Amid the teasing, Vera blushed and began counting on her fingers. "First, he has to love me deeply. Deep enough to tattoo my name over his heart. "Second, he has to be brave. I heard that on Moonwatch Cliff, there is a briar rose bush. He must pick a stalk for me. "Third—" Before she could finish, the doors of the hall were suddenly pushed open. "Mr. Wren sends his regards and presents these gifts in honor of Miss Vera’s birthday. May she be well and happy."

"Oh, I almost forgot. I have something for you." He pulled a small pouch from his coat and placed it gently in her hands. Sally furrowed her brow slightly, a sudden mix of emotions stirring in her. "What is it?" "It's a phoenix. Take a look and see if you like it," Cloud said, his eyes bright with excitement, barely able to hide his eagerness. Sally pressed her lips together and opened the pouch. Inside was a carved phoenix, so lifelike it seemed ready to spread its wings. Painted with delicate colors, it was exquisitely beautiful. She didn't say a word, only traced the figure gently with her fingertips.

Vivian sat alone in the shadowed corner of the bar, watching strangers drift beneath the amber glow of the lights. She could not believe she had actually fallen for a rumor. “The real reason the Hayes and Carter families postponed the wedding? Sebastian’s ex was kidnapped. He’d rather call off the marriage than leave her to die.” One reckless sentence was all it took for her to book the first flight to Harbor City. Sebastian was the untouchable heir everyone admired—a fixture on the covers of financial magazines and the polished businessman delivering keynote speeches at charity galas. What could a man like him possibly be doing in a place like this? Vivian shook her head, set down her g

A burst of screams had erupted from the ward, followed immediately by the sound of things being smashed. James had quickly pushed his wheelchair inside, only to see the room in complete disarray. The nutritional supplements that Sophia had carefully chosen for Jessica had all been shattered across the floor, glass fragments scattering like countless sharp ice crystals, reflecting cold, blinding light under the sun. The photo that Sophia had specially taken at the wedding banquet of James and Jessica kissing had also been smashed against the wall. In the picture, Jessica's smiling face had been slashed diagonally by a jagged shard of glass, instantly becoming fragmented and eerie.

"Fantastic.” "Yes. If you stop being a brat, I can tell you what the Somnaris Bloom looks like before you kill someone." I inhaled sharply, biting back an insult. "Fine. Describe it." "Dark blue petals, thin stem, a little bigger than your palm. It smells faintly like wintermint. Look for that." I rummaged through the bag again, cursing Seraphina for not labeling anything, and finally found a jar with dried blue petals. "Got it."

He was so close I could smell expensive tobacco, rain, and a raw, heavy musk that made my pulse hammer in my throat. "I'm Franco," he murmured, his gaze dropping to my mouth. "And I think Lyle just made the biggest mistake of his pathetic life. He thinks he broke you. I think he just let you off the leash." The heat radiating off his body was a physical weight. I had just lost my husband, but standing this close to Franco, the only thing I felt was a sudden, violent ache between my thighs. He held out a heavy, matte black invitation. "The Apex Bloom. It's a survival game for the elite. The prize is a billion pounds. But it doesn't reward beauty, Lolita. It rewards the hunger of a woman who h

Rosette: Fine Rosette: Alexander No reply, I waited for what seemed like minutes but was actually just seconds. And when his reply finally came, I was hot and cold on a instant. Alexander: Good girl. Now go to sleep, it's late. We'll talk in the morning. It took me an embarrassingly long time to get my temperature under control and type a reply. Rosette: Goodnight Alexander, we'll talk in the morning. Alexander: Goodnight Flower. Maybe I'd take a while of reading and rereading and maybe screaming in my pillow before I finally go asleep, because that was very necessary.

“Let’s talk about bouquets. I want white roses. With eucalyptus. Maybe a few lilacs if they're in season.” Tessa raises a brow. “You’re really leaning into this whole ethereal Luna vibe.” I smile down at the page, my chest buzzing with warmth. “I am going to be Luna soon. Wow, that's weird to say outloud.” “Just as weird to know you won't be with me anymore,” Tessa says.

“No. It moved too quickly. Would have been good though. White blooms were on sale, though. They should be arriving next week.” A few other men joined the little circle, casting lecherous and curious looks at me. “Don’t mind her,” Mordecai said, “I’m just keeping an eye on little Matt’s plaything. Any other news?” “Devereaux Botanicals got the last bit of dark bloom roses and hemp that was on the market,” one of them said with a snarl. “That son of a bitch, Felix swooped in like he knew when it would go on sale. I guess those Warhammer contacts are treating him well.”

‘There are such places’ ivory wondered, she looked at the second mission and had the urge to laugh now she knew why literarily no one picked the two mission. The second mission was about bringing a rare running plant named blohy, it was a weird name, catching blohy was next to impossible for phase one-three to catch them. A phase four could but it would expend his energy and they were basically no use to them so phase four and above never caught them. ‘What if I fail the mission or if I bring herbs from there’ ivory asked. ‘No problem then, it’s just that you’ll be charged for using the portal’ the guy answered.
