Dark Choco X Herb Novels & Stories

“You fight, you survive and you find a way to meet those conditions, even if it means defying your alpha.” She returned to the table and began wrapping the items. “These herbs will strengthen the mate bond, make the separation less painful. The crystals are protective wards, make sure to keep them close. And this…” She held up the vial of silver liquid. “….is for emergencies only.” “What is it?”

The dinning room slowly became rowdier as sisters trooped in, chatting and blessing each other, talking about the fast. Arghhh… I was fading slowly, the pain intensifying and mauling my insides. I lifted my head and saw a bun placed on a small plate in front of me. The priest had not yet come and I was on the verge of meeting the Lord. I couldn’t bear this anymore. The bum smelled divine and warmed my palms. I sunk my teeth into it and its sweetness blessed my tongue. Tears pricked my eyes and I felt the monster in my stomach weaken, his blows having less of an impact.

"Not if you help me, Chloe. I have been using my own core and the power of the blood-contract to suppress the pup's aura, but my strength is failing. The morning sickness is getting worse. I need herbs. I need winter-sage and white-root from the medical dispensaries." "Winter-sage?" Chloe’s breath hitched. As an Omega maid who had spent years cleaning the infirmaries in the Moonlight Pack, she knew exactly what those herbs did. "Those are scent-maskers, Natalie. They are highly regulated in the Blackwood Pack. The doctors track every gram to ensure low-ranking wolves aren't hiding contagious silver-rot or forbidden suppressants."

Where the sauce touched the white porcelain, a thin, sickly gray ring separated from the red juice, glistening with a faint, oily shimmer. Dragon-root. It was an herb the mountain hunters used to numb the limbs of wild beasts before putting them down. To a full-blooded dragon warrior with burning mana in their veins, a small pinch would only cause a mild stomach cramp. But to a frail human body—especially lungs already scarred by chronic sickness—the herb would clamp the throat shut within ten minutes. Across the room, Seraphine lifted her crystal wine glass. She caught my gaze and offered a smooth, poisonous smile, tilting her glass toward me in a silent, mocking toast.

He held a cluster of dark, jagged leaves with shimmering white veins that seemed to pulse in the light. "It was right where she said," Rook panted, leaning against the doorframe. "It was actually... it was quite easy to find. Like it wanted to be found." "Give it to me," I commanded, standing up. Following the Chimera’s instructions, we prepared the herb. I watched as the essence was brought to her, the crushed leaves releasing a sharp, earthy scent that filled the room, smelling of rain and old forest. We applied it as directed, the silence returning to the room, heavier than before.

“What?” “The test came back positive for moongrass, yarrow, and mugwort,” the nurse said, holding the strip up for all to see. The original light blue color was now a deep purple. “All three are common herbs used in the creation of the strength tonic known as ‘Wolf’s Edge’. It’s a liquid known to give the drinker brief but unprecedented strength and speed.” Some scattered laughter rose around the room. As if this was a fucking joke. Jessica, now looking supremely proud of herself, announced loudly, “So it’s true, then. Liora is a cheater, just like we all thought.”

Suddenly, Darryl’s mind blinked, and he thought of something. His eyes shone brightly at that instant. ‘Brother Chester mentioned that the Dark Day Pills that they consumed had a similar effect to the Heaven Cult Elixir of the Grandmaster Heaven Cult. The only difference is its power is ten times stronger. I knew the way to produce the antidote for the Heaven Cult Elixir. I shall produce the antidote with ten times the dosage, and that will do right?’ Darryl was excited. He ordered the disciples, “Hurry, prepare these herbs and medicines for me. Remember every one of them clearly.”

His hair grew a lot since I last saw him and I think he purposely let it grow, enough for a man bun as I assume. Chocolate was most likely what I crave the most, dark chocolate, hot cocoa or brownies. Apparently, anything to do with chocolate which was not very healthy. Sometimes I had to sneak in late at night to eat it only to be discovered by Xander each time, sitting on the floor with a spoon filled Nutella in my mouth. He doesn’t say anything, just sits down beside me in silence until my cravings are satisfied then we go to bed.

I'm sorry if I did something—I didn't mean to—" "A short dress? Your hair up to show your neck?" His eyes were sharper than I had ever seen them. I realized then that he had taken something. He was high, and the drug had stripped away his restraint. I tried to push him away, But he pinned my wrists against the cold surface of the fridge, his body pressing into mine like a wall of solid heat. I could feel the darkness radiating off him, the air between us was thick with the scent of whiskey and the sharp, chemical edge of the drugs.

Lucas slowly said. Hester nodded. While Lucas was looking for the Sacred Elixir, she would go look for Heavenly Silkworm Ganoderma which could save lives and regrow bones. She wanted to use it to save her grandfather. Hard work paid off. Lucas searched for more than ten minutes and found a herb on a cliff. This medicine was in Human being form, looking extremely strong and capable. Hester hurriedly told Lucas, "Senior, that is Sacred Elixir." ... A wonderful expression appeared on Lucas' fair and delicate face.
