Melaniya's entire body shook. Her breaths were labored and her eyes out of focus. Sweat drenched her clothes, making the fabric stick to her body. The brunette's muscles screamed for her to stop, but she refused. Up, down, up, down. She had been going at it for awhile now. Exercise was better in the morning before Solis's heat made it near impossible. Finally, the shaking female dropped from her front leaning rest postiton. Looking up at the rising sun, Mel decided that it was due time for breakfast. Quickly she stretched her muscles and headed into the guild.
Judging by how many people were up, Melaniya guessed that she had been working out for a couple hours. She had a weird sleeping schedule. Late to bed and early to rise, the female rider slept whenever she could in the afternoon.
Riders were scattered throughout the large guild house, most still groggy. While Melaniya was First Rider, she didn't get a lot of respect from the other riders. Mel didn't particularly mind. What did annoy her were the new recruit's attitude towards her. They always thought that she was one to look up to, which was only natural, but they could at least refrain from the whispering and gawking that was so painfully obvious.
Finally Mel reached the dining area. There, many of the riders sat around joking and talking in small groups. Since the majority of the members of the White Dove were male, Mel spent most of her meals alone. Though, she usually welcomed anyone who came to sit by her. Mostly it was to talk about business. Sighing, the exhausted female sat down and waited for breakfast to be served.
