Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

94. Powers & Troubles

AZURA.

Skyla sighed and nodded “Yeah well the Moon Goddess has a crazy mind, I

wonder what she’s up to… I’m dealing though, so how are you adapting here?”

She asked, changing the subject.

“Great, Leo’s friends and the pack are really welcoming. You know…” I began,

my heart beating as I wasn’t sure if I should mention it… “Leo… he’s dying.”

Both girls looked at me, shock clear on their faces as Skyla sat up, her eyes

blazing that deep plum colour once again. “What do you mean? Can Mama not

fix

him?”

I shook my head. “Kia can’t heal what’s

gone.’

“Yeah… But there has to be a solution. I

…” Kataleya whispered, shaking her head

worriedly.

“There is, I can heal him.” I said. I sat up as both girls looked at me

questioningly.

“What do you mean?” Skyla asked as Malevolent jumped into her lap, purring.

She stroked her, watching me intently.

I took a deep breath. “I have the moon fire too… or as Dante put it, I am the

heart of fire.” I said, closing my eyes as I summoned my powers forth raising my

hand. I heard Kataleya gasp as I opened my eyes, feeling Skyla’s aura swirling

around her as they stared at my hand where I was holding a shimmering flamelike glow of silver and gold intertwined.

“That’s…. incredible. But… how are your doing that… you seem to have more

control over it than Mama and Uncle.”

Skyla breathed in awe, as Kataleya

nodded.

“I don’t know, maybe mine isn’t as

intense as theirs. I realised that emotion

helps, or having to act on the spur of the moment. I was talking to Kia, and she

told me you don’t learn these things, and that they’ll come to me. I hope so

because there’s no guidebook on how exactly it works or how I’ll heal Leo.”

“So, you can heal though?” Kataleya asked. 3

“Well… I can heal all, whatever that means, but only on a full moon when the

moon is at its peak. So, I guess that’s twelve times a year for a short period of

time.” I explained.

Kataleya’s chest was rising heavily, and due to her ability where you couldn’t

really sense her presence, I couldn’t hear her heartbeat, but if I could I was sure

it would be racing, and I had a good idea of what was going through her mind. s

“You can heal anything?” She asked softly.

“Aside from death, I think… Leo’s body

has begun shutting down. So, I think I can regenerate what had already shut

down… or something.” I explained.

She nodded slowly, but the cup that she held was trembling slightly, and she

slowly placed it on the floor, clenching her fists.

Kataleya was studying advanced bionic engineering, trying to create a limb that

could adapt to a shift and manipulate into a shape suitable for wolf form. I was

certain Leo could also help her with that… and if she ever needed me to help

her… I would. 2

I didn’t mention him, but I knew he would always remain on her mind. After

all, she still wore his picture around her neck to this day.

“So… tomorrow, are you ready to break necks?” Skyla asked, glancing at her

sister with hidden concern.

“There’s only one man’s attention I want

tomorrow.” I replied, and she groaned.

“Damn, you’re in love, I don’t know if I should think it’s sweet or if I should gag. I

mean, it’s obvious you two have each other’s tongue down your throat twentyfour-seven.” She shuddered.

“Hey in my defence, we had a lot going on, so no, I don’t get to have his tongue

or you know, down my throat as much as I would want.”
