Chapter 188: A Dragon Could Stop Them

      After all her time thinking, Ilona still wasn't sure what she would do.  She wasn't sure she would be able to support Mason in a plan that could end with him losing his life.

      She knew they couldn't remain at odds with one another, however.  She would have to talk to him, really talk, and together they would have to come to some kind of solution.  She hated things as they were now.

      Time ticked by achingly slow for her now, waiting for her brother and the man she loved to return.

      A few at a time, the pirates had gotten tired and given up on their waiting in order to get some sleep.  They were all eager to hear what the Prince and the young pirate had discovered while scouting for the dragons, but they couldn't keep their eyes open any longer.
