Yara had just opened and closed the tiger's cage swiftly.
The guests, who had initially scattered, gathered around, drawn by the unfolding spectacle. The evening breeze was chilly, but no one seemed to notice as their focus was entirely on Calliope, each secretly holding their breath for her.
The initial skepticism about Calliope's ability to handle the situation had shifted. Many were now in awe, convinced that a mere tiger was no match for her. Yet, there were still whispers of doubt, some arguing that a tiger's ferocity surpassed an alligator’s, making it impossible for a woman like Calliope to handle.
"Do you think she'll get eaten by the tiger?" someone murmured.
"I doubt it," another replied, though uncertainty tinged their voice.
"It's terrifying. There’s no doubt about that, but you must admit Calliope has guts!"
"It's like Beauty and the Beast, but does the Beast even understand Beauty?"
"If she pulls this off, she's fearless. If not, well, she's just plain crazy."
The crowd buzzed with chatter. Some were snapping pictures, others were updating their social media, and a few were even live-streaming the unfolding drama.
Amidst the cacophony, Calliope remained surprisingly calm. She had entered the tiger's cage, her demeanor as composed as ever when approaching the resting beast.
Disturbed by the noise, the tiger glanced around irritably before locking eyes with Calliope. It seemed confused, sensing a stranger's presence in its domain. With an irritated growl, the tiger directed its displeasure at Calliope.
The crowd instinctively stepped back, maintaining a safe distance from the cage. But Calliope stood her ground, her gaze steady as she met the tiger's eyes.
"Did she call a tiger 'Kitty'? If the king of the jungle understood that, it might just lose its mind!"
"Is she joking, or is she trying to mess with the tiger?"
"She's done for, mark my words."
"She'll meet a grisly end!"
The spectators believed Calliope had sealed her fate. Instead of playing it safe by staying near the door and keeping still, she had dared to address the tiger as if it were a house pet.
It was like addressing a formidable warrior as "sweetie" and inviting them for a head pat.

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 !!!...
