At the breakfast table, Calliope glanced at Silas, words hanging on the tip of her tongue.
“If you’ve got something to say, just say it. I don’t bite,” Silas remarked, his eyes lifting slightly with a hint of mischief. “Treat me like you would anyone else.”
“It’s not that I’m afraid of you…” Calliope raised her head. “It’s just- I’m not quite used to it yet.”
“You’ll get used to it in time,” Silas assured her. “Let’s have breakfast first. Afterward, I’ll introduce you to a few people.”
“Okay,” Calliope mumbled, focusing on her breakfast of pancakes and maple syrup.
Silas watched her with a gentle patience, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He would help her adjust. Slowly but surely, she would come to know him better. This time, he wouldn’t let her slip away.
After breakfast, Calliope was led out to the courtyard outside the main house. To her surprise, she found a group of people already gathered there.
“Morning, ma’am!”
Calliope froze. She had heard whispers about the people who resided in Myers Manor- expert hackers, lethal martial artists, and fiercely loyal subordinates who had been with Silas for years.
She had assumed these people were part of Silas’s secret world, and she never expected him to introduce her to them so openly.
“Go ahead, introduce yourselves to the lady,” Silas instructed, his gaze sweeping over the assembled group.
“Good day, ma’am. I’m Damien, head of security. These men behind me make up our bodyguard team,” Damien spoke up first.
Calliope’s gaze flicked to the squad standing at attention, each one looked battle-hardened, their presence exuding raw capability.
“Damien is a former world martial arts champion,” Silas added. “His combat skills and marksmanship are second to none. He oversees the security of Myers Manor and ensures my safety. All the bodyguards are under his command. If you need anything, just let him know.”

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
