102. The Heart of Fire
LEO.
The sound and chatter from the Pack Hall
soon fade away as Azura and I walk down the silent paths. It’s late and most families with children left earlier, but many were still
there. The Five are right behind us, but they keep their distance, letting Azura and I have some space. I run my hand down her
waist and ass before threading her fingers with mine, and I kiss her hand softly.
She looks stunning as she gazes at the sky. “You’re calm.” I say quietly, observing the Goddess next to me.
She looks away from the moon and smiles at me. “I was just thinking about two moons ago... It’s crazy how much life has
changed in the last two months.” She murmurs, leaning her head against my shoulder.
“Yeah... I never saw any of this coming. I’m fucking blessed.” I murmur.
‘Oh baby, you’re definitely blessed.’ She smirks, giving me a wink. I lean down, kissing her.
‘Obviously.’ I respond arrogantly. She pull’s me down, kissing me harder and we share a quick moment before my watch beeps.
A reminder that we have only five minutes until the peak of the moon.
“Let’s get this over with.” Azura murmurs, taking a deep breath.
“No pressure. What did Dante say?” I ask as we reach the park. I don’t know why exactly I chose this location, but it was open,
empty, and currently isolated.
“Not much, he’s confident that I can manage this and you will be ok.” She replies as I glance back at the Five.
“Good luck, guys.” Ace says seriously, and I nod before we walk away.
“Did he say anything more? I mean Kiara lacks night vision in return for her gift... what are you lacking? Aside from the lack of
capability at keeping your walls up?” I mock, making her glare at me with those gorgeous eyes of hers. 3
“You do not want to piss me off right before I heal you, because the moment I heal you, I’ll get to work on making another voodoo
doll of you.” She frowns.

I smirk as we come to a stop. Her aura is actually faintly visible. I’m not sure if it’s because it is under the full moon, but it’s there,
a soft shimmering hue around her.
“I’m serious though. Did he not say?”
She shakes her head just as my phone beeps again. According to what we had worked out, she has about six minutes...
“Ok... let’s do this.” She whispers.
“You’ve got this.” I say quietly, as I cup her cheeks and kiss her deeply. Her heart is racing now, and she’s frowning in
concentration when I move back.
To think that just two months ago I was preparing for my death... Ready to leave. this world forever and then it changed to me
wanting to live on and spend my life. with her and our kids. I didn’t deserve her after what I had done, but she had accepted me
and here we are. 1
I can sense her anxiety and determination through the bond as she closes her eyes, she takes a deep breath and holds her
hands out to me. I take them slowly, giving them a squeeze.
I watch her, my heart racing as I see the glow begin to swirl around her, the gold and silver wrapping around her, before her eyes
fly open, blazing silver. The grass rustles and the branches of the trees whip around her. Her power rushes from her hands,
swirling up my arms and encasing me entirely. I feel an ice-cold sensation as it rushes through my body, spreading through my
arms and legs, and reaching the very tips of my fingers.
Her brows crease in concentration as I feel another surge of strength wash through me. My own strength comes forward, my
eyes blazing as my wolf roars in my head and I stagger back as both of our powers merge.
I can feel it, feel the pain that my body always feels, ebb away. I can feel my body rejecting the machinery I had installed to keep
me alive. I wanted to shift, and I struggled to keep control of my wolf. I let go of her hands, my claws coming out as I fall to my
knees. Her power continues to pour over me and the sheer weight of it keeps me on my knees. I look up at her. The blinding light
illuminates the night skies. I can see the faint outline of what looks like wings spread behind her.
Wings of fire that seem to take the shape of a heart... A piercing scream rips through the air as her power increases tenfold and

surges into the sky, emanating in waves around her. I see the swirls of the flames behind her move before I see a tiny part of her
left wing snap and shrivel into embers of ash.
It’s too blinding to look at, and I’m forced to avert my gaze.

I growl, plunging my hand into my chest. and ripping out the devices that had kept my body running. I hiss at the pain, but it’s
only there for a few seconds before my body heals up once more. I’ve never felt so powerful. It was like back when I first shifted
before I knew I was dying, but with the Alpha title and being mated to Azura, it was heightened even more. I can feel it rushing
through my veins, feeling my wolf on the brink of shifting and then the light that is illuminating the sky vanishes and Azura’s body
gives way as she faints.
“Azura!” I shout, catching her. Panic fills me for a split second until I realise her heart is beating steadily, and I sense no pain. The
Five are next to me within. seconds and Dan checks her pulse.
“She’s fine, it’s probably from the exhaustion.” He murmurs as Li Sheng nods, looking down at us.
“Your aura.... It’s grown.” He smiles.
slightly. He isn’t a man of many words, but I can sense his relief.
“Can we talk about the damn wings?
What the fuck was that?” Jax murmurs as Jin smiles.
“Our Luna is a miracle.” He states.
“Fuck yeah, and our man is completely fucking OK. I’m still pissed you kept this shit from us for ages.” Ace says.
I know... I had only told them recently and even then; I was keeping it to the bare minimum – no one else needed to know. I
didn’t want people knowing of Azura’s powers. I didn’t want unnecessary attention on her, because having such great powers
also meant putting her in direct danger...
I kiss her neck softly and stand up. “I’m taking her home.”
“Oh, about that... You’re going to the Villa.” Jax says, holding out some keys.
I cock a brow. “Why?”
“Winona told me to let you know.” Jax replies.
I take the key, not bothering to question him further. Winona and her planning... Looking down at the woman in my arms, I softly
kiss her lips as I hoist her up, resting her head against my chest. I feel a sliver of guilt rush through me, thinking tonight was
meant to be our night and here she is, unconscious in my arms..

‘She healed me. She’s exhausted herself and is unconscious, so I’m taking her home now.’ I say to Dad through the link.
‘Let the Westwood’s know.’
“That’s good news son, take care of her. I will pass the message on.’
I carry her to the west-side Villa, a place I had built ages ago, yet never really used.
It was too big for one person alone... I cock a brow, spotting the guards around the place. Seems like I am the only one who is in
the fucking dark.
Entering the Villa, I spot the rose petals and candles that line the hall. The path of petals is leading to the bedroom. I carry her
through, pushing open the door and place her on the bed that is also covered in red rose petals. Sitting down next to her on the
bed, I reach behind her, removing her necklace. Lifting her head, I slowly remove the hairpiece and pins.
Her breasts rise and fall slowly, and for a moment I simply admire her, frowning slightly as I remember how a part of the wing-like
flames seemed to snap and shrivel up when she healed me...
What exactly was that?
It niggled at my mind and despite it all; I feel like I’m missing something. It was like a part of her power vanished.
I sigh, running my fingers through her hair before I remove her heels, kissing the underside of her feet, before I stand up,
deciding to go shower. I have blood all over my torn shirt. Turning away from the bed, I take my shirt off before leaning over her. I
plant my hands on the bed and kiss her lips deeply.
A small whimper leaves her, and her eyes flutter open. I sit down on the bed, her heart thumps as she reaches for my neck,
sitting up. “Did it work?” She asks, her heart thundering as she looks me over.
I nod, cupping her face. “It fucking did.” I murmur, brushing my thumb along her smooth cheek.
She lets out a shuddering breath, hugging me tightly. “Thank the goddess.” She murmurs.

“Na, thank you.” I reply before tugging her head back and claiming her lips in a deep, intense kiss. She kisses me back with
equal passion and hunger before pulling away and kissing my jaw and neck.
“Thank the goddess...” She whispers again. She hugs me tight, and I pull her onto my lap, hugging her tightly. I can sense her
fear and relief as she plants several kisses on my neck.

“I ain’t going anywhere, Baby Girl,” I murmur with reassurance.
She nods but moves back. “Are you sure it worked?”
I smirk, “Well, my body rejected the machinery I had in place, and I’m still alive and functioning. So, I’d say it definitely did. I was
only alive because of the devices we had put in.” I say quietly, kissing the corner of her lips softly. Her heart races as she nods
slowly, and I continue to leave a trail of kisses down her face and neck. A soft sigh escapes her, and when I kiss the mark that
adorns her neck, she moans softly, turning away slightly.
I kiss her shoulder softly and look up at her when she moves away.
“What’s wrong?” I ask.
I wanted her, but she may be tired.
She smirks, deviously running her hand down my chest.
“I have something planned.” She whispers, kissing my lips. “But I need twenty minutes.”
“Am I getting my dance?” I cock a brow. I wanted to fuck her right now, but the fact that I may actually be in for a treat was even
more enticing.
“What better way to celebrate your health?” She replies seductively, kissing my neck one final time, before she stands
“I won’t argue with that...” I murmur huskily, squeezing her ass as I pull her between my legs and look up at her. “But are you
feeling ok?”
She nods slowly, frowning slightly. ” Yeah, it was weird. I don’t know what happened that I blacked out, but I’m completely fine
and I can’t wait to have a piece of you.” She bends down, kissing my lips. She is about to move back, when I grip hold of her hips
and look up at her.
“So, you felt no pain or anything?”
She raises an eyebrow and shakes her head. “No, so you can stop worrying.” She kisses my forehead before turning and
walking to the door. I’m about to ask where she was going when she stops at the door and looks right back at me.
“Don’t come until I tell you to.”

I cock a brow, my eyes raking over her ass. “That’s my line.” 3
She simply gives me a sexy smile before disappearing. I wonder where she’s going, but don’t question it, deciding to at least go
get this blood off me...
It’s fifteen minutes later, and I’m smoking a cigarette when she mind-links me, telling me to come down the hall to the lower floor
lounge and to take a seat on the couch. I obey, making my way down.
I stop at the top of the stairs, spotting the black petals that are scattered along the steps. I reach the bottom and push open the
door, the room is dimly lit, Azura’s seductive scent mixed with expensive fragrance fills the room. The large couch is there, and I
see a pole set up in the center of the room.
Oh now, this is going to be fucking fun...
“Sit down.” She says from behind the door. “And no looking back.”
The temptation to disobey is enticing but I obey, spotting the whiskey that sat beside the couch and the packet of cigarettes and
lighter. “Seems like this night is all about me...”
She chuckles as she shuts the door, ” Actually, it’s about us, because I’m going to love this.”
I drop onto the couch and that’s when I see her, walking to the pole, and my mind goes blank. She looks breathtaking, cratch that
fuck she looks out of this world. She was fucking ravishing earlier in her sequined dress, but right now, she looked a different
type of stunning. Dressed in a very risque strappy buckled body suit that squeezes her breasts, shaping those killer curves with
the black straps. From this side profile, my gaze falls on her ass, which is naked, save for the strap that is swallowed up by it.
Her hair is open, falling in front of her eye. On her feet, she wears a pair of killer heels, but they suit her, and she looks fucking
fine when she takes hold of the pole, doing a smooth spin.
“Time to show you exactly what your girl can do.”
I sit back, as another song comes on and I smoke my cigarette, before picking up the glass of whiskey as my sexy seductress
begins her dance...
A/N: I have some stuff going on and although I will try to post when I can, there may not be consistent updates for the coming
days.
