"Callie, come on. It's a tiny favor we're asking for," Horatio pleaded softly, looking at Calliope hopefully. "Help us out, please."
Calliope glanced at Horatio, her expression unreadable. She stayed silent. In her mind, he was just like the rest of them.
"Calliope, our patience is wearing thin!" Valerian snapped, frustration creeping into his voice. "When we ask you nicely, it's best to agree!"
"Or what?" Calliope retorted, raising an eyebrow. "Are you threatening me now?"
Valerian gritted his teeth, glaring at her. Try as he might, there was nothing he could use to corner Calliope.
She wasn’t the same person she used to be. She no longer played nice just to win favor. And she certainly wasn't homeless anymore. The place she lived now made their home look like a shabby motel by comparison.
"Go ahead. Give it a shot." Calliope's voice was calm, her face serene. "I'll be impressed if you can intimidate me."
Ulysses looked sour, not expecting Calliope to be this difficult. With Silas backing her, she seemed untouchable, doing whatever she pleased.
"Calliope, you can't go around acting all high and mighty. Have you ever thought about the consequences?" Ulysses warned. "What if Silas leaves you one day? You think you won't come running back to us? Right now, we're offering you a chance."
"She won't need to," a voice interjected from behind them.
Silas had appeared, entering the room with an air of authority that made everyone else seem insignificant.
His presence was commanding, and he made his way over to Calliope. "Honey, I'm back," he said, his eyes softening as he looked at her.

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 !!!...
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......
