Chapter 159

Calliope watched as Silas's face shifted, and she hurried to explain. "No, I'm not interested in him anymore. It is because I'm used to..."

Whenever she saw Silas, she'd instinctively see him as Gideon's uncle. Maybe it was from all those times she'd chased after Gideon and got used to it. She always forgot to correct herself.

"Uncle' is what he calls me. You're not his woman, so remember it.""

Calliope nodded, looking up at Silas with wide, hopeful eyes. Her bright, deep eyes and pretty face, tinged with a slight blush, made it hard for anyone to resist her.
