Bloody Flowers Novels & Stories

*Poppy* The air in the car felt heavy as we bounced along the dirt road, the rhythmic bounce of the wheels barely covering the chaos swirling in my mind. I couldn't shake the image of Dante's lifeless body, now shrouded in white silk and adorned with calla lilies and black roses. Each flower seemed to mock the tragedy, a haunting reminder of our failure. I gripped the edge of the seat, trying to steady my raging heart. The news we carried was more than just the death of a warrior; it was a ticking time bomb, threatening to ignite a war between kingdoms.

Theo, on the other hand, was prepared to go to any length for Heather. They stroll together towards the flower plant, which has a variety of different kinds of flowers. Because it is spring now, the breeze is stronger, making it more pleasant to go for a stroll. Heather's grin remained unwavering as she reached for a little flower. It is crimson and black, and if you look carefully, you can see that it represents blood. However, since Heather finds everything to be lovely, she didn't even give it a second thought; it was only Theo who did. When Logan saw the white flower, he took it up and the two of them came to a complete halt.

“Then we’ll just have to be faster.” By dawn, we were already on the move again. The mountain range stretched endlessly before us, every ridge sharper than the last, each step echoing with exhaustion. The path narrowed as we descended into the valley below, where the air grew warmer and thick with mist. Strange black flowers bloomed along the cliffsides—flowers that glowed faintly blue when touched by the sun. Aaron stopped to pluck one. “Well, at least the apocalypse has nice landscaping.” Sylra smacked his hand. “Those are soul blooms. They grow on the graves of forgotten spirits.”

Black roses this flower, not pure black, but dark red, red black, now spread on the floor, as if solidified blood. A woman cried out, "The flowers are blooming, the flowers are blooming ......" Mu Zi asked those around her, "What's going on?" "If the flowers sent are closed buds, it means that there are still some days before death, if they are half-open buds, it means that the day is fast approaching ...... But this, this bouquet of flowers, it's all blooming!"

A white rose lay on the floor dripping with blood. A small, shiny blade lay beside it. A beautiful object in such a terrible and painful condition. The blood stain on it did not hide it's immaculate and beautiful nature. She puffed smoke in the air and took a sip of the liquor beside her, as she glared at the bleeding rose with sad and anguish filled eyes, it told a lot about her and her agony. She was as beautiful as the rose in front of her.

And the blush that was barely receding was back again. "I'm not a pretty little flower, Roses are as pretty as they are dangerous." He scoffed, standing up and even from where he was standing, I could see that he'll tower over me. He straightened out his suit jacket. Eyes boring into mine. "The only dangerous roses are those with thorns Rose, and you my dear, you have no thorns. You're a pretty little flower, a harmless little flower." He walked towards me till he was standing right Infront of me, towering over me as expected, I craned my neck just too look at him. "I'll be taking my leave now pretty flower, say hi to Mr. Potter for me."

I’d never seen anything like them before. Alaric’s face darkened. “Shit.” “What is it?” I asked. “These flowers—they’re not normal. They grow only on cursed soil. The kind that’s been fed human flesh. Sacrificial.” A chill rolled down my spine. “You mean… someone died here?” “More than one,” Alaric muttered. “This is black magic. Whoever took them isn’t just hiding—they’re cloaking their trail.” “So the scent—” “An illusion,” he finished. “You’ve been following a trap.”

Why did my glamour break when he kissed me? For me, pain doesn't come as a dagger. It's something I've embraced and doesn't feel sharp anymore. It just comes to shatter everything around me, showing me the void that's actually there inside me. Before all hell breaks loose, I need to numb myself as much as possible. I sprint toward the fridge and take a look at Alisa’s stash. She obtains blood from a variety of sources, from shady dealers to medical personnel, primarily by bribery since she has yet to master the art of glamour. Nonetheless, she is incredibly resourceful.

Deliberately, carefully, with skill and sustained effort. And underneath it, held so tightly it was barely present, held the way you held something at the bottom of a current with both hands and all your weight, something else entirely. Something that smelled of open ground after rain and running cold water and the particular clean-iron scent that belonged to a bloodline with significant age in it. Not warm-blooded. Not the human register. Something older than both, something that had been here before the categories existed and had continued regardless. I pulled back and looked at her face.

I took a small detour from following Alexis, bending over a patch of those strange black roses. My confusion and curiosity grows when my finger brushes past a red one and it turns black. It gets worse I bucked the finger towards the black one and the shade turns. “What the fuck?” 'I second that. What the fuck?' Cecil adds. I shoot to my feet and walk towards the main door. Alexis was about to turn the key. I can explore the house later, right now everything is freaky and different.
