Alpha Leo And The Heart Of Fire Chapter 99 By Moonlight Muse

The Beginning of a Beautiful Night

LEO.

I pull away and he squeezes my shoulder.

“I may not be like the fucker who can see

a lot of shit, but you are going to do great things.” He smirks and I cock a brow, but before I can even reply, I hear footsteps

and sense a powerful aura. 5

“Am I interrupting?” I turn to see none

other than Dante walking over to us. 4

“You got here.” Alejandro says, placing a

hand on his son’s arm. I see the faint

glimpse of concern on his face, but it’s gone as fast as it came. “How was your journey?”

Dante sighs and shakes his head, “I found nothing. I’m not seeing anything about him. It’s just a blank. The only time

I see him is when it involves Azura and

even those are distorted.”

I look up sharply as both men frown.

“Judah?” I ask.

Dante nods. “I was trying to get answers, but there’s nothing.” That was fucking weird… He smiles faintly.

“I thought you’d have some answers, or i s it that you just can’t say?” I ask.

“I can’t see all. Some things just come to

me, but as far as tracking him, I’m coming up blank.”

“I would have assumed that we knew all

species… and we fucking know he isn’t a vampire. I’m pretty much lost in what he can be.” I frown as Alejandro nods his

agreement.

“Yeah, I fucking thought so too.’

Dante shoves his hands into his pockets

and stares at the dark skies, the full moon

visible. “The Gods are at work. Tell me, if

Selene alone has put blessed wolves,

Lycans and Demi-Gods on this earth,

then what’s saying the other gods aren’t building their own armies?” He asks quietly. 4

“That shit makes no fucking sense.” Alejandro replies, but it does… Dante’s words ring through my mind and with them I get a strong sense of foreboding

too… 4

“Dad!” Skyla’s voice came snapping me from my thoughts, and Alejandro cocks a

brow.

“Better go see what Lucifer’s incarnate wants.” He says, making both of us smirk.

We see Skyla step out, frowning over something, and I remember her flashing

eyes. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“What is she?” I ask as both father and daughter disappear inside.

Dante chuckles. “A Lycan.”

I frown despite my shock. “Isn’t there only ever supposed to be one alive at a time?” I ask, Lycan’s were rare, one born every few centuries and now suddenly two in one lifetime? 5

He shrugs, leaning against the wall. ” Yeah, but there’s also never been a female Lycan, so either the rule doesn’t apply or when dad died, it counted as if h e was not meant to be… I don’t really know. I’m not all-knowing.”

“Sorry, I guess it gets tiring when

everyone expects you to know shit, right?” I ask quietly, watching him sharply.

His face betrays nothing as he smiles faintly. And I know I’m fucking right. ”

Yeah… I guess so. You clock on pretty

fast.”

“Thank fuck for that shit.” I remark. “I

often used to wonder why there were so many powerful beings being placed here i n such a short time… Kiara, Scarlett, Liam, Alejandro… you… Something is at work or is going to come into play soon and I feel like we’re preparing for something.” 5

“I like how you stated that and not

asked.” He chuckles.

I also like how you didn’t answer that

statement.

I say nothing, but the fact he didn’t deny i t meant there has to be something larger a

t work, or to come. The moment of unease passes when Dante speaks.

“So, how do you feel about becoming a dad again? I swear I can’t picture that feisty miracle as a mother.” He smiles, glancing up towards the bedroom

window.

How he knew that was my room, and that Azura was there right now, was fucking weird, but I didn’t question it.

“You’ve called her that before. Is it

because of the way she was kept alive and transferred to Scarlett’s womb?” I ask.

Dante smiles. “Damn, you really are observant… and I will rely on that.” He murmurs more to himself before shaking his head. “Azura’s birth was sabotaged, she wasn’t meant to live… or someone

didn’t want her to… But Hecate is a good friend of Selene’s, despite their species. hating each other for so long, a bridge that is now pretty much mended by mating their species. In other words, Delsanra and Rayhan. It was from one of her daughter’s descendants that Azura

lives.” 5

I almost lose the second half of his words

as I focus on what he said about Azura. M y heart races at the thought of her not

being around, imagining life without her.

“Because she’s the heart of fire?”

“Partially.” He winks at me, and I know

this conversation is over. “Well, the time

has come to take your first title.” 11

He pushes away from the wall just as Delsanra steps out of the mansion. She scans the grounds before spotting Dante

and rushes to meet him.

“Dante!” She smiles as Dante closes the gap between them and encloses her tiny frame in a hug. 3

I guess I better go get ready for tonight

too…

An hour and a half had passed, and I had showered and gotten ready. I’m dressed i n a black suit with a satin grey shirt, and my hair is slicked back. The Pack Hall is unrecognisable, with lights, flowers and

vines hanging from the ceiling and around the walls. The room was dazzling

under the bright lights. The centre was left open for dancing, with tables surrounding the dance floor. There is a stage at the far side with a two-seater sofa and a table holding a cake to the side

on it.

Yeah, this shit looks like a full-blown

wedding… The tables are laden with

flowers, candles and elegant dinnerware.

Music plays in the background and many pack members are here, heck I think everyone is here save the Westwoods, Kiara and her girls. My own boys are here too, all five of them, along with Ace and

Jin’s mates.

I glance at Jax. “She didn’t want to

come?” I ask about Kareena.

I knew the answer already. She isn’t really in any state to want to attend a celebration. “Na, she just…” He shakes

his head as he drinks his glass of whiskey.

‘She what?” I ask through the link.

‘Doesn’t matter. Tonight is your night.

Embrace it.’

‘I’m not giving you an option, Jax.’ I growl through the link, making him

frown.

‘Fine. She did say life carries on for

everyone, but the mate of the deceased.’ H

e answers quietly.

I frown, feeling my wolf’s restlessness too, I get that… we were here, ready to

celebrate a union… but she is still

mourning her mate… I glance over at Maria, she looks beautiful, but I knew she

was still hurting. So many years have

passed, but she has lived. I knew she did

because she is stronger than most

women. She was a miracle to even be

alive for so long without having taken a chosen mate. Kind of like Dad, I guess…

But Endora was powerful enough to break Dad’s bond with Mom. And although I knew Raihana and Delsanra had tried to help her via magic, the bond was still stronger than that magic. Maria was alive because she was strong herself.

‘We will figure something out soon.’ I say quietly and Jax nods.

Alejandro now enters, and I curse,

making the five look at me.

“What’s your issue?” Ace asks, his arm

around Sera.

I don’t respond, glaring at Alejandro instead. The fuck? To my irritation, he

was wearing a satin shirt too… Fuck man. 8

He spots me flicking his black shirt’s

collar, and he smirks, but before he can even say shit, the song comes to an end and Dad’s voice fills my head.

“The Westwoods are on their way.’

My heart races, and I look at the doors waiting for her entrance. We hadn’t talked all evening. To the point, I was surprised she hadn’t even contacted me once, but then again, she was busy with all the women and the shit women do to get ready. But I wasn’t going to deny that I was impatient to see her, wanting to see my gorgeous girl.

The doors open and the quintuplets step i n, all eyes turning to them. They wore smart pants and aside from Renji and Carter, the other three were in formal shirts, not bothering with jackets. A new song begins playing, the music slow and deep.

“The Luna’s in the house.” Theo says with a smirk before they split, stepping aside as everyone turns to the doors, falling silent.

Corrado and Katara step inside after the quintuplets. Corrado is smiling excitedly,

as he turns towards the door. I smell her first, and then I hear the sound of her

heels, and the thudding of her heart, as she approaches. I can feel her excitement, her nervousness and her happiness through the bond. I see the glitter of a dress, and that is when my eyes fall on the most ravishing woman I have ever lain eyes on. She stands there between her parents, looking like the epitome of beauty.

My heart thunders as my eyes slowly rake over her, my throat becomes dry, and my wolf growls in approval in my head. She looks out of this fucking world; she’s wearing a strapless sequin champagne gown that is dipped in a curve at the

breasts, showing off a lot of her cleavage which only makes me want to fucking

devour her.

The dress cinches in at her waist, and is emphasising her curved hips. There’s a top layer skirt with swirls and waves of

glitter over it. A diamond necklace and earring set adorn her, with a matching bracelet. Her hair is curled and pinned back in a quiff, with a few strands

framing her face. Her skin is glowing, her lips painted a deep blood red, begging to b e kissed and when those gorgeous eyes of hers flick up to meet my own, all sounds

fade away.

It’s just her and me.

The night is ours.
