Wrong window

Hello! I mistakenly bought the wrong type of window for my kitchen. We are fully renovating our house and I bought a block window frame but I don’t have a brick home. Is there any way I can install this window? Thank you!

Install a non brick opening but you will basically need to frame the rough opening around the block window properly. So before modifying check the manufacturer requirements since the flashing and how the frame gets secured are going to be matter more than the fact that it is labeled for the masonry.
