Like Real People Do

[ONE SHOT] This is from a modern au I wanted to write, inspired by Hozier’s song, “Like Real People Do”. In this au, Erwin is a retired Black Ops turned detective for the NYPD. Levi is Jewish-French. His mother, Kuchel, was sold into a Human Trafficking Ring. And after her unfortunate death, Levi was moved around various countries being sold and used, until he ultimately ends up stationed in NYC. Our story begins as a distraught Levi comes to the police for aid. Clad in women’s clothing and big sunglasses, he tells Captain Erwin Smith about Petra Ral— a sweet girl, abducted, and soon to be sold to the highest bidder. Levi becomes a mole, helping the NYPD to bust one of the biggest Human Trafficking rings and solve the kidnapping that moved an entire nation.
