awk concat lines between 2 sequent digits

I would like to print string between two sequent digits and concatenate it into one single line.

input.txt

Code:
99 cord, rope, strand, twine,
twist, 100 strand, twine, twist,
cord, rope 101 strand, twine,
twist, twine, twist, cord, rope
105 cord, rope ,twi                                                 --> Here shall the script exit since it is larger than 102

output.txt

Code:
99 cord, rope, strand, twine, twist,
100 strand, twine, twist, cord, rope
101 strand, twine, twist, twine, twist, cord, rope

This is as far as i got
Code:
awk '/[0-9]/  {a=$0;c=1;next} /[0-9]/ {print a;a="";c=0;next}c==1{a=a"\n"$0} END{print a}'
