Crimson Lilies Novels & Stories

Kenzie asked as if she were drawn to it like a moth to a flame. “Do not open the vial,” Hatchett growled as Kenzie’s fingers hovered over the vial. She paused and quickly recoiled from Hatchett’s hand. “We’re not sure exactly. We know the compound base is cocaine but we haven’t been able to figure out what makes it pink.” “Looks like Corpse Lily,” Kenzie said, examining the vial from her seat. “What?” Torque asked. “Corpse Lily,” Kenzie repeated. “A compound created from a lily native to Indonesia. It’s one of the only things that stunts the shifter gene. Get enough of it in you and the wolf shrinks away.”

Luckily for me though, Sienna wasn't around when I got in, and after taking a shower, I spent about an hour and some studying and doing assignments before going to sleep and dreaming of beautiful green grass and a barefooted mother and son running in it hand in hand in the morning sun. The first face I saw when I got into class, Virginia. Today, she wasn't in her usual neutral or earth coloured clothes but something else. Something that, on her, seemed a little to bright, even though it wasn't all that bright. It just seemed off. I had no problem with people trying new things, especially not after what Alex told me the previous night, but her bright purple sequined dress just seemed...the on

I looked like a dwarf beside him although I am taller than other girls, as I am five feet seven inches. “I am asking what your name is…” he said in his cold tone and I felt stupid in front of him. I thought he was staring at me but he was just waiting for my answer about my name. I breathed out heavily. My rating for delivery will go down from one to zero because he doesn't seem happy with my delivery service. Oh, shit*! “My name is… my name is... Crimson.” There! I gave him my name! I don’t like my name at all. How I wish that the orphanage named me Red or Scarlet and it was much better than Crimson.

It was her 18th birthday, the day she would find her soulmate, or so she was told, but that was a problem for another day. After saying goodbye to her older brother and sister-in-law, Lilith made her way to school. The walk toward Lichen Hill High was nice and quiet. Lilith took her chance and looked at the scenery, noticing that the leaves had changed colors from vivid green to light orange-yellow signifying that fall had reached their door. She couldn't help but smile; fall was always her favorite season; it reminded her of her parents. Her father's wolf, from his Dark Autumn fur, always seems to be in place in the frost. At the same time, her mother was Kincha Brown, who always seemed to

As he inhaled her soft scent, a sense of calm washed over him. The world outside faded away, leaving only the two of them in this moment. Azrael gazed at Zafira and his voice was low and filled with emotion. "I waited ten years for this moment, Crimson. The first time I saw you, you were wearing a crimson dress, holding a bunch of red roses. Your hair danced in the breeze, and you were smiling brightly, wrapped in the embrace of your boyfriend, ex-husband now. My heart burned with desire, but I controlled myself because you were just a little girl then- my little one".

"A new flower?" "Yes," she said, pointing, "that one, the red one. It isn't from the usual staff planting." I directed my gaze to where she pointed, and caught my breath. There it was, among the pale and silver moonflowers, a single crimson lily. It was rich, soft, and clean, as if it had just now blossomed. That was odd and immediately, something in my chest tightened. I stepped forward. The lily was beautiful, sure. But it was wrong. Like a drop of blood on snow. And then I saw it, tucked between two petals, hanging from a black string. A tag.

Their petals were deep violet, almost black, blooming despite the chill. “What are these?” “Belladonna.” She raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t that poisonous?” Rhys smiled without looking at her. “Only if you swallow it.” She glanced back toward the mansion, just visible through the fog. “Did someone leave that letter for me?” He stilled. His fingers hovered above the roots. “What letter?” he asked. She hesitated. “In my room. Crimson wax seal. No name. It was… left on my floor. Like someone had just been there.”

Pale yellow lilies with great star-shaped blooms, speckled with pink, bloomed from the snow. I knew these flowers. They’d been my mother’s favorites. She’s called them Rising Moon Lilies. She’d grown them in the garden when I was younger, and she’d told me that they were drops of light the moon had left behind when it was closest to the earth. The rising moon was always yellow because it was coming up from the soil, and it would shed that dim yellow light back to the ground before rising, naked and pure, back into the sky. She said they were a sign of awakening. Of the dawning of a good night.

Levi said in a whisper voice Azrael and Lexi both jumped down from the vent following Levi. What welcomed them was the stinky dungeon. The stench of body odor and dried blood lingers through the air and Azrael was just trying her best not to vomit. The smell made them nauseous but determination took over. They all looked through the cells of the dungeon. They were wolves from the Crimson Crest pack, lying down without strength. At first glance you might think they are dead but they are not. They are only covered with their own blood and sweat but they are still breathing… barely alive.

There was acres and acres of land spread out in front and back of the mansion and it made Rain wonder if she even had a chance to escape. She didn’t really give him a reply. They passed by a few menacing looking men who gave her weird stares or just straight out showed their lust. Does Alexander deprive them of women or what? It was a long walk but they finally made it to their destination. It was the most beautiful garden she had ever seen, one would think it was a maze but she could see where those plants led to. Bright red roses and perfectly trimmed grass paved a pathway to a small cabin. She had never seen roses grow I’m such a condition before but then again she didn’t know much about
