Chapter 437: No Longer Brothers
This time, when Dimitri slammed his fist into Luca’s face, he didn’t hold back. Luca’s nose shattered as blood sprayed in an arch over the couch and coffee table, soaking into the already bloodstained carpet under his feet.
"What the fuck was that for?" demanded Luca, his eyes flashing bright green as Greed tossed Luca into the back of his mind and took the reins.
As one of the Seven Sins, Greed knew the dynamics of their relationship better than anyone, and at the base of everything was the belief that only the seven of them mattered. So why the hell was Wrath punching him in the face for that comment?
Wrath straightened his back as he looked down at the other sin. His face twisting in a sneer, it took him longer than it should have to calm down enough to address Greed. "There are so many things wrong with you and your statement that I don’t even know where to start," he seethed, his eyes narrowing on Greed’s chest.
"But maybe I should start with this. If you have truly forgotten the last four years, then listen to my words and take them as being written in stone. I am not your brother. I don’t give a fuck what you think, what you remember, or what you do."
"Since when were we not brothers?" demanded Greed, even as his nose healed itself. "It was always us against the world. When did that change?"
"Four years ago," replied Wrath as if the answer was obvious. "The moment we met Hattie, we stopped being brothers. I put up with you because you are one of her men, but make no mistake, if you step out of line, then I will either put you back in it or kill you."
"I don’t believe you," shrugged Greed. "You talk a big game, but at the end of the day, we were created together, we have done everything together. You can no more walk away from me than I can and will walk away from you."
Wrath opened his mouth to say something, but Greed simply held up his hand. "And if you are still focused on following that child, then I will find Pride and the two of us will beat some sense into you."
