Selma Payne's POV:
I didn't hesitate this time. "I love you too, Aldrich."
After tactfully rejecting the host's good intentions of having us stay for dinner, I held hands with Aldrich and strolled back to the safe house.
The house that had been empty for an entire afternoon was a little cold. In between my breaks, I carefully arranged the petals and leaves of the flower in my hand and solemnly placed them into a clean wooden box.
The fresh flowers would wither very soon. What could I do?
I used mind-link to ask Dorothy if there was a solution. She said, "You can try to draw a simple time-delay spell."
"But I don't have the talent for magic. I can't use magic."
"Although you don't have magic power, you have a strong 'power'. You can use the power drawn from demonic shards or other things as the structure's foundation. It might produce unexpected effects."
