"Baber is a smart kid. He wouldn’t just wander off."

Calliope frowned, pulling out her phone to call Baber.

No answer.

Her stomach twisted. Then she remembered— She had seen Horatio and the others earlier, but not Lisette.

Could it be her?

Given Lisette’s personality, it was entirely possible.

"Split up and keep looking. Check if the park has security cameras. See if we can get footage of the last places we passed."

With that, she turned on her heel and marched off to find Horatio and his group.

"Why are you back? Had a change of heart?" Valerian asked the moment she spotted Calliope.

"Where’s Lisette?"

She scanned their faces. "Where is she?"

"Why do you ask for her? You’re not about to start picking on Lisette again, are you?” Ulysses exclaimed, his voice laced with dissatisfaction. “You’ve got it out for her or something?"

Calliope stepped forward, locking eyes with him. "I’m asking you, where is she? Did she take Baber?"

Valerian’s brows furrowed. "The kid is missing?"

"Where is Lisette?" Calliope asked again.

Upton’s gaze, bone-chilling, flicked to Lisette.

Calliope strode over at Lisette, each step menacing.

"Lisette, I gave you a chance. And you don’t want it, forget it then."

"What are you doing?"

“Teach you a lesson!”

Calliope grabbed a fistful of Lisette’s hair and yanked, before landing a sharp, stinging slap across her face.

Lisette shrieked in pain, eyes wide with shock as she glared at Calliope. "Calliope, are you freaking insane?!"
