A God's Obsession
"You woke me up," a cold voice echoed from the shadows.
Ivana gasped awake, heart pounding, unsure if it was a dream—or something far more dangerous.
~~~~~~~~~~
Years ago, Ivana should have died in her mother’s womb—until a mysterious seer performed a forbidden ritual to save her.
The price? The unborn child had to be betrothed to a god, bound to him for life without her parents ever knowing the true cost.
On Ivana’s eighteenth birthday, her parents mysteriously vanished without a trace, leaving behind only a notebook filled with strange symbols and cryptic warnings.
Now, years later, her search for answers leads her to Egypt, where she joins an archaeological team investigating a newly uncovered chamber. Deep inside, they break a seal that should have remained untouched… and awaken the very god she was promised to.
A god who despises humans.
With divine wrath rising, ancient secrets unraveling, and a bond she never asked for tightening around her fate, Ivana must confront the truth:
The answers to her parents’ disappearance begin with the god she was forced to belong to.

Chapter: Chapter 6:Bound by FateIvana felt her knees hit the cold stone floor.Pain shot up her legs as gasped for air. The chill of the temple made her shiver, but it was nothing compared to the fear tightening her chest.He circled her slowly, deliberately—like a predator savoring the moment before the kill. Each step echoed, measured and calm, while golden eyes burned into her with something far worse than anger. Curiosity. Fury. Disgust.“So,” he drawled, stopping in front of her, his voice dark with amusement. “You are the so-called bride.” His lips curved into a cruel smile. “What is your name?”“I-Ivana,” she answered, her voice trembling. Confusion written all over her face, as she frowned up at him. “What bride… sir?”A low chuckle rumbled from his chest. “You don’t know?”He replied,unamused . “That makes this far more interesting.”“No—no, sir!” She hurriedly shook her head in panic thinking he’s calling her his bride because of the ring. “If this is about the ring, I came to return it. My friend took it

Chapter: Chapter 5: Back to the tomb"Guys, so what do we do about Emily? It's been eight hours and she's still not waking up," Eric muttered, his jaw ticking."We'll have to wait till tomorrow. If she doesn't wake up, then we'll figure out what to do," Caleb replied, his voice low, though the worry in his eyes betrayed his calm tone.The fire burned low as silence settled among them. One by one, exhaustion pulled them under—Eric slumped against his pack, Caleb stretched out by the dying flames, and Ivana kept her eyes on the tent until sleep finally claimed her.Once again she found herself in the ruins of the temple,from the shadows, he emerged—the bronze-skinned man with golden eyes that glowed like molten fire.He stepped closer, his gaze never leaving hers. "You don't belong here," his voice rumbled, deep and commanding, and full of resentment. "But you've woken me… and now you must face the consequence."Ivana's chest tightened as he looked over her,his gaze like a predator observing a prey."Come to the tomb," he

Chapter: Chapter 4: Desert eyesThe trio rushed to the Jeep to check if she was fine. "Ivana, Ivana" Eric called softly, tapping her gently on the shoulder. "She's fine, just unconscious," Caleb replied, a wave of relief washing over him. "But how did she get in the Jeep?" Emily asked,voicing the question that hung unanswered in everyone's mind. "We'll have to wait till she wakes up" Caleb said, his gaze shifting to Emily."Emily" he said horrified as he took in her condition.Blood trickled from her ears and nose and rashes oozed across every inch of her skin. "What the hell Em are you sure this is just allergies?" Eric demanded, stunned. "Oh my God…" she whispered as realization struck "The ring—" she added and then blacked out. "Oh great now we have to deal with two unconscious women" Eric sighed as they carefully picked and put her in the Jeep next to Ivana. "You heard her say the ring right!?" Caleb questioned. "Yes… don't tell me…" Eric didn't dare complete her sentence. "If she really took anything

Chapter: Chapter 3:Save YourselfIvana jerked awake, sweat slicking her skin, heart pounding. The room was dark, quiet, and empty—but the words lingered in her mind.Early in the morning,the hotel lobby buzzed with early activity. Ivana, Caleb, and Eric huddled around a small table, maps and notebooks spread before them."We need to plan our next site carefully," Caleb said, tracing a route along the map.From the staircase above, Emily descended, tugging at the sleeves of her sweater. "Morning," she said, voice tight. She lowered her arms, revealing red, angry rashes spreading across her forearms."Emily… what happened?" Ivana asked, alarmed."Ah… allergies," Emily said quickly, pulling her sleeves back down. "Desert dust, probably."Before anyone could respond, a loud crash echoed from the lobby ceiling—a decorative chandelier swayed, then plummeted toward the floor.The team screamed in unison, diving for cover. Caleb grabbed a table to shield himself; Eric pushed Emily behind a sofa; Ivana ducked just as the chan

Chapter: Chapter 2: The Awakening"Eric, you're overreacting," Emily rolled her eyes."It's… bigger than I imagined," Caleb whispered, his voice swallowed by the thick, stifling air."Bigger, yes. And hotter," Eric muttered, swiping sweat from his brow. His eyes darted across the Ka statues, the walls, the shadows that seemed to pulse with aevery flicker of lantern light."Caleb, you said this is the tomb of a king?" Ivana asked, glancing at him."Guys, have a look at this. I think Caleb was right," Emily said, letting her lantern sweep over golden chariots, ceremonial furniture, and treasures stacked as if for an eternal journey."These were buried with a king to take into the afterlife," Caleb explained calmly."Great… but where's the body?" Eric asked."Hidden, of course," Caleb chuckled."Let's look around," Ivana suggested. "There should be a hidden mechanism."They began to search, their footsteps echoing across the stone. While the others scanned the walls, Emily's fingers brushed over a sapphire ring lying loo

Chapter: Chapter 1: Bethrothed to a God The shrine smelled of incense and dust. Candles flickered against cracked stone walls as a cloaked woman studied the couple before her."You Americans don't believe in these things," the seer said, her voice low, filled with mockery. "So why come to my shrine?"The woman's hand pressed against her swollen belly, her eyes filled with fear. "We came to Egypt for research. But the child in my womb… she's unstable. I can feel her slipping away. I don't want to lose her."The husband gripped his wife's shoulder. "They said you could help."The seer tilted her head, ancient eyes glinting. "Help always comes with a price. Your daughter's life is fragile. To keep her in this world, she must be tied to another.""What do you mean by tied?" the husband asked.The seer's lips curved faintly. "Promised as a bride. Not to man, but to god."The mother's breath caught. "A bride?""But she's just a baby,is that the only way to save her" the husband frowned."That is the only way to save her, you can
