Fated to my Enemy by Diane Doherty

Chapter One Hundred Thirty–Eight

Alpha Blake

I lost track of time as I watched from the tailgate of Walter’s truck. Firefighters were doing their best to get the fire under control. When Channing became alpha, all the fight ceased, and clean–up began. Not that me and the boys were much help. I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact she was gone. This all had to be a bad dream and I would wake up soon and she would be wrapped up in my arms.

Both boys had their heads resting on a shoulder as we watched together. It was moments like these where you ask someone how much they can live through and it’s not much more than this. I may have the boys but they don’t need me anymore. In a few months, they will move on with their lives while mine died. It comes down to, do I want to continue to live without her. Because I don’t think I can.

Gunner hasn’t stopped whimpering and my tears have only stopped for a moment or two. The pain in my chest was raw and it was only getting worse. Nothing was ever going to be able to ease this pain. I knew from the second she stormed her sassy ass into my office that she was going to be mine. She was mine.

“Alpha Blake, I’m sorry to disturb you but there are a few people who wish to speak with you.” One of my warriors announced.

“Get Luca or Connor,” I demanded, more than what was needed but I wanted to be left alone.
