Hearts On Fire
Chapter 41:

Azar: “I can't get enough of you.”

Amaya: “Me either. Kiss me more.”

Azar: “Like I planned on stopping.”

Thorne: “Mir, stop running and I told you we were interrupting them.”

Miranda: “Don't care. Amaya!! It's been four days since you didn't leave this room. Don't you care about your best friend?! Is this asshole all you care about now?! I was looking for you!! I waited for you!! I was worried sick!! I missed you!!”

Amaya: “Mir!!”

Miranda: “All of a sudden you're happy to see me?! I thought it was bros before hoes and you came and went straight to it for four days and completely forgot about me.”

Amaya: “How can you say that? I didn't forget about you. I just needed my mate.”

Miranda: “I know, bub. But it's these damn hormones.”

Thorne: “So glad to see the both of you. Azar, uncle Fenrir, wants to see you. Please come when you're ready.”

Amaya: “I'm sorry I didn't come see you. Azar and I got carried away. Stop crying.”

Miranda: “I thought I would never see you again. I was scared.”

Amaya: “I know, I thought the same but here we are.”

Miranda: “I didn't want to do all of this without my best friend. Without my sister.”

Amaya: “Do what?”

Miranda: “I'm pregnant.”

Amaya: “You're pregnant?!”

Miranda: “Yes.”

Amaya: “I'm so happy for you guys. I'm gonna be at auntie.”

Miranda: “Yes.”

Amaya: “This is the best news ever.”

Miranda: “Finally you're here and safe.”

Amaya: “Yes.”

Miranda: “So it's finally over?”

Amaya: “Yes. They’re all gone. We're finally free. No more running. We can finally enjoy ourselves and live without the fear of them.”

Miranda: “Thorne said you did most of the job yourself.”

Amaya: “Yes. Months passed and I couldn't wait to be saved. I knew I needed to save myself and everyone else.”

Miranda: “Don't think that I didn't know about the whole sacrificing shit you pulled. I heard Jessie and Sammy talk about it to Thorne.”

Amaya: “It was the only way.”

Miranda: “Do it one more time and I'll kill you myself. Don't you dare laugh at me.”

Amaya: “I missed you so much.”

Miranda: “So you’re a witch?”

Amaya: “A siphoner.”

Miranda: “This is so exciting. Cast us a spell.”

Amaya: “Oh, no. I'm not playing with magic anymore.”

Miranda: “You're no fun. You need to tell me everything. Did they suffer? Don't act all surprised. We all know they deserved it. What did you do to Nash?”

Amaya: “I burned him alive.”

Miranda: “You go girl. You need to tell me everything. (in the hallway)”

Azar: “Congratulations, brother.”

Thorne: “You know?”

Azar: “I heard them while I was getting dressed. I'm happy for you guys.”

Thorne: “Thank you. It's too early to catch the scent but her hormones are crazy. Better not laugh. You know we always considered Mir a calm one out of those two. Imagine Amaya. You're gonna be in so much trouble.”

Azar: “I'm ready for it.”

Thorne: “I'm so relieved everything turned out well.”

Azar: “Tell me about it.”

Thorne: “Come on, your dad has something important to discuss with us.”

Azar: “You're staying here?”

Thorne: “Of course, don't worry. I'll protect both of them.”

Azar: “Thank you. I'll get back as fast as I can. (in the living room)”

Fenrir: “I'm so happy you're okay, son.”

Azar: “Thanks, dad. I don't know what I would’ve done if I lost her.”

Fenrir: “I know how you felt. I experienced that pain when I thought I lost your mother. You'll never overcome it. I hate even thinking of it.”

Azar: “I was afraid that this was all a dream and that I'll wake up without her. I can't even sleep. I constantly check up on her.”

Fenrir: “There's nothing wrong with that. She's your mate and you have the urge to protect her. Now more than ever.”

Azar: “Yes.”

Fenrir: “I really didn't wanna interrupt you but it looked like you’d stay in your room forever. Your mom and I have been talking and we've decided that it's time.”

Azar: “Time for what?”

Fenrir: “It's time for you to take my place. I want you to become the alpha of all alphas and rule together with Amaya. You both deserve it and she deserves to stay next to you like a queen she is. This pack will be in good hands. I don't have a single doubt about it. I must confess something to you. I've had my doubts about Amaya especially after what happened to you but she's proved me wrong. She amazed me with her will and strength and I'm proud that she's your mate.”

Azar: “Thank you, dad. I'm honored.”

Azrael: “My boy is all grown up. It was like yesterday I brought you into this world and now you're becoming an alpha.”

Azar: “You taught me well. You're the best parents a person can have. (two weeks later in the bathroom)”

In Amaya’s head: Two weeks past and the blink of an eye and now it's time for the ball. Azar becomes the alpha of all alphas today and me…I'll be right by his side as his wife and mate. (in the ballroom)

Azar: “When I thought you couldn’t become more stunning.”

Amaya: “Thank you. That crown looks good on you.”

Azar: “Same goes for you, my queen.”

Amaya: “I'm nervous.”

Azar: “You don't have a reason to be nervous. Everyone loves you. They all know what you did for the pack. How you protected us. Plus, I'll be holding your hand the whole time. May I ask you for a dance, my little flame?”

Amaya: “Yes, my alpha.”

In Azar’s head: The night went great. I could feel Amaya being nervous but it passed. Like I promised, I never let her hand out of mind. Reassuring her and calming her. Our whole pack was here and when the ceremony was done, and I took my father's place as being the alpha, the ball began.

In Amaya’s head: I wasn't sure how his pack would feel about me but when we entered they all bowed in front of us. The feeling was amazing. There wasn't fear nor hate in their eyes. Just pure respect and happiness. They accepted me as their own. The only thing I ever yearned for. And now I finally found my real family. My real home. For some reason, all of a sudden I started to feel nauseous. Truth be told I felt like this since this morning but I didn't pay attention to it as I was anxious for the ball and now it started to get worse. At the corner of my eye I saw Tyy Leon leaving to go to the terrace. As much as I hated to leave Azar’s arms, I needed to talk to him. It was a great opportunity for me to get a bit of fresh air.

Amaya: “I'll go out on the terrace for a second.”

Azar: “Is everything okay?”

Amaya: “Yes, I just saw Tyy and I wanted to talk to him.”

Azar: “Do you want me to go with you?”

Amaya: “Go visit your parents and the other guests. I'm safe with him.”

Azar: “Okay. (on the terrace)”

Amaya: “You don't have to bow, Tyy. I never got the chance to thank you for everything you did for me. You saved my life.”

Tyy Leon: “No, Amaya. You're the one who saved us all.”

Amaya: “Do you like it here in our pack?”

Tyy Leon: “I'm delighted. as everyone else's. thank you for giving us a chance at a new life. and avenging all of those who fell by Nash's hand.”

Amaya: “He was a monster. I'm glad he's gone.”

Tyy Leon: “I'm willing to teach you a lot more things.”

Amaya: “That’ll be amazing.”

Tyy Leon: “It will. You're a powerful witch. All those things you've managed to do, not even the elders would be able to do but all of it will have to wait.”

Amaya: “Why?”

Tyy Leon: “You'll see. Take care, Amaya. Especially now.”

Amaya: “Are all witches and warlocks that mysterious? Why do you have to give me riddles? Why can't you just tell me?”

Tyy Leon: “Don't keep your mate waiting.”

In Amaya’s head: Why am I feeling so dizzy?

Azar: “There you are. Tyy said you called for me?”

Amaya: “What? I didn't tell him to call you.”

Azar: “Are you okay? You look really pale.”

Amaya: “I'm fine.”

Azar: “You can't lie to me.”

Amaya: “I'm just a bit dizzy, that's all.”

Azar: “We're going home, now.”

Amaya: “No, we need to stay. You're the alpha now.”

Azar: “I know but nothing will ever be more important for me than you. Doll?! Amaya, wake up!! AMAYA?!”
