I Brought You Frankincense Vine Novels & Stories

“These are mine?” Marco shrugs, lounging against the greenhouse doorframe. “You asked. He delivered.” I laugh once in disbelief. “I didn’t ask for this.” “Didn’t you?” he says, voice lazy, but his eyes follow me. I kneel, my hands hovering over the leaves, and the names fall out of me. Lavender. Mint. Hibiscus. Fiddle-leaf fig. My lips move, remembering how I used to whisper them on my balcony, checking soil, measuring sunlight, begging those fragile things not to die on me.

This too was welcomed. She moved calmly to Ali’s side, pulling out a strip of silver vials from my belt, some tonics I'd gotten from Ryanna. Not the good stuff like Cyclis Bloom, which I refused, but potent enough to make a difference. ‘I should’ve gotten that Cyclis Bloom… tsk.’ “Drink,” I said, handing one each to Ali, his woman, and uncorking one for myself. Ali sniffed it, eyes narrowed. “What is it?”

Before the silence can even get the chance to turn awkward, Zen pulls something from the pocket of his jacket, holding it in front of my face. “What is this?” I take the glass bottle from him, swirling the brown fluid inside Zen casts the door a glance, before turning his attention to me again “The purest quality vanilla extract.” I raise my brows at him “And you’re giving it to me because…?” Zen wanders to the chairs the doctor and I were sitting into, and pulls one out, giving me an expectant glance. Seriously, what with him and wanting to get comfortable everywhere? Regardless, I go ahead and take a seat. He settles on the armrest instead of the other chair, making me jump a little.

As soon as the door is open, a delicious scent of food hits my nose, and I inhale deeply. Cocking my brow, I smirk while looking at Drew. "Already opening her door huh?" His face falls, so I quickly change my teasing tone and say, "I uh, bought this for Cassandra and Tarra." I show him the bottle of red wine, earning a small smile as he gestures for me to come in.

The rest, live it for me. -I'll do my best. By the way, this week, I received some bottles of green wine from my land. I'll send you some. I know you like it. - I really appreciate it. Thank you for your attention. As he is about to hang up, Saphira returns with the coffee.

"We are entrapped in the furnace. Leaving the palace is not possible," he informed him. "Do something, Old Seer. My wife is dying," he pleaded. The helpless Old Seer was moved and looked at Caroline. "We all need help presently. I think some herbs may help at the moment," he stated and walked out lazily. He would have been healthier if he had been cared for. He returned after a few minutes with Chaste tree - Vitex agnus-castus. It was obvious that Caroline would take it like that without washing because of the absence of water.

Almost immediately, a strong waft of medicinal fragrance started spreading throughout the entire room. Elizabeth took a deep breath, feeling that an invisible weight had been lifted off her chest. It made her feel more energized and awake. "What's this amazing thing?" she asked curiously. "I made the incense myself. It has calming properties." Once Yvonne was done packing her stuff, she got ready to leave. Elizabeth quickly called out to her from behind. "Um, t—thank you." She'd mumbled the last two words quickly and softly, as though she'd found it difficult to utter them.

I tell the old former King, my eyes concentrating on the room, still looking for what I needed. “Take whatever you need. I will leave you to it.” Hunji's father tells me before departing the storeroom and leaving me to my own devices. Aimlessly, but purposefully I wander around the room. My lips begin a slow upturn as I spy what I need. “Black haw, false unicorn root, cramp bark, and wild yam root,” I say to myself picking up each ingredient.

However, even as I seek the excuse, I know the truth is that I have no desire to truly know her. Opening a drawer in the table beside the bed, I reach in and remove a vial. “What’s that?” she asks. “A musk-scented oil I purchased during one of my travels. The seller assured me it would bring heightened pleasure. I thought to test it on you.” “If the pleasure you bring me is heightened any further, l am likely to expire on the spot.”

My chest weight was slightly lifted. I took off my earrings and the fancy ring on my pinky finger and went over to lie on the table, barefoot and wearing nothing but a long flowy gown. Immediately, Ivy flickered her wrist and the candles lit themselves around the room in a perfect circle. Soft flames with blue tips that made words shadows across the walls. “Here, drink this." She offered a cup. “What's…. This?" I asked “Bindweed. Rue. A bit of moon ash. Things you should never touch without gloves, unless you want your hands to melt off"
