Fated to my Enemy by Diane Doherty

Chapter Eighty–Eight

Alpha Blake

I spend the morning working, giving Ryley some time to herself. After her surprise visit with Alpha Dorian’s Luna, she hasn’t been herself.

“She’s had an exhausting week, Blake.” Gunner defended.

“I know she has, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to spend time with her. I want to be there for her, whatever she needs,” I sighed.

“And she needs space,” he retorted and I growled.

“You’re no help,” I scoffed before closing the link.

It was now midafternoon and it was almost time for me to meet the boys for our afternoon training. It gave me time to spend with both of them. I left my office, hesitating as I walked by Ryley’s office. Since I canceled a contract, I have to wait for the lawyers to handle everything before I can officially hire her to take over the work she was already doing. It was a lot of legal bullshit.

I knew she told me that’s where she was heading this morning went I left and I didn’t want to bother her. I can’t imagine how she is feeling after seeing her mate’s chosen mate. I just pray she isn’t thinking about going back to her mate. Fated mates are sacred to us. They are the other half of our souls. I may be selfish since I got to have mine, and I also want Ryley. But I don’t want her soul mate to have her.

And I know that makes me an asshole but he had his chance with her and he tried to kill her. He made her feel like the only way out was death. I will never let him have her, she is mine.
