Later that day, after the commotion with Sawney and Bean, everyone had their ODM gear inspected, as requested by the MP's.

The whole incident with Sawney and Bean didn't sit right in my head. I didn't understand why they had to be disposed of. I tried coming up with theories and ideas as to why they were killed. I still pondered the many possibilities in my head while cleaning the stables and tending to the horses after my gear was inspected.

Gunther and Eld sat nearby the stables chatting to each other about the incident while they sipped on some tea in their tin cups.

"In the end, we couldn't find a soldier who used their device without permission. Just who in the world would do it...?" Gunther took a sip from his tin cup."

Eld shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows? But I'm more worried about how the recruitment assembly went last night... I wonder how many recruits would be eccentric enough to enlist..."

"Hey, Célest, Eren! Do you know if any of your comrades were planning to enlist with us?" Gunther then took a sip from his cup.

Eren was busy feeding the horses oats from a bucket and I was busy sweeping hay back into the stalls, "Yeah... Well, there were but I'm not so sure anymore..." He replied.

Our attention turned to Captain Levi who rode up to us on horseback, making the four of us scramble, "Attention!" Gunther announced.

The four of us saluted Captain Levi, "Get ready to leave, Gunther, Eld."

"Yes, sir!" They replied in unison, then running off.

"Good morning, Captain Levi!" We responded in unison, standing at attention and giving him the honorary salute.

"Eren, listen up. Stay within two horses of me and don't forget the only reason you're not locked up is because I'm supervising you."

"Yes, sir!" Eren replied

"Céleste, have you completed your duties with the stalls?"

"Yes, sir! I just finished them a few moments before you arrived."

"Good, you'll be joining me today for Eren's experiments."

"Very good, sir!"

"Let's go." He replied.

We had rode out into the middle of a open field with small hills. Hange and Captain Levi thought it would be best for Eren to practice his titan shifting abilities in the open so he wouldn't damage anything except the earth beneath his feet.

Later in the day, Eren's training was stopped and as a group, we went over the formation plans for an upcoming training exercise. Erwin had put together a training exercise to "test run" the formation for the future mission to Shiganshina.

Gunther pointed at the parchment map, "We of the special-ops squad will be here in the center of the rear, on standby."

"That's quite far back." Eren muttered.

"According to this formation, from what I can see, it's the safest position in this formation. Even more secure than where the supply wagons are." I replied, looking up at Eren from the map.

"That's correct," Gunther replied. "At this time, we don't have a real objective. This expedition won't cover much ground since it's just a test run before getting you to Shiganshina District."

"Um, if you want me to be honest, I feel like that I still have no control of this power, yet."

A deep sigh escaped my lips, I placed a comforting hand on Eren's shoulder, "It's ok, Eren. You'll get there. It's just a matter of time."

"Did you understand the meaning of the commander's question back then, Eren?"

"Did any of you understand?" Eren looked between the group of us gathered around him.

"No." Eld replied, shaking his head.

"If anyone would know, it would be you, Célest."

I looked up at Eren in disappointment, my lips curled into a frown, "I'm sorry, Eren, I don't know either. My brother is a mystery sometimes. All I know is that his actions always have meaning behind it."

Petra shook her head in disappointment, not knowing anything about the plan, "I'd be lying if I said I knew for sure. That said-" Oruo scoffed.

Gunther then cut him off before he said something stupid, "This operation may have another objective. However, the commander decided to keep that hidden from everyone. So we should just focus on pulling this off without incident. Trust in the commander, Eren."

"Yes, sir." He nodded.

Gunther then rolled up the map, "This concludes today's training. Prepare to head back to HQ."

When we arrived at the former Survey Corps HQ, in the stables, Eren and myself are cleaning up after the horses.

I finished sweeping the hay on the floor in my section before propping my broom against the wall, wiping the sweat from my forehead with the back of my palm.

I walk out of the stable, Oruo stood outside against the wall, drinking tea from his tin cup. I bent down and picked up my cup on the ground near him, taking a few sips.

"Why are you friends with that titan shifter freak?"

I rolled my eyes at the question presented to me as I sipped my tea, "This may come as a surprise to you, Oruo, but before I met you guys and Erwin, Eren was one of my first real friends in Shiganshina."

He scoffed, rolling his eyes, "Yeah, well I still don't like him."

"You don't have to like him, you just have to respect and trust him. I know he can be a bit abrasive and buck heads with some people, but he is a loyal dedicated ally of humanity."

"Abrasive in my ass." Oruo grumbled.

"You can also be a bit abrasive yourself, Oruo." I spat.

He rolled his eyes again, "Whatever."

When I looked up at the people walking past me, Armin, Mikasa, and the others from my training class passed right by me, "Hey, Eren! You're gonna want to get out here!"

I then ran over to the group, "Hey guys! Wait up!"

A couple of them turned around and their faces lit up, "Céleste! It's you!" Sasha beamed, pushing her way through the group to embrace me. She picked me up off the ground with all of her strength, "I am so happy to see you, the induction ceremony was so scary!" She cried, tears ran down her face and the tip of her nose turned red.

"Let'er go, Sasha! You're gonna kill her!" Jean scolded, slapping the back of her head, making her put me back on my feet.

"I'm just happy to see another familiar face!" Christa beamed.

I looked at everyone surrounding me, "I'm shocked to see you all here, I didn't realize that all of you were joining!" Sasha, Connie, Jean, Bertholdt, Reiner, Ymir, Christa, Mikasa, and Armin all stood before me.

Mikasa then aggressively slapped her hands on my shoulders, "Where is Eren? Is he ok?" I noticed on high up on her left cheek, a new fresh deep cut.

I stuttered, struggling to find words, "Hey, Mikasa, Armin!" Eren then ran over to the group. "It feels like it's been forever!" He smiled.

Mikasa looked Eren up and down rapidly, "Eren, did they do anything terrible to you? Like inspecting every bit of your body or causing you mental anguish?!"

"No, nothing like that at all."

Mikasa scoffed, then stared at Eren through her brows, "That pipsqueak went way too far. I'll pay him back in kind someday..." She growled, clenching her fists.

"You're not talking about Captain Levi, are you?" Eren raised his brow. "But I'm so surprised to see all of you here, are you guys here because... Don't tell me you enlisted."

Connie laughed, "What else do you think?"

"We couldn't let you do this alone!" Sasha beamed.

"Then the only ones who picked the Military Police are Jean, Annie, and Marco?"

Jean coughed to make his present known, "Oh no! Not you too!"

"Marco's dead." Jean replied.

"Did you say Marco's dead?!"

I sheepishly tapped his shoulder, making him turn, "I should have told you sooner..."

"It seems like not everyone dies a dramatic death. We don't even know how he went down. He died alone without anyone seeing or knowing."

Eren looked down, "Marco..." He mumbled.

"Hey, recruits, gather up!" Ness smiled. "Your uniforms are here!" He waved the recruits over to his area.

Everyone ran up to him and Gunther as they passed out the new uniforms. I also assisted in passing out the new uniforms as well.

Later in the evening, after dinner, the group of us were gathered in the storage area of the castle.

"I heard that as a Titan, you tried to kill Mikasa. Mind explaining yourself?" Jean stepped forward, approaching Eren.

"That's wrong. Eren was trying to kill a fly!"

"I didn't ask you..." He looked over at Mikasa, she gave him the death glare, "Say, Mikasa. That wound on your cheek seems pretty deep." He tapped on the exact same area on his cheek. Mikasa grumbled, trying to hide the scar with her scarf, "When did you get it?"

Eren rubbed his one temple, "I think it's true... In my Titan form, I tried to kill Mikasa."

"So you don't really remember it, huh?" Jean pursed his lips, "In other words, you weren't aware you had that power until now, and you lack the means to control it."

"Yeah, that's right."

Jean let out a sarcastic chuckle, "Hear that, guys? That's the situation we're in! Our lives and mankind are in his hands!" He pointed to Eren, then throwing his hands in the air, "We'll probably die without Eren ever knowing, just like Marco did!"

"Jean, why are you driving Eren into a corner like this?"

"You know, Célest... Not everyone can blindly die for Eren or Erwin like you without anything in return." Jean then approached me, crossing his arms over his chest as he stared down at me, "We have the right to know... what exactly we're risking our lives for. Otherwise, we'll waver at the moment of truth," I rolled my eyes at his unnecessary lecture, "We expect something out of Eren. Please! Inform us on what to expect and whether it's worth our lives!"

I scoffed, crossing my arms over my chest and cocking my hips to one side, "Jean, your horse snout is sticking out further." The some of the people in the group chuckled. Jean snapped his head back to shut them up, "I hope you realize that we are all here to risk our lives and to find the truth about our world and I do agree, you all have the right to know but I can't give you those answers, we have to seek them out for ourselves. When it is time, Eren will step up and do his part, you have to have faith in him."

Jean then walked up to Eren and took him by the shoulders, "Eren, we're counting on you, ok?"

"Ah... Yeah... Ok." He nodded, for a second he struggled to form words.

I looked over at the group and Connie and Sasha were in awe, "Céleste... that was so inspirational..." Sasha replied.

"Now I know why you're becoming a section commander." Connie mumbled.

I then clapped my two hands together, getting everyone's attention, "Well as much as I enjoyed our conversation, I am going to relax a while before bed. I will see you all tomorrow." Everyone wish me goodnight before I left for my room.

Earlier, I overhead a couple soldiers talking about a natural hot spring nearby in the forest. They said it was about a click northwest from the castle. I wanted to go to the hot spring to relax before bed.

When I arrived at my room, my room was spotless. No cobwebs or dust to be seen anywhere. Captain Levi most likely had assigned someone to clean my room. My trunks were also present in my room, they were stacked in two neat piles over by my bed. Closing the door behind me, unlocking all my trunks, I rummaged through them to find a towel to take with me to the hot spring.

After I found my towel, I left to go to the hot spring. My lips hummed a cheerful tune as I walked through the dark woods in the night, without a care in the world. My hand hanging on to my towel that is draped over my shoulder and he other tapping on the housing unit that stores my extra blades. Every now and again, I would get this strange feeling that I was being watched from the trees and I would have to stop and check my surroundings. The soft sound of branches snapping would run a shiver down my spine.

When I arrived at the hot springs, a sigh of relief escaped my lips. I threw my towel on a nearby tree branch and started stripping my clothes. First, I kicked off my boots, shrugged my leather jacket off my shoulders, then started unbuckling my ODM gear and the tons of harnesses covering my body. I dropped them on the ground gently, unbuttoned my white collared blouse and unzipped my pants to leave me in my under garments.

I dipped my foot into the steaming water and my foot muscles immediately relaxed, "I am going to enjoy this." I hummed under my breath before removing my under garments.

The wind blew a shiver down my naked spine, making my body shiver as I stepped into the water and submerged my body in the water from my collar bones down.

"Ahh, this feels good."

"I bet it does."

I screamed and quickly covered my chest with my arms and turning towards the voice, "Oh my god, you asshole!"Reiner let out a whole body laugh. "What the fuck, Reiner?!" He was bent over, clutching his stomach for dear life.

"You're face was too funny!" He laughed, tears fell from his face and rolled down his cheeks.

I then splashed water at him, "That was absolutely uncalled for! You gave me a heart attack!"

"I'm sorry," He then stood up straight, wiping the corners of his eyes with the side of his index finger. "Earlier I heard you mention that you were going to a hot spring. I asked around to find the location, and here I am. Here to take a load off." Reiner walked closer to the edge of the water where I was standing collarbone down in the water. "I hope you don't mind my presence?"

"No, I don't mind at all. Just... keep your distance..." Then swam a further away in the hot spring.

Reiner smirked as he started unbuckling his gear and harnesses from his body, "Why? What do you think is going to happen?"

I looked away for a second, rolling my eyes, "Nothing, because you will be staying over there-"

Reiner had already unbuttoned his shirt and he was just about to take his pants off. I stared at him like a deer in bright lights. His toned chest and muscles exposed and the sharp V-line leading to his naval barely popping out of his pants.

"See something you like?"

"Uh, no, no, not at all. Just stay over there." I pointed to the water near him before looking away for a brief second before looking at Reiner again.

As he slipped his pants off, my face started heating up as I saw his cock bounced up and down, hitting the skin on his V-line. Reiner looked up and made eye contact with me. I gasped and turned away, hoping and praying to God that he didn't see me staring at his cock.

From behind me, I heard a loud splash and a few droplets of water hit the back of my head. For a few moments there was silence and I turned around to see where Reiner was but he was no where to be found.

Under the water, something grabbed both of my legs, I struggled in the water before Reiner emerged. He wrapped my legs around his waist and I could feel him growing against me.

He wrapped my arms around his neck, "I have a confession to make... and its something that I should have told you before."

I raised my brow in confusion, trying to hide the fact that his cock was growing bigger up against my pussy and I was extremely embarrassed, "Ok...?"

A deep sigh escaped his lips, "I've wanted to be this close to you and be alone with you for so long, Just seeing you like this is driving me crazy..." He sighed again, running his fingers through his buzzed blonde hair, smoothing it out. "The point I'm trying to make is that I want to fu-"

I placed my index finger over his lips, shushing him out of embarrassment. I knew what he was going to say, but inside, I want to keep my chastity while in the Survey Corps. With everything happening, I can't afford to be distracted or involved with anyone romantically, besides, I am too young to be involved with anyone.

His eyes became dark as he kissed my finger, then moving it and attacking my lips. In between kisses, he grunted and growled like a hungry beast, lifting me further upwards on against his chest by my thighs as I tightened my grip around his waist. From under the water, Reiner was fully erected and he was practically begging to push through my entrance.

My heart was racing and my stomach tangled itself in knots as I panted in between breaths, "Reiner..." I breathed. "I... can't do this..." Reiner continued to win over dominance in the kiss by defeating me with his tongue. The only thing I could do was to surrender and be submissive to the fire. "I have... responsibilities... duties!" I moaned. "Everyone is counting on me and looking at me-"

Reiner pulled away and scoffed while rolling his eyes as he pursed his lips in disgust, "You always have some fucking excuse not to do something..." I couldn't form any words because I was so confused and baffled by his words. The only thing I could do is stare at him like an idiot. "I've made so many subtle advances towards you and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. You act like you have a husband and pretend you're so innocent just to keep your chastity," I swallowed a lump in my throat before looking away, Reiner forcefully gripped my chin, making me face him again, "And I have done everything I can to hold myself back, but I can't anymore-"

"Reiner... I'm sorry but I ca-" Mid sentence, as my mouth was open and venerable, Reiner forcefully pressed down on my tongue inside my mouth with his thumb as he held my chin in a tight grip.

My eyes fluttered as a soft moan escaped my mouth, "Céleste, every time you mumble, you're giving me a perfect opportunity to shove my dick deep down that pretty little throat." My eyes widened at his words, "Fuck it..." He growled before moving in the water towards the grass at the edge of the hot spring, throwing me down at the edge before crawling on top of me.

I tried covering my chest and privates with my arms and one hand but poorly failed as Reiner forcefully kissed me again, gripping my breast. Once again, our tongues were eat war, fighting for dominance.

"I wanted to fuck you every chance I got... I wanted to fuck you that day on the wall while we were cleaning the cannons, in the infirmary, out in the snow, in the forest after the bandits that kidnapped you, I wanted to fuck you in every scenario we faced and make you scream for more but with every year that passed, it got harder for me to contain my erotic primal urges towards you, but now..." Reiner then spread my legs open my my knees as he put himself between my legs and went down, sucking on my one nipple and fondling my breast in his other hand, "You're at my mercy and helpless for me to ruin you." Reiner ran his tongue around my nipple, teasing the skin before biting down on it ever so slightly.

An electric shock ran through my body as I screamed in pleasure, my back contorted in a way that was unnatural, "Reiner... please stop... that feels so weird..." I stuttered as I gripped a fists full of his golden hair in my hands.

He chuckled as he then sucked on my nipple, making a loud popping sound as he released it from his mouth, "You don't like it? Your pussy tells me otherwise," He ran his fingers over my clit and my wet pussy, then holding up his fingers to show me my wetness, "Look at how wet you are."

"Stop saying that kind of stuff! Its so dirty and embarrassing!" I shouted.

"I'll give you something to be embarrassed about..." He growled and he lowered himself towards my pussy, his hot wet tongue flicked over my clit, sending another shock through my body. He took long strokes over my hole and my clit, flicking and licking around my clit before slamming his middle and ring finger inside my hole as he stroked me from the inside.

"Reiner, please..." I squealed and thrashed my head back and forth.

His tongue licking my clit synched with the strokes he was doing inside of me. I could feel my juices squirting on his face and running down my body towards my  butt.

Reiner chucked, "You look like you're going to snap in half and with these delicious juices flowing out of you, I'd say you're getting close to your high."

"Reiner, stop saying those things! Its so embarrassing!"

Reiner continued licking my clit and stroking my insides with his fingers, "How can I? Your body is betraying you,"I clenched my jaw and pulled on his hair, "The thought of you coming to my quarters every night, panties off, and your legs spread wide open, begging me to go down on you is so intoxicating and clear in my mind-"

"I would never!" I moaned, "Thats in such poor taste!"

Reiner chucked through his teeth, "Thats what you think now, but in time you'll change your mind," His body hovered over me, before he lowered himself to fondle and suck my boobs, making a popping sound. "For now, try not to hate me too much." Reiner then slapped his cock against my lower abdomen, making me gasp.

I stared at his cock, blinking my eyes, "It's too big... it won't fit..."

A smirk painted his face, "If you keep your mouth open like that, I'll have to shove my dick down your throat." After that, I immediately closed my mouth, knowing I wasn't going to fit all of it in my mouth, Reiner flipped me over on my stomach in the blink of an eye. I squirmed under his weight, rising to my hands and knees as I screamed out in pain.

"Fuck!" My insides were stretching and opening as he entered into me, "That hurts!" Reiner wrapped his one arm under my stomach and braced his other hand on my thigh. I on the other hand arched my back, pressing my face into the dirt.

He chuckled, "I'm not even all the way in yet."

I shook my head and turned my head to look at him behind me, tears started running down my face, "It hurts so much! There's something wrong with my insides!"

"You're not used to my length or girth... but there's no going back now." Reiner slammed himself against me, making a loud slapping sound mixed with me moaning cries.

It felt like my insides were ripping and my skin was on fire. After that first thrust, Reiner continued at a rough pace, filling the air with loud slapping sounds. Grunts and growling sounds escaped his lips while my mixed cries echoed through the air.

If anyone caught us here making love, we'd both be permanently discharged. Erwin and the rest of my family would be so disgusted with me, they would probably disown me. Captain Levi would hunt Reiner down and mutilate his body, burying it where no one would find it.

"Reiner-!" My quivering lips cried out.

Reiner growled, "Say my name again, Angel." Gripping my chin and turning my head to make me look back towards him.

"R-Reiner, please stop! It hurts!"

He then used his hand to play with my clit while maintaining speed and roughness, my body started shaking as I cried out, "You're so adamant on begging me to stop..." He approached my ear, his breath, hot on my neck, "But your insides are biting my dick tighter and tighter."

The fire inside me grew bigger and bigger. I felt like I was melting from the inside out with every thrust, "Stop saying those things! Please take it out, it feels weird! I can't take it anymore!"

"Good, good, you're getting tighter with every thrust..." He growled before increasing his speed, he wrapped his hands around my waist, forcing my hips back and forth.

My forehead touched the dirt and my tears made small puddles as I gritted my teeth and clenched my jaw, I was about to hit my high. My stomach and body tensed up, mixing pleasure with pain as I screamed out with my fingers digging into the dirt beneath me. Reiner stiffened up, letting out low growls as he stopped thrusting and the both of us reached our high. We came at the same time, together, my insides filled up before it started spewing out warm milky white liquids. Reiner's body eased up after filling my insides. A gasp of relief escaped my lips and my body eased up as I hit the ground, breathing heavily as I caught my breath.

His cock twitched inside of me, "Is it over...?" I said in between breaths.

A low laugh escaped his lips, this was a low evil laugh that I've never heard from him before, it sent shivers down my spine.

Reiner approached my ear, I could hear him panting, "Céleste..." From the way he said my name, I could see the smile on his face. "Have you ever seen dogs mating before?" His words made my heart skip a few beats and another gasp escaped my lips.

"The male dog doesn't pull out, even after he's finished..."
