As time passed, Aurora continued to grow and develop her magical abilities. She was a happy and healthy child, loved by everyone around her. But as she grew older, she began to notice that both Jonathon and Hunter treated her differently than they did their other nieces and nephews.
She had always known that she was special to them, but she could sense that there was something more to their affection for her. She began to wonder if they both saw her as more than just their niece.
One day, as they were all gathered for a family dinner, Aurora decided to confront them. "Jonathon, Hunter," she said, looking at them both. "Can I talk to you for a minute?"
They both looked at her, concern etched on their faces. "Of course, Aurora," Jonathon said, getting up from his seat.
As they walked into the garden, Aurora took a deep breath. "I've noticed that you both treat me differently than you do your other nieces and nephews," she said, looking at them both. "Is there a reason for that?"
Jonathon and Hunter looked at each other, unsure of what to say. Finally, Jonathon spoke up. "Aurora, you are a very special young lady," he said, taking her hand. "We both love you very much."
Aurora felt her heart race at his words. "I know that," she said. "But there's more to it, isn't there?"
Hunter nodded. "Yes, there is," he said, taking her other hand. "Aurora, we both believe that we might be your father."
Aurora felt her heart skip a beat at his words. "What do you mean?" she asked, confused.
"We both had a relationship with your mother, Isabella," Jonathon said, looking at her. "And we both care deeply for you. We both want to be there for you in any way that we can."
Aurora looked at them both, feeling overwhelmed. She had always known that she had two uncles, but she had never considered that they might both be her father. She didn't know how to feel about it.
As she sat in the garden, contemplating what they had just told her, she felt a strange sensation in her body. It was as if her powers were trying to tell her something. Suddenly, she knew what she had to do.
"Thank you for telling me," she said, standing up. "But I need some time to think about this."
As she walked away, she knew that she had to perform a spell to find out the truth. She didn't know which one of them was her father, but she knew that her powers would guide her to the truth.
