Chereads / My mortal consort / Chapter 12 - Aposis

Chapter 12 - Aposis

*Nessy's mansion*

Geb paced back and forth in Nessy's room still not able to wrap his head around what happened earlier. He had laid Nessy on her bed and tucked her in properly. She was still lifeless. Morsi's aura had a ruthless effect on her it drained alot of her energy and left her lifeless. This action made Geb believe beyond all reasonable doubt that Morsi was more than just the president's son. He was more than just a person with influence or power.

He possessed this dark aura that Geb knew wasn't normal. It only belonged to beings of darkness or rejected gods who's will was taken away by Ra and rejected from god ship.

However, most of these god's don't accept defeat and dwell with mortals. They rather go to the world of darkness and become one of them. Hence, their god aura turning into darkness.

But the only god Geb knew that had this fate was Aposis. Once a god of Egypt but he was rid of his god ship by Ra and rejected by other gods when he failed as a god. He came back to be Ra's biggest foe and Egyptian demon of chaos.

Ra and other gods fought him as well especially him Geb. Aposis had the form of a serpent in his return as a demon and Ra saw Geb as his greatest weapon against him, since he was the father of snakes. Geb stood in front in the battle against Ra and that was the main reason they succeeded.

Apart from Aposis, Geb couldn't think of any one else that can possess such powerful and dark aura. Then it dawned on him 'could it be Aposis, could he have possessed that mortal' he thought, still pacing up and down. 'If really he were the one, why did he want Nessy and what was he doing in this generation, since there were no gods in existence any longer, so why was he still in existence'. Geb was puzzled and frustrated, he needed to find out who Morsi Mubarak was exactly and why he had such aura and power. He doubted that it was Aposis, he couldn't believe. Moreover, if it really was Aposis, then he (Geb) was in deep danger, because he would definitely know that he Geb was in this generation , thats if he doesn't know already and would want to revenge what he did to him in the ancient times.

Geb cursed and looked at Nessy who was calm and still asleep. He regretted his action of letting her handle the situation on her own just because he wanted to test her. The fact that she could have been in great danger if he acted a minute later than he did, made him vulnerable and he hated it. He came closer to where she lay and began stroking her hair. His consort, he was drooling on her gorgeous sight right now she looked breathtaking even while she was sleeping.

As he stared at her, the urge he had before to protect her heightened. He wasn't still sure if he loved her or if it was the lust he felt for Nut, but one thing was certain and that was that Nessy Saadid was his consort and he would do everything to protect her even if it means warring against Aposis again or whoever it was, then he would do it.

*Morsi's mansion *

Morsi walked into his mansion after stepped down from his car. He did not look very happy but he was sure joyed. He went to his room and began to undress, after that, he stood infront of his mirror staring at his own reflection. He stood there for some seconds before finally speaking " what a mortal soul l have consumed, tsk tsk this poor mortal is gone to the abyss atleast his body would serve me well. Thank you so much Mr Morsi Mubarak for being my host in my quest for revenge, you are just perfect for the job" he said with an evil smile on his face.

He made his way to the closet and put on new clothes that fit him perfectly. As he was about to leave the room, he felt the presence of another being within. He swiftly turned around, to meet his trusted servant.

"Urchan" he called with authority.

"Yes my lord" Urchan replied as he bowed before Aposis.

"Why are you here? " Aposis asked with authority.

"My lord, l have come with an answer to the task you gave me " he replied, with his head still bowed.

Aposis thought for few seconds then remembered that he had asked Urchan to find out what Geb was doing in this generation and why he was with Nessy Saadid.

He had sensed the presence of a god in this present Egypt and was very surprised. He was even more surprised when he found out that it was Geb god of earth. He knew that all the gods of the ancient Egypt were no longer in existence. Reason being that they get their power, will and influence on mortals from their honor, praise and sacrifice. Hence, immediately the humans forsook them to serve other gods, they all just vanished and never existed again. 'Poor gods' he thought. As for them beings of darkness, they don't need human recognition atall and their existence lasts forever.

How ever, he wondered why Geb was here and why he was with Nessy Saadid of all mortals.

"Speak " he ordered Urchan.

"My lord, l found out that Geb god of earth and the father of snakes was sent out of his time in the ancient Egypt by his father, air god Shu with the power of the hour glass".

'The hourglass? ' Aposis was disturbed. What could have pushed Shu that far against Geb his own son.

"lntresting and why did he do that? " Aposis asked thoughtfully.

"My lord" Urchan started " it is said that earth god Geb and his sister the sky goddess Nut, had a relationship with each other. And this really affected their father air god Shu. However, it wasn't fully his decision to use the hour glass on his son, but sun god Ra was very appalled and pushed him to do so".

"Interesting " Aposis said as he sat on a couch at one end of the room. "Continue".

"Yes my lord" Urchan bowed before he continued. "The sun god, Ra caused his son the air god to use the hour glass on Geb his own grandson, because the duo hid their affair from him. Hence, he was very angry with them and had to do everything to cut their relationship including causing his son to separate them to this extent ". Urchan answered with his head still bowed down.

"Oh Ra, you still have your ego hung high. You because of your stupid ego, gave up your grandson and greatest instrument against me just to protect your name. Too bad for you, but so good for me, because l now have the chance to have my revenge on you Geb for what you caused me in the past" Aposis soluquized with an evil smile on his face.

"How about Nessy Saadid, did you find out why he was with her? " he suddenly asked Urchan whose eyes were still staring at the floor.

"Yes my lord " he replied.

"So? " Aposis asked with authority.

"It was a mere coincidence that the mortal was at his place of arrival to this generation. The earth god knew nothing about this world, hence he needed the mortal by his side and that's why they are together. He even stays at her abode". Urchan replied.

"A mere coincidence " Aposis said to himself thoughtfully. " You have done well Urchan, you may now take your leave " he said dismissing Urchan who just bowed and disappeared.

Aposis now had a head start. He now knows the reason for Gebs presence in this generation and his business with Nessy Saadid. All he had to do now was to plan his revenge against him and how to make him pay for causing him his victory against Ra during his fight with him. Now he knows how it feels to be rejected by the gods and he was going to use that against him. First, he was going to start by taking Nessy away from him.

Aposis had felt a bond between the two, like he has already convenanted her but he wasn't sure. But there was one thing that he was sure of, and that was his revenge against the earth god , Geb.
