I Brought You Frankincense Vine Novels & Stories

Her endless arrogance. "...Everything has its cost." The fire crackled again and filling the empty room with its quiet sound. When Vince returned, he was already had the vial in his hand. I could already smell its bitter smell even from afar. It was the sharp and bitter scent of Saverna leaves. "Alpha." Vince called before giving it to me. I stood up from behind the desk.

I thanked her and paid her price, however while I was about to turn to leave she handed me an additional wooden small piece which was made of an oak tree…. “Ah… I don’t need it Madame” I told her But she simply gestured me with smile and said that I will require it in future… she seemed kind lady because of which I tried to pay her price for it but she denied to accept it… At last I thanked her for her kindness and left with Draco, we than purchased few dried herbs from another herbal shop, from a butcher shop we purchased two small bottle of black cock blood, from a local shop we also purchased few blocks of cinnabar and pink salt.

“Come in. You look lovely.” I felt my cheeks flush even more beneath his praise. “Thank you,” I managed, stepping inside. As I did, I held out the bottle of wine I had brought.

“He doesn’t have to rush.” “You sound like you know him,” she said with a little chuckle. “Anyway, give my love to whoever you’re cooking for.” I thanked her and moved on, buying some dried berries, a slab of cured meat, and fresh flatbread. I even found a young vendor selling imported spices—ones I hadn’t tasted in years. A pouch of smoky-red fireroot went into my basket immediately. I’d use it sparingly.

I just needed to pick up some supplies I was running low on for my daily ritual. As I entered the store, the scent hit me like a ton of bricks. They had to be close. My heart started pounding, and my hands became sweaty. I did my best to clear my head and get what I came here for.

"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.

“Dear sweet Ivy. Are you hungry, dear?” The vines stirred with excitement as the witch pulled the vial from her pocket.
