All Chapters of The Chronicles of Wolves and Fire: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

What Pearl found was anticipation, warmth, and a predatory kind of hunger. There was no jealousy, nothing detached or aloof to hint that this was only about lust for them. The opposite.There was such tenderness shining down at her from Vergel’s inhumanly purple eyes. Finn’s golden ones shone with adoration and desire he made no effort to hide or downplay. Even Ethan’s fiery gaze was soft on hers, that hypnotic cerulean and orange sunburst stare holding an unexpected amount of affection.Emotion tightened her throat, making her voice come out husky. “Yes.”Before the word had fully left her lips, their hands were on her, Vergel at her front, Finn at her back. She’d half expected Ethan to join them, but he stepped back, his avid gaze never leaving her.

Two weeks later. "When," Finn gritted out. "When will she be ours, Vergel?" "Soon, Finn, but we'll wait, and for the time being, we need to be cautious; now that the king knows we found the princess, we both know we can't risk her life until we find Ethan." It had been two weeks since they discovered who Pearl truly was. It wasn't a proud moment for them because one second they were standing in front of the alchemist and the next everything went dark and Ethan and the princess were gone. They initially thought Ethan had taken Pearl, but they later discovered that Ethan had been kidnapped and the princess had gone missing. It had been a terrible week since Vergel and Finn had wondered why King Edward had not intervened. And now, they watched the woman, they watched Princess Pearl. The woman brought to mind a slender tree as she moved, its long limbs reaching, dappled in sunlight. Slender and graceful, she moved her body to the music like a birch tree in the wind. It was called bal

Pearl hesitated. Of course she did. Of course, there was a secret part of her that craved attention from someone who regarded her as his moon and stars. She missed hugs, and she really missed kisses. Hell, she missed sex. A vibrator was great, but a man was better, and it had only been herself and her vibrator for years now. "Okay, yes, I will admit that." She grasped Katty’s shoulders. "But I don’t want to be trapped here against my will.""You’re not trapped here, at least not yet.""What do you mean, not yet?""You have two weeks to decide if you want to stay and honor the mating bond. Kind of like a trial period. You’re locked here for that amount of time. At the end of it, a doorway will open. You decide if you want to step through it and return home, which isn't your real home."

 Pearl gave a little yelp when Finn grabbed her and pulled her close. A ravenous expression had clouded his face and she suddenly realized just how hard he’d been fighting to hold himself back from her. His arms were like tree trunks with muscles. There was no way she could pull away from him. Although after her initial surprise, she wasn’t all that sure she wanted to pull away.He dragged her up against his warm, hard chest, and she melted. It had been a long time since a man had touched her and she’d forgotten what it felt like, what a man smelled like. It was nice. Especially since for all the force and brawn that Finn possessed, he was gentle. His warm mouth slanted over hers, lips working her lips, slowly sipping and tasting her. The action tightened her stomach, made it flutter, and affected areas of her body just south. She drew her hands up from his wrists, over the bulges of his arms, all the way to his broad should

Finn was counting her as his mate in that sentence and as one of the Lycans. It should have felt wrong, but somehow, it didn’t.Timothy nodded. "As you see fit." "Finn and Almera, I’ll need all of you.""Wait a minute. Why Almera?" Pearl stepped toward Timothy. "This sounds dangerous.""It is dangerous," Almera answered, "But I’m a protector. My eyes, like those of a hawk, can see great distances. I’m a true helper and happy to do it. I told you, Almera, that the men protect their women here, but they don’t coddle them. They know we’re strong and capable, and they rely on us." Okay, maybe, but she was still worried about her sister’s safety. "But... what about the shields? Alme
