Don't Poke the Luna (Xena and Ryder)

Chapter 110

Xena's POV

As rage rocketed through my body, everything around me blurred. Ihot to my feet, my wolf taking over, and stormed toward Helen. My hand closed around her throat, lifting her before slamming her hard against the floor. My wolf turned to Ryder, eyes blazing.

"Start the DAMN Challenge. NOW!"

Without waiting for his response, my wolf dragged Helen straight out of the office, across the entire pack hall. Everyone who witnessed the scene followed, whispers and exclamations echoing behind us-Oh my god," "That's right"-but my wolf paid no attention, hauling her straight to the challenge arena that was always ready.

My wolf wasn't about to wait a second longer and tossed Helen into the ring. She landed on all fours, pathetic and disoriented. I took several steps back, never taking my eyes off her.

"Xena..." Ryder's voice came from behind me.

"Back off, Ryder," I snarled through our mind link. Despite my fury, I maintained enough control not to create a scene by arguing in

front of everyone.

"You had meetings with Helen behind my back! You held important meetings without me! Am I supposed to be your equal partner, and this is how our

relationship works? You constantly hiding things from me? I will not live like this!"

I turned to face him, letting him see the raw hurt in my eyes. He took a step

toward me, but I stepped back, refusing his comfort. Ryder's expression
