What a trooper! For an amature. Aries had brought all glory to the Iron Moon pack in achieving that elusive, that has been in prayer for thousands of years.
Although her involuntary teleporting had left her unconscious. Inexperienced as she was, for the first time she tried to do something incredible that left her vulnerable.
GG with Nora ran to her aid. Though Aries could heal herself naturally, she was still in need of alternative medicine, and time to rest and recover.
They tried to separate the heart from her open palm but were unsuccessful in doing so. They were staring with wonder at how securely it had attached to Aries.
Simon loves her and very dearly. She was his first love and will always remain to the end of the world.

Aries walked out of the room, where she was under observation. She walked away from the pack's land and into the woods. With the other free hand, Aries shot a small light of fire from her palm, which created a hole in the ground. Then she placed Simon's beating heart inside.
"I know you're eternal, you could never die. All your imperfections will appear worthless to the world. You’ll be only known as a Lover.” She said and buried it underground.

CHAPTER 25
A victory celebration with great festivity was organized on the day of the return of the Iron Moon Wolves. Except for a few who were no longer with us to enjoy. My heart goes to them, respect and bow to the ones who lost their lives fighting in the battles. And those who were injured I would happily provide my healing powers to make them feel better.
Everywhere it was joy and happiness. Every corner was decorated with lights as if the whole land was celebrating Christmas.
The entire family members who stayed behind, mostly Mothers, children, and siblings, went out on the veranda, their eyes staring at the path in the wait to see their mates, father, and brothers.
And when they all arrived, everyone was enjoying their appearance and presence. Hugging and kissing, crying, and smiling, but the counterpart to this enthusiasm was tender with deep endearment.
When I saw Leo, he walked in through that Iron gate with his confidence and I forgot to breathe. He was attractive and pleasing to my eyes. I just stood there, gazing at him and felt in a trance. Just his presence brought excitement and full of the joys of spring with him.
'Yes, you are that happiness. Yes, you are that love, and yes, I belong to you, and you belong to me.'
"Mom," Leo said and hugged her first since her motherly affection has a more fondness. I couldn’t deny the admiration, that's what I like about Leo, he was manly but sensitive.
"Hey, love." Leo nuzzled his nose in the crook of my neck while tied me in a big hug.
"I've missed you so much." He said and sucked in a long breath, inhaling my scent, this simple gesture in return was such enlightenment.
Slowly, Leo dropped to one knee, head bowed down to me as a sign of respect. With me, everybody gasped.
I swallow loudly before asking him, "Leo, why are you bowing down?"
Leo's head rose and said, "Today it's imperative to tell you... You're my Supreme Love. My heartbeat is yours. My breath is yours, too, and My Life…” He slowly stood up. “I owe it all to you, Aries." He said.
I was speechless, but pleased with his gesture I could do nothing, but gently accepted bowing my thanks, and Leo kissed me quickly in front of everyone.
The whole Pack howled unitedly. I'd goosebumps all over me. The level of respect I got I never thought I would have so much love in my entire life. For the girl who was once taunted with vulgar and indecent words today because of my Leo, I have honor.
GG's words come to my mind, and yes, Leo, is a boon to my life... beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Leo brought me to an empty room. I walked in and felt his arms coming around from behind, wrapping my body. He knew what I desired.
"Do you like this room?" He asked. "I was thinking of making this our bedroom."
"But you already have one and I love the view," I said.
"Yeah, but it has bad memories. We fought and the image of you turning..." He trailed off becoming quiet.
I turned around to see his face. It's been so long I've seen him this close, I feel like I've forgotten his features. I touched his heart, "I'm so sorry Leo, for hurting you immensely. Please forgive me." I rested my head on his chest and cried.
"Aries," He said. I looked up from my despairing plea. "I hurt you too."
"I guess this is part of our life and we are in this together. There will always be disagreements but it depends a lot on how we handle the situation and not let anger win us." I said as I stroked his cheek, and slowly caressed my fingers over his lips, which look oh so delicious and inviting to suck on.
Leo's hands cupped my face and he kissed me hard. I moan at the wonderful attack and cling to him tightly as my knees tremble. I wanted to speak, there were words floating in my mind and I wanted him to know, but his tongue took control of mine promptly, making me dumb to talk.
'I can't live without you, Leo. No more separations. No more pain.' I talked via mind link instead.
Leo suddenly slows the kiss and changes from heated to soft caress and tender, like the first kiss. He sucked my lower lip. 'No more, I promise you, baby,' he assured me and dipped his tongue in my mouth. I gave out a moan in satisfaction.
Although our mouths were feasting on each other, our minds were speaking.
'I don't care where we live, I want to be only with you, Leo'
Leo picked me up, and I
