Yellow fog dragged me along with him as we walked down the long hallway. Weird, even though his hold on me was firm, he wasn't hurting me.
"Where are you taking me to?" I asked as I tried struggling from his hold. He didn't answer my question. He stopped in front of a
door and opened it. He motioned for me to enter. I refused.
"Are you going to kill me behind doors?" I sniped at him. He.rolled his eyes. My mouth dropped open in shock. Oh my goodness, he just rolled his eyes. He chuckled lightly at my reaction.
"If I wanted to kill you human, I would done that a long time and if you can remember clearly, even with the snap of my fingers." True, I swallowed as I remembered the events of the night that changed my life. I took the wiser decision and entered the room.
It was a dining room, it was beautifully decorated and there were different array of dishes arranged on the table. There were even fruits. At the sight of food, my stomach rumbled. He arched his brow at the sound. The table looked set for a king's banquet.
"Are you expecting guests?" I asked as I sat and helped myself to a plate of food. I didn't wait for an invitation, I was never one shy for food. At least if I was going to die, I will die with food in my stomach. He merely watched me, didn't even touch a morsel of food. Not even water.
"No, just for us." Just like before. I frowned as I heard his last statement.
"Just like before?" He grunted and mumbled in a low voice.
" Damn, forgot how nosy she is." I frowned. Who is he talking?
" Dude, Yellow fog, you are starting to act weird." I picked a piece of strawberry.
"Yellow fog? Is that what you call me?" He didn't smile or chuckle. But the corners of his eyes crinkled.
"What am I supposed to call you after seeing you in that weird bright yellow glowing form?"
He laughed at that. His laugh was magical. I liked the feeling that I made him laugh.
"That is my god form." Say what again! I paused with stuffing my face with food.
"If you are a god, then I am an angel." I scoffed in amusement an waited for him to join me. He didn't, I realized that he was serious. This guy must be more delusional than I thought.
"You are a god?"
"Yes I am." He said as if he had no care in the world. This guy is sick, I decided to humor him.
"Say, I believe you now what kind of god are you?"
"I am Ra, the Egyptian god of sun." Seriously, and he is saying it with all pride. No wonder this place looked as if archaic Egypt vomited all over it. Oh my gosh, why didn't I think of this? They must be a cult. Yes, they must be archaic Egyptian fanatics. This Ra or whoever he is, must be their leader. It was a pity that such a handsome fellow was losing his mind, if he had not already lost it.
"You are crazy and delusional." I quipped. But come to think of it, he had powers. No my eyes must have played a trick on me.
"Are you doubting me?" He growled and his amber eyes flashed with a predatory gleam. Something warned me to tread carefully. But I never heed to caution. I provoked him further.
"You are just an Egyptian fanatic who..." Immediately, the room got darker and he flung the dining table away from us. I looked at him in shock because he didn't even move a muscle. A bright yellow flash appeared in the room. Jeez, what was going on? This is the night I am going to die. I lamented. He was really a god. So gods do exist. And I was going to die at the hand of one. I have to dive for cover. After the flash went down, a beautiful woman with long black hair was there. She was dressed in white flowing robes with beautiful sandals.
"Ra, I've been looking for you." She looked at Ra then seems to notice the disarray the room and then me shivering at the corner .
"Ra, what is a human doing in your custody?" She frowned. Just great, another one like him. That was my last thought before I fell into unconsciousness.
LanaI woke up to the sound of two voices arguing."It can't be her Ra, she looks different." She whispered-yelled. I blinked my groggy eyes and focused on the two figures in the room. The woman looked agitated and Ra looked tensed with his jaw clenched tight."You are mistaken Ra, you just miss Bastet." The name resonated in my head, it sounded familiar. Who is Bastet? I cocked my head to the side. The still unknown woman looked up as she registered my movement."You are awake." Yeah evidently I was awake."Are you feeling okay?" I didn't reply but stared at them.Why isn't she saying anything?Are you sure she is okay? Must have hit her head harder than I thought.If she did it's all my fault, I shouldn't have frightened her.I continued looking at them, throughout the conversation they just had, they didn't even move their lips. How on earth is that possible? Something weird and fishy is going on. It was like they were communicating through their minds."Are you going to kill me?"
LanaI was befuddled by what happened the day before. It was still wondering how I was able to hear what they both said. Could it be that I was related to the gods? like a descendant of theirs. Even if I was, which one was my direct relative? I had to find answers and finally clear up this confusion and know the reason I'm here. I was chilling in the balcony at the top floor of my room. Not that I was getting used to it. I still wanted to go home, back to my normal life. But this was fun, you know just sitting down and doing nothing. Getting pampered like a queen, eating different delicious kind of foods and doing almost anything I like. You know a girl could get used to a life like this.Gem, one of the maids that was assigned to me called out."My lady, your bath is ready." I turned to see her holding a towel with her head in a bow. I sighed."I've told you not to bow to me. I am not a god." "Forgive me my lady, but we have been instructed to do that." She curtsied, along with the
LanaStrangely, I was having a good time in this mystery unknown world. But little did I know it was going to change and I would be exposed to different things. But that was going to work out in both negative and positive ways for me.I was in the dinning room enjoying a pleasant sumptuous meal without Ra. Yeah, not that he eats often but at least he makes an effort for me. This days I was getting kind of fond over him, it was like we had been long time friends. Strange though, back to my present I was busy sucking on a succulent grapefruit before chewing when a bright flash went off right in front of me. Now who the heck was it again? I knew it wasn't Ra because the aura I was getting from this unknown person was kinda of ... cool. The flash cleared to reveal a .... man with a very astounding complexion, pale skin and icy blue eyes. He was tall but not as Ra, he was slightly muscular and his build was slightly similar to that of a professional swimmer. And the weirdest thing was tha
Lana After the incident at the dining room, a lot of doctors came to attend to me. They all came up to the same conclusion that my throat was just sore and I needed to take it easy.After that I took my bath with the maids at my beck and call. I was applying lotion to my skin when my door opened with Gem and the other memaids bringing in plates of food and fruits. They dropped the dishes on the table beside my bed. I looked over to see that they were mainly semi liquid, thank God at least it will make it easier for me to swallow."Lord Ra instructed us to bring these to your room. He said you should take it easy on your throat." Awwwnn, Ra was so considerate and sweet. "And Lady Menthu sends her regards." They bowed down as they turned to leave. Gem turned back and clicked her fingers."Before I forget, Lord Ra says you should be ready in an hour time." No, I take back my words, Ra is an asshole.********************************************** Unknown PovI was sparing with one of m
LanaAfter eating in my room. I wore a flowing gold dress with open toed sandals. Gem applied light make up to my face, according to her to enhance my natural beauty. Even I was appreciating myself in the mirror after she was done.Ra was waiting for me in the his receptive chambers when I entered. He looked at me in awe, I could see the appreciation in his eyes."You look beautiful." I arched my brow."So I look ugly on a normal basis." I pulled my face into fake frown just pulling his legs. He fell for it."No, that's not what I'm saying. You always look breath-taking every time I see you." He looked into my eyes as he said that. We were both lost in the moment, he was looking at me like someone so special to him. Like he loved me? I creased my brows in thoughts. "Wipe that frown from your face, you look hideous right now." His expression was back to normal. I elbowed his hard stomach as I laughed softly, sore throat remember? "We both know that's a lie. You look uptight, Is it be
LanaThe room quietened as we flashed in. Everyone was looking at us, more at me though. Without saying a word, they took their respective seats even Ra as he left not before clenching my shoulder in one last form of support. I felt very small under all their penetrating stares, it was so unnerving. I fought the compulsion to fold my arms or hide from their scrutinizing stares. I just needed The Summoning to start, so that I could leave this uncomfortable place.A minute later, Khonsu flashed in. He was wearing an ice blue pants with a sleeveless jacket, leaving his chest open. His face was expressionless displaying indifference, like he had other things to do and this summoning was a waste of his time. "Can we get this summoning going?" He grumbled with a hand in his pocket. "How nice of you to grace us with your presence, Khonsu." One of the ladies spoke with a false smile on her face crossing her slim legs. She was the image of feminine grace. I noticed there were only three ladi
Lana I was turning around restlessly in my bed, crunching my brows tight in confusion. I was confused because of the different dreams I had in just one night. And the worst thing was that I didn't understand any of it since they were coming in the form of flashes, and I was always dying in each one.The last one before I jolted awake, I was running away from some people. Though I couldn't see their faces since they were blurred. I couldn't get away fast enough and got hit on the back with a club.That was when I woke up with a gasp, my body and the sheets were covered with sweat. I was breathing heavily scared shitless out of my mind. What was that and when did that happen? I felt a pricking sensation at my back and lifted my pajamas top. I felt around the area, it was sore and I was feeling remnants of the pain. Wait! what was going on? I rushed to the bathroom and moved to the mirror. I lifted my PJs top again, turned to the side and checked again. I sucked a breath at what I sa
LanaI never the library to be this big, but what did I expect when it is owned by a god. It was divide into sections and arranged in rows and columns. I was amazed at the monstrosity of the library, I walked over to one of the shelf and touched, more like caressed the spine of one of the books on it. "Do you like it, my lady?" Gem asked with a little smile in my direction. She always had that little smile thing going on. "Why yes. I totally love it." I screamed in excitement and almost twirled. I heard shuffling of feet coming toward our direction. My little charade must have alerted them to the presence of other people in the library. "Who is there?" an old croaky male voice called out. I exchanged glances with Gem, that person had to be very old. His voice had that droopy feel to it."It's me Gem." Gem called out. The shuffling feet was coming closer and then an old man came out from the side of one of the shelves. He was very old and had wrinkles all over his face. The most ou
