When Calliope woke up the next morning, she found herself nestled snugly in Silas's arms.
She recalled that she'd been having nightmares, and it seemed like someone had held her, calming her down significantly.
It must have been Silas who returned to the room and wrapped his arms around her.
Calliope felt a mix of gratitude and awkwardness. They were practically glued to each other, and she was acutely aware of the heat radiating from his body and his response to their closeness.
Even though she had never been intimate with anyone before, she knew what the reaction meant for a man.
She tried to shift away slightly, but in doing so, she seemed to have brushed against him more.
"Don't move," Silas said, his voice thick and rough, as he held her tightly, their bodies pressed together.
Calliope realized she had never seen Silas show interest in any other woman. A normal adult man must have certain needs, she supposed.
She had considered this when they made their agreement, and had said that during their marriage, they could live as a normal couple.
She had assumed Silas wouldn't make any advances. But now, she wasn't so sure.
They were married now, and it seemed only natural. If Silas wanted to release his desires, she felt she ought to oblige.
Still, she wasn't mentally prepared for this. After all, she had always thought of him as an uncle to her.
Sleeping together like this was one thing, but being completely open with each other brought a level of awkwardness and embarrassment she couldn't quite shake.
Though Calliope obediently stayed still, she couldn't help but wiggle slightly.
The heat was overwhelming. She felt both shy and flustered.
Silas's heart pounded harder with her little movements, and he was finding it difficult to hold back. But he could sense she was avoiding him. She was scared.
Of course, she liked Gideon that much. How could she suddenly accept another man so quickly?

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?...
