Page 13 of Dig Your Grave

Anubis knew entirely too much.

Out of breath, I asked, “What’s next, my ears?”

“No,” he almost growled, turning me over to my knees.“Luckily for you, it’s just the fun ones.”

I thought the worst was over.But Anubis knocked at my back door, the head of his dick pressing against it urgently.It was still hard.He was insatiable.

“Please, please, be gentle,” I begged him, my face in the cold dirt, my ass in the air.

I felt him bend down.His breath hit my pussy before he licked my ass crack.Wiggling his tongue, he made my pussy drip again.When he’d slobbered all over my puckered hole, he came back up and stuck a finger inside.

Holy shit.It felt too good.

“I thought this was supposed to hurt me?”

“My pinky,” he explained.

His pinky felt ginormous.

“Don’t worry, it’s going to hurt like hell.I’m just enjoying myself,” he breathed.

Bracing myself, I had to let him in.And he wasn’t kidding.Once he started, it hurt like hell.But this time, I was involved, feeling everything.No running away.Anubis awarded me by reaching around and petting my clit.Not being able to take anymore, I cried out, clutching the dirt as I came again.

Finally, lying on top of him, I snuggled against his hard body, exhausted.His breath came heavy, and I realized he was asleep.In the pitch black, six feet under, I really had nowhere to run.I laid awake thinking of everything.Everything that happened.Everything, Anubis said.At some point, sleep took me.And then sunlight streaming into the grave woke me.Just as he said, robed men lowered a contraption to help us out of the hole.They handed me a robe but then made me open it as they inspected me.After one look, they were satisfied.Glancing down, I discovered why.Blood streaked my legs.

Anubis took me back to the Boat House to get cleaned up.Even though I felt like I had been beaten, I showered and put on the clothes he offered.I laid down on his bed while he showered.I must’ve fallen asleep because the next thing I knew, it was dark outside.The bad guy lay next to me, looking so sweet.For a moment, I imagined he was.But that was a lie.I had to leave.Not just the Boat House, but Edenvane all together.As if my thought summoned him from sleep, Anubis grabbed my wrist.

“You can’t leave, Nubia.”

“I can’t stay either,” I said, feeling it deep down.I could disappear.Fuck this college.

“Go back to your dorm.Don’t even think about leaving Edenvane.They’ll float you.They’ll float me, too.”

While nodding, I accepted my fate.After everything, the good, bad, and ugly, I didn’t want him to die.

“Meet me after class tomorrow.”

“Okay, what’s up?More holes to fill?”I felt like a hoe.Not like his… casket?That was fuckin absurd.Weird to the fucking max.

“We’re being initiated.We have to prove ourselves.”

“To whom?Won’t you be king of this shit?”I asked, throwing my hands in the air.

“To Mrs.Mence’s Daughter, Sophie.She’s initiating this year.She wants to be my queen at the end of all this.”

Remembering how she looked at him, I bet she did.

“She wants you to fail me.”

“I thought your mate in this has to be a nobody because you’re such a big somebody.”Asshole more like it.

“Yeah, but I can trade you in after we make it through this alive, like a used car.So, she won’t make it easy on us.She’ll want to humiliate you and use me to do it.You have to be strong, Nubia.”

Bowing my head, I took a deep breath.

Anubis was in front of me, raising my chin.“We can do this,” he said, his voice strained with too many emotions.“Us, you and me.All that shit I said about you being nothing was bullshit.You wouldn’t have me when I was sweet to you.”

I punched his chest.
