Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Alpha Leo And The Heart Of Fire Chapter 112

112. A Forgotten Language

LEO.

“That’s the last one.” Li Sheng says tossing the deactivated device onto the

ground. Four had gone off in total before we had managed to find the rest and

disarm them. I had felt thirteen tethers snap, meaning we had lost thirteen lives.

Eric and Emmet’s selfish plan had cost not only me but instead had cost the

lives of many innocent people.

Those who had been trapped, and there had been many, had been accounted

for and we had retrieved the bodies of our dead too.

They ranged from the ages of eleven to ninety-seven. 1

“Continue to comb the pack grounds until every area has been covered just in

case there’s more detonators.” I say coldly.

I need to f***king go after them. I know there is a team out there, but I still need

to do something too.

“Will do Alpha.” He replies, lowering his head before he runs off.

Alejandro and several others were now in one of my meeting rooms, gathered

around a map, trying to find out where Azura and Corrado had vanished to, and

the possible places they may have gone.

“There’s the forest there…” Elijah says, frowning deeply.

He, Damon, and several others are here too, but time is just moving too f**king

slow. With each passing moment, who knows what she’s going through. I’m a

f**king mess inside, but I’m f**king trying to keep my sh*t together. I can’t lose

them, I need them.

I walk over to the table, and look down at the 3D hologram map that covers the

entire table.

“I don’t know… isn’t that too close to your place? Maybe to the west, Dante’s

gone to check that side out…” Alejandro mutters as I stare at the spot that the

blimp of the tracker had last been, before it vanished.

“He’s misleading us.” I say quietly, feeling my anger rise. This is a f**king game

to him … I want blood… I want to f**king kill.

“Meaning?” Alejandro asks.

“This is where Azura’s tracker went off radar … a place that’s got literally three

dense forest areas around it… making it the ideal place for us to f**king

search… I’m certain he went in the opposite f**king direction. Trust me, I know

how f**king b****rds work.” I say menacingly.

“Then where do you think they may be?” Liam asks. His anger is palpable, but I

can see the worry for his sister in his eyes. 1

I look down at the map, zooming out and scrolling fifty miles in the opposite

direction. “The caverns,” I say, tapping the map.

All eyes turn on me, and Alejandro c**ks a brow. “Why do you think that?”

“It’s the last place he’d think we’d look… that place has magic that can cancel

out a lot of sh*t. Azura’s tracker couldn’t have just blipped out unless she’s in a

location that blocks the outside off…” I run my fingers through my hair, only for

the strands of my hair to fall back in front of my forehead.

“How sure are you?” Damon asks, frowning.

“Pretty sure. Raihana wasn’t able to teleport to Azura either. She had something

of hers and Judah doesn’t possess that kind of magic. So why the f**k did the

teleportation not work? Unless ofcourse there is a power strong enough to

counter it. Raihana is meant to be one of the strongest witches alive, so tell me

what can f**king counter her? Trust me, this is the place to search.” I say

confidently, turning away.

They seem to take a second to mull over my words before Alejandro slaps his

hands together, rubbing them. “Right, let’s listen, he has the f**king brains.”

Yeah, I do.

“Remember, he’s f**king fast; from the footage, we can see that he seems to

have a link with the shadows…” Elijah is saying.

I frown. Shadows… I suddenly remember an image from a certain book I had

gone over. A book that contained drawings and symbols that no one was able to

read because of the language.

I need to go over it again.

“So what’s the plan?” Ace asks and I’m brought out of my trance. My eyes flash

as I frown deeply.

Oh, I f**king have a plan…
