Chapter 8
"Nice of you to join us, Bro." Sloth smirked as Wrath walked down the stairs after a long period of sulking.
"Don't call me that." Wrath said as he took the seat across from him. "I'm not your brother."
"You are in this reincarnation." Sloth smirked. "So why don't you just call me brother?"
Wrath didn't say anything. Sloth opened his mouth to try and goad him some more, but Lovino stormed in and threw down some food in front of them.
"I went out and got you breakfast." He said. "And you might want to see this headline." A newspaper joined the food on the table.
Missing: Ludwig Beilschmidt
Ludwig Beilschmidt, the husband of Angelika Beilschmidt went missing three days ago along with his brother Gilbert. According to his wife, Ludwig had not done anything wrong and wasn't planning on going anywhere. The crime scene investigated had only revealed that Gilbert had arrived before leaving with Ludwig with no struggle taking place. Should anyone have any information please contact the police.
"Stupid." Wrath muttered. He looked up in surprise when Lovino slammed his hand onto the table.
"So...your wife huh?" The dark haired Italian said in a deadly calm voice. "And here you were saying that you were loyal to Lust."
Pride and Sloth stood ready to intercept and restrain Wrath if he got ready to attack. Instead, the ruler just closed his eyes.
"Why are you so against me, Lovino? You weren't like this the last time we met."
"Because the last time we met you hadn't killed my sister!"
"And we don't get our memories back unless we have something the can bring them back." Wrath looked at him. "So what would have triggered your memories?"
Lovino took a step back trying to come up with an answer. When he couldn't reply he said something in Italian and stormed off.
"You could've been a little nicer." Antonio said from behind the counter.
"Why?"
"If you remember everything, you should remember who Lovino was in the past."
"Lust!" The Queen's brother came running up to her.
"Oh, Desire." The golden eyes queen smiled. "What is it, brother?"
"Why are you with Wrath of all the rulers? Desire asked his sister. "I know Greed is marrying Sloth and Envy is marrying Gluttony, but they're royals. You aren't."
"As it turns out, Wrath and I played together when we were little." Lust explained. "Grandpa and Wrath's Grandpa made a deal before they died."
"So you're marrying him because of Grandpa?" Desire said, feeling the need to revive his grandpa and get him to break the deal."
"Well, yes and no. Wrath and I both agreed when we were children to get married." Lust smiled fondly at the memory. "We just forgot until we met again."
Desire still didn't like the ruler and he'd make sure the Wrath knew."
"Desire?!" Wrath turned to look at dark haired male leaning against the wall.
"Good job, former ruler." Desire smiled mockingly. "I can't believe you figured it out."
"It seems like you hate me even more than you did in the past."
"Well you did kill my sister." Desire glared at him. "Did you expect me to be happy to see you again."
"I expected tolerance at most."
"Why would I be tolerant of someone who-"
"Lovino." Yao spoke up, interrupting. "Your brother is waking up and asking for-"
Lovino ran off.
Antonio gave Yao a look that told him he was delaying the inevitable. Yao nodded. Antonio sighed and went back to cleaning the dishes, and jumped when the door flew open and banged on the wall.
"Yo, Ivan!" Alfred walked through the door. "We're here!"
And that's it hope you enjoyed. Leave a review on your way out.
