A/N: Just wanted to thank you all again for all the comments and reviews... it keeps me going :) Hope you are still enjoying it. The next chapter is Shea and Vaako's wedding :) Yeah!!!
Kayleen laid with her head on Riddick's chest listening to his steady heartbeat and the air as it rushed in and out of his lungs. It seemed that neither one was too interested in getting up and starting the day. "Tell me about her Riddick. What was she like? You never really talk about her."
He took a deep breath and blew it out. She had the right to know about her sister and for the first time he didn't feel overwhelmed by guilt and pain when he thought of her. "First time I met her, I was chained, arms spread apart talking to Fry about the noises. Fry asked to see my eyes so of course I had to fuck with her and told her to come closer just so I could scare the shit out of her. I could smell the fear rolling off her and it made me laugh. I felt her before I saw or smelled her, a strong pull on my left side, no hint of fear just curiosity and awe. The youngest of the group and she was the only one that wasn't afraid of me.
So after I jump up and scare the life out of Fry she says to me, "Where the hell can I get eyes like that.""
"She liked your eyes?"
"Yeah. She would be so jealous that you have them." He laughed and thought about that for a second. "You have everything she ever wanted…" Kayleen felt the tears prick her eyes; she was living her sister's dream. The pain of it made her breath hitch. Kyra deserved so much better, so much more. If she had lived, would she be the one in Riddick's arms right now, carrying his babies? On the heels of pain was guilt, she couldn't imagine her life without him and Kyra died for that. She died so Kayleen could have a chance at love and happiness. Riddick was aware of the subtle shifts of her moods and the emotions that were swamping her. "She was like a sister to me Kayleen, nothing more. I never looked at her that way. Something in me just needed to keep her safe and that was something that had never happened before. I was intrigued."
"You felt something when you saw her at Crematoria." She said it gently with no actuation or blame, just simple fact.
"I'll admit I found her attractive, she was sexy as hell. I hadn't seen her in five years, just didn't realizes she grew up. When I saw her, it was almost like seeing different person. It wasn't Jack I was looking at, it was a strong woman; a predator and the animal in me recognized that. The more she fought me, the more the beast wanted to dominate her. I can't help it, it's my nature." Fuck why am I saying this? Why can't I just shut up!
"Why didn't it you two, you know…?" Stay calm girl. He didn't even know you existed. Don't jump all over him when he finally, for once is opening up to you.
"Well, we were locked up in a dark and dirty prison for one. She was just about raped in front of me, told me she was slaved out by mercs and then we were breaking out, never any time. Besides underneath it all, she was still Jack. That twelve year old I took of that planet, the one with the shaved head and those goofy, broken goggles."
She changed the subject before the two of them started fighting. He's mine! Yeah, yeah, I know, he knows, everyone knows, so shut up. "So she shaved her head?"
"Yeah. I'm not sure where she found the razor. Fuck I had to use a homemade shiv and fucking axel grease, not the best way to save one's head, I assure you."
"I bet."
"She and one of Imam's boys were trying to follow me without my knowing it. I knew every step they made. Everyone still thought she was a boy at this point so while they thought it was kind of weird that she had saved her head, they would have been shitting themselves if they knew she was a girl. Never would have let her near me."
"Why? You've never hurt a woman or a kid."
"Well, Johns had them so scared of me, convinced I would kill them while they slept for no good reason. Little did they know he was the one that would've. Sick fuck."
"Why did you go back for them? Imam and her? Why didn't you and Fry just leave?"
"I was strapping myself in when Fry came running up. The look on her face, she knew all along what I had planned. Told her to come with me, she almost did too. Then she decided to get cute and jump me."
"Fry jumped you?" Kayleen laughed, she couldn't imagine how that had happened.
"I was distracted."
"Right, by what, her ass?" Riddick growled at her causing her to shiver.
"That's when she told me that she would die for them. This didn't make sense to me; I've never felt that way before, never even considered such a thing. I was out for my own ass and that was it. Then I thought about her eyes. The trust she had in them. She looked at me like a person, not an animal. I went back for her, still not sure why but something made me go back.
After we got off that rock, her attachment to me only grew. Imam was kind of nervous about it but I think somewhere he knew I wouldn't hurt her. She killed that bitch and saved my life. She saved my life. This skinny little twelve year old girl cared enough about me to save me. She was differently a different breed."
"Furyan."
"No doubt. That was when I found out what I was, though I had never heard of Furya before. She dug up all she could find, which I can tell you wasn't much. Just that something had wiped out pretty much everything and there was nothing left."
"You know, if they had admitted I actually existed and perhaps had a photo of me, she would have known who I was."
"Maybe…"
"Why did you leave?" Kayleen could feel him starting to clam up, not wanting to talk any more. "Just tell me that and I will drop the subject."
"Fine. I left because I cared. She and Imam would have a better life without me there. They didn't have mercs after them. I left to give her a chance."
"But she couldn't accept that? She went after you?"
"Yeah."
"Fucking stubborn Furyans, defiant till the end, I would have done the same thing you know that. Remember that Riddick. You leave me and I'll track you to the gates of hell and kick the shit out of you." He laughed knowing she was telling the truth.
"So woman, why are you so fat?" Riddick tried to keep a straight face but when he heard her gasp he couldn't help but laugh out loud. "I mean, I was only gone a week. What were you eating?" Kayleen straddled him and punched him in the chest; he didn't even seem to notice he was laughing too hard.
"I'm not fat you fuck, I'm pregnant with your overgrown, hard headed children. I know they are going to be just like you. Someone hates me, that's what this is. I'm going to huge and you're not going to want to touch me, not that you will be able to reach past my fat ass stomach anyway."
"Hey, what's that suppose to mean? I'll reach, I got plenty. Besides, you'll still have your mouth, your stomach can't get in the way of that."
"Humm… I think I read somewhere about uncontrollable muscle spasms in the jaw late in pregnancy. You may what to rethink that sweetheart." Riddick looked at her trying to figure out if she was telling the truth. He had no idea what went on during pregnancy and for all he knew she could be serious. He saw the counter of her mouth twitch and he knew she was fucking with him. As retaliation he slapped her hard on the ass. "Oww that hurt." She rubbed the quickly rising welt on her butt as he raised an eyebrow at her.
"You liked it." His voice dropped two octaves and whispered over her skin. He could smell her desire growing for him so he reached back and slapped the other cheek.
"Hey Riddick!" He growled and flipped her over on her back so fast she got dizzy for a second. Before she could get her bearings, she felt him slam into her, creating a new way of lightheadedness. She couldn't help the moan that escaped her as he began to move. Kayleen grabbed his ass and let her nails dig into his flesh causing him to hiss out in pleasure and pain. He only increased his pace and the strength of his thrusts. He bit down hard on her nipple causing her to scream out.
"That's it baby, scream for me." Riddick was slamming into her now, his body looming over hers for leverage. Kayleen couldn't stop herself, she leaned forward and bit him hard on the shoulder, just were it started into his neck. It was his turn to cry out as they both felt him growing larger inside of her, pounding into her without mercy. She could taste his blood on her tongue as she smiled against his skin. Riddick put all of his weight on her, forcing her to lie down flat as he found the same spot on her and clenched down with his teeth, breaking the skin just as she had. He felt Kayleen starting to ripple around him as she screamed out again. "Come on baby, let go, come for me."
"Oh God Riddick," She screamed one last time before she flew over the edge, taking him with her.
