Work Text:
Eren’s life had been a mess for quite some time now. It started when his fucked up father came home one day with a woman and her son, announcing they’re going to start living there. It pretty obvious they’re his lover and son which caused a huge fight between his parents to take place.
Life at the house became a tense mess, even more since his father barely bothered to go back, staying at the hospital he worked at more often than not. So, on one side, there was Eren and his mother, on the other was Hitch and her son, Zeke.
Eren never liked them, Hitch was mean and thought she was better than anyone, always trying to piss off Eren’s mother and get Eren himself in trouble. Zeke... was proud and made sure to gloat about his intelligence, Grisha always praising him and berating Eren for not being that focused on his studies. Carla, his mother, was a hothead and worked long hours at her restaurant, more after the pair started living at the house.
So, Eren was mostly alone with Hitch and Zeke, his temper causing more troubles for him as he grew. At 16 yo, he was fed up. He got a part-time job and rented a tiny apartment to get away from everyone.
His mother, bless her, helped at first, understanding Eren’s need to get away. Only to die when Eren turned 18 in a car crash. It devastated him, more so when his father didn’t bother to arrange a proper funeral for her. Grisha even sold her restaurant in a heart beat, taking away everything Eren appreciated.
Eren hated the three with a passion after that. The brunette stopped seeing them, not talking to either in more than three years.
Now, he was on his last year at college, working his ass off studying to not lose his scholarship while barely sleeping since he had to work as well to pay for everything in his life. Never once thinking about asking Grisha for money. He’d rather dye from sheer exhaustion that ask that scumbag for help.
So, yeah, life was hard for Eren. He had a few friends, some people that cared about him, at least, more than his father did, but not enough to check on him that much.
One day, Eren was at his place, feeling exhausted after a long shift at the bar he worked on the weekends, when he heard some knocks at his door.
Groaning and cursing under his breath at whoever was bothering him in that moment, he stood up and walked towards the door. He opened it, only to stand there, shock written all over his face.
“What do you want?” Eren huffed, crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes at his half.brother, who was standing right in front of him as if it were the most natural thing.
“So mean. Can’t I just visit my little brother?” Zeke said, voice calm and unimpressed.
Eren looked at him while gritting his teeth, fighting hard to not punch the taller man, who smirked at him before pushing him aside and getting inside the house. Eren looked outraged at his behavior, slamming the door loudly before storming after Zeke who was now standing in the middle of his living room, looking around with a pensive look that made Eren tense up.
“Really, what the Hell do you want?” Eren growled, his posture defensive.
Zeke only hummed before he started moving his things around, pushing his sofa and table against the wall. Eren looked at him in a mix of confusion and angryness.
“Zeke!” Eren yelled, pissed off at him, for being ignored and at the taller’s actions.
The other man smirked once more, looking quite pleased with himself. Then he grabbed Eren by the wrist, yanking him onto a chair. The brunette yelped as he fell, only to look stunned at Zeke when he tied his hands behind his back and around the wooden chair, making it impossible for him to move and much less get up.
“What the fuck?!” Eren exclaimed, incredulous.
Zeke chuckled while he started taking things out of a bag that Eren hadn’t seen before: black candles and white chalk. Eren gasped at realizing what was going on.
“Are you kidding me?” Eren mumbled, stunned at what was happening right in front of his eyes.
“You know... I was always curious to know if demons existed or not.” Zeke started speaking while calmly settling things as he saw fit. “There’s a lot of tales and religions about it, but I wondered if there’s something... more scientific. So, I started researching.” Zeke kept going, ranting about the lack of information he found and more things Eren didn’t bother to listen to, not when the other man was drawing a fucking summoning circle on his living room floor.
“I don’t give a damn about any of it. Let me go!” the brunette yelled, Zeke huffing and looking at him with disappointment.
“Such a rude boy. You haven’t changed at all in these years.” Zeke sighed as if he were in front of a misbehaving child and not his tied up half-brother.
Eren wanted to insult him, punch him and more. However, Zeke decided to gag his mouth with a piece of cloth, saying he needed silence for the next part.
Eren fought against the rope biding him to the chair, looking at his crazy half-brother who had started enchanting some words he didn’t understand. He almost chocked with his own saliva once Zeke took out a dagger and with a deranged glint in his eyes, he sliced Eren’s cheek with it, some blood dropping and staining the floor.
Silence fell, Zeke’s eyes narrowing when nothing happened. Eren wanted to huff and yell at him, only to freeze when his eyes caught a glimpse of something moving in the shadows.
Eren blinked rapidly, his face turning paler as dark red eyes met his. Zeke was busy ranting and mumbling under his breath, writing something into a notebook. The shadow moved, getting closer to them, not that Zeke noticed.
“Maybe it need more blood... A sacrifice is always mentioned...” Zeke commented out loud, looking pensive.
Eren tensed some more when he saw the dagger getting near him once more, eyes watering a bit, only to gasp in surprise when a hand, pale and with dark, long nails, appeared out of nowhere, grabbing Zeke by the neck,
“Such a shame... hurting something so beautiful...” a gruff voice said, sounding almost bored.
Zeke’s eyes widened at the touch and sudden voice. Eren would have laughed it he didn’t felt so many emotions in that moment.
“You... are a real demon?” Zeke spluttered what Eren was wondering about, looking crazily excited even if the demon still had his hand around his neck.
The shadow chuckled before letting go of Zeke’s neck. Then he approached Eren, his hand caressing his cut cheek slowly. Eren’s emerald eyes widened as the shadow took an actual form.
A dark-haired man with eyes as red as blood stood there. His skin was pale, claws in his hands and fangs shown when he smirked. He was wearing black garments, accentuating his built body. He was also quite tall, taller than Zeke, who was babbling excitingly from behind.
The demon wasn’t paying any attention to him though, his eyes fixed with Eren’s. He felt a tear slid down his cheek, the demon’s eyes narrowing before a soft caress cleaned the tears away. Eren didn’t know if he should feel comfort from the action or be scared.
“So... what do you want?” the demon inquired, voice low and deep... entacing.
Zeke started his ranting once more, saying how much he wanted to study the existence of demons and everything related to them. Eren saw those red eyes roll at his brother’s words, as if exasperated.
“Enough. I get the gist of it.” the demon said, dismissively.
“So, you’ll do it?” Zeke asked enthusiastically.
The demon cackled, an amused twinkle in his eyes before he turned to look at Zeke, something he hadn’t done not even once since his summoning.
“I haven’t said that. You haven’t offered anything in exchange for me to even consider granting your wish.” he commented calmly, but Eren could sense something in his voice, something he couldn’t quite point out what it was.
Zeke’s eyes narrowed, musing for a while before shrugging his shoulders.
“What do you want?” he asked and Eren tensed, more than he already was.
‘Really? That’s the wort thing he could have said! Is he that fucking stupid?’ Eren though to himself before jumping in place when a voice could be heard inside his own mind.
‘Humans tend to be. At least, the ones that have the nerves to actually try to summon me.’
The voice said and he looked wide-eyed at the demon’s back.
‘Yes, brat. I’m talking to you.’
Eren could hear the amusement dripping from the demon’s rough voice, even in his mind.
‘Why?’
Eren asked, confused on why the demon even bothered to address him that way. He heard another chuckle, but no answer came this time. Eren may or may have cursed the demon in his mind for that.
“Interesting... and if I wanted him?” the demon said out loud this time, nodding at Eren’s direction.
“Sure. You can have him.” Zeke didn’t hesitate in answering not even for a single second.
‘Fucking asshole! Just drop dead, stupid Zeke!’ Eren cursed in his mind, the demon chuckling once more.
“Deal.” the demon said, snapping his fingers in a deafening sound only for Zeke to grunt and fall to the floor soon after.
‘What the Hell?!’ Eren gasped, looking wide-eyed at the scene.
“I just fulfilled your wish. Now, you’re mine.” the demon addressed him, turning around to look at Eren with an amused twinkle in his now grey-blue eyes.
The gag disappeared and the brunette looked at the taller male stupefied.
“Humans are truly stupid. They think that using somebody else as a sacrifice will work... is always amusing when they fail miserably.” He commented.
“What...do you mean?” Eren asked, voice soft and confused, still not processing everything that had happened.
“Well... I only came because your blood smelled magnificient.” He answered and Eren tensed up once more.
“You... are going to eat me?” Eren whispered, still not entirely himself.
“Why would I?” he shrugged, looking pretty calm. Eren looked more confused then, a million thoughts and doubts running in his overwhelmed mind. “As I said, I want you and since I made your which come true, you are mine now.Words are biding and so is blood. Since yours was used, you’re the one with the power to make a deal with me, not him.” the demon explained.
“But I didn’t agree to it!” Eren exclaimed, looking tense and uncomfortable, since, well, there’s a dead body on his living room’s floor.
The demon smirked, grabbing his chin so their eyes met once more.
“You sure?” Think carefully, pretty eyes.” he was told and Eren swallowed heavily before doing so, thinking back to Zeke’s sudden visit. Nothing came to his mind so, he focused on the moment the demon appeared.
Since the demon appeared, his attention had been directed at Eren, even when he talked to Zeke, he was looking at him. Then, Eren gasped and his eyes widened.
“Such a smart baby... You’re right. I asked you what you wanted and stated my conditions. You asked for something, not negotiating back, so you implicitly agreed to my terms.” the demon smirked, proud and entertained.
Eren whimpered, not knowing what to do. His eyes fell to the dead body of his half-brother, laying on his living room floor. A long, tired groan left his pretty pink lips.
“My life’s a freaking mess.” Eren complained in a cute, whiny tone of voice, the black-haired one chuckling again.
His bindings disappeared and the brunette caressed his wrist slowly, huffing at the red marks the tight rope left on his skin. The demon’s eyes narrowed before getting down on one knee and kissing the marks, Eren gasping at the gesture and at how the injuries disappeared.
“Much better... no marks should marry this precious skin.” he said and Eren blushed a bit, not used to the attention, much less from anyone as handsome as the demon.
“What now?” Eren whispered, insecure about what was to come.
“Well, we could stay here, in the human world, if you wanted...” the demon started before Eren sighed.
“But? What’s the catch?” He asked, those gray-blue eyes shining as if pleased by his question.
“But my powers won’t help you get out of that mess.” He said, pointing to the dead body.
Eren blinked a couple of times before huffing in slight annoyance.
“Even dead, he’s a pain in the ass...” Eren complained, looking at his half-brother with a frown. The demon chuckled again, getting Eren’s attention back. “What other option is there?” he asked, pouting adorably up at the taller male.
“You come to Hell with me. Become my wife.” the demon answered calmly.
Eren blinked, looking a mix of confused and surprised, before he blushed adorably.
“I don’t even know your name...” Eren mumbled, his brain scrambling to think of something that made sense.
“I’m Levi.” He said, smirking. Eren looked surprised at him, not expecting an answer. “So... what do you choose, pretty eyes?” Levi asked and Eren sighed as he shook his head, even if his cheeks took a pinkish tone at Levi’s words.
“There’s no actual choice. Even if I wanted to stay, you don’t seem the permissive type. You’d rather start a bloodbath than let me free or out of your sight.” Eren pointed out, pouting cutely.
“As I said... such a smart baby...” Levi chuckled caressing Eren’s cheek once more. “You’re too pretty after all. Why’d I want to share you with shitty humans?” Levi talked calmly, his eyes sparkling with possessiveness.
“I’m humen.” Eren pointed, doing his hardest not to react to the compliments.
“You were. Now that you’re mine... let’s say, your soul changed a bit to accomodate our different lifespans.” Levi told him and Eren blinked, surprised.
“Just... my soul?” Eren whispered, trying to comprehend.
“For now.” Levi answered calmly. Eren wanted to ask, but decided he was too tired from everything that happened and had no energy left to process any more information.
“If I go with you and become your... wife...” Eren mumbled the last word, blushing adorably.
“Yes?” Levi looked at him, interest shining in his eyes.
“You...” Eren bit his lower lip, hesitating before huffing. “Would I be the only one or you’ll get rid of me once you get tired?” Eren asked, looking a mix of serious and nervous. Some venom painted his words too, getting Levi’s attention.
“Oh, little one... I don’t share and once I have something as mine, it’ll stay that way no matter what. You become my wife and you’ll stay as that for all eternity.” Levi told him, direct and honest to a fault.
The brunette stared at his face for a long time, analyzing the demon’s words.
“Let’s make a deal.” He suddenly proposed. Levi chuckled, amused at the turn of events.
“What’d it be?” Levi asked, looking interested.
“I’ll go to Hell and become your wife. I’ll do any duties a wife should without complain as long as: 1- You never cheat on me in any way. Physically, emotionally nor just thinking about it. 2- You’ll always care for my well-being, protecting me in any way necessary from other demons and even yourself if the occasion occurred. 3- You’ll respect my decision. What I do on my free time, what I wear, where I go... I’ll be as free as possible as long as I don’t get myself in danger.” Eren enumerated, looking at Levi’s blue-grey eyes with an intensity that quite pleased the demon who hummed, looking pensive for a while before smirking.
“Sounds fine. However, I want to add something to the list.” He said and waited until Eren nodded his head to continue. “First: your duties will be to accompany me wherever I need to go, unless I specify you don’t have to or you’re feeling too unwell to go. Sharing a bed is a must, but I won’t force you to have intercourse with me. I expect the same from you. If I’m not in the mood, don’t try to force it.” He said seriously and looked satisfied when Eren nodded once more. “Good. Next, we’ll have at least one child.” Levi chuckled at seeing the confused look on Eren’s face as well as the pinkish tone on his cheeks. “I can get you pregnant, but don’t think too much about it now.” Levi commented, his smirk growing at seeing the indignant pout on the other’s face.
“Anything else?” Eren inquired softly, after processing the demon’s words. Levi nodded.
“Yes, pretty eyes. One more thing: cheating isn’t allowed to you either. I’ll put a spell on you that’ll activate when I ask you about it and won’t let you lie. If I find out you or anyone else tried anything... your freedom will be revoked.” Levi’s voice was serious and his eyes shone with a dark tone that made Eren shiver all over.
“How will I know you’re being faithful?”
“The spell will work both ways. And you can choose any punishment if I were to betray anything on our deal.” Levi added, looking thoughtful. Eren hummed, staying quite for some time, the demon’s words swirling in his mind.
“Then... your punishment will consist on two things: you won’t be able to touch anyone (no human, demon, creature, etc.) without feeling as if you’re getting crushed by rocks, set on fire, electrocuted constantly and your lungs would explode by the tiniest of breaths.” Eren stated which made Levi chuckle and his eyes twinkle with a bit of satisfaction. “On top of that, you won’t feel any sexual desire for as long as I choose.” The brunette declared firmly while Levi looked rather pleased by his words.
“You’re so interesting, baby...” I’ll take it. Our deal is pretty solid, yeah?” The demon told him, holding a hand out for the other to shake who didn’t hesitate in doing so, humming softly.
“Okay, you got yourself a wife. Please, take care of me from now on.” Eren giggled, getting up from the chair after letting go of the black-haired male’s hand.
“Belive me, baby... It’ll be my pleasure.” The demon growled, voice low and sexy, which made Eren blush some more. Clearly his body wasn’t opposed at being intimate with the handsome man.
Levi wasted no time then, he grabbed Eren by the chin and stole his pretty pink lips in a hot and breathtaking kiss. Eren moaning at the sudden explosion of passion and heat that expanded all over his body.
Once satisfied, Levi Carried Eren in his arms, who was looking quite dizzy after the kiss, and chuckled at Eren’s cute little yelp of surprise before the shadows came to them, enveloping their bodies in their mist before taking them away. Levi couldn’t be more please after that, his decision to show up in the human world got him the prettiest wife he could have ever wished for and he wasn’t going to let Eren escape. The cute brunette was now his and whoever said or did anything against his Queen... well, they’d surely disappear from Hell altogether. Levi will make sure of that.
...... The End ......
