I took the vacuum cleaner and handed it to Ivy as it would be better to give her some easy work. Instead I started to pick all my cloths, books etc. and arranged it accordingly. There was an awkward silence for about few minutes but it's quite impossible for me to shut my mouth for a long time.

"I have been always wanted to have a clear picture about all this magical thing. But each day Jasper will be busy with some or the other thing and I won't get to know much. As you are here now so I hope we can have some discussions on that." I slightly turned my head to look at her.

"Why not. It would be fun to explain everything to a person who is not like us. But before that I want to speak a few things about you and Jasper. Come sit here." We both sat comfortably on the bed.

"I know things got complicated from here and I'm not sure how to face it." I said.

"You are well aware of the situation but it's even much more. The first mistake he did was saving you from falling. It's not allowed to save a human from a wizard's power. For that he'll be punished separately. You don't have to worry a lot as it won't be anything harsh. But now he's in love and that too with a mortal. You know what that means? He will either be assassinated or will be thrown down to the mortality realm. Jasper has worked hard for what he has gained today. So I'm not sure what will he chose in the future. You or his responsibilities." She halted for a bit and sighed.

"So basically what you want to say is that I should leave Jasper as it is and part my ways?" I rolled my eyes out of frustration.

When did this angel suddenly turned into devil?

"Nope, I never said that. You must never give up on Jasper. After what that evil witch did to him, I'm sure he was shattered into pieces but it was you who sewed his heart back. Being immortal is no fun if you aren't blessed with love. A king can't be a ruler of peace if he is out of happiness. Finding his wand is like a duty to him but it was fate who brought you in his life. I don't want to see him hurt again. You better stay with him and endure everything together. Nobody knows what the future holds so let's do our best and stick to what is important." She squeezed my shoulder and continued cleaning.

My eyes were almost teary when I realised that no matter how powerful one creature can be but once love make it's way then they are bound to kneel down in front of Cupid. It wasn't a coincidence, it was all a gamble of destiny.

I doubted this angel unnecessarily. She truly came to support what is right.

"Oh well yes, I forgot to say one more thing." Ivy took out a small herb from her skirt's pocket and placed it on my palm.

She mumbled some chants and instantly a green smoke covered our hands giving out a ticklish perceive.

What on the earth is she trying to do?!

"Hey it's ticking." I started to roll on the bed but Ivy was holding my hand very tightly.

After few seconds she removed her hand and I saw the herb changing into a small black book with a symbol of leaf on it.

"This will help you a lot from now on." She winked.

This book looks small yet a bit heavier than what it seems. Is this my key to crack the wizardland?
