Don't Poke the Luna (Xena and Ryder) novel Chapter 124

Ryder’s POV

“OH! FUCK!” I shouted in panic. Xena’s eyes snapped open, and she burst into laughter, her body shaking with mirth. “I scared the hell out of you!” she gasped, her voice bright with mischief, her eyes gleaming with that playful spark.

My pulse was still racing, a mix of adrenaline, anger, and something sharper–embarrassment, maybe. “Don’t do that again,” I growled, my voice low. The fear lingered, a cold knot in my chest.

Xena slid closer, her hands finding my waist, her touch warm against my chilled skin. Her gaze dropped to my lips, and I felt the air shift, charged with something heavier than her teasing. “It was just joke,” she murmured, but her breath was laced with something else, something that made my blood hum. Her legs brushed against mine beneath the water, and through the bond we shared, I could feel the pulse of her desire.

“It was a shitty joke,” I said, my voice quieter now, but still rough with the edge of my anger. “You dying isn’t a game to me.” 1 sank lower into the water, my hands finding her hips, my fingers digging into the soft curve of her. The contact grounded me, pulling me back from the edge of that fear.

Xena’s lips curved into a sly smile. “Can I make it up to you?” Her voice was a low, sultry purr, and before I could answer, she leaned in, her tongue flicking against my earlobe. The wet, warm sensation sent a jolt through me, my body reacting before my mind could catch up. One of her hands broke the surface of the water, gripping my shoulder for leverage, while the other slid down, bold and unapologetic, wrapping around my cock.-

I sucked in a breath, already hardening under her touch. “You can try,” I managed, my voice rough, barely more than a rasp.

She pressed herself closer, her breasts soft against my chest, the friction driving me to the edge of control. Her lips hovered near mine, teasing, as her hand moved in slow, deliberate strokes. My cock was rock–hard now, throbbing under her grip, and every nerve in my body was screaming for more.

My hands moved on instinct, sliding down to the space between her thighs. I didn’t hesitate, slipping two fingers inside her, feeling the heat of her body even in the cool water. She gasped against my lips, her hand faltering for a moment as I worked her, my thumb circling her clit with just enough pressure to make her squirm.

“Oh, God,” she moaned, her head tipping back, wet hair fanning out across the water’s surface. Her reaction was like gasoline on the fire of my desire, her body trembling under my touch. I could feel her tightening around my fingers, her breath coming in short, desperate bursts.

I hooked my arms under her thighs, lifting her until her legs wrapped around my waist. With one swift motion, I thrust into her, hard and deep. Her scream echoed across the lake, her nails digging into my shoulders, the sharp sting blending with the

overwhelming pleasure of being inside her. She was tight, hot, her body clenching around me like she was trying

to consume me.

me deeper,

I carried her to a nearby rock, its surface smoothed by years of water. I set her down, her upper body resting against the stone, her lower half still submerged. The position gave me full access, and I didn’t hold back, fucking her with a rhythm that was both relentless and precise. Her moans grew louder, her hands clutching at the rock, at me, at anything she could reach.

I slowed my pace, leaning down to trail my lips across her chest. I found that spot on her left breast, the one that always drove her wild, and when my tongue flicked over it, her hips bucked, a shudder running through her entire body. The sight of her like that- completely undone, lost in the pleasure I was giving her–nearly pushed me over the edge.

I lifted her fully onto the rock, her hips just clear of the water. “Oh! Oh! Oh!” she cried, her hands tangling in my hair, her body trembling as I kissed and sucked at her skin. Her legs shook violently on either side of my head, but I pulled back just before she could tip over into climax, savoring the frustrated whimper that escaped her.

tugged her back into the water, my cock sliding into her again with a force that made us both groan. Our movements synced, a perfect rhythm of push and pull, my lips crashing against hers in a kiss that was all heat and hunger. I gripped her hips, taking on

most of the effort as her legs began to tire, driving into her with a intensity that felt like it could shatter us both. Her body was made for mine, every thrust pulling me deeper into her, until her orgasm hit, her walls pulsing around me. I followed her over the edge, my release crashing through me like a tidal wave.

I was ready to go again, but Xena had other plans. With a sudden bust of strength, she pushed me back, pinning me against the rocky wall of the lake’s edge.

“What-” I started, confusion cutting through the haze of pleasure.

She didn’t answer. Instead, she guided me out of the water, urging me to sit on the edge of the rock. Before I could process what was happening, her lips closed around my still–hard cock, taking me deep into her mouth.

“Fuck…” I growled, my body jolting at the sudden, intense sensation I shifted to get more comfortable, my hands gripping the rock as she worked me with a skill that left me breathless. Her hand cupped my balls, massaging them gently as she took nearly all of me into her mouth, moving with a rhythm that was both torturous and perfect. She didn’t gag, didn’t falter, just kept going, faster and faster, until I couldn’t hold back any longer. I came hard, my head falling back as I spilled into her throat.

When I looked down, she was licking her lips, a smug, satisfied glint in her eyes. My chest was still heaving, my body buzzing with the aftershocks, but I wasn’t done with her yet. “Woman,” I growled, pulling her into the water and kissing her deeply, fiercely. Her arms and legs wrapped around me, holding me close as our bodies pressed together.

“Is that so, Mr. Alpha?” she teased when we finally broke the kiss, her voice low and playful.
