Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Alpha Leo And The Heart Of Fire Chapter 100 By Moonlight Muse

100. Where I Belong

AZURA.

A lot was riding on tonight, but despite the weight of what was to come, I was happy and so excited fortonight.

Tonight, I will join my new family, and be bound to Leo officially before this pack, my family and lovedones. I walk between Mama and Dad approaching the venue. The full moon is high in the sky and acool breeze blows past us. Tonight is so

peaceful…

“You look beautiful in blue,” I tell Mama,

admiring her sexy royal blue gown.

“Of course, it will compliment your eyes in the photos.” She says, smiling at me.

I nod, too emotional to say more. I look down at myself, although all I could see were my boobs thatwere pushed up in

this fitted dress. I don’t think I have ever felt so beautiful, save the times Leo makes love to me.

My dress is fitted to my thighs, and hugs all my curves, including my bump, although the rest of thewomen said that just made it look even better. I was

surprised that I agreed. This bump was proof of Leo’s and my union. A baby we made, together.

I feel nervous as I walk down the beige carpet that was rolled from the mansion

gates all the way to the Pack Hall. Winona

had gone above and beyond to create the perfect night. There are flowers and

lights lining the path, too.

The quintuplets walk ahead, laughing and talking as they comment on the architectural designs –admiring them, although Jayce is pretty quiet, hands in the pockets of his black pants, he’s still lookingaround, too. He and Theo are in

black, whilst the other three are in beige

to match me. Only Carter and Renji have suit jackets on though.

Corrado keeps smiling shyly as he looks back at me, and I smile back, holding my

hand out to him.

“No no Mommy, you have to walk alone, because you’re the bride!” He says,

making me blush.

Bride… Well, this is literally the werewolf

version of a marriage…

Dad chuckles, “It sure is, son.”

I smile, remembering the moment

between them earlier….

(FLASHBACK)

“Azura Mommy’s, Mommy and Daddy…” Corrado says slowly, looking at them

with interest.

Mama nods, patting the seat beside her. ”

Yes, so that makes us your

grandparents.” She says as Corrado sits down and stares at her before slapping

his forehead.

“So many grandpas and grandmommys to remember!” He replies before smiling happily. “I like it. Iwon’t forget you because you are Mommy’s mommy and

Daddy!”

“Of course not, but not only that, but we’re your grandparents, too.” Dad

smiles at him as he ruffles his hair.

Corrado nods fervently.

“Yes!”

(END OF FLASHBACK)

He had become mine in such a short

time, as if he has always been a part of my life. I love this cherub.

We reach the hall, and the boys enter first.

“Luna’s in the house.” Theo says. confidently, my heart is thundering as I look ahead at the brightly litvenue.

It looks gorgeous, and Mama gives me a soft kiss on the top of my hair. “You got this, baby girl.” Shemurmurs as Corrado and Katara head inside after the

quintuplets.

I look over my shoulder, trying not to get

emotional when I see my siblings, Raven,

Dante, and my girls. All of them watching

me with so many emotions.

“Go on.” Kataleya ushers me, smiling

softly.

I nod slowly as they form a semi-circle

behind me, and I step inside with Dad and Mama by my side.

I feel his gaze upon me before I even look up. My heart skips a beat as I stare at the

man before me. He always looks beyond

handsome, but tonight… I swallow as I stare at him. There’s something more,

the way he looks at me with such intense raw emotion that he doesn’t try to hide in

those icy blue eyes that devour me. His

hair is slicked back, save a stray strand

that falls in front of his forehead, and

he’s wearing a black suit with a dark grey

satin shirt that he fills in nicely with his

sexy body.

His eyes are on me, and he doesn’t need to say anything. His face says it all…

To have someone so deeply in love with

you, that all he can think about is you. Our eyes lock and my heart thuds as I stare at him, and then helifts the barrier

of our bond that he had put up between

Letting his emotions flood me like a

dam that has given way and I can’t

breathe…

These emotions are so intense, so

powerful, that my eyes sting with tears.

There are not enough words to ever express them… There was so much more than love, passion,hunger… Far too

many to ever put a name to.

I move towards him, and he does the same, closing the gap between us. The moment he reaches me,he grips my face, cupping the back of my neck as I arch my neck back, and he presses his forehead tomine as he leans over me. I close my eyes for a second, sparks dancing through me.

‘Fuck girl… you look like a Goddess.’ He whispers through the link.

‘One fit for a God before me.’ I reply shakily, and then his lips are on mine. Moving against mine with apassion that makes me melt beneath his hold, one

hand leaves my neck as it snakes around my waist, and he lifts me off the ground.

My heart thunders as I lock my arms around his neck, kissing him with as

much passion as I can muster. His arm

wraps around my thighs, lifting me higher until he’s standing straight. He grips my neck, his tonguerunning along my lips. I flick it with my own, my core clenching as pleasure ripples through me.

I think I see the flash of a camera go off, but I don’t care, as we kiss until I’m

gasping for air, and that’s when Leo

moves back.

“This is why I chose super matt lipstick.” Raihana’s voice comes, making me laugh weakly as Leoslowly puts me down and I

realise all eyes are on us.

“Wow… I think Mommy and Daddy made more babies.” Corrado whispers, making many peoplechuckle. 7

Everyone comes over and I see Raihana

inspecting my lipstick before she gives me a thumbs up and I turn to Marcel, who is watching us withan emotional

smile on his face.

“You look beautiful, Azura. You both look incredible together.” He adds before he comes over, huggingus both.

I close my eyes, hugging him back, trying to control my tears and today I don’t

blame my pregnancy.

“You really do look out of this world.” Leo murmurs, his arm snaking around my waist as he pulls meclose. “You look fucking unbelievable.”

“You too Baby.” I reply, running my fingers down his chest.

Dad and Mama approach, and compliment Leo before some of the others approach, complimenting us.

“Azura.” I turn, smiling to see Atlas

there. There’s no unease inside of me and

I confidently walk over to him and hug him. He hugs me back tightly, his heart

racing. “You look beautiful.”

“Thank you. You look handsome too.” I say, he did too, handsome in a grey suit.

Mama and Dad greet him, and Liam

shakes his hand.

“Nice to see you again, Atlas.” Dad says and I realise they were always ready to welcome him into thefamily. Even if Fred hurt them, and betrayed Indigo, they

were better people than I am, and all I can

do is strive to be like them.

Only then does Marcel run his hand

through his hair and turn to the stage.

“Let’s get the ceremony done first.” He

says.

“Time to take your titles Alpha, Luna.”

Jax adds with a wink, before Leo smirks

and looks down at me.

“Ready?” He asks.

I nod and we walk towards the stage

when I almost trip over the underskirt of the dress and my shoe slips off. I

stumble, but Leo manages to save me. His grip on my waist is firm. 5

“You ok?” He asks as I blush and nod.

“Yeah.” I say, as a few who have moved forward, slowly step back again. “Wait.” I add, turning back.

Leo stops and he turns his head to look at me. I spot my shoe a foot away and lift my dress, ready toslip my shoe back on, when Leo walks past me and picks up my

satin bridal heel.

He goes down on one knee and my heart thunders as a sense of déjà vu overcomes me. A similarmoment that happened nearly sixteen years ago. A moment from Kia and Alejandro’s wedding. Helooks up at me as he holds the shoe straight. 10

I slowly place my hand on his shoulder, lifting my dress with my other hand and

stick my foot out, blushing at the awes and swoons I hear from the crowd, but

my eyes are on my man who now slips the shoe onto my foot for me.

“Thank you, Leo.” I whisper. Our eyes

lock for a moment before he bends down, kissing my ankle softly and then stands

Goddess, I think I just fell in love with

this man all over again… 5

I glance to the side, seeing Dad and Liam watching me, both wearing similar

smiles on their faces.

‘He’s a good one, and you can see how

much he loves you.’ Dad says through the

mind link.

‘You approve?’

‘I do.’ He says quietly, making my throat dry up. I turn my gaze to Liam, realising I

wanted him to be happy too… 3

‘He’ll treat you right, I’m happy for you Zu.” Liam adds softly as Mama and

Raven smile, and I realise this may be the

last time I will probably be mind-linking

them.

I glance at the stage where Marcel is waiting. Ace holds the box that contains the knife for theceremony, and I realise this is it. My eyes blur and I turn to Leo.

“I’ll be right back.” I whisper to Leo, who nods, a faint smirk on his face. I let go of him, hurrying over tomy family.

‘I love you guys.’ I whisper, hugging Dad and Liam together. ‘I’m going to miss our mind link groupchat.’ My voice breaks as they hug me tight.

‘Me to Angel. I love you too. Your dad will always love you.’ Dad whispers, caressing my hair.

I nod as a few tears leave my eyes.

Liam says nothing, his heart racing as he

simply kisses my forehead. I can feel his unspoken emotions as I slowly pull away and turn to Ravenand Mama, hugging

them both.

They were two of the most incredible

women I knew. ‘I love you.’ I say to them.

‘Mind link or not, different packs or the

same… we will always be family.’ Raven whispers, fighting her emotions. ‘Go

become the Luna you were born to be.’

I nod as I crouch down and look at Katara.

“I’m going to miss seeing you every day. Make sure to annoy your dad and brothers for me, ok?” Iwhisper, making

Liam chuckle.

She smiles, giving me a wink. “No

problem.”

“That’s my girl.” I laugh, and hug her tight. She is the only one dressed in the

same colour as me.

My little princess…novelbin

I stand up and look at the quintuplets.

They may not have the mind link, but I was going to miss them.

“You look ugly when you cry.” Jayce

remarks, but he’s the first one to walk

over and hug me. “If he hurts you,

remember you have an army of Westwood’s behind you. We can take the Rossis any day.” 4

“Ooo burn.” Someone says.

“She has an army of Rossis behind her, too.” Skyla adds confidently. I smile at her, Kat and Song.Searching for Dante, who stood in the back, keeping his distance, since people found it hard to be

in the same room as him. His aura is

lower since Raihana and Delsanra had

cast suppression spells on him just so he

could attend.

I blow him a kiss and he winks at me. 3

Leo simply smirks as the other boys come and hug me. Renji was the last, and he smiles at me beforehe leads me back to

the stage, the other four and Dad right behind us.

“You are going to be an incredible Luna.” Renji says. “You were made for this.”

I smile at him, whispering my thank you before Dad takes my hand and looks at Leo, his eyes full ofunshed tears.

“It gets harder… I thought giving away one daughter already might make it easier … but it doesn’t.” Hesays quietly, hugging me once more. I hug him back.

No matter what, no one can replace my father. Dad moves back, brushing my tears lightly away, beforetaking my hand and looking up at Leo.

“Treat her right.” He says quietly.

Leo nods as he holds his hand out to me

and I take it, stepping back onto the stage.

“I always will.” Leo promises Dad, who smiles at us before stepping away.

“You two ain’t ever getting mates.” I

hear Alejandro mutter and I smile, taking one last look around; Damon and Robyn

give me a smile, Zack and Taylor too… 3

Taking a deep breath, I turn my attention to my future.

“Ready?” Leo asks softly.

I nod and the music is turned down as

Marcel becomes serious, looking at Leo

with pride and happiness.

“I have never been happier than I am today, to see my son rise to the position that he so deserves. Towitness my son

become the man that he is today. I am

proud of you, son, so proud of you. You

are a man that cares for all, no matter

how much you hide it. You are one of the most compassionate people I know. You are an Alpha withoutthis title, and have been so for a while.” Marcel began, the

room is silent as Leo and I stand opposite

one another. Leo’s hands are on my waist.

“But tonight you will take that title and

with it, the world will know Alpha Leo

Herrmann Rossi, my son, and the son of the people. I Marcel Rossi relinquish my title and rank asAlpha of the Sangue pack to you, my son, Leo Rossi. With the hope and belief that you will alwaysprotect,

serve, lead, and guide this pack from this day forth.”

Leo frowns slightly before his eyes flash steely blue.

“I, Leo Rossi, accept the title of Alpha of the Sangue Pack. I swear by the oath of Selene to alwaysprotect, serve, lead, and guide this pack with everything that I have, and to the best of my capabilities.”

His voice was strong and powerful.

My heart is full of so many emotions as both father and son slice their hands and shake hands. I feel it,the shift in power, and Leo’s eyes flash magnificently. The lights flicker and everyone looks aroundsharply before Leo looks down at his hands. I can almost see the blur of power around him as Marcelfrowns in awe.

“He’s a fucking Rossi, don’t be so

shocked.” Alejandro says, making a few

people smile. I smile over at him and

Kiara, and she gives me a smile of

encouragement.

“Now your turn beautiful,” Leo says, and I turn back to look at him. “Do you, Azura Rayne Westwood,daughter of Alpha

Elijah Westwood and Alpha Scarlett

Westwood of The Blood Moon Pack, take

The Sangue Pack as your home, to serve and protect its people. To be my Luna and stand by my sidetill the end of fucking

time?” 2

I smile softly and nod. “I do. I vow to

always serve and protect this pack and its

people. To accept The Sangue Pack as my home…” I take a shuddering breath as

Leo brushes his knuckles down my cheek.

Our eyes lock. “I vow to you that I will

always stand by your side forever, to be

your Luna, to be Corrado’s Mama…”

I look at the little boy who is standing by

Winona’s side, fat tears spilling down his cheeks. I smile at him. “I promise to

always treat him as my own, because he

is mine… until the end of time and

beyond.” I end in barely above a whisper.

Leo takes the knife and I see him

swallowing, his eyes full of so many

emotions as he slices his hand once

again. His eyes lock with mine once

more, before he takes my hand and slices

my palm. Frowning at the blood that

spills from it.

We shake hands and I feel the breaking of the pack link, as a new one restores it. A surge of powerrushes through me as I become the Luna of the Sangue Pack. Ace passes us a napkin and Leopresses it to my hand until the wound closes.

Everyone continues waiting with bated breaths, and Leo reaches over, taking something else from thesmall tray that held the knife. “Although nothing that I give you in this world can ever come close towhat I feel for you…” My heart skips a beat, as I realise he has picked up the

most beautiful, gorgeous, intricate ring

that I have ever seen. A large radiant

diamond in the middle with smaller ones

around the edge. He takes my hand as Ace

takes the napkin back.

“I love you, baby girl.” Leo says huskily, as he slides the ring onto my finger. You’re mine, forever.”

With those words, he takes my hand,

tugging me close, his lips moulding against mine in a deep passionate kiss once again. Cheers andclapping erupt from the guests as Marcel speaks.

“I give you, your Alpha and Luna!”

We break apart and we both turn. As one, we motion Corrado over, he runs to us and we both benddown. I pull him into my arms as Leo embraces both of us.

This is my home. I finally found where I

truly belong…
