A Detective's Criminal

The meeting

(Hello my wonderful readers! Back again! Took longer to come back than I originally planned but I'm back now and with a special fic! This is a requested story from joonies_mono. They came to me a couple months ago with a really cool story line that I got super pumped for right away. And this is it! Little bit of angst, little bit of sadness but it wouldn't be one of my stories if I didn't run your feelings through a blender a few times. So, get ready for it!
Usual disclaimer: this story does contain themes of non-con and violence, so stay safe please!)

"Hold still, brat!"

"Look, it almost looks like a girl like that."

"Hey, it's my turn."

"Don't break it yet!"

Levi jerked awake, his breathing heavy. A cold sweat covered his body. He looked around himself taking in the surrounding of his bedroom. All the doors shut tight, his rarely used bed neatly made, nothing out of place. No damp concrete floor, no cold empty walls, no groups of filthy Alphas cackling around him.

Levi lented his head against the back of his comfy armchair. Dreams like that had plagued him since it all happened so he never did sleep properly. There was something about laying flat in bed that made a shiver run down his spine. He looked at his phone clock. Not even 11:30. He knew going to sleep at 9.00pm was a stupid idea. Levi shook his head and stood up, he may as well do something if that was all the sleep he was going to get tonight.
He changed out of the soft clothes he wore around the house into something a little more suitable for the place he was heading. Then grabbed his wallet and keys and left his apartment.

The streets were cold but his destination wasn't that far away. Living in the middle of the city really did have some perks. He reached the club he had in mind and slipped down the side alley. He nodded to the guy that lingered in the dark at the end; someone he'd met through his work. Levi punched in the code to unlock the door and pushed through it.

Inside, the music was loud and people were covering every inch of the dance floor. He skirted around the edge and hopped into a seat at the bar. "Hey, boss." The guy behind the bar said, when he had a minute to serve him.
"Hello, Jean." Levi said straightforwardly.
"Usual?" The younger guy asked.
"Yes, please." Levi replied.
Jean poured him his dark liquor and placed it on the bar in front of him. Levi held up a twenty pound note between his fingers. "Boss says we're not supposed to take anything from you, after what you did for us." Jean bent closer so he wasn't shouting quite so loudly.
"It's for you." Levi replied.
"You don't have to." Jean continued to protest.
"Fine then, spend it on your Omega." Levi said. After a moment Jean took the note from him and tucked it in his trousers pocket. "Thanks boss."
Levi raised his hand as a way of saying 'don't mention it' and turned around on his stool to watch the crowd.

Levi sipped at his drink and watched all the different people dance on the floor. It was easy to place people's biological statuses in a place like this. The Omegas danced lewdly, swaying their hips and bums, throwing lust-filled gazes at anyone who looked at them for too long.
Then there was the Alphas. They moved to the music, their eyes strong searching for their next prey to feast on. Some would thrust in the air as if to promise what would come if an Omega took the bait. They would flex their muscles and lower their chins at passing Alphas, in the bullshit mating dances.
And the Betas were everyone in between.

Levi was not impressed, never had been impressed by such a show. Because he knew that was all it was, a show, and that he was probably more dangerous than most of them put together. So when an Alpha slid up beside him at the bar he wanted nothing more than to end himself.
"Hey." The Alpha male beside him started. Levi flicked him a glance to make sure he was in fact talking to him and rolled his eyes. "Can I buy you a drink?" He persisted clearly not reading the offence scent Levi was letting off.
Levi turned his head to him, his usual deeply ingrained scowl on his face. "Come on baby, just one." The Alpha smirked at him, "Don't play hard to get. I can see you're unmarked. We could have some fun."
Levi knocked back his drink and turned back to the bar catching Jean's eye as he walked passed. Jean seamlessly picked up a bottle and filled Levi's glass. He then turned away and served someone else at the other end of the bar. Levi tipped his glass to the Alpha beside him and went back to ignoring him. "Oh what? You fucking the owner or something?" The Alpha asked bitterly. That didn't sit right with him. The Beta that owned this establishment was a very lovely older lady who'd lost her life mate in all the trouble Levi helped them out of. "You're gonna want to back up mate, or you'll end up losing your knot." Levi said with venom in his words.
"Haha, I like it when they try to act all Alpha makes it more satisfying when I fuck them into the mattress!" The Alpha grinned. Levi stood from his stool, slamming his glass to the bar. A growl began to slip passed his tongue when a hand wrapped firmly around his bicep. He turned and was met by Farlan's stern gaze. "He ain't worth it, man." Farlan said lowly.
Levi's scowl drifted back to the Alpha but he just tutted, downing his drink and letting Farlan pull him from the club.
