Dark Choco X Herb Novels & Stories

Hendrick shakes his head, closing his hands into fists, “No, not you. I smell Artemisia absinthium.” Leaning in, he sniffs at the liquid again, my small brain cells running around hastily to free the books filled with my Latin knowledge from the dust. “Erm…” I stand there lost while I can observe Lisa going paler and paler. “I also smell rue and salvia. It’s quite the herbal mixture, seeing that Missy likes it sweet and fruity, isn’t it?” Hendrick tilts his head at Lisa, and she gulps visibly. “I- I did put in a bit of sweet,” she suddenly admits having prepared it, maybe because Hendrick’s hypnotic powers are taking their toll on her.

She screamed as she tried to tug me away. I didn't budge. I was still trying to pinpoint where I'd witnessed something like this. My eyes fell to his lips and it hit me. Purple. That was the color of the Nightshade herb. A herb used for intoxication. He must have ingested the herb or the fruit. It wasn't deadly, but it led to psychosis and suicide. It also had a natural antidote in its root. “Wait!” I screamed. “Get out of here!’’ Kaden screamed.

From within his robes, he produced a little box and once he flipped open the lid, a soft, greenish glow escaped the box, accompanied by the faint aroma of the herb – a seven-leafed clover. A Herb of Seven Stars. Chu Xun's lips twisted into a smile. The Herb of Seven Stars is an ingredient of the Level-improving Pill – one with potent efficacy, and Chu Xun could see that this one was of moderate grade. Immediately, Chu Xun delivered a telepathic message to Jiu You, telling her that she must win the prize. "What do you think of this, little girl?" The ancient man chuckled. "Looks fine." Jiu You remarked, looking at it.

Dax had made the arduous trek to the shrine, knowing that it was his best chance for survival. Lucas, the wise and noble alpha, had led the group of werewolves on a perilous quest to find the magical herb that could counteract the poison's effects. The herb, known as Moonleaf, grew only in the darkest corners of the enchanted forest, guarded by mythical creatures and treacherous terrain. Their journey had been fraught with danger, but Lucas and his crew had prevailed. With the Moonleaf in their possession, hope had blossomed within their hearts. They knew that this herb held the key to Dax's recovery, the antidote to the venom that threatened to consume him.

I know its properties are milder than silver flower, but it's a of a lot more abundant so I'm putting my hopes on quantity over quality. I'm focused on my work, but I can't help but notice that Luke is watching my every move. There are no sounds in the cabin other than the faint sound of rock against rock and Luke's occasional groan. When a portion of the herbs transform into a green paste, I begin to add more herb to the mix and patiently grind it until It seems to be enough, then add a whole large black berry.

I couldn't tell if it was intentional or if my mind was just grasping for something that wasn't there. "Dragon's tongue?" Remi asked. "What else is on the list?" "Cat whiskers, foxglove, pink moss, and dragon's teeth." "The herb or actually teeth?" He asked. "Teeth," I answered. He wrinkled his nose. "That's going to be spendy." I shrugged. "It's her money." "It's in your pocket," he said.

So, I simply answered, "I'm Archie." She nodded and whispered, "You must have, like me, accidentally inhaled their poison, causing you to fall into a coma. That is why they didn't leave anyone to watch over me. But now we woke up early, so let's be cautious while talking, in case of alarming them." Confused, I asked, "Woke up early?" "Yes, this drug is potent, a unique herb from Dark Forest. Once inhaled, it causes a three-day coma at least. But I have a special method, so we woke up earlier," she said, her tone mysteriously proud when mentioning this.

I open the door and walk towards the store with the standing signage screaming “Dr. Wolfe Herbals.” I walk into the store, grab a trolley and start wheeling to pick up several herbs; a healing oil, Moonwip to erase the scar, Wolfsbane Lily to chest out old scars and grandmother often use it for us when we were kids. Lavender leaves give it a good scent. As I wheel my trolley towards the counter to make payment, another trolley boycotts me. I glance up at the owner of the trolley. Chloe? Why do I have to meet her here of all places?

Albert grabbed her hand, his voice tight with panic as he yelled to the servants outside, “Get the Pack Healer! Now!” The raw panic in his eyes was worse than anything I’d seen when I was bleeding out during my own labor just two days ago. The Alpha’s personal healer arrived quickly and examined Chloe. Albert immediately cornered him, demanding to know the cause. The healer stammered, refusing to speak, and shot a strange glance in my direction. A knot of dread formed in my stomach. Finally, he spoke. “It-it’s the incense in the room. It was laced with Darkmoon herb… it harms a pregnant wolf’s spirit.”

You would never guess we were related. "Mom, can you just say something like yes, my favorite son, anything you ask, in fact I am currently making your favorite chocolate chip cookies right now topped with Hershey's kisses and when you come over later you can have them all, leave that Max boy at the clubhouse, he is too ugly to be in your presence anyways." I say in a high-pitched voice, then turn around to make sure no one heard me do that.
