A/N ok I have been a horrible human for not updating but I have had a lot going on. But I've finished all my finals and I can start writing again. I was surprised to hear that my Gods of Egypt story was so well liked by someone that it warranted a sequel in their opinion so I am working on that as well. Now on with the story also I stated Ivory can speak other languages, I'm too lazy to translate so

Ivory's pov
Ben pulled us through the crowded streets of what looked like an outdoor market. I smiled and inhaled the aromatic spices. Irina kept pace with us as we maneuvered through the crowd.
"You are going to love your time here lotus." He exclaimed.
"I know I will Ben." I laughed. As soon as we made it to his place Tia had wrapped her arms around me. We both squealed happily as we held each other.
"Oh you look so beautiful flower." She smiled softly as she brushed my hair out of my face. Ben chuckled as he placed a hand on his mates shoulder.
"I should warn you my love, somehow Karma snuck into dear Ivory's bag." He told her. She merely brushed him off.
"Oh how was your flight? I set up your room, I do hope you like it." She exclaimed gleefully.
"I'm sure it's beautiful Tia." I told her. I took a moment to examine the beautiful house I was in and I smiled, I would indeed enjoy my time here.
"What would you like to do first lotus?" Ben questioned.
"Well I have heard great things about the Khan el-Khalili." I mumbled thoughtfully.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"No!" I heard the exclamations vary. I chuckled at Ben's reaction.
"I have taught you well my lovely niece." Aunt Irina hugged me.
"You women and your shopping." Ben groaned.
"You don't have to come with us." Tia told him.
"Thank god!" He flopped down on the couch.
"Ok here's an idea, I'll go shopping with Tia and Aunt Irina today and Ben and I can check ou the pyramids tomorrow, and we can all go to the museum Thursday." I reasoned.
"Sounds lovely lotus." Ben hugged me. I laughed and grabbed my stuff. I gave Ben one last hug and then we left.

Time skip

The three of us laughed as we made our way through the bustling streets of the Khan el-Khalili. I inhaled the scents of exotic spices and flowers. Brightly colored fabrics caught my eye and shouts and laughter echoed around us. Flashes of gold and silver glinted in the sunlight.
"Coffee or tea?" Tia pointed to a cafe called El Fishawy. I nodded excitedly. So we stopped and had a quick coffee break, then we went in our way. Tia explained how if you went deeper into the market you'd find local handcrafted items. We made our way to the gold and silver shops. We examined the beautiful jewelry and unique alabaster and obsidian statues of the old gods. Tia smiled as she held up a stunning dress and a matching necklace

"Oh yes!" She held the dress up to me. I gasped at its beauty.
"Oh it's beautiful Tia but I couldn't." I shook my head.
"You can and you will! You'll look beautiful." She insisted. I gave in as there was no way out of this.
"So what did you guys find?" Aunt Irina asked as she walked up to us. I inclined my head to Tia and the dress.
"That is what we found." I explained.
"Definitely." She nodded her approval. I rolled my eyes and made my way over to the statues admiring the beautiful stone work.
"Ready to go flower?" Tia called.
"Oh yes!"
