"Ghosts!"
"Oh my God, that was terrifying!"
"I thought I was gonna die!"
"So many ghosts!"
Calliope was at loss for words. She had seen timid people before, but these guys? This was next level.
She exchanged a look with Baber, both of them utterly speechless.
It was a haunted house - one designed for kids, no less. There wasn’t a single actually scary thing inside. And yet, these four highly trained bodyguards had been reduced to trembling puddles of fear.
Who would’ve thought? These guys, built like linebackers, scared down to the height of a toddler. Even after they exited the haunted house, the bodyguards still looked shaken.
But Calliope hadn’t expected what came next.
Waiting just outside was the Jewells.
Horatio was, as always, seated in his wheelchair, but this time, Ulysses, Valerian, and Lisette were all with him. It seemed like they had been waiting for her.
Calliope’s first instinct was to pretend she didn’t know them and just keep walking. But Horatio called out, "Callie! I need to ask you something. Can we talk?"
"Can’t you see we’re busy?" Baber shot back, glaring at them in exasperation. "My mommy doesn’t have time to chat with you! Mommy, let’s go ride the pirate ship next! That one looks fun!"
Calliope nodded. "Sounds good to me."
"Calliope, don’t you know that Mr. Baber Thorne isn’t in the best health? You took him into a haunted house, and now you want to put him on a pirate ship? Are you trying to kill him?" Ulysses accused grumpily.
Baber immediately stepped in front of Calliope, his little face scrunching up in irritation. "My health is none of your business! I wanted to go in the haunted house! I want to ride the pirate ship! My mommy doesn’t need to be scolded by you!"

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 !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
