I Brought You Frankincense Original Novels & Stories

Unlike the weak imitation that had been leaked and stolen by Aurora Scents, The Original was meticulously crafted with the finest ingredients, designed to unfold like a story, each layer revealing a deeper, richer experience. Jessica turned to me with a grin, swirling the champagne in her glass. "I hope you realize, this is beyond what we imagined." I exhaled, scanning the breathtaking setup before us. "We didn’t just reclaim what was stolen. We redefined it." The venue was transformed into a dreamlike garden of scent and elegance, with towering floral installations bursting with the very ingredients that defined our new perfume line. Lavender, jasmine, sandalwood, and rare citrus blossoms f

I replied. Once in Frankie’s suite I showered and lotioned using my favorite eucalyptus and spearmint aromatherapy. Since Alpha said there were guests coming, I slid into my black off-shoulder scalloped neck and hem body-con dress, black gladiator wrap stilettos, and a pair of large silver sparkly hoop earrings. I of course had the bracelet that Frankie gave me and tossed my hair up into a messy bun, pulled down a few strands to frame my face. A little eyeliner and mascara with a clear gloss and I am all set.

I won’t let him down. I make my way through the different containers, inhaling deeply until I’m lightheaded and dizzy. The raw sample in my hand has hints of apple blossom and wild berries mixed with something warm and earthy. Sandalwood and amber are hidden beneath the more pungent floral notes. There. The black bottle in my hands matches the scent perfectly. This is the one. I’m sure of it. I know that it shouldn’t, but a small part of me enjoys the look of disbelief on Pauline’s face when I appear in her office with the distillate.

The pleasant fragrances wafting through the air had already lifted my spirits considerably. However, I was suddenly struck with a pang of guilt upon realizing that I hadn't yet acquired a gift for Jasper. Standing in the aisle, I racked my brain for ideas on what to get him, but he seemed to possess everything already. Then, my gaze happened upon the lip balms, and a mischievous grin crept across my face. I recalled Jasper's aversion to overly feminine scents in lip balms. Without a second thought, I grabbed four jars of cocoa butter, confident that he would appreciate them.

My fingers trembled slightly as I unwrapped it, revealing a delicate silver bracelet with five small charms, each one representing an element. "I had Francis help me pick it out," Nelson admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. "He said the symbolism might be... appropriate now."

Because they don't work just for obedience, but for devotion. “ I have something for you …”, calls me into a corner the woman who was the first to raise her voice on behalf of the group, “It's simple. My brother brought it back from a trip and it's already a little wilted. However, you can feel its scent. It is a Miltonia orchid, from Colombia. To remind you of the land, Dennis said you are Colombian too.

“Yeah,” Nick said. “I haven’t been sleeping well lately. If I want to function at work, I kind of need a little help.” Lucy thought for a moment. “My brother recently brought back this specialty incense from overseas. He said it was something old royal families used. It’s supposed to be incredibly rare, and it helps with sleep. I’ll give you some when I get home.” Nick immediately waved it off. “That’s not appropriate. If it’s that valuable and you give it to me, Mr. Chancer will be furious.”

“This must have cost a fortune, and this brand, I’ve never even seen it before.” Franklin glanced down. It was a customized perfume from Cassie’s newest collection, elegant and unmistakably exclusive. The moment the box was opened, the fragrance subtly filled the space. Corrine inhaled softly, her gaze drifting toward Franklin. “It smells incredible,” she said warmly. “And your scent has changed since the last time you visited.” She smiled. “I like this one better.” Julius nodded in agreement, still staring at Franklin with open interest. “Mom and Dad talk about you a lot,” he said slowly. “And even though you look so much like Frederick, you feel different. Are you—”

This is practically attempted murder! A piercing, defensive cry echoed from the corridor outside. "I didn't try to murder anyone! I was trying to save her!" Katie broke free from the campus security officers, burst into the room, and fell to her knees by my bedside. Tears streamed down her face. "Dr. Ferrell, don't let the metrics of modern medicine blind you! I bought those incense sticks myself from the convenience store by the hills out back. "The shopkeeper said they were made of all-natural cypress wood shavings! Jane's heart is racing because she's tortured by the material greed of capitalism. Only the scent of nature can restore her purity!"

"Chamomile, Jasmine, Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Lavender oil. Also, there's this new oil that we recently received delivery of. According to the reviews we've gotten from our clients, it's also nice." Her utterance pricked my interest. "Is that so? What oil is that?" "Catherine Frankincense oil, ma'am. It is al-" "I don't want it, bring me Jasmine oil." I interrupted her, while willing the fury within me to dissipate. Just the mere mention of her stupid name was enough to agitate me. Who the hell did she think she was to have that kind of power over me? A useless gold digging slut like her. It was very obvious that she had married Alessandro for his wealth, and has deluded herself into thinking
