A few diagrams of the highlights

This is the position after my 14...Qh5!?
perhaps looking a little dangerous to voluntarily exposing my queen to discovered attacks, but so far the h3 pawnis under attack, and i had plans...

White played 16.Ng5 with the awaited discovered attack on my queen

16...Ng4+!
a few moves later white has just played 21.Bf4

21...Rxf4!
white cannot take the rook without being mated on h1 in two moves.
it's all about the h-file and the lethal bishop on f3
and after 25.Qd2 it was time for me to finish off in style

25...Qxh4+!
Instead of taking on h4 26.Kg1 Rxg3+! 27.fxg3 Qxg3+ is also mate on te next move

15.Kh2 is waste of time. 15.Ng5 Qg6 16.h4 seems to be better alternative.

Also I don`t understand why White did not play 18.Qxg4 (instead of 18.h4?).

Did I miss something?

lol you're right. having a closer look reveals that the game was not that good anyway, no?

Nice alert wrap up Queen sac with the Rook & Bishop mating pattern
at the root of the idea. Typical blitz fun.
One way around not letting other players spot the preceeding lemons is
to just show the final trick.

Here are a some tricks from blitz.

I'm Black in both games.
I'll show the opening trick as it contains a piece winning idea.

1. e4 e5 2. Nc3 {Looks like he was fed up with the Latvian.} 2...Nf6 3. Bc4 Nxe4 4. Bxf7+ {A good blitz try. 4.Qh5 leads to the Frankenstein Dracula variation. which I have lost from both sides OTB!} 4... Kxf7 5. Nxe4 d5 {The RHP player utherpendragon plays 6.Qf3+ here, it's a much better try than the following move.} 6. Qh5+ {filipb has played this 6.Qh5+ 3 times losing all three.} 6...g6 7. Qxe5 {And now a move that filipb has seen twice.} 7... Bh6 {Worth knowing that one. White has to lose a piece. White has no checks and if the Knight moves Re8.}

Same game, I've not found a good way to sac back the piece back.
(don't hang onto bits in Blitz, it bad manners.)
Then this position popped up. White to play.

1. Rg2 {Threatening Nh5+ winning the Black Queen.} 1... Qe7 {OK. One good trick deserves another.} 2. Nxf5+ Rxf5 3. Qxf5 {Gotcha!} 3... Qe1+ 4. Rg1 Qxg1+ 5. Kxg1 gxf5 6. d5 {Trying to win on time.} 6... a5 {The sac-back and the magic square, the King cannot get into the magic square.} 7. dxc6 bxc6 8. Kf1 a4 9. Ke1 a3 10. Kd1 {It does not stop him trying though.} 10... a2 {And Black resigned.}

And this was a nice swindle.

1. c7 {Well this looks grim, I suppose I had better set my last trick and resign.} 1... Rb4 2. b3 Rg4+ 3. Kh3 {Amazing what people will play at blitz when they have 1-0 clocked up in the mind. Of course 3.Kf1 and I send 'gg' and resign.} 3... Ne4 {That is that. This one timed out as the lad tried to figure out a way to stop both 4....Nxf2 mate or 4...Ng5 mate. }
