Chapter 45 Calliope really hadnt planned on taking the stuff Portia had prepared for her .
But Portia was insistent , practically shoving the bag into her hands .
You got this ! I know you can win Silas over ! By the time Calliope returned to the Myers Manor , it was already late .
She carried a shopping bag with a bracelet and a ring shed bought , along with the bag of items Portia had given her .
She had assumed Silas wouldnt be home yet , but as soon as she stepped through the door , she froze .
There was Silas , sitting casually on the couch , one leg crossed over the other , tapping away on his tablet .
At the sound of the door , he looked up , and their eyes met .
Calliopes mind immediately flashed to the items Portia had packed for her a collection of see through outfits , fox tails , condoms , and other … accessories .
Her face turned crimson in an instant .
Images flooded her mind , far too vivid and wildly inappropriate .
She tried desperately to shake off these thoughts , but each glance at Silas made it harder to control .
It didnt help that Silas was impossibly handsome , with his chiseled abs , long legs , and a captivating scent that lingered in the air .
Whats wrong ? he asked , his deep , smooth voice echoed in the air , his gaze carrying a hint of curiosity .
Calliope was like , !!! She was losing her mind ! What on earth was she thinking ? All Portias fault , with her crazy ideas ! If Silas found out she had planned to seduce him with those things , she was sure hed think she had ulterior motives .
Calliope took a deep breath , trying to act nonchalant as she changed her shoes .
Finally , she walked over to where Silas sat .
Youre back .
Yeah , Silas nodded .
Not happy to see me ? Not that ! Calliope quickly explained , Im really glad youre home .
Really glad ? Silas raised an eyebrow , a playful glint in his eyes , You mean it ? Absolutely , Calliope nodded eagerly .

Shed upset him once before , and she wasnt about to do it again.
Men were supposed to be easy to please , she assumed .
As for Portias ideas , well , those were best left untouched .
Using them felt a bit too forward , and she didnt want to give Silas the wrong impression .
If he misunderstood , shed be in serious trouble .
For a moment , a rare smile graced Silass face .
His voice was gentle as he asked , Why so late ? You didnt have Damien or the driver with you ? I went shopping with a friend , Calliope replied , thinking quickly .
I brought you a gift .
I hope you like it .
She handed the bags over to Silas , her eyes sparkling with both anticipation and nerves .
She knew Silas was accustomed to the best of everything , and while her gifts were expensive by normal standards , they might not impress him as much .
Still , she thought these items suited him perfectly .
1/2 09.10 Chapter 45 If she wanted to truly match his tastes , shed probably have to attend an auction or something .
Silas took the bags , looking somewhat surprised , For me ? Yeah .
Calliopes eyes twinkled as she watched him , hoping hed like her choice .
Silas opened the boxes .
One contained a pair of rings , the other a bracelet .
They werent extravagant , but they definitely werent cheap either .
Silas looked a bit taken aback , but he slipped the bracelet on his wrist .
I like it .
