To smooth the incident over, Alcibiades went to Hipponicus's house and, after stripping naked, "desired him to scourge and chastise him as he pleased".
[4] According to another version of the story, according to Plutarch, is that it was not Hipponicus, but Callias III, his son, who gave Hipparete to Alcibiades, with a dowry of ten talents.
And Callias was so afraid of the scheming of Alcibiades to get his wealth, that he made public proffer to the people of his property and house in case it should befall him to die without lineal heirs.
According to Plutarch, on her appearing publicly to support her plea for divorce to the magistrate, as the law required, "Alcibiades came up and seized her and carried her off home with him through the market place, no man daring to oppose him or take her from him".
She lived with him until her death and gave birth to probably two children, a daughter and a son, also named Alcibiades.
