Fired with wrath (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ire

'wrath' is the definition.
(both can mean anger)

'fired with' is the wordplay.
'with' indicates a hidden word.
'IRE' is hidden in the letters of 'fired'.

(Other definitions for ire that I've seen before include "Fury" , "Irritation, anger" , "Strong emotion" , "Losing head" , "passionate feeling" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
