Don't Poke the Luna (Xena and Ryder)

Chapter 122

Ryder's POV

"Well, you made it six miles when I thought you'd give up at five, so you're doing better than I expected. Though looking at your legs shaking like that, I'm surprised you made it this far,” I said with laugh.

"Go... to... hell," she managed between gasps. I watched her stubborn

expression, finding it strangely adorable despite myself.

I just chuckled at her defiance. "Come on." I extended my hand, and after she took it, we continued walking.

"How are you not even tired?" she asked a few minutes later.

"I'm an Alpha. We don't get tired," I lied. Just then, she stumbled, fortunately still holding my hand. "Need me to carry you?"

She glared at me but ignored my last comment. "I just haven't worked out for about a week, and I was injured before that."

"Alright, my poor little luna, let me show you something." We walked to the edge of a deep creek that ran through our territory. At the point where we stood, there was a waterfall flowing into a small pond, then the creek widened where water would drain out during rainy days.

"This place is beautiful," Xena said, releasing my hand to walk to the edge of the waterfall.
