Don't Poke the Luna (Xena and Ryder)

Don't Poke the Luna.

Chapter 109

Xena's POV

Looking down at my outfit, I felt a hint of disappointment wash over me. I was wearing a sports bra and a fitted athletic tank, both white, paired with black and white shorts. They weren't skin-tight, but they still hugged my thighs. I hesitated, wondering if the ensemble was too eye-catching, but then I thought about today's fight. I needed something light and comfortable.

After slipping on my tennis shoes, I decided to grab breakfast first. Stepping out of our bedroom, the pack house was already buzzing with energy. Laughter and footsteps echoed from downstairs bouncing off the marble floors.

It was Saturday morning, summer almost upon us, and the time was 7:30 AM, so I guessed the morning training had already finished. My wolf was vibrant with the energy of this pack.

The dining hall doors were wide open, probably blown apart by the noise coming from inside. Rows of tables filled the room, with everyone discussing today's events. My gaze landed on Ama and William sitting at a table near the front. I smiled as I made my way toward them.

"Hey, you guys!" I said cheerfully, pulling out a chair across from them.

"Hey, girl! Didn't expect to see you here!" Ama turned her face toward me, temporarily ignoring William. William leaned back in his chair, raising an eyebrow.

"Why's that?" I asked, feigning confusion.
