Bonnie and Enzo arrive at their Parisian boutique hotel, excited for their romantic honeymoon. As they check in, the hotel manager hands Bonnie a small, intricately carved key along with their room key.
Hotel Manager: (with a knowing smile) "A gift for the Madame. The key has been waiting for a Bennett for centuries."
Bonnie: (frowning, puzzled) "I didn't mention my name yet."
The manager simply nods and walks away, leaving Bonnie and Enzo bewildered but intrigued.
While visiting Notre Dame Cathedral, Bonnie feels an inexplicable pull toward a quiet corner near the altar. She notices a carving on the stone wall that resembles the pattern on the key.
Bonnie: (whispering) "Enzo, look. It's the same symbol as the key from the hotel."
Enzo: (examining it) "What are the odds? Shall we see where it leads, love?"
Bonnie inserts the key into a small hidden lock within the carving. The wall shifts slightly, revealing a narrow staircase leading downward.
Enzo: (grinning) "A secret passage in Notre Dame? Paris just got even more exciting."
The staircase leads them to an ancient chamber lit by soft, flickering torches. At the centre is a pedestal holding a weathered leather-bound grimoire. Bonnie approaches cautiously, feeling a surge of energy as she nears the book.
Bonnie: (in awe) "This..." This is Bennett magic. I can feel it."
She opens the book, revealing spells and writings in an old, familiar script. A note on the first page is addressed to her:
"To the Bennett witch who finds this, may the magic of your ancestors guide you and your loved ones through all your days."
Bonnie: (tearing up) "It's from my ancestors. They must have left it here for me to find."
Enzo: (placing a hand on her shoulder) "They knew you'd come here one day. It's as if Paris was meant to be part of your journey."
That evening, as they visit the Eiffel Tower, Bonnie experiments with one of the simpler spells from the grimoire. Under the sparkling lights of the tower, she casts a harmless enchantment to create glowing orbs that float around them, illuminating their private moment.
Bonnie: (giggling) "I thought a little magic might make this even more special."
Enzo: (grinning) "You're extraordinary, Bonnie. Who else gets to dance in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower surrounded by starlight you created?"
They share a romantic dance under the magical glow, the world around them fading away as they revel in their love.
The next day, while exploring the Louvre, Bonnie feels another tug of magical energy near the Egyptian exhibit. She notices a small amulet displayed among the artefacts that hums with familiar power.
Bonnie: (whispering) "That's not just an artifact it's enchanted."
She discreetly uses a spell to read the energy around it and discovers it's a protective talisman once owned by a Bennett witch who lived in France centuries ago.
Enzo: (amused) "You're turning this honeymoon into a magical treasure hunt, love."
Bonnie: (smiling) "And I wouldn't have it any other way."
On their last night, Bonnie and Enzo return to the hidden chamber beneath Notre Dame to place the talisman alongside the grimoire. Bonnie casts a protective spell, ensuring the magic remains safe for future generations.
Bonnie: "This city holds so much history, so much magic. It feels like a part of me now."
Enzo: (wrapping his arms around her) "Paris will always be our city. A place where love and magic collided."
As they ascend back to the surface, the bells of Notre Dame ring out as if blessing their union and their journey ahead.
Their honeymoon ends with a sunset river cruise on the Seine. As they sail past the glowing Eiffel Tower, Bonnie and Enzo reflect on their magical adventure.
Bonnie: (smiling) "This wasn't just a honeymoon. It was a connection to my past and our future."
Enzo: (kissing her forehead) "And it's only the beginning. Wherever we go, love, magic will always follow you."
The camera pans out as they share a kiss, the Eiffel Tower sparkling in the background, and the magical orbs Bonnie created earlier floating gently around them.
