Brave Frontier Flower Core Novels & Stories

“I wouldn’t hurt her again.” “How did you do it? She swore you had altered reality. That you had turned all vampires against humans.” “The Night Flower,” Aiden offered the information generously. His amused grin didn’t falter even once. “I doubt you’ve heard of it. It’s exclusive to only members of our royal lineage. It is very potent—can make you see anything the wielder desires you to.” “It doesn’t matter now.” “Damn right it does! Do you have any fucking idea what you did to her?! She’s… she’s never been the fucking same again!”

All I could see was Princess Aurora pawing at him, leaning in for a kiss… Noah came to a sudden stop as we approached a bunch of ocean-blue, white-tipped flowers. Bending over, he pulled out one of these long flowers by the root and presented it to me ceremoniously. “Sky lupine,” he said, “incredibly beautiful but toxic if ingested. Handle with care.” He winked as he handed the plant to me.

A shiver coursed through Luke. Kael, still holding Luke close, leaned down, his lips brushing Luke’s earlobe. “Such a beautiful body. We’ve missed it.” His voice was a low growl, sending tremors down Luke’s spine. Damon stepped forward, his powerful hands reaching for Luke’s belt. The buckle clicked open, a sound that echoed like a final surrender. Luke’s trousers, then his underwear, were deftly removed, leaving him completely naked. He stood before them, vulnerable, exposed, his body flushed with a mixture of fear and burgeoning desire.

Liam said, his voice a low, terrifying snarl. ​He pried open a crate with his claws. Inside were crossbow bolts, but the tips weren't steel or silver. They were made of a strange, translucent black glass that hummed with a sick, oily energy. ​"Obsidian-Core," Marcus whispered, his face turning pale. "It's illegal in all five packs. It's designed to bypass Alpha-skin. It rots the healing factor from the inside out."

That night, Zarya didn’t come back to our apartment. I knew where she was. The next morning, I opened the pack’s internal security network. The top story was a new update. Alpha Zarya had ordered a hundred thousand dollars’ worth of rare herbs for Soren. Dragon’s Blood Vine, Moonflower Fruit, and Soul-Ease Root—all top-shelf remedies used to soothe an Omega after knotting and stabilize a permanent mate bond. The comment section exploded. “Our Alpha is spending that much energy on someone else?”

"Yea? It's a lily? What about it?" My answer made him snicker as he turned his head in my direction. "It's not a lily. It's called Elnea. It's a flower tended to by the flora fairies that used to follow Eleanor's orders. The sword was what Eleanor knew how to use the best. Eleanor smells like Elnea." So, the flowery scent I smell on Eleanor is Elnea? "So, it has nothing to do with your glory?"

Then, both out phones buzzed. Zac reached over to grab his from the bedside table and I looked down at mine. A notification from Shane popped up. He had made a group-chat called"Flower Children" —with him, John, Zac and I in it. He sent a photo Zac and I asleep, all tangled up together. I sucked in a breath. As cute as the photo may be, my stomach swirled with anxiety and guilt. I wasn't supposed to fall asleep here—with him, in his bed.

He asked. I nodded, hoping it wasn't too private of knowledge. He didn't hesitate to continue, "There's this rare herb that grows down here, more south of the Crowalt Pack's territory. It helps the circulation of blood for the she-wolf blood providers so that they can produce more, and not be injured by the letting of their blood. It's so valuable to them, they will pay a fortune for it. It's a lucrative trade, and I want to get some of the proceeds."

The pill was called the Fire King Pill and was made with three main ingredients: a thousand-year-old fire mushroom, the core of a level ten monster with fire attributes, and finally, a cold fire flower. "Grandfather, this cold fire flower...?" The young lady did not know how to obtain a cold fire flower. Cold fire flowers were rare even in the upper realm; not only were they expensive, but their rarity made them very difficult to find. Of the three, the thousand-year-old fire mushroom was not difficult to obtain, but it was only the standard requirement for making the pill. At least a thousand years was needed for the pill-making process to be successful, and the level ten monster core was a

Minnie opened the door. A delivery man stood there holding a sleek white box tied with a crimson ribbon. “Delivery for Minerva Rivera.” She took it, heart fluttering for reasons she didn’t want to name. Inside was a simple bouquet of pale pink roses and eucalyptus, arranged with quiet elegance. Nestled among the blooms was a card in that same clean block handwriting.
