nVICTORIA'S POV

nThe fall that I was expecting never happened.

nWhen I didn't feel any pain, I opened my eyes to see what was the reason of me not falling, when I clearly remembered me stumbling soo hard on that tree branch.

nHowever, the situation in front of me or that was happening with me was no joke. It was true. The nightmares of my power were just beginning.

nThere was a weird kind of magma coming out of my hands, that I had placed in front of my face earlier to protect myself. The Magna had made a force soo strong on the ground, that it didn't let me fall.

nOn the contrary, I could see that there were no leaves or stone on the place where the Magna was pointing at. All the leaves have been pushed away and the floor was so clean that it appeared as someone had mopped it.

n'Wh-What the hell did just happened?' I asked to no one in particular.

n'I told you didn't I? Your panicking will only increase your power's desire to protect you and things will turn bad if you don't control them correctly.' Carla said.

n'You mean to say, I did this? This power, this Magna or whatever it is called, it's all from me?' I asked her.

n'Obviously. Did you thought there was a real genie on your back?' Carla scoffed at my stupidity.

n'Then does that mean, I don't have a genie? That genies aren't real?' I asked her, my hopes crashing, making me sad.

n'Jesus Victoria! That shouldn't even be the point of your concern. I am telling you that these powers belong to you and all you are concerned over is that you don't have a genie? That genies aren't real? Are you for real?! You are that **ing genie for yourself.' Carla shouted at me, making me squint my eyes in annoyance.

n'Wait, what the hell am I saying? Your stupidity germs are inflicting me too. There is nothing like a genie in the first place. They are wishing fairies okay?' Carla said.

n'Then, shouldn't I at least wish for a Broom to travel around?' I asked her, which I could see was only irritating her more.

n'You know what? Whether you wish for a Broom or even a **in aeroplane to travel around, I don't care. It's not a matter of my concern in the first place. Besides, I am hungry. Let's eat something before I smash your head with my annoyance and irritating emotions.' Carla warned me before sitting on the couch inside my mind.

nWait! Last time I checked there was only a freaking chair, how did it turn into a couch?

n'What if? Just what if, Carla is that genie, who is fulfilling my wishes and has those powers? It can be true right?' I thought while blocking my mind so that, she couldn't hear anything.

nBefore I could even take a step ahead, I heard some rustling from behind me.

n

"Hey! Ria! Why did you run off like that? God damn it! You run faster than a wolf!

" Alexander said as he started nearing me.

n

"What are you even following me for? And what wolf? You talk like you compete with a wolf every day.

" I asked keeping my emotions in check just like how Carla had said. I don't want to display my freaking powers in front of him just like that and scare the ** out of him.

nI don't want people to think that I am some weird psycho or something like that.

n

"I just, I saw you running out of the cafeteria after the incident with Laila, so I-

"

n

"So, you naturally thought I am the reason behind that incident? That I did that to your girlfriend? Right?

" I asked cutting him off in between.

nThough I was trying to keep my cool 'I am not at fault, so I don't give a damn', facade, I was barely keeping it in. I was feeling so nervous that he might know about my powers.

nI still can't forget the way he gazed at me, with those suspicion filled eyes like he knew it was me, who wished that and asked someone to do it.

n

"No, I know you would never do that. You are just a normal human, to begin with. Why would you think that?

" Alexander asked scratching the back of his head.

nHearing his words, I realised he didn't defy the fact that I called Laila his girlfriend. Looks like it's true.

nBesides, what's with this just a normal human? Is he some alien, for calling me a human like that?

n

"Nothing. I am just used to people accusing me of wrongly.

" I said before walking more inside the forest.

n

"University is this way, you know?

" He reminded me.

nRolling my eyes, I muttered casually,

n

"I know. I am not intending to go back to university. My lectures are over for the day, anyway.

"

nAs soon as I completed my sentence, I saw him following me again, that made me annoyed.

n

"Why are you still following me? Look, it might sound rude, but I am here to meet someone special okay? How about you go back to your girlfriend Laila and tend to her. See if she broke a bone or two? She looked like, she needed you.

" I said irritatingly.

nI know my rude words might've shocked him, that am I the same sweet girl who doesn't badmouth anyone. When I didn't hear anything in return, I turned around to only come face to face with a goofy looking Alexander.

n

"What are you smiling at?

" I asked my annoyance beginning to take over me.

n

"I see, you are jealous,

" Alexander said boldly, before smiling like a freak that made my blood boil.

n'Oh my god! The nerve of this guy! Does he think I have that much time on my hand to only think about him and who he is playing with?' I thought in my mind.

n'Well, he is right, no?' Carla beamed in.

n'Shut up Carla! Now is not the time for you to make me self introspect my feelings.' I reprimanded her before looking back at Alexander with my own lopsided smirk.

n

"And why would you think that I will be jealous, when I have mates other than you, that I can talk and hang around with, for example, Daniel?

" I said, patting my shoulder in my mind for the nice comeback.

n'I don't think, it was soo nice. I think you just made our mate angry. You might not know, but the males are very protective of their females and you talking about hanging out with another male in front of him just fueled his anger. Oh boy! I could see thunder taking over.' Carla said smiling cheekily with those doe eyes you make when you see your lover.

nTo be honest none of her words were, making any sense to me or were understandable, and thus, I did the only thing I am becoming best at, I ignored her like always, pushing her in the back corner of my mind.

nI could hear her faint shouting from the back of my mind and seeing her like this, let me tell you, was a truly epic sight.

nTurning my attention back to where Alexander was, I was confused a bit when I saw his eyes glowing hazel with an amber colour circle in his iris.

n

"What the hell is happening with your eyes?

" I whispered asked.

nAlexander looked at me deeply before, he started speaking, and I must say, the words that he spoke, are the words that I'll never forget in my whole life.
