7 Chapter 17 At the breakfast table , Calliope glanced at Silas , words hanging on the tip of her tongue .
If youve got something to say , just say it .
I dont bite , Silas remarked , his eyes lifting slightly with a hint of mischief .
Treat me like you would anyone else .
Its not that Im afraid of you … Calliope raised her head .

Youll get used to it in time , Silas assured her .

Afterward , Ill introduce you to a few people .

He would help her adjust .
Slowly but surely , she would come to know him better .
This time , he wouldnt let her slip away .
After breakfast , Calliope was led out to the courtyard outside the main house .
To her surprise , she found a group of people already gathered there .
Morning , maam ! Calliope froze .
She had heard whispers about the people who resided in Myers Manor- expert hackers , lethal martial artists , and fiercely loyal subordinates who had been with Silas for years .
She had assumed these people were part of Silass secret world , and she never expected him to introduce her to them so openly .
Go ahead , introduce yourselves to the lady , Silas instructed , his gaze sweeping over the assembled group .
Good day , maam .
Im Damien , head of security .
These men behind me make up our bodyguard team , Damien spoke up first .
Calliopes gaze flicked to the squad standing at attention , each one looked battle hardened , their presence exuding raw capability .

Good day , maam .
Im Galen , a general practitioner .
I can handle most medical concerns you might have .

How could Silas possibly be aware of this ? One by one , Silass team introduced themselves .
They were all top tier experts in their fields .
Calliope didnt mind getting to know them .
She figured there might be opportunities to learn from each other .
After the introductions , they exchanged contact information .
