Silas said, “It’s not healthy, you know. Animals are just like people, if they get too chubby, they can get sick.”
Eamon blinked. “Really? I thought a little extra fluff was a good thing?”
Silas shook his head. “Being skinny isn’t good, but being too fat is even worse. Million’s been hanging out with you a lot lately, looks like he’s not getting enough exercise, and maybe you’re sneaking him too many treats.”
He frowned, a little more serious now. “It can actually shorten his life.”
“Wait, seriously?” Eamon glanced over his shoulder, then quickly snatched the drumstick out of Million’s paws.
Million, mid-chomp, froze in disbelief. His big black eyes stared up at Eamon, utterly bewildered. He clearly couldn’t understand why his precious chicken leg had just been swiped. I mean, he’d already eaten so much today. Wouldn’t one more drumstick be fine?
“Woof?” Million tried to protest, letting out a little yip.
“You’re practically a furry soccer ball at this point, buddy. You really can’t eat any more, or you’ll just puff up even more,” Eamon scolded gently.
Calliope crossed her arms, raising an eyebrow. “Million, you seriously need some exercise. You’re probably as out of shape as Eamon’s old armchair.”
Million just let out a long sigh.
“Really, look at that belly, round as a pumpkin,” Calliope added, chuckling. She’d never expected Eamon to have such a knack for spoiling pets.
Million hadn’t always looked pudgy. He just had long fur, so he always looked a bit round, but was actually a healthy weight. Ever since he started sticking close to Eamon, though, Calliope was convinced Million had gotten chunky for real.
All that fluff hid a lot, but when he got wet, it was clear he’d turned into a little butterball. The way his white fur shone only made him look more plump.
Million tried to look down at his own belly, maybe to check the damage, but he couldn’t really see over his own fluff. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts, he just looked defeated.

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 !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
