Chapter 400 Tongue Maps
The next second, Landon’s kiss crashed down on her. It was wild-utterly out of control..
His tongue pried her mouth open with unrelenting force, claiming her breath inch by inch, like he was
determined to drown her in the waves of all the restraint and yearning he'd bottled up until now.
Tessa threw her arms around his neck and kissed him back with equal fervor, pouring all her joy and relief into it.
The crystal ice of Starfall Lake trembled with a high-pitched hum. Meteor fragments from the lakebed rose into
the air, forming a spiraling star map in the night sky-cach glowing point like a sprinkle of golden dust blessing
their kiss.
In the distance, a pine branch cracked under the weight of snow; startled glimmerfinches burst into flight, flitting
over their heads. Phosphorescent dust from their tail feathers landed in Tessa’s hair, scattering like crushed
diamonds.
They kissed until they were both gasping for breath, their warm exhales mingling and vanishing into the forest
chill.
Suddenly, Landon hooked his arm behind Tessa’s knees and lifted her off the ground, turning to press her against
the trunk of an ancient snow cedar.

The moment her legs wrapped around his waist, she could feel it-his raw, simmering wolf strength thrumming
through him, barely held back by fabric. His wolf soul was trembling with ecstatic joy.
His mouth moved from her lips to her jawline, then trailed down her neck, biting and grazing until it reached her
collarbone. He finally paused just above the gland at the back of her neck, where his canines teased the skin-like
a rehearsal for the mark he was about to leave.
Tessa’s cheeks flushed pink; an involuntary moan slipped from the corners of her lips.
She tilted her head back, baring the length of her delicate neck. Moonlight bathed her racing pulse in silver;
Landon’s tongue followed that shimmer like a path, drawing the scent of her lilies-of-the-valley deep into his
lungs.
“I've wanted to do this for so long...” Landon’s voice was low and ragged, vibrating against her skin and sending
shivers down her spine. “I've wanted to kiss you like this... to make you mine... to cover every y inch of you with
my scent...”
-His nose brushed her flushed earlobe; then his mouth returned to hers, slower this time-as if he were
mapping her with his tongue. From the corner of her lips to their soft peaks, from the ridges of her teeth to the
tender curve of her palate, he marked each spot with the warm trace of his pine pheromones.
Tessa matched his rhythm, her hands clutching at the hair at the back of his neck.
Clear strands of saliva slid down the corners of their entwined lips, but they clung to each other like two halves
of a magnetized moon-impossible to separate.
Another pine branch gave way with a sharp crack; a clump of snow dropped straight onto their heads.
The sudden cold broke the fever of their kiss. They both gasped and blinked, eyes fluttering open.
For a beat, they just looked at each other-then, at the exact smoment, they both let out soft, breathless
laughs.

Chapter 400 Tongue Maps
Landon brushed a light kiss to the corner of her mouth, then threw his head back and let out a long how into the
sky. It didn’t sound like an Alpha’s warning call; it sounded like a boy who'd lost his mind with joy
The next instant, the shadow of the Obsidian Crystal Wolf emerged behind him. Jet-black fur began to ripple out
across his skin.
Behind Tessa, the White Wolf's image shimmered into view. Emma's consciousness surged to the surface silver-
white fur sprouted from beneath her skin, and in the blink of an eye, she transformed into the elegant White Wolf

Flex-majestic and proud-stood tall as the Obsidian Crystal Wolf. His pelt gleamed like forged steel, and in his
amber eyes, the reflection of the White Wolf flickered.
He padded forward and gently bumped Emma’s forehead with his nose. She cheekily caught his car in her teeth
and gave it a playful tug.
The two wolves greeted each other with affection, then shot off like arrows into the snow-covered forest.
They ran wild and free, chasing through the frozen woodland. Crushed beneath their paws, the glowing moss left
behind a trail of soft blue light.
Flex deliberately slowed, letting Emma catch his tail between her teeth. Then, with a sudden twist, he pinned her
to the snowy ground and nudged her chin with his damp nose. Emma batted at the pine branches with her paw;
snow cascaded down in a flurry, landing in Flex’s dark mane, where it instantly melted into glittering droplets
from the heat of his body.
The White Wolf gazed up at the stoic black wolf who allowed her every mischief; a joyful yip rose from her throat,
childlike and unguarded. Even the swirl of snow around her wagging tail sparkled with untamed delight.
In the distance, startled glimmerfinches took to the sky again, their wings mingling with the wolves’ streaking
shadows, forming a living, breathing starstream-as if the entire forest had awakened to celebrate the dance of
these ancient wolf souls.
