Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

101. Moments to Cherish

AZURA.

The dancing lasted for ages. The quintuplets, Dante, Alejandro, and Damon, all wanted a dance. 1

My feet were sore, and I could see Leo had left the dance floor after the dance with Skyla. I saw him chatting to pack members, some of who had also approached me and welcomed me. He was now talking to Dan and Jin.

“I’m glad you came.” I tell Dante, looking up at him.

“Me too. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.” He smiles.

It hurt to know he was somehow alone… He had to stay isolated because people couldn’t cope around him. My baby kicks and I smile. “So, this baby is going to be your nephew or niece… or it can be your cousin from my side.” I scrunch my nose trying to link the connection, and Dante chuckles. “Confusing.” I sigh.

“Well, regardless of all the family ties… I can sense it’s going to be strong.” He says.

I tilt my head. “Don’t tell me as I want it to be a surprise, but do you know the gender?” I ask as he sways me to the music.

His brows furrow a little and shakes his head. “No.”

“But… What is it?” I ask, my heart thudding. There was something more.

“It’s nothing to worry about, I am not all- knowing. This is the third child that I actually never foresaw.” 5

My smile faded. “Is that a bad thing?”

He shakes his head and tugs at my cheeks as we come to a stop. “No, this child will be a force to be reckoned with…”

There was more, but he wasn’t saying it. It’s going to be ok right?” I ask softly.

He nods, glancing over at Alessandra who is having a conversation with Leo over a tattoo on his wrist.

“Yes, I never saw her either.” He smiles. softly, looking at his sister, and I exhale. 1

“Thank the goddess.” I sigh, feeling at ease. I see Dad walk over to Leo and Alessandra. Alessandra lingers for a moment before Skyla calls her. “Tonight i s a big night… I hope I can do it.” I look back at him and he nods.

“You’ll be fine. Just do what feels right.” He says with confidence.

I nod slowly.

“May I intrude?” Marcel asks and Dante nods.

“Oh, absolutely.” He winks as he steps. back.

“Mama Mari.” Dante says turning to the woman who stood to the side talking to some elder women of the pack. “You look beautiful tonight. Come on, let’s dance.”

I look at them. Maria looks gorgeous in a glittering emerald green gown. Kareena came to my mind, and I look away, feeling my heart squeeze.

‘She’s a strong woman.’ Marcel says through the link, startling me. Oh yes, same pack now.

I agree.
