Fated to my Enemy by Diane Doherty
Chapter 96 (Alpha Blake)
I walked back into my office ready to murder Isaac for his disrespect towards my Luna. I was ecstatic on the inside that Ryley was now a part of my pack but first I needed to deal with this s*hit. This was supposed to be an easy termination of contract but Isaac is pushing it to be more. This has nothing to do with money and more to do with my personal relationship with Ryley. But even if we weren’t together I would still have her back. She’s a wolf and we need to stick together.
“Mr. Orion, I would like to state for the record that whatever my client said to Miss Halliwell has nothing to do with this matter.” Issac’s lawyer stated before I even sat back down.
“It does or he would terminate the contract. My decision to end this contract is because the accountant assigned to my case quit. She is the best at what she does and that’s why I asked for her. If she no longer works at Mr. Miller’s firm then I want no part in his firm. And if you would read over the employment contract that my lawyer has provided, you would see I’m willing to pay her as much as I was being charged for her services.” I pointed out.
“He means no disrespect,” the lawyer tried to defend his client but I held up my hand stopping h him.

“But he does. If he didn’t you wouldn’t be here wasting my time. And he wouldn’t have spoken to my partner the way he did.” Isaac glared as he clenched his jaw.
“Mr. Orion’s offer is more than generous and is more than the original contract stated for early termination. I would take the offer before this goes to court.” My lawyer advised.
“I’m going to put this in away you will understand if you leave my pack without signing. I will take you to court and single-handedly take the firm for everything it has. This offer ends the moment you step out of my pack. I’m done with this matter. Sign, don’t sign. I don’t care. This meeting is over,” I announced before getting up from my chair. My lawyers can deal with this. I would have been more patient if he didn’t attack my Luna.
“Oh and Mr. Miller, you will apologize to Miss Halliwell before you leave or I’ll rip up the contract,” I said before leaving my office. I went to Ryley’s office. Opening the door, I found she was concentrating on the screen of her laptop. I closed the door behind me before making my way – over to the seats in front of her desk.
“Blake, how the hell do I register Channing for school? This website has no useful information,” she huffed, clicking angrily on the keyboard.
“I’ll handle it once Channing is a part of the pack,” I told her. She sighed, slamming her laptop closed.
I linked Aspen and told him to get Channing and meet me in Ryley’s office. The members of my pack should have felt the link with Ryley’s form and now it was time to add another.
“What’s bothering you, my love?” I asked her, as she watched me from across her desk.
“Everything, nothing. I don’t know Blake. What Isaac said is getting to me, and I know it shouldn’t but I want nothing more than to punch him in the face,” she growled, and I let out a chuckle. She crossed her arms over her c*hest and pushed her l*ips in a line.
“I didn’t mean to laugh. You’re just adorable angry.” I shrugged. She rolled her eyes and I chuckled again.
“What did he say that’s bothering you the most?” I asked her, moving to lean on the desk beside her. She laid her head on my thigh and I ran my fingers threw her hair.
“I don’t know. Maybe the fact that he insinuated that my education was beneath him because I didn’t go to some fancy school. I had to work my ass off, working three jobs and then I did night classes. All while taking care of Channing. And then for some asshat to walk in here and say he’s better than me because he was given an expensive education. The same asshat who has been asking me out for years.” She scoffed. Gunner let out a growl.
“We should just murder him, and throw his body in a pit somewhere. F*ucker, hurt mate and should die,” he grumbled.
“And does his opinion of you matter?” I questioned, still playing with her hair.
“No, but, I don’t know. I just don’t want you to think of me like that. I may not have had the education I wanted but I made the most of it.” She shrugged. I kneeled on the floor, moving her chair so I was now facing her. I took hold of her cheeks.
“I would never think that of you. You did everything you had to. And look at the life you have given to Channing. You have nothing to be ashamed of.” I told her, rubbing my nose against hers.
“Thank you, Blake,” she mumbled.
“For what, baby?” I asked her.
“For being able to make me feel better,” she smiled before her l*ips brushed mine. I smiled against her l*ips. Our moment was short-lived when the boys entered her office.
“Get a room,” Aspen exclaimed. I growled as Ryley chuckled. “We are in a room,” I retorted.
“Should we come back?” Channing questioned, I looked up to see both of them cringing.
“No, I should add you to the pack before you go anywhere. I know you have afternoon training soon.” I told him.
“Great, what do I need to do?” I stood up from where I was kneeling and walked over to the boys.
“Give me your hand and swear your loyalty to me and the pack.”
