Description

Elisa dropped the pen she was holding and turned around slowly. In front of her was one of the most beautiful men she had ever seen. His eyes and hair were dark and he was dressed in the style of the ancient Egyptians—a linen kilt with metal armbands and a collar where she could clearly make out lapis and carnelian. She glanced at the body of the mummy and then at the figure in front of her. Even in death, the features were unmistakable.

Elisa felt her heart racing and her mouth go dry. All of the blood drained from her face and left a cold tingling behind. It was jet lag. Had she eaten today? Maybe she'd fallen asleep while she was reading. She'd always had an overactive imagination.
Her mouth moved, but no sound came out. The figure in front of her watched all of this without comment but suddenly he smiled. "Hello."

And Dr. Elisa Kent fainted for the first time in her life.
