Anubis,
He looked at his father's consort, bewildered. Why did he say those words and why did he feel this unbridled anger consume him?
The mortal woman means nothing to him. He had seen fairer and more desirable ones before.
Aphrodite herself had sought his attention, and he rejected all her advances.
And she was the most beautiful female mankind had ever known.
Then why did his heart flutter when she served him and why, when she gazed at him with those soft eyes, did he want to touch her?
He looked away when Akila frowned at him because he was still confused about his answer.
"Why are you still here? I thought that you already left."
She asked him as she began to stroke her growing belly, and his hands itched to touch it again.
He always felt that the fetus draws him in and he acknowledged him as his older brother.
