“That’s good to hear,” Damien finally exhaled, relief softening his features. “With you here, Ms. Shepherd’s in good hands.”
With that reassurance, Damien disappeared to take a shower.
Calliope gathered the medications and made her way into Mavis’s hospital room. She started by giving Mavis a pill, then followed up with two quick injections.
Uriah never left Mavis’s side, his gaze filled with worry and tenderness. The sight of her, surrounded by machines and monitors, with fresh needle marks dotting her hand, tore at him. His eyes reddened, but he kept silent, not wanting to interrupt Calliope’s work.
When Calliope finished, she looked Mavis over and frowned.
“How is she?” Uriah ventured, his voice low.
“Her vitals are stable and improving. The infection is receding, her fever’s heading down…” Calliope paused, “But she’s still not waking up.”
Uriah’s anxiety spiked. “Shouldn’t she be conscious by now?”
“In theory, yes. She should have woken up already, but she’s completely unresponsive.” Calliope’s frown deepened. “Have you tried talking to her?”
“I have. I haven’t stopped—anything to try to reach her. But she doesn’t react to me, not at all.”
“She’s far too quiet,” Calliope murmured, troubled. “Something about this doesn’t feel right.”
“So… even you can’t figure out what’s wrong?” Uriah’s uneasiness was growing with every answer. He’d believed that with Calliope here, Mavis would snap out of it—wake up, whole and safe. But now, hours later, she was still lost in unconsciousness, as unreachable as ever.
“I can’t,” Calliope admitted, shaking her head. “This is… complicated.”

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......
