Fated to my Enemy (Ryley and Blake)
Chapter 181

Book Two Chapter Twenty-Eight

Luna Ryley

Saying goodbye to Aspen was hard, but he calls me every day to update me. After a week they stillhaven't tracked down the girls but they also haven't run into the council, so that's good news. I stilldon't like him out there without me. I know he’s eighteen and can handle himself but as a Lunawolf, I can heal him. And that's what's worrying me the most, is not being there if he needs me.But, today, I have to push my worry aside because, today, Evie and I are watching her big brotherplay hockey. It was like pulling teeth to get my mate to agree to let me go, but after seeing hisdaughter in the little jersey I bought to match mine with the Orion name on the back, he couldn'tsay no.

I was standing in the crowded bleachers with Walter. The second period was about to start and Eviewas already asleep in the snuggly strapped around my chest. It was passed her bedtime. Warriorswere surrounding us, blending into the crowd, and Channing's team of warriors was also there. Iknew we were safe and this was the first game my son openly invited me to and I wasn't going tomiss it.

I just finished texting Blake when the teams came out from intermission. The crowd went wild forthe home team and my heart swelled with pride. This is something Channing always wanted. Wewould talk about it after his games when he was younger. He loved the game of hockey.

I caught Channing eyeing the crowd and I waved an arm in the air. I was surprised when he saw mein the crowded arena but he gave me a nod before going to the center for the puck drop.

I held my sleeping daughter tightly as I bounced her in the busy lobby of the arena. The game wasnow over with a win for us and I was beaming with pride. I wish Blake had been here to see him. Hehas been meeting with other alphas with everything going on with the council. He couldn't getaway no matter how hard he tried.

"How are you feeling?” Walter asked me again as we waited. The nausea has been worse the lastcouple of days and it's been hard to keep anything down, even with medication

“I'm still okay,” I told him. Even if I were dying, I would still be here watching my son. But I missedbeing pregnant with Evie, she was so easy compared to this little bean

I kissed the top of her head as I bounced her. I was so thankful for the family Blake and I have. Asmuch as this little bean I'm growing is making me sick, I can't wait to meet them.

The lobby went crazy as the home team entered from the locker room. I couldn't see my sonthrough the crowd but I knew he would replace me, he always does. I just wanted to hug him beforewe had to leave. Blake was anxious about having us back at the pack as soon as possible. Iunderstand his worry. I worry every time he has to leave the pack without me.

“Mom, Grandad,” Channing shouted through the crowd of fans. He was taller than most and I wasfinally able to see him. He wrapped me in his arms before kissing my cheek and Evie's head. “I'm soglad you were both able to come.”

“I wouldn't have missed this,” I smiled at him. I have missed him so much since he left earlier thisweek. After Aspen left on his mission, Channing and I had been spending more time together.“Great game, son. So proud of you,” Walter praised him before hugging him.

“Thanks, Grandad.”

"We have another one tomorrow night if you can both make it,” he shrugged.

“I will try to be there, but your father has been anxious about us leaving the pack. Maybe tomorrow,we can both be here to cheer you on,” I told him.

“I understand, Mom. I love Evie's new jersey,” he smiled as he wrapped an arm around myshoulders.

"She watched most of the first period, but we have had a busy day,” I said as he lightly brushed hisfingers through her hair. “She'll be your second biggest fan soon enough,” I smiled. I will always bethe first.

“Thanks, Mom,” he squeezed me and my heart swelled. It's not easy when your children grow olderand you don't realize how hard it is until it happens to you.

Some of Channing's teammates were calling him over and I knew it was time to leave, even though Ididn’t want to. Channing hesitated to pull away from me.

“Go, we need to get back to the pack. I'm so proud of you, son,” I hugged him the best I could withhis sister strapped to my chest.

“Be safe and text me when you're home. Hopefully, I will see you all tomorrow,” he mumbled as hereturned the hug. He hugged Walter before kissing my cheek and his sister's head again.

“I love you.”

“I love you,” I heard him say before he got lost in the crowd.

“Come on, baby girl, we need to get back.” Walter wrapped an arm around my shoulders beforeleading me out of the arena. I walked over

to the waiting SUV with a few warriors standing around. I would say it was overkill if I didn't knowfirsthand what the council was capable of.

Walter helped me unstrap Evie and I placed her in the car seat. She stayed asleep as I buckled her in.Walter climbed in on the other side and a warrior closed the door behind me.

Once we were ready to go, I pulled out my phone to text Blake. I knew one of the warriors wouldhave notified him, but I missed him. Stu pid hormones.

“Everything is going to be okay,” Walter reassured me. I knew it would be, but I will feel better oncewe are in the safety of the pack and I'm wrapped in my husband's arms

"And the council is dead,” Lily grumbled.

“Yeah, that too.”
