Immediately, Tauro’s brow furrowed in alertness! “What are you planning? Let me tell you, the people looking for you have already left, and they won’t be coming back. You’d best not harbor any ill intentions! If you try to escape, you will be driven to madness. You won’t want that, would you?”

The look of fear on Calista’s face intensified! Her starry eyes gazed at him as she voiced her apprehension timidly. “I’m not planning on running away. How about this? Give me something to eat, and let me stretch a bit for now. I’ll let you tie me up again later. My hands have been bound for so long that they’ve gone numb.”

Even a deity would have been moved to compassion if they saw the pitiful look in her eyes. Additionally, all of Tauro’s villagers were outside. Even if he loosened the ropes, he assumed she wouldn’t dare to run. Thus, he agreed.

He pulled out some rather unappetizing bread and pickles from the cupboard, saying with embarrassment, “There isn’t any other food in my home. If you crave meat, I’ll fetch some for you tomorrow. However, life in the mountains is inherently tough, so you’ll have to let go of your old habits and get used to it!”

Calista nodded haphazardly, looking as if she was starving. Tauro had to exert a lot of effort to untie her because whoever had tied her up did a very thorough job. Not only was it tight, but it was also intricately looped from left to right, causing her beautiful hands to swell from the restricted blood flow!

After loosening the ropes, he saw that Calista didn’t move. That relieved him quite a bit as he thought she was properly afraid of him. Even if she were to misbehave again, he believed a few more punishments and a few more children would turn her obedient.

Calista struggled to eat the bread and pickles. It was only then she found herself in a state of nonplussed realization, which was that she really had been spoiled.

In the past, there wasn’t anything she didn’t eat. However, after living with Kallum for two years, eating that kind of plain bread was like swallowing wood shavings, causing her throat to ache. The faint, stale smell was also nauseating. Despite that, she managed to keep a straight face and finished eating it, washing it down with two large cups of water.
