Sadie's POV
I was sitting in the chair shocked. Set looked at me. "Something wrong?" He asks.
"Anubis," I say. "Is your son?"
"Yes," Set says. "He didn't tell you?"
"No," I say. "He said that he had a father that did not want to be a part of his life."
"I wanted him to be apart of my life as soon as I learned about him. I was going to raise him to follow in my footsteps. When he was eight he told me, he didn't want to end up like me and I killed his mother to give him no choice. He managed to escape me and then I haven't seen him since." Set explains. "So I have killed everyone he has cared for his foster family that took him in, his mother, and a couple of friends he used to have."
"What makes you think Anubis is going to come for me?" I ask.
"You see," Set says. "At first I didn't think he would. You were his mission. He doesn't usually get attached to any of his missions. I've had a couple people that had spotted you guys say that he was getting too attached to you. Leaving him in the car was to prove that theory. If he comes here then I know he cares."
"Or he doesn't want to fail his mission," I say.
"Since you've been captured he has already failed," Set tells me. "He can't continue the mission with his injuries. They probably have people looking for you as we speak. So, if Anubis were to come here⦠It would be for you. Not for his job."
I sat there and thought about it for a minute. I was not sure if Anubis would come for me. We did kiss but we didn't get the chance to say anything so I'm not sure how he felt about me.
"I think we had quite the chat today," Set says. "I'm going to let you go back to your room. I'll talk to you tomorrow."
Set leaves. A couple seconds later guards come in to lead me to my room. When I got back there I sat and started thinking about Anubis. I hoped that he was awake from the coma and that he was looking for me. I was constantly thinking about Anubis. If he comes for me that means he cares about me and he's not just completing some mission. If he does not come, he probably didn't care as much as I'm hoping he would. I also didn't want him to come because Set wants Anubis to watch me die. I didn't want Anubis to suffer that kind of pain. I had to find a way out before Anubis figures out where Set is located. I don't know If I would have days or weeks or if Anubis would even come. I just need to work on a plan until he does or until Set decides to kill me. I was on a race against evil to come up with a plan.
**The next day**
I woke up from the same dream. The car accident. I'm not sure if my mind can't get away from it or if it was some kind of trick from Set to make me suffer. I'm also not sure if this is going to happen everyday until I get found or until I get killed. I honestly am not sure what is going to happen first. I don't know how long Set would wait it out. It could take Anubis days, weeks, or years to find me if he was looking for me. I'm not even sure if he was going to come for me. I proceed to get ready for the day. Once I'm done with my morning routine there was a tray at the table.
It was the same meal as the past three days. I decide not to complain because it was morning and I was hungry. I ate it and then I sat back in the chair and sat in silence. A few moments past before guards come into the room.
"Come with us Miss Kane," One of them says.
I get up and follow them down the hall to Set's office.
"Good morning Sadie," Set says. "How did you sleep?"
"Fine," I cross my arms. "What do you want now?"
"Well," Set says. "As you know I don't plan to let you go. Since I am however hosting your stay I should probably make sure your room is as comfortable as possible."
"I wouldn't expect anything fancy," I say.
"You are a lot like your mother," Set tells me. "She was a little nicer and a little less sarcastic."
"Don't bring her up," I say. "You lost that right when you killed her."
Set looks at me. "I did what had to be done." He tells me. "It was to get revenge on Julius."
"Because he actually had the courage to ask the girl he liked to a dance before you did." I say.
"Because he stole her from me!" Set yells. "He forced me to stay away from her! I had to give them my distance! Ruby was taken from me!" He slams his fist on the desk. I jump. He calms down. "Anyway, I've had some of my people make a bigger and nicer room for you. It also has a few things that you can stay busy. It's probably been pretty boring in the previous room."
"I'd rather be in the previous room then in any room with you," I say.
He ignores my comment. "Guards, would you take Sadie to her new room."
I wait for the guards then I follow them out. There were two in front of me and two behind me. Set had made sure there were enough so that I couldn't escape as easily as before. We stop at a door. One of the guards open it. I walk through. The room was twice the size of the other room. It had four walls all painted red. Along the back wall away from the door was a king size canopy bed. The wood was a dark almost black color. There were red curtains tied back hanging down from it with matching red sheets and comforter. In front of the bed was a little bench. Off to the left was a small table and chair closer to the door. Then there was a desk with some books, notebooks, pens, and pencils. On the other side of the bed was a dresser and tv with a couch in front of it. It was a nice room but it still did not have any windows. I wondered what the outside of the building looked like. It seems like the building doesn't have any windows except for Set's office. I watch the guards as they leave the room. I look around. I guess if Set was going to kill me soon he wouldn't have gone through all of this effort to make this room. I'm guessing I'm going to be here for a while.
Set's POV
"Markus," I call. Markus was my second in command.
Markus comes into the room. "Set," He says. "Can I help you?"
"Send up Shane," I say. "I'd like to ask him a few questions."
"Yes sir," Markus says. He leaves the room.
I fold my arms behind me and walk around. I look at a picture of Ruby that I had. She was around the age of 13 sitting on the swings in the park. I was sitting next to her and we were laughing. I remembered that day.
**Flashback**
"Why do you have to take pictures of us Elizabeth?" I asked. Elizabeth was my brother's girlfriend.
"It's for my photography club," Elizabeth said. "I need a picture of best friends together. You two are always hanging out here."
"I think it'll be fun Set," Ruby looked at me.
"Fine," I said. "I'm not going to like it."
Ruby makes jokes to make me laugh. I eventually forget that Elizabeth was there.
"I think I got some great photos," Elizabeth said. "Thank you. I'll bring you each a copy."
"Bye Lizzie," Ruby called.
"Bye," She called back. I watch as she goes into the house to see Osiris.
**End**
"Set," Markus says. I turn my attention to him. "Ready for Shane?"
"Yes," I say. "Send him in please."
Markus nods and leaves. I hear footsteps. "You wanted to see me sir?"
"Yes," I say. "Have a seat."
I turn and watch him sit down.
"I heard that you've been compromised," I say
"I did," Shane says. "Horus figured it out. He caught me on the phone with Markus."
"Horus Matthews?" I ask
"Yes," Shane answers.
"Did you learn anything before you were discovered?" I say "Anything about Anubis?"
"No," Shane says. "Last time I was there Anubis was in a coma."
"Alright," I say.
"Anything else?" Shane says.
"I'm giving you one more chance," I say. "Do not mess this one up. If you do you will end up with the same fate as Sadie Kane. You will be killed."
"Yes sir," Shane says.
I stand and wait for I'm to leave. Once he is gone I call back Markus. I wait for him to come into the room. "I need the other agent that is working undercover. See if you can get him to come in."
"Yes sir," Markus says then leaves the room.
I sit at my desk. I look at the camera that was set up to watch Sadie's room. She was walking back and forth. She reminded me a lot of Ruby. I knew killing her was the only way to get revenge on Julius Kane. To take away anything that reminded him of Ruby.
Sadie's POV
As I walked back and forth in my room I thought about Anubis. This whole time he lied to me about his father. His father was Set. I remember Carter telling me that dad did not like Anubis. Did they know too? I'm not mad that Anubis lied. Set has destroyed everything that Anubis has ever loved. I see why Anubis didn't tell me. He just didn't want me to think that he was bad just because his father was. I trusted Anubis. He has saved my life and I have saved his. I thought about what he would think when he wakes up from his coma. He wouldn't remember anything but the crash. He wouldn't know what had happened to me. I wanted to find away out to go to him to see him. I missed Anubis more than anything else. I can't stop thinking about him. I think I am in love with Anubis. I take a marker and I put four lines on the door. Four days since I was trapped.
Here's the next chapter for you. Let me know what you think!
