Chapter 368: The Right Path
As if we had reached an invisible marker, Selene suddenly came to a stop. Turning around, she looked the guys up and down before narrowing her eyes on me. I was beginning to think that Selene might hate kids as much as I did. She definitely was perfecting the ’death by glare’ look every time she stared in my direction.
"From this point on," started Rhys, nodding at the tribesmen behind us. "You are going to need to be blindfolded. We can’t have outsiders knowing our location. The safety and security of our entire tribe relies on our ability to keep it secret."
"Nows, I know you donna be blindfoldin’ me right now," purred Dimitri, but I could feel the suppressed rage simmering just under the surface. It suddenly hit me that the Sins had been in human form almost since the beginning.
They hadn’t been able to let the demon side of them out to play at all. Wrath couldn’t consume wrath as well when he was letting Dimitri always be in charge. None of the men could. Only the three Sins who had bound their souls to mine were a perfect blend between human and demon. The others, while they shared the same body, still had a divide.
Cocking my head to the side, I stared at Dimitri. "I’m sorry," I announced out of the blue. I was so lost in my own head that I didn’t take the time to realize just how much the guys were all sacrificing for me.
"For what, Kitten?" asked Dimitri, his eyes flashing red as Wrath pushed forward. "You don’t ever have to apologize to us for anything."
"Shit," grunted one of the tribesmen, looking at Dimitri like he had grown a second head. "Where did your accent go."
Not bothering to respond, Dimitri simply stared the man down, his eyes returning to their normal color.
"We’re good without the blindfolds," said Dante, cutting through the tension and confusion. "Thanks, though."
