Fuck, I must have made him relive the moment.No wonder he had problems with the scene. He hadn't thought about it then, but now things made sense. Star stayed at a distance from Sundi Noxx the night Anubis had the cast meet.Dammit, it seems like I keep putting him in danger.
“I'm sorry,” he said in a hoarse voice.
“Why are you apologizing?” Star raised his gaze, and their eyes connected.
“I wouldn't have written that scene forThe Traveler.”
“You already apologized for that. I don't hold it against you.”
“But it shouldn't have happened.”
“As much as I had problems working through that day, I can't deny it was a good scene. You didn't hurt me. You helped me in some regards. It made me realize I had to let go of some of the anger I had been holding on to. I could accept what I did in my past and move on with my future. Thank you, Anubis.”
Star leaned up and kissed him deeply. Anubis moaned, sweeping his tongue into his mouth, loving Star's sweetness. They slowly separated, and their eyes locked.
“I don't ever want you to feel that kind of pain again,” Anubis told him.
“Being with you, I won't. And I promise from now on, if I see you with a beautiful woman or a handsome man, I won't get jealous and make assumptions. I'll attack first and ask questions later.”
Anubis smiled and shook his head. “How can I look at anyone else when I always have my eyes on you?”
“When was the first time you noticed me?” Star inquired.
Anubis didn't need to think. “At the restaurant, De la Lune Noire.” Star gasped, then sat up, staring at Anubis. “You had your head down, but your hair caught my attention. Then your lips.” He pecked Star on the corner of his mouth, then leaned back. “I couldn't stop thinking about you from then on. And when I saw you at the audition, I knew I would break a moral code and hire you no matter how good or bad your acting was. How about you?”
“It was also at De la Lune Noire.” Star smiled. “I was immediately attracted to your cocksure attitude when you walked in and knew that all eyes were on you. Then when we were at the audition, I realized you weren't pretending to be cocky. It's who you are. But you're also a nice guy.”
“How can you tell?”
He touched Anubis's face close to his eyes. “They say the eyes mirror a person's soul, and when I look into yours, I feel like I'm lost in a sea of gold, but I know that you will find me.”
Anubis cupped the back of his head, leaning in to kiss him. “Always,” he said when they separated their lips. Star moaned, grinding his ass on the cock that was showing a lot of interest from their kisses. Anubis hadn’t planned on taking their kisses so far, but it was hard when his forever one was so damn sexy. He dragged his mouth down to the curvature of Star's neck, finding a sweet spot and sucking up a mark. Star groaned, running his fingers through Anubis's hair.
“Anubis,” Star gasped.
“Mmm...I love how you say my name.” His voice was deep, not hiding his arousal. “Say it again.”
“Anubis,” he groaned. “I need to ask you something.”
“What's that, love?” Anubis kissed Star's ear.
“It's about Anput.”
“Yeah, what about her?”
“Did you love her?”
Anubis paused what he was doing and raised his head, looking at Star. “Do we need to talk about that now?”
Star pushed Anubis back gently. “Yes. It's going to bug me now that I know about Kebechet.”
Anubis groaned and flopped back on the couch. “Are you sure you want to hear about this?”
“Yes.”
Anubis stared into Star's eyes. “Okay. But it's not as melodramatic as you might think.”
“I still want to know.”
