Author:
Bárbara A. Insfrán B. is from a small city in Paraguay, Latin America, where she lives with her family and works part-time as an educator. She dedicates her free time to writing about the intriguing fictional world she has created; where she blends mysticism with eroticism and romance. She writes in English and her native Spanish, although most of her books are written in English. She loves to sit down and write without much planned, since her stories take shape on their own in front of her as she types them.

Her name is Caliope, and when she was a young girl, she never believed in happy endings. For her, there was nothing more than what you see in front of you. All she needed was her best friend Vanessa.

Her background is very simple; a foster child with foster parents that were everything but warm and caring. Regardless of that, she became a smart and responsible young woman, ready for whatever came her way. At least that is what she thought.

Her new job interview changed her life. It changed everything she ever believed in, and what she thought it was real. Her new boss is an amazing woman who has a son, something different from what he is made out to be.

As she discovers the hidden truth about her boss and her son, she has to prepare herself for a whole new world that will unfold to her.

The Awakening

"Hurry! You don't want to miss this!" Elaine said excited as she rushed through the stairs that led them all to the rooftop.


It was a place staged to be a heliport, the perfect area for what was to come. Elaine was the first one to be outside; the Meng twins were already there, though. Everyone followed and saw the sunrise in its full glory.


When Elaine earlier started talking through a speaker, she brought everyone to the center living room area, and invited them all to follow her to the roof. She didn't explain more, but all knew it was something worth it if Elaine was excited.


The sun rising gave them all a wonderful sight of the colorful view; everywhere the sun touched became alive. Then at the distance, a mass of some sort started to approach them. Caliope squeezed her eyes trying to decipher what it was.


"No darling, that is what I brought you to see." Elaine replied with a smile, leaving everything in suspense.
