OVERALL!?! - Caliste is a strong, independent, spitfire type of woman. Who she is as a person is mostly based on her what her life was like as a child. Her childhood wasn’t the worst but it wasn’t ideal either and calling it even okay would be a stretch. She had to grow up at a young age and become thick - skinned to survive. The rose - coloured glasses that most young children see the world through were removed from her eyes from early.
She is a survivor having had lived through some of the worst of times. She isn't one to believe that every dark cloud has a silver lining, her attitude to life is more of what will be, will be. She sees a dark cloud as just that, a dark cloud and doesn’t try to make it into anything more or better. As far as she is concerned, bad things happened in life and what you did was accept them and move on.
Cal doesn't take crap from anyone and does not let anyone stand in her way. She goes after what she wants and will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals. She has a strong work ethic and isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty as she believes in the value of hard work. She is a very intelligent young woman and her quick – thinking mind has helped her to get out of some rather nasty situations.
Cal is something of a wild child. She is no stranger to partying and she knows her way around a keg. She is no saint and definitely isn’t innocent; she has even done some things that aren’t exactly horrible but she isn’t proud of them either. It is guaranteed that at least once at some point in the month she will be found at a bar or party or fete. It’s her way of letting loose and relieving any tension and stress that’s in her life.
Callie is a loner. She doesn’t trust people easily, if at all. Her experience has been that trusting people can be a complete and utter waste of time since there is always a good chance that they’ll just take advantage. She doesn’t depend on anyone and never intends to as her independence and self – sufficiency are two of her most treasured possessions. Her relationships have consisted of mostly flings. She has never truly been in what could be called a serious relationship because she won’t let anyone in. She equates letting someone in with making herself vulnerable and she would die before ever letting herself appear let alone actually become weak or vulnerable in anyway.
EYES!?! – Cal has stunning blue eyes like shining sapphires[/size]
HAIR!?! – Pale Golden Blonde
FACE!?! – Caliste is of clear complexion with flawless skin that has a natural glow to it. She has an oval-shaped facial structure which shows off her excellent bone structure. Her nose is defined and slightly upturned, not everyone could carry it off but it fits her face perfectly. Her small, piercing, blue eyes that are shadowed by her long eyelashes also add to her beauty. She also has perfectly arched thin eyebrows. All in all Callie has quite a beautiful face.
BODY!?! – Caliste has a nice, toned, fit body with all the right curves in all the right places. She is one of those people who can eat whatever she wants and yet never get fat. She doesn’t exactly exercise but her nights of partying can be considered to be quite the workout at times.
UNUSUAL!?! - Callie’s belly button is pierced and the only real scar that she has is one on her lower abdomen from when she had her appendix removed.
OVERALL!?! – Caliste is a stunning, young woman. Her flawless skin, slim build complete with long legs that seem to go on for days all help to make her into the hot number that she undoubtedly is. The delicate, porcelain features that she inherited from her mother are reminiscent of those of a china doll giving her a classic type of beauty that is not often seen. Whenever she is out she is sure to turn quite a few heads for men want her and women want to be her.
When it comes to clothes Callie wears what she likes. She has never tried to adhere to what would be considered to be the latest fashion trend and will never do so. She is her own person and adheres to her own sense of style, wearing what she likes and thinks looks good no matter what anybody else says. It can be said that she dresses to accentuate her figure and it can also be said that she dresses to tease for she shows just enough to entice and leave the man’s imagination to run wild as he wonders about the rest.

FINALLY!?! – Jacqueline Marionette and Pierre Castelle met during her first week of College in her first ever business class. He was in his second year and just so happened to be the teaching assistant to one of her Business professors. She didn’t know what it was but from the first time she saw him there was just something about him that drew her in. Two weeks of coy glances and covert looks later she approached him with all intentions of asking him if he would like to have dinner with her but she never got the chance, he beat her to it. It so happened that all this time he had been feeling the same way she had. They met at a quaint, little restaurant that was just off campus and had the most marvellous time, everything was perfect. Later that night when they returned the two shared their first kiss and so their relationship began.
Jackie was just about to enter her Senior Year and Pierre had begun his internship at a multi-million-dollar corporation with all intentions of climbing his way up the ranks. Their relationship was still going strong after 2 ½ years and it seemed like if it was going to stand test the time. Unfortunately, life rarely adheres to our expectations or wants. It is true that people should be wary when everything seems to be going well for tragedy is most likely right around the corner. She was approaching the end of her first semester when her father who was back in the States with her father became seriously ill. She had no choice but to return to the States to help her mother. Jackie took a leave of absence from school and both she and Pierre agreed that the right thing to do would be to end the relationship. She had no idea when she would be returning to Paris and Pierre had just began to climb the corporate ladder and make a name for himself so it wouldn’t have been right for him to come with her when he was just beginning to build his life. They spent one, amazing last night together at her apartment that she never forgot and the next day she was gone.
Her father had been diagnosed with Stage IV Colorectal Cancer soon after she had returned to San Francisco all those years ago to be help her parents through this crisis. He had been given three years to live but Antoine Marionette was not one to go down without a fight. For two years Anton Christophe Marionette fought valiantly against the cancer, his wife and daughter at his side the whole time but it was not a fight that he would win. Before the second year had even ended, the aggressive cancer had been found to have had spread to his lungs and liver. Jacqueline’s father never even made it to the three year mark and a distraught mother and daughter returned to their native land to bury the most important person in their life.
After almost six full month’s of grieving, Jay decided that it was time for to let go, accept and move on. She knew that her father would not have wanted her to spend the rest of her life mourning his demise instead of following the dreams she had put on hold so that she could be by his side. Jacqueline returned to College, picking up where she had left off and by the summer of the following year she obtained her Graduate Degree in Business Studies & Management with First Class Honours. It didn’t take her long to obtain a Junior Level Entry Position in a relatively new small business that she felt had great promise to become more. Her instincts proved right and the corporation slowly grew until it had become a multi-million-dollar conglomerate. Jackie had been climbing her way steadily up the ladder and three years after first joining the company she was named Executive Vice President.
Jacqueline had achieved her goal of becoming a successful business woman. She had had to make sacrifices to achieve this goal, one of which being her personal life but now that everything seemed to be on track she could once again focus on that aspect of her life. Jay had several relationships that were good initially but there always seemed to be something missing. She believed that issue to be finally over when she took a chance and began to date the C.E.O. of the company. She had always had a slight crush on her boss but thought that it would be unprofessional to act on those feelings but after so many failed relationships she decided that you only lived once. Two months passed since they had started dating it was bliss. The chemistry between them was undeniable and Jackie was beginning to think that she just might have found The One.
However, it seemed that she was due for another dose of heartache. It was late spring when she got a call in the middle of the night from her assistant telling her to turn on the late night business report. Hartwell Industries’ stock had dropped in the ratings by 50 percent since the previous day’s trading session and the decline was projected to continue; it made no sense. The company was in crisis and it seemed that the Captain had abandoned ship, leaving Jacqueline at the wheel. It didn’t take long to figure out what the problem was; her supposed love had embezzled millions of dollars from the company. The problem was that she could not definitively prove it, he had been very careful, and she was now left to take the heat for it. As she was now the head of the company in the absence of the C.E.O. she was facing charges for fraud and if she didn’t act quickly she would end up in jail. It seemed that fate would take pity on her and offer her a solution. A fellow corporation was offering to buy the company and take on all the employees in the process, it was truly a miracle. Jackie quickly accepted the offer and negotiations were to start immediately with the companies C.E.O. who wanted to handle the acquisition personally. Little did she know that decision would do more than just keep her out of jail and save the jobs of hundreds of employees.
Jacqueline was more than bowled over at the first negotiation meeting when the C.E.O. of the buying company turned out to be none under than Pierre Jean Castelle. Twelve years had passed since the last time they saw each other, she had accepted that part of her life was just part of her past but fate had somehow brought them together again. They tried to remain professional and just work on the negotiations but it was quickly realised that they weren’t going to get any work done and it was to Jay’s great pleasure when Pierre suggested that they call it a night and have dinner so that they could catch up, the business deal could be finalized the next day.
The deal went through smoothly and Hartwell Industries was absorbed into Pierre’s company. The business deal was over but Pierre and Jacqueline’s association was not. They continued to meet and catch up on each other’s lives. Jackie found out that Pierre was married and had a three year old daughter but he also told her that he was not as happy in the marriage as she had once been and that he realised it even more now that his wife and daughter were away for the next couple months in England visiting with her parents and she was back in his life. There was no denying the chemistry between them, it had always been there and it was now stronger than ever before. Two weeks of breakfasts, brunches, lunches, dinners and long late night conversations on the phone later happened and the affair began.
They were together every night until his wife returned and then they planned their liaisons carefully, meeting at a different hotel at least three times a week and occasionally at her penthouse apartment. Somewhere along the line it became more than just sex for Jacqueline and she once again fell in love with Pierre and she was sure he felt the same. She knew that he was only staying in the marriage for the sake of little Emilie and that once she was old enough he would leave his wife, he reassured her of that almost every time they saw each other and Jay believed it with all her heart and soul. She knew that he was the one for her.
The affair lasted three years, Jackie was confident that Pierre would soon be leaving his wife. The night the he called her and said that he had something important to tell her that would greatly affect their relationship, she was positive that he was going to tell her that she was leaving his wife at last. She was wrong. The fact was that his wife had just found out that she was three months pregnant and he couldn’t leave her now. He had realised that his wife, daughter and unborn child really were too important to him for him to risk losing them. The fact was that he was leaving her. Jackie was distraught, she begged him to stay but his mind was made up. He left and she never heard from him again. He wouldn’t take her calls and eventually changed all his numbers. She was heartbroken but she eventually accepted that he was gone and never coming back.
It was two months after their break up that Jacqueline realised that she was also pregnant with Pierre’s child. She never told him though as she had decided that she would raise the child on her own. Sadly, she never got that chance. It had been a difficult pregnancy and complications during the labour led to her premature death. On the second day of February of the year following her parents break-up, Caliste Victoire Marionette came into the world with no mother and no father. She was left in the care of her mother’s closest relative so Callie was raised by her grandmother for eight happy years until her grandmother developed Alzhiemer’s Disease. A year after her diagnosis she was placed in a home and as no other relatives could be found, Cal entered the foster care system.
For the next six years she was bounced from foster home to foster home and not all were pleasant. She was twelve years old when she first got molested by her second set of foster parents. The molestation continued for two years before she finally got someone to believe her about what was going on and was removed from their care. Needless to say that event destroyed all sense of security that she had and she quickly decided to trust noone. Her last set of foster parents were unbelievably and irrationally strict with her. She soon found out that in their twisted minds she was a bad seed since she was sexually abused as if it was her fault. As a result, she rebelled against them in every way possible. It didn’t help that her grandmother, the only person who she had ever felt truly loved and protected by, now had no idea who she was. Adélaïde Éléonore Marionette, the only person to give her a true home, now looked straight through her without even the slightest hint of recognition in her eyes. She was a stranger to the woman who had taught her how to read, write, tie her laces and even ride a bike.
She lied, she drank, she experimented with drugs, she broke curfew constantly and even threw a couple wild parties in their home. She didn’t trust anyone enough to have any real relationships, trusting people never ended well for her, so the most she had was casual flings. She established herself as quite the wild child. The only thing that she did do right was keep her grades up and she only did this because she knew that her grandmother had always had high hopes for her and would want her to make something of herself. Also, she knew that she would soon be out of the system she detested and the only person she planned to depend on was herself.
When she turned 18 and was out of the system was one of the best days of Caliste life. She had won a scholarship to University so that part of her life was already sorted out but she had some other things to do now that she was on her own. Caliste had some money saved up from her part time job as a cashier at the nearby 24-Hr convenience store and before she had even been born her mother had set up a trust fund for her that she now had access to. She used some of this money to get an apartment of her own and to do one another thing, to begin searching for her father. If you asked her why she was looking for her father she couldn’t give you an answer, she didn’t know why herself. All she knew was that she felt that it was something she had to do.
It took eight months of research; going through old diaries, pictures, anything that could lead her to the truth. Figuring out the identity of her father turned out to be her Christmas present that year. Even in her wildest dreams it wasn’t what she would have expected. Her father was none other than the infamous business tycoon, Pierre Castelle. His company basically owned the town she lived in. Even after finding out this unbelievable info, it wasn’t till January that she sought him out. She didn’t have any expectations, she made sure of that. Her policy in life was what happens, happens; deal with it and move on. She knew that doing this might change her life but nothing could have prepared her for how much everything was about to change.
