Sadie's POV

"Wake up!" Anput yells.

I sit up and look at Anput. She wore a red V-neck t-shirt, a pair of black jean shorts, and some combat boots. She looked at me with her arms crossed. Anput uncrosses her arms and looks at Anubis. I turn and see Anubis shirtless stretching his arms. I was probably just as lost as she was. I had seen him shirtless once. I'm sure Anput has multiple times. I turned my attention away from Anubis and caught Walt's eyes. He was looking at me with his arms crossed. He probably noticed that I was looking at Anubis. I give him a look to drop it. He smiles and starts helping Jaz fold the blankets. Walt had something to hold against me. Sometimes, Walt felt like an annoying older brother. This was one of those times.

"Be ready in five minutes," Anput says and walks out of the room.

I sit down and fold my blankets. I glance over at Anubis and watch as he pulls his shirt over his head. He catches my eyes on him. I quickly look away. I begin putting my blankets in my bag when he sits down next to me.

"Hey Sadie," He says. I looked at him. His brown eyes, his lips, his arms, his shoulders. I thought about kissing him. "Everything alright?"

"Yeah, why?" I ask.

"You're staring at me," He tells me.

"I'm sorry," I say. "Maybe you should wear a shirt then you wouldn't be so distracting."

Anubis laughs. "I didn't know I was going to be so distracting to you Kane."

"Well you are, Jackal boy." I say. Anubis smiles. I hadn't called him that in a while. He was probably smiling because we were starting to be friends again.

"Line up against the wall!" Anput says returning back. She looked disappointed that Anubis and I were sitting on the bench talking. As we line up against the wall, Anput glares at me. I roll my eyes at her. "Tie them up." Anput says to the guards before leaving the room.

The guards come in and they tie our hands. They then guide us to the main room where Set and Anput were waiting. Set sat in a chair. He wore ripped black jeans, a red t-shirt, and combat boots. He had tattoos of flames up both of his arms. He stood up. He walks down the line of us. He stops at me. This causes Anubis to try to move but a guard grabbed him.

Set makes a portal and the guards take us through. Once we go through, we were in a mansion. We were in the entry way. Dark brown hard wood floors went through the whole house. There were two staircases that lead up to the next floor. In the center was a balcony above the main floor looking down at the entry. Under the balcony was a hallway with a couple of doors. To the left was a living room and to the right was an office. The guards lead us up the stairs. They split us up. Carter and Zia, Jaz and Walt, Anubis and me. They put us into rooms and untie us once we were there.

The room that I was in had red walls. There were a couple of windows. They had bars on them. He knew that we'd try to escape. There were two beds. They were full size. They both had the same dark brown pour post bed frame. They were both covered in black silk sheets and red quilts with golden hieroglyphics on them. In between them and on the sides were matching dark brown end tables. The floor was covered in white carpet. The curtains on the windows were golden curtain. There were two doors. One probably to a closet and the other to a bathroom. I sit on one of the beds and Anubis sits on the one across from me. They were close enough for our knees to touch.

"Any idea where we are?" I ask.

"Set's mansion in Manhattan," Anubis tells me. "I've been here before."

"Why did they separate us?" I ask. "And why did they put us together? I'm sure that wasn't Anputs idea. She would have me on the whole other side of the mansion."

"I don't know the answer to either of those questions." Anubis says. "I can tell you it was most likely my father's plan."

"Your father is evil. I also think he might be interested in me." I tell him.

Anubis rolled his eyes. "He's doing that because he's crazy and because he wants to make me mad."

"Why would it make you mad?" I ask.

"Because, he knows that I love you." Anubis says.

I smile. "You love me."

"You know that," Anubis says. "Just because your feelings changed doesn't mean mine did Sadie."

"My feelings didn't change," I say. "I was upset and mad. I still love you."

Anubis and I stare at each other. I looked into his brown eyes. I looked down at his lips then back to his eyes before moving. I get up and move to sit on his lap. I put my hands on his neck and lean in to kiss his lips. He kisses me back and puts his hands on my waist. I missed kissing him. I deepened the kiss and move my hands to his hair. Anubis moved his hands up to my back. Anubis pulls away and kisses my jaw and moves down to my neck. I continue to run my hands through his hair.

"Well look what we have here," A voice says. Anubis and I were both startled and I move to sit on the bed across from him. The voice was Anput. "I thought you didn't have feelings for him anymore."

"Anput," Anubis says. "Just get over it. I'm never going to love you. You're not her."

Anput crosses her arms. "She will die one day Anubis," Anput says. "I'm immortal. You're immortal."

"I'm not immortal," Anubis says. "I'm powerless. I'd be willing to lose my powers to be with Sadie. You can't change my mind Anput. I loved you, not anymore. It's time to move on."

Anput rolls her eyes. "I doubt Sadie will even live much longer. If Julius doesn't come and turn himself in. I'll kill her first."

"I don't think Set is going to let you do that Anput," I say. "You saw the way he looked at me today and yesterday."

"Anubis," Anput says. "Come with me. Set wants to talk to you."

Anubis gets up. I sit on the bed and watch Anubis leave the room. Anput gives me one last glare before she shuts the door behind her leaving me alone. I put my hand on my neck where Anubis's lips were. I smiled. I was definitely in love with Anubis. I then thought about what Anubis said about giving up his powers to be with me. I was just some mortal that he met. He had many more years than I did but was willing to give all of that up for me. I wasn't sure if I could let him do that. I also wasn't sure if I could move on with life without him.

Here's the next chapter for you. I was struggling on writing the previous chapter and this chapter. I'm assuming writers block.
