"I wanted to give this to you in person," Anubis said, taking a step closer to the girl who was evidently petrified. He handed her a crisp white envelope that had his name written in a cursive scrawl. With shaky hands, Zaina took the envelope. Not knowing what to do, she performed an awkward curtsy which was met with a hearty laugh from the god. He lifted her chin with a finger and grinned that heart-stopping grin once more. Anubis trailed the finger up her jaw and laid it beneath her ear. "I'll see you around," he whispered, ghosting his lips over the shell of her ear. He stood up and walked away as though he had not made a long lasting impact on the young girl before him. After taking a few breaths to calm herself, Zaina opened the envelope.

Thea, an archeologist intern from a British museum in London, but also a fish out of water amongst the gilded elite at an opulent Egyptian-themed party, only agreed to attend to appease her social butterfly best friend. The whispered ancient secrets across the walls of the mansion is a dream come true for her but masked between Nefertitis and Ramseses, she seeks refuge in a quieter wing of the estate, only to stumble upon a hidden sanctuary overflowing with ancient artifacts, a dimly lit spacious space filled with ancient relics and silent statues that seem to watch her every move. Not meaning to, she overhears a chilling plot of revenge orchestrated by the masked figure. The speaker, masked as the imposing god Anubis, is clearly the mastermind. Catching her eavesdropping behind one of the statues, the only thought is that she will get killed but he proposes an unusual bargain - a kiss, to ensure her silence, to bind her to his secret. But as he pulls her closer, his touch sending shivers down her spine despite the danger, Thea senses this is more than just about keeping her quiet. She knows that a kiss in a situation like this is never just a kiss. Anubis, clearly doesn't mind that she's an outsider because there's no way he will let her go, knowing his secrets. Only way to do that is to keep her close, in any way possible. That means, stalk her to the very detail.
