Chapter 83
"When Leonardo died, Aurora must extract the dagger and say the same chant with you; there will be two souls in one body. One must be sacrificed, so the body can continue to live. I will sacrifice myself as my soul and powers leave; you will transfer them to Roberta's womb," said Ugo.
"Roberta knows this won't affect her baby?" I asked, worried.
"My cousin will know, she will have a vision when she knows she is pregnant, and she will see that her child will be a powerful alpha and that I will be reincarnated in him," said Ugo.
"When I leave Leonardo's body, he should wake up as if nothing had happened, and I hope that his and Aurora's life will finally have the happy ending that we couldn't."
"You will dispose of the dagger by taking it to our Coven; I expect your discretion and loyalty. I trust you to do what is necessary to make this happen."
THE FLASHBACK ENDS BACK ON THE ANCIENT HILL.
"My beloved Ugo, even then and after his death, thought of me in my happiness," I said, crying with a feeling for the loss of both of my lovers.
"He loved you more than anything in this world, so much so that whenever he was reborn, he looked for you, always," said Micaela.
"We have to hurry, close your eyes and place your hands on the dagger; repeat after me," said Micaela.
Liberati almis tue Ugo

Leonardo almis quedare
Ugo sacrifare almis
Transferi tue tuto esenci

My body was covered with white light, and I opened my eyes again. I was in a place I thought I would never return to HOLARIS; I looked around, and a smile was reflected on my face as I saw him standing in front of me, Ugo, my muse.
My smile reflected joy and a freedom I had never felt before, I ran into his arms, and he hugged me tightly, smelling my scent.
"Beautiful, I have missed you so much, my muse, my beloved wife. I love you," he said, looking at me.
Our eyes met, and we melted in a kiss of love, not passionate but of two critical people in their lives and who loved each other once.
"Thank you for this you are doing; you should have told me back then," I said, looking at him.
"I couldn't, beautiful, but I'm glad I can have this moment to say goodbye to you," Ugo said.
"All my existence, I have always looked for you. I have loved you and lived my life with you. For that, I am grateful for making me the happiest man in eternity and I love you, my beloved muse. I belong to you forever," he said, smiling at me.
"That fucking wolf is lucky because he could stay with you; I still feel jealous, but I was the first one in your life, and I'll take that with me," he said, laughing.
"Be happy, enjoy life with him, you deserve it, that's my gift to you; I love you so much that I will do everything possible to see you happy even if it's not with me," said Ugo.
"You will always be my muse and an important part of my life; I love you, thank you: I said, smiling at him and smelling his scent for the last time.
"All my life, I have searched for you and found you, and I have always told you this, and it will be the last thing you will hear from me," said Ugo placing his hands on the sides of my face.
"If my life is over, don't forget me please; whatever my death is, If there are more lives, I promise to look for you in all of them and I swear that in all of them I will find you, I love you with my soul, goodbye my beloved."
“And I'll be waiting for you," I said with tears in my eyes.
Ugo brought his lips to mine, I closed my eyes, and he kissed me for the last time.
Everything faded away. I heard Micaela's voice, and I knew I was back and that the dream was over, "Take out the dagger, Aurora, it's time," said Micaela.
I opened my eyes and looked at my beloved husband; Ugo was my muse. I will always love him, but my life and my now were Leonardo, whom I loved with all my being; I took the dagger with both hands and pulled it forcefully from his chest.
Micaela and I stood still watching as Ugo's soul left the body of my beloved alpha and disappeared into thin air.
"It's done, be fulfilled now, my princess be happy, my prince commands him," said Micaela looking at me with joy on her face and walked away, away from us.
I looked at my husband, caressing his face and saying his name, "Leonardo love, I'm here you can hear me," I said, trying to wake him up, but he still didn't react; it must have worked, or I lost him too.
It has been two days since the battle on the ancient hill, my pack is recovering, and the few remaining members of Mateo' pack joined us in peace.
Roberta gave birth to a beautiful baby boy the same day Leonardo was reborn; we did not expect this to happen, but the ritual was powerful. The baby could not wait any longer to be born.
She and Leonardo are still in the pack clinic. My mate is still not awake after two days; Micaela tells me to give him time. It is not easy to come back from death, and my beloved husband was fortunate thanks to Ugo's sacrifice.
Anthony did some tests, and everything is fine with my pregnancy; miraculously, my baby is stronger than ever.
I am in Leonardo's room, and I hope he wakes up soon. I miss his voice, look, and kisses; I still can't believe everything we have been through, but we are together, and everything is over; we have to be happy.
I was distractedly caressing my little belly that was already showing a little more when I heard it, "Mmmmm Aurora!" said Leonardo, moaning a little.
"Leonardo, here I am; everything is fine, love," I said, smiling at him.
MY beloved husband opened his eyes and looked at me; he raised his hand and caressed my cheek, a few tears were falling on my face. Finally, my happiness was complete.
"I love you, welcome to life," I said, approaching to kiss him, and he hugged me tightly; we melted in an eternal kiss of need; we had gone through so much. I almost lost him, and seeing him again in front of me, it was a miracle that every day I would make the most of it.
"Are you ok and our baby?" he asked me, worried.
"Everything is fine, Anthony ran some tests, and he is fine," I said, smiling.
"He? Did you say he?" he said with a huge smile.
"Yes!" he said smiling "we are expecting a baby boy," I said excitedly.
Leonardo stood up and started talking nonsense from excitement; he was screaming and howling with joy.
"Please, you have to calm down; you just woke up, for god sake, Leonardo," I said with a smile seeing him so happy.
"Aurora, I'm fine; I feel better than ever, with an energy as if I had been reborn," he told me. I remembered that's precisely what happened.
I told him what happened in the battle, that Mateo was no longer a problem, that I had taken care of him. I also said to him that Micaela and I had to do a ritual to bring him back to life; it was unnecessary to tell him everything, at least not now.
Suddenly the door of the room opened, and Velkan entered with Georgia by his side.
"Finally, I was already thinking that I would have to kiss you like sleeping beauty; I demand a vacation. These days have been too much for my poor wolf," said my brother laughing.
" Come on, you don't have to put up with a grumpy beta and a baby who eats like an alpha," said Georgia.
"That can be fixed; when the future alpha is on his way. I already feel at ease that someday I will be able to retire when the alpha and beta positions are already filled," said Leonardo smiling.
"What?!" said Velkan surprised.
" You guys are expecting a baby boy," said Georgia shouting with excitement.
"Yes, Anthony confirmed it to me yesterday; a beautiful, healthy, and strong baby boy is on the way," I said happily.
"Speaking of boys, have you seen Roberta's baby? By God, when he grows up, he will be a heartbreaker," said Georgia.
"Roberta already had her baby. My god, how many days was I asleep?" asked Leonardo.
"Very few, my love; Roberta gave birth the same day of the battle, both are fine, and Fabrizio looks like a peacock of happiness; they are still here at the hospital. I think I will take advantage of Velkan and Georgia being here to go and meet him," I told them.
"Yes, beautiful, go and congratulate them both for me," said Leonardo.
I left Leonardo's room and went to the maternity area; when I arrived, I could see that Roberta was alone in the room holding her baby. I couldn't help but think of Ugo's soul; would his face look like him.
I entered the room, knocking, "Hello, may I come in?" I asked, smiling.
"Aurora, of course, please," Roberta said.
