation? Do I have much of a choice?” He snarked, eyeing you suspiciously. 

Your eyes seemed to crinkle.

" I always give you a choice. " You pause, glancing at the broch, Seemingly chuckling to yourself. " Think it over will you?"

You bowed your head slightly before you took your leave. 

It always made his skin crawl when you did that. He would rather you treat him like all the other nobles did. 

When you treated him like he was worth something his job got far harder.  

You ran your brush through your hair after meticulous work, the fresh feeling of newly washed hair enveloping your scalp. 

Your arms were quite sore, having only recently banned your maids from your chambers. But hard work receives fruitful rewards. 

You were sure it wasn't nearly as good as trained hands, but your heart swelled with pride. 

Your hair and skin were still damp as you slipped on your bathrobe. Nevertheless, you did not have time to fuss over the small details, you were sure Captain Levi would be arriving any-

The sound of a polite but firm knock harshly interrupted your thoughts. 

"I can always count on Captain Levi to mess with my plans." you chuckled to yourself. 

You begrudgingly made your way to your door. You expected him to take longer than he did to think about your proposal. 

Your door pulled open, fresh damp hair clinging to your face 

as your eyes glided to his

" Captain Levi." you hummed. A surprised look plastered on your face. Though, you doubt you fooled Levi.

 " It's quite late for visitors. Don't you think?" 

You could hear Levi's breath stop in his throat, and as quick as you heard it his brows snapped down in a furrow. 

"Your Highness!" He hissed, neck and ears flushing.

"What? It's to be expected that I would be bathing at these hours." You shrugged, shifting your weight to the right, motioning him inside. 

"no, I don't think that would be appropriate-"

"It must have been important for you to come to my chambers at this hour, so please." You insisted.

You could see his jaw visibly clench, Your eyes briefly flickering to the vein that gathered on his neck. 

The sound of his heavy footsteps dragged against the marble floor, Willing himself to move further into your chambers. He had hoped it was his sense of duty willing him to gather more information on you, but he knew that wasn't the case. 

He reluctantly took a seat, eyeing you with a glare. His brows furrowed in an almost permanent M. 

The sound of thick splashing filled the room as you filled both cups. A small smile on your lips, your eyes entirely focused on the cup before you. 

"Your Highness, I-" 

" I know you're a part of the rebellion." You began, cutting his speech off. "That's why you are here to deny my escort request. Right?" 

Your eyes flickered to his as you asked. 

His face was pulled taunt. Not letting a slip of emotion seep through his skin. He was already glaring at you, but this one was different.

It was cold. 

Your eyes locked to his, And in a moment a knife was at your neck. A steel-stained knife threaded at your throat. You didn't even blink, your facade of a smile still permanent on your lips. 

Your eyes glanced down at the knife. 

"The knife at my neck makes me think you want to kill me." You state, looking back up at him that cold look he wore at war glazed over his eyes. 

"Quit with the Bullshit." He spits, rising in his chair. "What do you want." 

"Me?" You ask, tilting your head to the side. "You're the one who put a knife to my neck. " Your brows furrowed and jaw slacked, painting a furiously offended look on your face. 

"You-" 

"I'm kidding." You say, a smirk replacing the frown you placed on your lips. "I'll speak when there is no longer a knife at my throat." 

Silence filled the room, Your eyes locked onto each other in a glare. 

Levi let out a sharp click of his tongue, reluctantly moving back down, slipping his knife back into its hiding spot. 

You take a long sip of your now lukewarm tea, humming disapprovingly before setting it back down with a click.

"That invitation is one for my wedding." 

"what-"

" And once I'm married I'll be no more than a living doll. " You sighed, your eyes stuck to the round edge of your cup. 

" They don't want me to exercise my right as a royal, so they sold me off to a pig." You sneered. " Since they threw me away the only thing left for me to do is to sell information to the rebellion."

A Thick solemn Silence Stuck in the air, constricting around Levi's throat. He couldn't speak. 

His hand gripped tightly to your round marble table. He could feel his heart tighten to a stop.

He glanced up at you, steeling himself.

"And how am I supposed to believe that? This could easily be a trick."

You sighed, standing up from your seat. Levi watched you in silence as you reached under your thick bedding. Pulling a bland or unremarkable box from under your bed.

The sounds of the soft patter of your feet echoed through the empty room, and with a swift flush you emptied the dull box onto the table.

Covering the table were altered royal documents.

"I've been keeping Erwin and the rebellion alive by altering information" You stated, " Without me, they'd be dead."

"You-"

" Even if you don't like me, don't let that stop you from helping the people!" You reason, a sudden passion filling your words. " I had planned on doing this myself.. but."

You stopped your words, your perfectly crafted mask beginning to crumble as your throat constricted at the thought of being sold off.

Levi paused as he watched true emotion seep through your face, You seemed to shine even brighter.

" Goddamn it." He hissed, 

You didn't get the chance to speak, as he quickly grabbed you by the back of the head, leading his lips to yours. 

Rough chapped lips pushed aggressively into you, his entire body leaning across the table to reach you, as a hand keeping your head steady while he kissed you. Kissed you as if he was in battle.

Your head was moving a mile per minute, and yet, not a single thought could process through you. But for some straight reason, you couldn't seem to stop yourself from wanting more.

You pushed back against him, running your tongue past his lips and into his awaiting mouth. You could feel his gasp against you, and tremble as he reciprocated the action. 

For someone who grabbed you so passionately, he sure wasn't prepared. 

Levi pulled away from you, A red face gazing up at you as his forehead pressed against yours. 

" They'll kill you," He said, breath heavy in his words and a worried tremble in his raspy tone. 

You paused at his words, letting out a breathy chuckle. 

" It's worth it." You smiled. 

His jaw clenched

"What? No! What the hell is wrong with you?" He asked, roughly grabbing you by the shoulders.

His brows furrowed far harder than ever, and his eyes filled with a thick passion that made your heart flutter.

"I finally get the chance to have you and you want to just die?" He exclaimed

"What-"

Levi kissed you again, a scared, Emotional kiss.

This has been sitting in my drafts for over a year so I'm releasing it to the world!

Thinking about...

royalty au

—༺♔༻—༺♕༻—༺♘༻—

♚King Erwin and ♛Queen Reader have been together ruling for some time. As usual history, the king seeks affairs and luckily doesn't cause a scandal by seeking outside of the royal court. The queen stays reserved and quiet about it, not seeing a point in arguing with something that she cannot change, sometimes it hurts more to lose your status than to not have any to begin with. Until she meets the newly appointed ♞knight that Erwin seems infatuated with, Levi.

Levi and the Queen have some meetings, he's not her personal guard but he's someone Erwin trusts the most for reasons no one in the castle knows. Levi and the Queen intrigue each other. He may have low expectations for her character, as he does with anyone from high society but she was chosen as Queen for a reason.

Unfortunately, it's time for Erwin and the Queen to try for an heir again, and she (self-deprecatingly) suggests bringing Levi into the bedroom to keep Erwin’s interest through the act. However, Levi ends up giving her a lot of attention, almost showing her off to the King, and the Queen learns new things about her husband through his and Levi’s dynamic as well as a newfound appreciation to be cherished and seen as herself.

It seems there are many things about the three of them that everyone has yet to learn.

_______________________________________

Masterlist

Note: I do not mean to insinuate that Erwin is a gay man who is being turned into liking women or anything (especially during pride month) Erwin is just infatuated with Levi and I can relate. Cheating sucks but in a monarchy, there's definitely tons on the King's plate as well as the shitty culture surrounding "a man's needs" and acceptance of affairs as an outlet. Finding Levi and Levi being more appreciative of the queen is for the better of all of them once they start working together. But def angst and miscommunication probably.

Every idea and prompt I post about is something I want to read. So, if you want to take inspiration and write a fic with my prompts in mind, please tag me in it! Not so I can take credit, but because I want to support you!

[loveackermannn]

Forbidden Love between Levi x Reader just pure fluff where like she's a princess and he's her knight to protect her, no context needed just fluff 🤭.

YOUR MIND. I LOVE YOUR MIND.

knight!levi who swore on his life to protect you at all costs – even if it means giving himself up for you. yet, who also swore to never fall in love with you because there's no way that could actually happen.

knight!levi who guards your door every morning and every night, waiting for the sound of your voice to call his name. at times, he couldn't help but want to hear you call out for him just so that he could be closer to you. in his mind, he was convinced it was only out of pure duty to ensure of your safety and that it would be guaranteed by him in your direct presence. though, deep down, it was because he couldn't stand the thought of being apart from you for even a second.

knight!levi who brushes through the messy strands of your hair with your hairbrush and occasionally steals glances at your restless posture through the dusty mirror. his brows furrow, letting his fingers slip through to gently caress at your scalp.

"how long did you stay up for last night? you look like a zombie," his voice is forward and could be seen by anyone else as a bit disrespectful towards his lady, but just to you, you fondly smile at him as if acknowledging his concern.

"a little past midnight, i had some paperwork to take care of, princess duties."

"would it kill you to get a few more hours of sleep than that? i'll do your shitty paperwork for you," he firmly says, noticing your eyes slightly widening at his proposition. of course it's out of his place to say such a thing, he's nothing more than a mere knight in shining armor awaiting for danger to strike at any given moment.

knight!levi who is quick in his apologises afterwards and urges himself to leave as soon as he entered – until he felt your hand surround the flesh of his wrist, hoping that he'll stay. you want him to stay.

"i'll get more sleep, i promise. can you please help me finish getting ready?"

knight!levi who couldn't refuse you even if he so wanted to, because he could feel himself give in to you the more he stays, the more he touches you, the more he is with you. you tempt him so much without even trying. you could talk about all the stars in the universe or the sand that grains the earth, yet all he could think about is how beautiful his own universe is front of him – you.

knight!levi who accompanies you on your daily walks around the palace with nowhere else to run to, because these 4 walls are what you've known your whole life. sometimes, he finds himself dreaming of a small cabin where the two of you can easily roam free to the nearest lake or climb the tallest mountain together. together. he can see it all so well, but the position of knight and princess makes it nearly impossible. perhaps, one day or maybe in another life both of you could be granted that freedom.

knight!levi who eats breakfast, lunch and dinner with you. he makes sure that the food is cooked exactly how you like it, that your cravings and sweet tooth are satisfied because he is the only person to have ever known these small things about you. he'll wipe the crumbs from the corner of your mouth with a napkin or sometimes even with the tip of his thumb, because he knows how messy of an eater you can be.

knight!levi who can't hide his feelings for any more capacity than his heart will allow. knight!levi who loves you to the ends of the earth, that he would gather up all your desires and needs and fulfill them in any way that he could. knight!levi who cares deeply for your heart, soul and mind that he can hardly contain it anymore. knight!levi who is yours forever and has always been yours.

knight!levi who stands at your door, shifting uncomfortably between his right and left leg, thinking about stupid he must look right now to the guards who walked past him. his hand meets the wood of the door, knocking once, twice, then thrice. he's holding his breath and for some time, he wasn't breathing.

knight!levi who waited patiently for your footsteps to be audible to his ears and soon heard the creaks of the door pry slowly open. your eyes appeared to have been deprived of sleep, but you greeted him with the same enthusiasm as you always have, as if the life in your eyes were brought back to life.

knight!levi who can't seem to get the words that itched desparately at his throat and instead, ushers you inside of your room and closing the door behind him. he looks less composed than usual and you began to grow worried at his frantic expression as you sat on your bed. your immediate thought was that someone had broken into the castle or was plotting a rivalry against your kingdom, but as soon as levi got to his knees in front of you, taking your hands into his and bowing his head – almost in.. shame? you knew it had to be about something completely different.

knight!levi who was quiet in words, but coherent enough to reach you,

"i can no longer hold this in, milady. if my words are nothing but indecent to you, i would ask to resign from my position as your knight, but you must know this now, that-"

knight!levi who finally gathers the courage to look up at you with such earnest, you couldn't turn away. he finishes with the remainder of his shakened breath,

"i am in love with you. i can hardly fucking stand near you without having the urge to pull you in because i crave for your heart so badly. i lay awake most nights dreaming of what it would feel like to be beside you. i cannot concentrate because you constantly plague my mind as if you own it."

the unwelcomed silence filled every corner of your candlelit room and the tensed breathing between the two of you was all that could be heard.

as speechless as you were left, the rest of your body spoke for you. your palms met the tops of his hands, tenderly circling your thumb around his calloused skin. your lips were parted and he continued to look up at you as if you were the last thing his eyes could devour. you leaned down and slowly closed the distance between your curious faces. one of your hands reached out for his nape, grounding yourself before placing a clumsy kiss on his lips.

knight!levi who didn't pull away nor did he move from where he knelt. his eyes were slightly opened to a half-lid and his hands were still cupped by yours. he was no expert in initiating physical touch whatsoever, but he wanted to try just for you.

knight!levi who moves his hands from your lap to the sides of your face, arising from the floor but never breaking the kiss. he situates himself beside you, keeping one hand on your cheek and the other on your hip. it was passion, it was love. everything that couldn't be said in words was perfectly conveyed in an array of kisses and the molding of your body to his.

knight!levi who didn't want this to ever end, who wanted to be stuck here in a bubble of warmth with you forever. for as long as this night will allow for it, he will savor every part of you. he would worship you as if you were his temple and he wouldn't want to stop even when the morning rises.

[m-jelly]

hey jelly! this is only my second time requesting so sorry if i made any mistakes or if it’s not understandable you can ignore this!

it can be a long or short fic (whatever you prefer) but can we get a knight! levi with princess! reader who is always teasing him, calling him a ‘good boy’ and etc, which gets levi always flustered/irritated, but they end up falling in love, trope she fell first and he fell harder with levi eventually becoming king and him and the queen live happily ever after?

you can totally ignore this if you don’t like the idea!

@ladycheesington <3

Dear, sweet knight

Levi x fem!reader

Royal au, flustered Levi, knight Levi, princess reader, fluff, romance, teasing, playful, flirting.

You fell for Levi when you first met him a few months ago. You wanted him to love you with just as much passion. While you tease Levi and try to get his attention, he falls very hard for you and decides to act on his love for you.

@ladycheesington @levisbrat25 @nyxiieluna @li-anne @galactict3a @youre-ackermine @thebobaprincess @2moth-anon2 @cypidity @nbinairyn @bts-spnlvr12 @notgoodforlife @demonic-bird

Levi's cheeks burned pink as the other knights chuckled at your flirting and teasing. He stormed over to you as you smirked at him. "Listen here, you brat."

You leaned your cheek on your hand and tilted your head. "Your Highness."

He growled a little and spat the words out. "Your Highness."

You giggled. "Yes?"

"If you don't stop with this teasing I will tie you up and gag you."

You gasped in delight. "That a promise?"

Levi went bright red as he thought about you tied up. "You..."

You shifted in your seat and reached out to Levi. You played with the hilt of his sword. "Such a big thick sword you have." You looked up at him. "You're incredible at using it."

Levi gripped the back of your chair and your chin. He leaned closer to your face. The smell of leather and lavender filled your senses. "I have a talent for it. I'm happy to show you first hand."

You squeaked a bit as rude images filled your mind. It was a shock to hear Levi speak this way, you loved it. You tried to turn your head away, but he had a firm grip. So, you lowered your gaze. "Levi."

Seeing you all shy and submissive was fun to Levi. He smirked. "This is a good look on you, being all shy and flustered."

You pouted a moment. "It looks better on you."

He pulled back and hummed a laugh. "Still being able to bite back, huh?"

You looked up at him. "Yes."

He folded his arms. "Why do you tease me so much?"

You played with your dress. "Because I like you."

He felt his heart skip a beat. "Mm...I...you..."

You stood up and pulled a ribbon off your dress and tied it to Levi's sword. "Now, go fight the other knights like a good boy."

Levi blushed. "Good..." He groaned. "Every time you say that..."

You giggled before kissing his cheek. "Win for me."

"Yes, your Highness."

"Good boy."

You sat nicely for your maid as she combed your hair for you. It was late at night and she was getting you ready for bed. You turned your head when you heard Levi's deep voice. "Levi."

The maid pulled back and giggled. "Be careful on the balcony, your Highness."

You lifted up your long form-fitting night dress and ran onto your balcony. The night was slightly cold due to winter on its way. You leaned on the bannister and looked down at Levi talking to a knight in training. You removed your shawl and dropped it down.

The shawl slowly fluttered and danced in the wind. A smile spread on your lips when Levi raised his head at caught your shawl. Your heart fluttered in your chest when he brought it to his face and inhaled your scent.

He released a long sigh. "Continue patrols without me."

The knight in training bowed. "Yes, Captain."

Levi tied your shawl around his arm before turning to look up at you. "Are you demanding my attention again?"

You hummed a laugh. "Maybe."

He smiled as he took in your beauty in the moonlight. "Very well, your Highness. You have my attention." He walked towards the wall. "I will be with you soon."

You leaned your cheek on your hand and hummed a little song as Levi climbed up. "I'm impressed, Levi." You gasped as Levi's face appeared right in front of yours. Your heart fluttered. "Le-Levi."

He hummed. "I was right."

You pulled back a bit. "Right?"

He climbed over and stood in front of you. "Yes. You are enchanting and beautiful."

You turned and tried to get away. "I should rest."

Levi wrapped an arm around your waist. He spoke against your ear. "Where are you going? You wanted my attention."

You gripped his arm and hummed. "Levi."

"I have to ask. are your flirtatious ways with me..." He turned you in his arms. "Do you mean it, or am I just a fun toy?"

You gazed deep into his eyes to see he was pleading with you. There was a mixture of hope, pain and love. You gripped his armour. "Levi. I fell in love with you at first sight. All this teasing has been my terrible attempt to flirt. I am sorry if it made you uncomfortable. I will stop."

"I don't want you to stop." He crashed his lip against yours and kissed you with all the love in his heart. "Please continue. I adore you with everything in my heart. I've fallen so deeply in love with you. You are my life, my everything."

You gripped his armour and pulled him with you into your bedroom. "Stay with me."

He lifted you up. "I would love nothing more."

You smiled with pride as the last of the laws that you worked so hard on with Levi was passed. You bowed your head. "Thank you all. Meeting adjourned. I hope you enjoy our upcoming autumn festival." You slipped out of your chair and walked through the hall and outside. "Where's my husband?"

Your knight chuckled. "He is shopping for you. He said something about finding the right gift."

You released a long sigh. "Knowing him he'll get a carriage full of gifts." You giggled at the thought of Levi getting all excited about things for you. He was such a tough and hard man, but he was so soft when it came to you. "I want to see him..."

"I'll take you by carriage to him."

"Thank you." You took his hand and climbed inside. You gripped your dress as you travelled into the city. You longed for your husband. You smiled when you saw him in his royal clothes inside a jewellery shop. "Levi." You hurried out of the carriage and squealed in delight. "Leviiii!"

Levi turned in his royal robes and looked like the perfect King. He smiled brightly at seeing you. He called your name and hurried over to you. "My love!"

You jumped into his arms and held him tightly. "I missed you."

He showered your face in kisses. "I missed you too. I love you so much. I love you more than anything." He sighed. "You are so beautiful."

You giggled. "You've said that already today."

"I need to say it more." He covered your face in kisses. "How was the meeting?"

"Everything was passed, my wonderful and smart man. Thank you for helping me."

He squeezed you tightly. "It was all you. It's always a pleasure to work with you." He gasped and gripped your waist. "Does this mean you're done for the day? Are you all mine?"

You giggled. "Yes. I am all yours."

Levi lifted you up and ran with you to the carriage. "Yes!" He bundled you and himself into the carriage. He held you close and covered your face in kisses. "I love you."

You hummed a laugh. "I love you too."

Got to kiss your knight goodnight

CALLING ALL FANS🚨🚨🚨

I paid for a slot from a commission a while ago and decided I wanted to do something cool and creative with it since it will be a long time before I can make commissions again after talking to the incredible salibadati she gave me the go ahead to do a poll commission so the details of the art will be based on the polls results like what clothing background and more if you want to be apart of this all you need to do is vote 🗳️

Lets make a fallout Levi Ackerman for the art I know we did a vote before but we got tied so let’s go for the tie breaker, and I also know the pics don’t do the game or series justice but it’s the best AI will give me. once the tie is broken more polls will be released deciding the details of the fan art if you have questions just ask away.

[postwarlevi]

Okay heeeere's part of the main outline (without major spoilers) for another long fic I wanna do! Will features many characters we know and love. Not fully fledged out but I'm not worried about it! (Also why are all of them historical or royal?! LOL)

Warning: Implied age gap of up to 10 years between main characters, but everyone is of age.

Reader is a princess, unhappy with her situation of doing what is expected of her. She wants to be involved in court decisions and feel more useful other than being married off one day. Her brother is the crowned prince who has all the qualities to be a good king one day but still acts quite childish at times. Reader is loved by the people because she is kind and since she isn't generally allowed in the throne room for decisions she makes herself available to the people of the kingdom and helps the nurses and the kitchen staff and goes into the village (usually attended by some sort of staff).

The princess has ladies in waiting who she considers her friends who love her and she loves them back, and some male childhood friends who are training to be knights. Another friend has been chosen by the king to assist in court instead of on the battlefield, and other girls about her age have been chosen to be the queens future ladies in waiting due to their families status and their mothers roles before them.

The knights are made up of different ranks, and here's where we meet Levi, a high ranking knight that has been trained to be with the royal family for years and his duty is mainly to the king. A family member of his died years ago protecting the king during an invasion and Levi made a vow to him and the royal family to continue protecting them in his place.

Reader likes days to herself and sends her ladies in waiting to go have free days so she can wander inside the safety of the kingdom by herself. She is never alone however, and soon finds knight Levi has been watching her, and learns he's been assigned to her. She doesn't know much about him but knows of him as he's seen often with her father. They bicker at first due to her being headstrong but get to talking.

There's a good possibility of another invasion on the kingdom one day, which she is very aware of. While the trainee knights are with the elder knights, Levi will be watching the princess. She tells him she wants more out of life and wants to be apart of court decisions and he admires her resolve and love for her people, and agrees to help keep her informed more often, and also train her to fight to be able to protect herself.

The more time they spend together the more she starts to fall for him but he won't budge. There's other side romances happening all around them with people of different stations (ladies in waiting and kitchen boys, etc) and she promises to try to get a code passed to be able to let people love who they want.

In the time that passes Levi falls for the princess as well but won't show it. It becomes clear one day when they have a conversation of him becoming a higher ranking knight, and him stating he would turn it down if it meant not being with her.

Stolen Hearts

diluc x reader

You're a well known thief in Mondstadt that just so happened to catch the attention of a certain tavern owner. reader is gender neutral

Footsteps thundered through the streets of Mondstadt as multiple Knights of Favonius chased you through the streets. This was a weekly occurrence; you steal because it’s the only way you can make a damn living in this so-called “City of Freedom”. Towards the end of the chase, you would lose them by charging through the backdoor of Angel’s Share, where the tavern’s owner, Diluc Ragnvindr, would greet you. 

“Close one there little thief,” He extended his hand out to help you onto your feet. You grabbed his hand, allowing him to hoist you up. “What did you steal this time?”

You reached in your pocket, showing him the little purse filled with Mora. It belonged to one of the Knights, which seemed to make Diluc laugh; more like huffed out air, but you took that as a laugh. 

“You really love creating enemies here in Mondstadt, don’t you?”

You shrugged, adjusting the mask that covered your mouth and nose. The only feature of yours that stuck out was your eyes. It was safer to stay silent, and hide all parts of you that don’t matter to getting your job done.

“Well, I’m assuming you will be leaving soon?” Diluc crossed his arms, leaning back against the door. You nodded, glancing at the door behind him. “How unfortunate. You are my favorite form of entertainment while I work.”

You smiled, hoping he could catch it. He reached out, squeezing your shoulder gently before stepping aside so you could leave, “Be careful. Don’t get caught just yet.”

You gave him a thumbs up and zipped out the door and down the street. You never understood Diluc’s kindness, considering he was a businessman and associating himself with a thief could eventually end in his downfall, yet he always helped you, and you always went to him for help.

As you arrived at your hideout, you pulled your mask down and your hood off, letting your face and head breathe. You ran a hand through your hair, tugging the twisted knots out with your fingers. You stepped inside and tossed the bag onto your bedside table. 

The hideout was nothing special; a bed, a table, a small kitchen, and nothing more. You were more than content with the small space you’ve taken up. It's close enough to the city that traveling to and from is easy, but also far enough away that most Knights wouldn’t think to come looking for you here.

You plopped down into your bed and stared at the ceiling. Your mind was still stuck on Diluc, though when you weren’t busy scheming you usually found yourself thinking of the man. The way he treated you was unlike anything you were used to, and it was refreshing to know you had an ally, even if it was dangerous for him to be your ally.

You close your eyes and let out a soft sigh. You had to be up bright and early tomorrow because it was time to plan out your biggest scheme yet, the one that would finally get you out of this sorry country; stealing the Holy Lyre der Himmel.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You tried not to spend too much time in Mondstadt unmasked, however you had to plan your entrance and escape routes for your plan. The guards recognized you, but not as the thief, as a traveler who spent most of their time away from the city.

You entered the city and began walking the walls. You made a few stops so as to not look suspicious; the blacksmith had made you a new custom knife, which was one you planned to use once you left for Liyue, the Good Hunter for brunch, and the souvenir shop to purchase a few items you wouldn’t be able to pick up in Liyue.

Once you finished your “shopping”, you approached the Cathedral and gave it a good once over. You scanned the windows and doors to try and find any signs of weakness. Eventually you settled on a spot on the roof where the ceiling seemed particularly thin. You may not have had a Vision, but you had incredible observational skills. It’s what has kept you alive this long.

By late evening, your route had been secured and planned out. You began to leave Mondstadt, but unfortunately bumped into someone as you reached the gate.

“My apologies,” You said softly, not allowing your voice to be much louder than a whisper.

“No need to apologize. I wasn’t paying attention.”

Your eyes widened, glancing up to meet the eyes of the person you bumped into. You instantly recognized him; it was Diluc.

“Are you alright?” He asked, that usual softness in his voice slipping through as he spoke to you.

“Yes, I’m okay,” You needed to get out of here before he recognized you.

“I’m glad to hear.” Your eyes locked and for an instant you felt as though the world around you faded into nothing. This was his first time seeing you without the mask, yet he had not a clue who you truly were. “You look… familiar,” He said and his words knocked you from the trance he had you trapped in.

“I-I highly doubt it,” You rubbed the back of your neck awkwardly.

“I feel like I recognize you though,” Diluc kept going, and the more he talked the more nervous you became. 

Before you could get another word in, someone approached you from behind. “Diluc, don’t you have a bar to be running?”

“That’s funny coming from a Knight of Favonius. Aren’t you notorious for not doing your job?”

The Knight stood beside you, and you recognized him as Captain Kaeya. You were now stuck in a very uncomfortable and unfortunate situation. Kaeya, the man who wanted you brought to justice, and Diluc, the man who helped you avoid said justice, were now surrounding you and you felt naked. They could see your face, your hair, every feature that defines you as a person without a mask.

“I’m just talking to a regular,” Diluc sighed. “I didn’t realize a bartender couldn’t converse with his customers outside of work.”

“I’m sure that’s what you’re doing. You know, you’ll never pick someone up by being a weirdo.” Was Kaeya teasing Diluc?

“That is not what was going on,” Diluc stepped away from you. “I’m sure I’ll see you later?” He glanced down at you. Hesitantly, you nodded. Shit. “Wonderful, I’ll have your usual ready for when you arrive,” Then Diluc walked away, leaving you behind with Kaeya.

“That man,” Kaeya crossed his arms, taking an opportunity to look at you. Immediately, you avoided making any eye contact. Diluc was fine, he wanted to help you, but Kaeya was an enemy. He could not see your face. “I hope he didn’t bother you too much, he’s pretty weird.”

“I’m alright,” Your words were quick.

“Well, I’m glad,” Kaeya patted your shoulder. “Safe travels outside the city.” Then Kaeye was gone, leaving you entirely alone.

You quickly left the city and went back to your hideout. Whatever happened today was not good in the slightest, and you were now incredibly worried about your next excursion in the city. You never cared if the lesser Knights knew your face, but Kaeya was a dangerous man, and without a Vision you were virtually useless against him.

You threw your stuff down and sat on your bed. You weren’t sure what to do, but you realized it was probably best to get this done tonight and leave before you attracted any more attention. 

It took you only a few hours to suit up and throw together the rest of your plan, and by midnight you were ready to go. You strapped a sword at your side. If it was going to get violent at all, tonight would be the night. 

You opened the door to your house, stretched out your arms, and stared into the distance at the City of Mondstadt. This was the last time you’d ever see it, and then you realized the sad truth; you’d never see Diluc again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Getting into the Cathedral was shockingly simple. The guards didn’t seem to pay much attention to you as you slipped in at the exact spot in the roof you noticed earlier. There were no guards inside either, which put you more on edge than if there had been any at all.

The lyre sat neatly in the middle of the room, you grabbed it off the pedestal and waited for something to happen. Nothing.

Even with how suspicious you were, you made a break for it out the way you came. That’s when you were faced with hordes of guards. You cursed quietly to yourself and jumped down the roof. You felt the bones in your feet strain as you made contact with the ground, but you had no time to stop. It was a damn trap, you should have fucking known.

Your first instinct was to run to Angel’s Share, but you couldn’t drag Diluc into this, not when so many guards were chasing you, not when you could feel the presence of a much stronger opponent approaching.

Kaeya made his appearance right by the walls that surrounded the city. He used his Cryo Vision to hit you with a wave of freezing air. It made your skin burn, but you pressed on. The Knight followed close behind you, and as you began climbing the wall to get away, another familiar Vision holder appeared behind you; Amber, a Pyro user with advanced archery skills.

The Outrider drew her bow and as you were about to reach the top, a searing hot pain shot through your right arm. She had hit you with an arrow, and fire was creeping on your skin. 

The pain was unimaginable, but if you stopped now, you would surely have been killed. You jumped off the top of the wall and felt your already sore feet almost crumble underneath the weight of the fall. With nowhere else to run, you dove into the water and swam to the other side. You could hear the screams and calls from the city as you got further and further away.

You reached the shore, pushing yourself out of the water, and went straight back to running. The pain in your body was starting to weigh on you; the ice burns, the arrow that was still deep within your forearm, and the bones that were shattered in not only your feet, but your legs as well. You hadn’t noticed it because of the adrenaline coursing through your body, but now it was fading and your senses were coming back to you.

After a while of running, your body finally gave out. You collapsed to the ground and felt yourself roll down a hill. When you hit the ground, your head smashed into what could have been a rock or a tree, but what it was didn’t matter because within an instant you were unconscious.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you awoke, you could barely move. Your body hurt all over, and your head killed. You stared at the ceiling above you and it was entirely unfamiliar. You inhaled sharply, a pain shooting through your lungs. 

You then realized your mask and hood were missing. Actually, most of your usual clothes were missing and had been replaced with something looser and much more casual.

Footsteps approached from somewhere outside the mysterious room, then a door opened. “I’m glad to see you’re still alive, little thief. I knew I recognized you yesterday.”

Diluc.

“You gave me quite the scare,” He moved into your view, staring down at you. “What the hell were you doing?”

You weren’t sure what to say, or even how to talk to him now that he knew your identity, “My usual.”

“Ahh so you do speak,” He reached his hand down to gently brush your hair away from your face. “Clearly it wasn’t your usual because the entire city is on lockdown, and you look like you were crushed by a Mitachurll.”

You flushed at his gentle touch, “I broke into the Cathedral and stole the Lyre.” The Lyre you had lost on your way out, ultimately making this entirely pointless.

“Jeez little thief,” Diluc sighed, scratching the top of his head. “You really are something else, aren’t you?”

“I feel like an idiot,” You admitted. “I did all this just to lose the Lyre and destroy my body in the process.”

“Why were you stealing anyway? There had to have been some other way to live.”

“Because I’ve always hated Mondstadt, the city, the country, the people. I’ve been stuck here alone my whole life, and I’ve wanted nothing more than to leave, but it was so hard. I don’t have a Vision, I don’t have money, and my combat skills are mediocre at best. I couldn’t just leave until I had the means to, so I stole. I took money, weapons, whatever I could. Then you came into the picture.”

“What about me?”

“You helped me, even while knowing I was a thief. And even now after I’ve committed the worst crime I’ve ever done, you’re helping me. Part of me didn’t want to leave because I knew you were here, and I knew you would always protect me,” Your face turned red.

Diluc gave you a small smile, “You wanted to stay because of me?”

You nodded, “But I was so far gone into this thievery that I felt if I stopped, you wouldn’t care the same way if you knew me.”

“Oh little thief, I would never stop caring about you,” He leaned closer to you. “I would have cared for you regardless of who you were behind that mask of yours.”

“Do you mean it?”

Diluc nodded, resting his hand on yours, “Of course.”

You smiled, feeling your heart begin to hammer in your chest, “I’m glad to know you, Diluc. I hope to let you know the real me.”

“And I cannot wait to get to know the little thief who stole my heart."

"Disgraceful Love" (Part - 1)

"The Etruscan Kingdom was a beautiful place situated in the lap of nature. It was a serene place ruled by King Magnus and his wife Queen Edith. Magnus was a great warrior, who had fought many wars and won every single one until the war against the Land of Zarath. It is believed that the war was so dreadful that Magnus couldn't see the bloodshed and decided to enter a peace treaty with the Prince of Zarath by Betrothing his daughter Princess Liora." I closed the book and glanced at the mirror in front of me, then at my two little maids.

"How terrible it must be for Princess Liora," remarked Sancha as she gently combed my hair. She seemed to feel deeply for the princess.

"Well, I heard that the prince of Zarath was madly in love with Princess Liora. He attacked Etruscan. He could've asked for her hand! Why such bloodshed?" Layla said, adorning my hair with flowers.

"Because Magnus had arranged Liora's wedding to someone she didn't like, Liora loved Levi, but she was forcefully married to a King's bastard," I said, trying to control my emotions. It's hard for me to stay quiet when people start making theories.

They looked at me in a concerned manner but quickly returned to their work.

I don't want people to dismiss Liora and Levi's love. It was pure, unrequited, but genuine. Even after their death, people still talk about it. It's been years since that happened.

"How about I tell you the exact story of their love? We still have time before the ball," I suggested with a smile. They nodded enthusiastically.

Let me tell you the tale of a Love as deep as ocean's abyss's as high as the stars in night sky and as pure as the first rain.

"Disgraceful Love"

It was during one of those days that Liora would slip away from the palace, skipping her lessons to ride on her beloved horse, whom she affectionately named Made.

Riding a horse and feeling the breeze while surrounded by greenery always seemed to calm her mind.

The grand halls of the palace would get filled with the sounds of hurried footsteps and frantic whispers.

The princess had slipped away once more, leaving a trail of chaos in her wake. The guards, usually stoic and composed, now stood in a line, heads bowed as the captain berated them for their failure. “How could you let this happen again?” he thundered, his voice reverberating off the marble walls. “She slipped right under your noses!”

In the servants’ quarters, the maids exchanged anxious glances, their hands trembling as they went about their tasks. They knew the king’s wrath would not be limited to the guards alone. The head maid, Aura , a stern woman with a heart of gold, tried to calm them, but her own worry was evident in the tightness of her lips.

The king himself paced the throne room, his face a mask of fury. “This is the second time this month!” he roared, slamming his fist onto the armrest of his throne. “She must be found immediately!” His advisors stood at a respectful distance, nodding in agreement but offering no solutions.

Meanwhile, in the stables, the princess’s knight, Levi, prepared his horse, his frustration palpable. He had been through this chase before and knew it would not be easy. “Stupid woman” he muttered under his breath, tightening the saddle, "She did it on purpose” He mounted his horse, A sigh escaped his lips, his signature cape hanging his shoulder as he went after her.

"Oi, stop at once!" Levi shouted as he got closer and closer to her horse. Liora looked back, grinning as she spotted Levi sprinting behind her. Instead of stopping, she increased her pace, making her way towards the river.

The river was her escape, a place where she could be herself. A place where her status didn’t matter, and a place that welcomed her as its own.

Liora looked back once as again to check how close Levi was getting, but to her surprise he was not following her. Nobody was chasing her.

she thought of stopping for a moment but she destination was too close to stop.

"He better not show up in front of me," she said as she rode towards the river. And as she predicted, Levi suddenly showed up surprising both Liora and Made.

"Get off the horse," he commanded as he dismounted his own horse. When Levi commands, you ought to listen, so she did. He was glaring at her for her recklessness.

"You are getting fast, Captain" she grinned walking towards him. It is surely scary as hell to walk casually after committing a mistake in front of Levi.

"Tsk, This is the second time"

"I know, I'm sorry." she tried to control her smile, trying to look guilty : a Pathetic attempt.

"You don't look sorry"

"How about a "It's okay, Your Highness" ?" she walked around him, trying to ease the tension.

"It appears that you're interested in adding an extra two hours of combat training."

"NO please anything but that. I'm sorrryyyyyy okay? but shouldn't you be more polite towards me? I'm the princess!"

"I don't care, You are being anything but a princess. Now get your ass moving, you have created a mess in the palace. I had to leave my work to find you."

"Aww what work are you talking about? cleaning..hah"

"I get one day off and you ruin it. You did on purpose, didn't you?"

"Mmmm ~ maybe ?"she giggled, climbing her horse.

He sighed, then mounted his horse. Despite his fatigue, his gaze softened as he looked at her.

Historia is my Queen, every word is law. I need her to be the protagonist of an old Disney animation movie.

Imagine this: Levi is the royal knight because he is an Ackerman, so Mikasa is a close friend of Historia. Because the two of them live in the Palace.
