13. Nxe4
First things first. White removes all impediments evenly vaguely close to the enemy king.

 
13... dxe4
Practically forced. Black now reluctantly invites an exchange of queens.

 
14. Qg4+
No way white accepts. Though down in material, white has great attacking chances.

 
14... Kh6
?? The worst possible move to make. 14...Kf6 was the only play.

15. Nf7#
!! .....and white delivers the knockout punch. An unusual gem of a final position. White delivers mate with a Royal Fork that hits an enemy rook as well. I hope you have enjoyed - Thomas
