Chapter Text
Eren sits in the lobby of the apartment building scrolling through his phone, bored out of his mind. His long-term boyfriend, Floch, sits next to him just staring at the floor in contemplation. The landlord was running late which was a bad sign for the couple who wanted to rent the apartment. The brunette was hoping that this wouldn’t take too long as he and his boyfriend had to look at another place afterwards.
Eren was about to suggest leaving and look at the other place they picked to Floch before a short man walks up to them. He was dressed in a suit; jacket draped over his arm over that was a clipboard. The short man’s silky black hair was cropped and slicked back. His features were sharp and defined. His cheekbones high and his eyes a dark blue. Eren had to admit the man was drop dead gorgeous. He looked like he came out of a fashion magazine.
“Sorry for being late, work,” the landlord apologizes. Eren and Floch stand from the lobby couch. “It’s fine,” Eren says, he was about to follow up with a flirty line, but he stopped himself. He had a boyfriend he shouldn’t be trying to hit on another guy. “Anyway, I’m Levi, the landlord of the building. Before I show you the apartment, I need you to fill out this form,” Levi hands Eren the clipboard which Eren quickly fills out. As Eren fills out the forms, Levi has to fight against himself to let his eyes roam up and down Eren’s body. Who could blame him? Eren was a gorgeous man. Tall, tan, beautiful green eyes and brunette hair that was tied back into a bun.
The brunette hands the clipboard to his boyfriend who also quickly fills out the form. Once he was done, Floch handed the clipboard back to Levi.
“Thanks, now follow me,” Levi leads the couple into the apartment. The raven was already set on Eren and his boyfriend getting the apartment as soon as he saw Eren. He was just beautiful, and he would love to see that beauty every day. The showing of the apartment had now become trying to convince the couple to get the apartment. It would certainly be no problem. Just like he did with all the other apartments he owned, Levi spent all of yesterday deep cleaning the apartment. He even went back that morning to clean again. By the time Levi was done the floors were so clean you can eat of it. The raven also made sure that everything was fine and running smoothly. Luckily Levi hadn’t gotten any complaints about unreasonable or loud neighbors so there’s no one to drive Eren and his stupid boyfriend away. Now he just had to make sure they chose this place.
The landlord pulls out his copy of the apartment key and unlocks the door. He opens the door and ushers both Eren and Floch inside. “Over here,” Levi points to the left, “is the kitchen.”
The main color of the kitchen was white. The countertops were marble. The oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator were silver and black. It was a small and simple kitchen.
Levi walks past the kitchen, towards an open area, “this is the living room.” It was somewhat spacious. The floors in the apartment were dark hardwood while the walls were painted a basic white color. “Would it be cool if I paint the walls a different color?” Eren asks, leaning over the counter, a little cold from the A/C.
“As long as the apartment is clean and if you move out one day prime the walls so I can have painters paint it back,” Levi said, his eyes meeting Eren’s. He would usually say no but he didn’t want to see Eren upset. It really wouldn’t be a good look on him. Then again, he’s so beautiful that any emotion would look good on him.
“What color were you thinking?” Floch asks, leaning against the fridge behind Eren.
“Dark green or red,” Eren says, knowing Floch will have a problem. Their styles were very different so he knew that decorating the apartment would be a difficult if not an impossible task.
“I think we should keep the white.”
“We can talk about it later,” Eren felt himself getting agitated, so he decided to change topics and pick it up later when they were alone.
Levi, sensing the tension, moves to show the couple the other rooms. The apartment was small, so it didn’t take long. “The washer and dryer come with the apartment along with the other appliances,” Levi explains after opening the door to the laundry room. “Good, means I don’t have to buy new shit,” Eren comments. Levi hums before moving on to the bathroom then the bedroom.
“Do you think my bed could fit in here or do we have to buy a new mattress?” Eren asks Floch. Eren liked his current bed so it would be a shame to replace it. It was big so he and Floch can comfortably sleep on it.
“It could but I think we should get a new one. You have had your current one for years now plus I don’t know how you can sleep on it.”
“We can buy a new mattress but we’re keeping the frame,” Eren answers back. At least they were somewhere agreeing on something.
“So, any questions?” Levi asks once he and the couple make it back to the main room. Floch and Eren think for a few minutes. “Just one, when do we move in?” Eren asks, surprising his boyfriend.
“You don’t want to look at other apartments first?” Floch asks. He and Eren found two other places, one that Floch wanted to look at. It was so like Eren to be impulsive and not fully think through his decisions. That nasty habit of his has gotten him into some unsavory situations.
“Why? This place is closest to my work, and I can finally cancel my gym membership since this building has a gym,” Eren gave Floch a knowing glance after that last bit. There was an incident that happened a year ago that caused Eren to have to change his gym schedule. Maybe if Floch didn’t get involved and almost got him banned than he probably won’t have had to change his schedule. Working out after work was such a drag.
“Well, Trost is close to your work too and the apartments are bigger,” Floch tried to reason. Eren can’t just make this decision by himself no matter how much he wants to.
Eren fires back, “well it’s cheaper to rent here than at Trost.”
“Not by much, Eren, at least let’s look.”
“Fine,” Eren huffed, then turned to Levi, “can you keep this apartment open for us?” Finding himself unable to say no to Eren, Levi answers, “of course, just let me know when you make a decision.”
“Thank you,” Eren says. Levi, Eren and Floch make their way out of the apartment. Levi binds them goodbye, and they drive back home. Levi gives two more people tours before retiring back to his condo.

Meanwhile as soon as Eren and Floch return to Eren’s apartment they argue. This has become the norm at this point especially more as of late. “I KNOW YOU JUST WANT TO SLEEP WITH HIM!” Floch accuses.
“WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WANT TO SLEEP WITH HIM!” Eren yells back. This accusation wasn’t new. It was a new guy every week. Back in high school it was a classmate then when he started his job it was a coworker then the guy at the gym and now his future landlord.
“I’ve seen the way you were staring at him!” Floch says. Eren furrows his brows in confusion, “I was barely looking at him.” That was a lie, Eren knew but he was allowed to appreciate the beauty of other guys. It wasn’t like he was gonna sleep with Levi right then and there or ever.
“Yes, you were! Don’t fucking lie to me!” Floch was now tearing up. Eren had to stop himself from rolling his eyes. He always did this and Eren was sick of it. “I’m not fucking lying!” Eren yells back. He knew it would just become a back and forth that would go nowhere so Eren grabbed his car keys off the table.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m going to Armin’s place and before you freak out, I’m not gonna sleep with him,” Eren says before leaving the apartment. He gets into his car and drives off to Armin’s.
Levi gets back home from the last apartment tour. He was so glad that he would be off work for a week so he can spend that time recharging his social battery. The raven hangs up his jacket and heads to his office. He opens the system that is connected to the cameras in the apartment building and replays the footage of the tour with Eren and Floch.
Levi couldn’t just help staring at Eren. He was just the most beautiful man Levi’s ever seen. Floch didn’t deserve the tall, tanned beauty. He just seemed so angry at every decision Eren made. He understood that it was going to be his apartment too, so he had the right to be consulted before a choice was made but still. If Levi was Eren’s boyfriend, he would gladly let Eren paint the walls any color. Green, red purple blue, yellow hell rainbow if that’s what Eren’s gay ass desired.
Levi did all he could to make sure that they would be interested in that apartment. He needed to see Eren every day. He couldn’t allow the beautiful man to escape his grasp. All he could do was wait for Eren’s call and hope that the couple would move in. It scared him that he had no control over the outcome. He was scared to lose Eren. Not to be able to see him through his cameras and watch him live his day to day. Levi needed to let off some steam and there was only one thing that always did the trick.
After watching Eren on repeat, Levi switches to another apartment camera. Apartment 4B which was below the unit Levi showed Eren and Floch. The apartment belonged to two college guys. Levi didn’t watch them often because everything they did pissed him off. The way they talked made Levi want to take his gun out of its safe and blow his brains out. The way they dressed made Levi want to pluck out his eyes with a rusty steak knife.
These idiots were still in their classes or fucking around somewhere the point is no one was home according to the footage. Levi changes out of his expensive suit into some casual attire. Nothing too fancy, once he was done, he probably would have to throw away his clothes.
He leaves his condo and heads to the apartment building. Once he parks his car he slips on his gloves and gets out. The raven heads up to apartment 4B. Once he was inside, Levi grabs a knife from a drawer in the kitchen. He hides in the closet in one of the boy’s bedrooms and waits for them to get home.

The sound of the door opening alerts Levi that one of the guys has returned home. "I'm gonna go, I’ll see you at tomorrow’s house party, right?” Levi knew that annoying nasally tone that always had a way of assaulting his ear drums. It was Nick.
“Yeah totally, later,” a girl on the other end says. Nick mutters out a bye and hangs up. He goes into his room and sets down his bag down on his desk before jumping into his bed. The college student casually scrolls through his phone not realizing that he was being watched by his landlord.
Nick finally moves from the bed and towards the closet that Levi was in. Levi's heart races as Nick came closer. The anticipation almost suffocating with every step towards the closet. The college kid opens the door only to get a knife panted into his body. Adrenaline pumps through the raven as he pulls the knife out, his hand was around the back of Nick’s neck keeping his close as he stabs him again in the same area. Levi lets go causing Nick to stumble backwards trying to get away. It proves to be futile as Nick drops to his knees from blood loss.
A smirk appears on Levi’s usually stoic face as he watches the kid try and get away. He chuckles deeply knowing that Nick had nowhere to run. Getting away from the murderer was a useless endeavor. No one escaped Levi’s clutches. The killer takes the crawling college kid by the face and stabs him in the back a couple times. Levi manhandles Nick onto his back, gets on top of him and continues to stab Nick in the chest repeatedly. He’s panting and grunting as he lets out his anger and frustration. Blood spurts and gets everywhere including onto Levi.
Finally, the raven was forced to stop when the knife slips out of his hand from all the blood. Levi rolls his weight onto the side getting off the kid as he tries to catch his breath. Just like after ever kill, he feels fulfilled and satisfied. His stress and frustration gone for the moment. Now he’s starting to feel disguising realizing that he’s covered in Nick’s filthy blood. God, he can even taste it on his tongue. Levi was gonna need a shower when he got home.
For now, he would have to clean the apartment. He's done this a million times before, it’s almost instinct as he picks Nick’s mangled body up off the floor and onto the bed. Levi then proceeds to wrap him up in the blanket and carries his body into the bathroom then sets him down in the tub. The raven grabs whatever cleaning supplies he could find in the bathroom then goes back into Nick’s bedroom to clean the bloody mess.
Levi got most of the blood up when he heard the door open. “Shit,” The landlord curses as he grabs the knife from the floor and heads back into Nick’s closet. Asshole was back sooner than Levi expected. He was hoping to have the apartment spotless before whatshisface came back but it’s fine. Levi was always up for a round two.
The raven listens as whatever his name walks past Nick’s room and to his own bedroom. Once Levi was sure that the roommate was in their room, he gently opens the closet door then with quiet steps sneaks out from Nick’s room. The roommate had his back to Levi which he took advantage of and quietly walks up behind the guy. The raven goes for the kill and stabs the guy in the neck. Blood sputters out his neck as Levi takes the knife out. The roommate struggles to breathe as he holds his neck turning to stop the bleeding. His eyes widen when he turns around to his landlord standing there with a knife.
He knew that he was too weak to fight back, so he tries to run past Levi. The murderer lets him go knowing that the combination of losing blood and not being able to breathe is take its toll. He was proven right when he sees the roommate crawling away. Levi approaches the now crawling guy, laughing at the kid’s pitiful attempt to escape. Levi notices that from the back the roommate looks like a shorter version of Eren’s boyfriend.
The raven stands above the guy when he stops. He slowly swats down and takes the barely alive roommate by the hair. Levi pulls him up, his face now next to the kid’s ear, “Eren’s mine, Floch, he’s mine.” Levi smashes the redhead into the floor over and over again. His angry grunting turns into maniacal laugher as blood splatters onto his face.
Levi finally stops when his anger dissipates. He’s panting as he looks at the mess. The kid’s skull was caved in barely recognizable. It felt so good in the moment but now Levi was annoyed by the mess. Now he has to be here longer than he intended to be. The raven was tired and just wanted to shower and go to bed.
Levi gets up then takes the redhead’s body and swings him over his shoulder. He goes into the bathroom and places his body into the tub on top of Nick’s. Levi uses the cleaning supplies to clean the blood from the rooms and the hallway. Once the mess was cleaned Levi makes his way out of the apartment building. The raven sent the front desk lady home for the night, so the lobby was empty, and Levi could come and go without any witnesses. The raven unlocks his car and grabs the duffle bag he kept in there. Inside was a box of trash bags, duct tape, multiple different weapons, and a power saw. Once he had the bag, he makes his way back up to the apartment. Levi locks the door behind him and gets to work dismembering the bodies and putting them in trash bags.
The landlord puts the last of the bags into the trunk of his car. Tomorrow morning he’ll drive out of town to dump the bodies at one of his usual dump sites. Levi had most of his bases covered when it came to evidence that could be used against him. He’s been a serial killer for most of his life; he had it down pat by now. It was late when Levi arrives back home. Exhausted and covered in dried blood, He showers and heads to bed for the night.

Eren and Floch gets the last of their things into their new apartment. They toured the other apartments, but Eren was stuck on this apartment. The brunette would never admit out loud, but a big reason was because of Levi. Floch and Eren fought about it as usual, but Floch gave in, and they moved in the following week. They did lay out some compromises. The walls in the living room and kitchen area would stay white while their bedroom would be painted the dark green Eren wanted. Eren took his furniture from his old apartment which Floch didn’t like because all of it was black. Floch wanted the furniture to be white or a light gray color. He thinks it would look better than the black which Eren thought was stupid. They decided that they would keep the couch and bed frame, but Floch chose the other furniture. Eren just knew that this apartment was about to look horrendous.
Eren plops down onto his black modular couch tired from packing and moving. Floch comes over and lifts Eren’s legs to sit down beside him. Floch’s hand strokes his boyfriend’s legs that laid in his lap, “tired?”
“No, I’m just so full of energy. Can you tell?” Eren says sarcastically. Floch gives Eren a chuckle, “well since you’re so full of energy you can cook us dinner.”
Eren grumbles, “no, let’s order takeout. I’m too tired to cook.” The brunette pouts as he pokes Floch’s shoulder playfully with his foot. Floch rolls his eyes at Eren’s whining before grabbing his foot and putting it back into his lap. The red head pulls out his phone and opens the delivery app. Moments like these reminded Eren why he stayed with Floch. When it was good, it was good. Floch had some insecurity he needed to work on so that the good can last longer. Eren may have anger issues, but he didn’t like being angry and fighting all the time. Hopefully this new place plus some counseling could help Eren and Floch strengthen their relationship so it can go back to what it once was.
Eren tells Floch what he wants and Floch orders himself something. “Wanna watch a movie?” Eren asks moving to pick up the T.V remote that laid nearby.
“Yeah, let’s watch a horror movie,” Floch suggests. Eren nods his head as he starts scrolling through a couple streaming services. Eren and Floch couldn’t agree on anything. They were still looking when their food finally got to the apartment. Floch gets it while Eren stays on the couch still scrolling.
“How about this?” Eren asks, stopping on another horror movie.
“Yeah, that’s good,” Floch said, handing Eren his food. They eat as they watch their movie. Meanwhile their new landlord watches from his hidden cameras.
Levi zooms in on Eren. Eren was a messy eater which Levi found strangely cute since he hated mess. He laughs at Eren’s corny jokes about the movie. Listened intently as Eren would tell his boyfriend what he would do instead in the situation. He was not only beautiful but funny and smart. The raven was quickly becoming obsessed. Levi needed to get Floch out of the picture so he could have Eren all to himself. The short man knew he could be a better partner to Eren.
Once the movie was over, Eren cleaned up his empty food containers and told Floch he was gonna go shower. Levi switches cameras as Eren enters his and Floch’s bedroom. The brunette opens a box labeled clothes digging for something to sleep in.
He pulled out a black tank top and some pajama pants. He grabs a pair of boxers, and some black socks then heads into the bathroom. Eren exits the bathroom, going back to his unpacked room. Eren opens another box which was labeled bathroom stuff and grabs two towels, his soaps, and his skin care stuff.
With full arms, Eren enters the bathroom again and sets everything down then he turns on the shower. After Levi got conformation that the couple was moving in, he installed two cameras into the bathroom. One which showed the entire bathroom and another hidden inside the shower.
Once the water was to Eren’s liking, he strips out of his clothes giving his unknown watcher a show. Levi feels his dick harden watching more of Eren’s skin being revealed to him. The brunette climbs into the shower while the landlord switches to the other camera now seeing Eren’s naked body up close. The hot water sprays onto the brunette’s tan skin burning him a little which he doesn’t mind. It fogged up the camera a bit, but Levi still had a good view of Eren. After getting his front wet, Eren turns around to get his back wet which gives Levi a good look at the brunette’s broad back and his plump ass.
Levi unbuttons his jeans and slides his hand into his pants but over his boxers. He paws at his erection while watching Eren. Once his tenant got his body and hair sufficiently wet, he bent over to grab his shampoo. Levi gropes his cock a little rougher at the new view of Eren’s ass. God, he wanted to smack it until it was red and sore. Leave a couple bites and bruises, so Eren could feel it every time he sat down.
The raven slows down once Eren turns back around and massages shampoo into his brown locks. Levi takes a good look at his tenant's toned chest. Eren went to the gym regularly and that hard work definitely paid off as he had a nice 8 pack going on. Below toned abs that Levi would happily kiss and lick was Eren’s soft cock. Levi smirked to himself, he was bigger than Eren by at least a good three inches, thicker too.
Eren turns around again to rinse the shampoo. Levi’s dick oozes in excitement seeing Eren’s naked backside again. The brunette bends over again to grab his conditioner and squirts almost too much into his hand. He lathers the glob into his hair and keeps it in while grabbing his body wash and rag. Eren puts the wash into his rag and starts cleaning his body.
Eren starts with his left arm then drags the rag to his other arm. The rag changing hands so Eren could get down the other arm. This was already too much for Levi, he knew that once Eren got down to his privates it was over for him. Levi takes his hand out of his pants to savor this session. Levi watches as Eren slides the rag over his abs and pecs. He would give anything to touch Eren’s toned chest. Play with those pretty nipples of his.
Eren slips past his cock and starts washing his legs. Those thick thighs had Levi practically drooling. He couldn’t wait for the day he’ll be able to be between them as he sucked Eren off. Floch is a lucky man. For now, anyway.
Eren then comes back up and washes his lower back. Once he was done with that, he rinsed himself off making sure his hair didn’t touch the water. Eren rinses off his rag and puts a new soap in it. Levi slides his hand back into his pants but into his boxers this time and grabs his dick. The brunette wraps his wash rag around his flaccid dick. He strokes it going up and down cleaning it.
Levi matches his slow pace. Upon closer observation, Eren’s cock was growing hard. He was getting turned on! He was not only getting turned on, but he was jerking his cock. This was getting too much for Levi. He felt like he was going to cum at any given second. Eren jerks his cock faster which causes Levi to go faster. The brunette bites his lip trying to keep quiet which Levi hated because he just wanted to hear Eren. Levi knew Eren’s moans of pleasure would be the most beautiful thing he would ever hear.
The tenant starts thrusting his hips into the rag as his teeth unwillingly slips from his bottom lip which made Eren’s quiet noises come out. The noises goes straight to Levi’s cock. God, he wanted to hear him scream his name. The raven had to stop as he was getting close. The brunette pulls a hand up to play with his nipples. At that Eren lets out a loud moan which causes Levi to roll his eyes back and resume his stroking. Levi was close and he was hoping that Eren was too so they could cum together.
“Fuck, I’m gonna cum, baby” Levi groans out as his climax hits, shooting his load onto his clothed stomach. After a few more pumps Eren cums as well shooting his load on the shower wall which gets promptly washed away. Eren turns off the water and gets out the shower. Levi recovers and switches cameras wanting to watch Eren dry off and get dressed. The raven ignores the mess of cooling cum as he watches the brunette wrap his hair up before getting dressed. Once he was done, he started doing his skincare routine. Afterwards Eren unwraps the towel and dries his hair.
Eren leaves the bathroom turning off the light on his way out. Levi switches cameras watching Eren for the rest of the night. Levi decided to just take off his shirt and use that to clean up his cum. Watching Eren was far too important. He watches as Eren first goes into the living room to tell Floch he was done with the bathroom. He then goes into his and Floch’s room, getting into the unmade bed. He just scrolls through his phone while waiting for Floch to shower and come to bed.
Hesitantly Levi shuts off his laptop and heads into the bathroom to shower. His mind wanders back to Eren’s shower and before he knows it his hand is around his dick again. He strokes it and thinks about Eren’s body. He knew he could be a better lover than Floch. Levi would be in that bed for hours worshipping Eren’s body like it needed to be.
Levi’s mind drifts from Eren’s shower masturbation to many different fantasies. He would happily take Eren on every piece of furniture in that apartment or in his condo. Hell, if Eren wanted, Levi would fuck him on the floor. He’ll have Eren cumming multiple times in multiple positions. When he was done Eren won’t be able to walk which would be fine as Levi could take care of him while he recovered.
Floch was the one thing standing in the way of what Levi wanted most. He’ll take him out. So many ways he could do it. Levi wanted to kill him in the most painful way possible. First, he would place Eren on all fours above Floch’s tied up body. Levi will make Eren tell Floch how he loved Levi’s dick so much better than Floch’s tiny cock. He’ll beg for Levi while his boyfriend cries behind the duct tape that would be over his mouth. Levi might have a little mercy and let Eren cum on his ex-boyfriend’s stomach. Afterall it would the last time he ever saw Eren orgasm.
God, he can feel Eren’s ass tighten after he orgasms. Levi would thrust a few more times before he reaches his climax inside Eren. The raven comes back to reality as his cum paints his shower wall. Levi comes back down from his high as the water washes away his semen. He finishes his shower, dries off then gets dressed. He walks back into his bedroom, grabs his laptop and signs back into the security system. Eren was still in bed but now Floch was cuddled up beside him. Eren was on his phone as was Floch. The raven can’t help the jealousy that panged in his heart. That should've been him. And it will be him. Soon, not tomorrow but soon. Levi will worm his way in and divide them more. He knew they were not fully on the same page from the way they interacted at the apartment tour. Eren seemingly had one foot out the door already and just needed a little push to leave Floch for good.
When the couple went to bed, Levi closed his laptop and signed into the system on his phone. Levi was an insomniac, so he usually slept later into the night. So, Levi lays down watching Eren sleep, zooming in to get a closer look at the beautiful man. He looked so peaceful in his sleep. His mouth parted as he softly snored, his hair down and splayed over the white of the pillow his head was rested on. Every now and again Eren would change positions. He was truly the most gorgeous man to be walking this earth. He falls asleep with his phone in hand, thoughts of his Eren plaguing his mind.
