Chapter 8: Seedy Truce?

Riddick Pov.

He could feel her begin to move and shift in his lap, Every twitch and tug of her arms against the chains binding them together pulls her body in closer. From his angle he could see her face pulled into a pout of concentration as she attempted to work her hands free from the metal bindings.

Watching her body writhe against his chest and her hips bumping his lap was causing an almost forgotten heat to begin building back up in his gut.

"Watch yourself Pup, keep going like that and we won't be leaving these cuffs for a while," His breath is hot and airy against her ear, her hips and attempts at escaping coming to a stop as her body shivers at his threat, not fear, but anticipation.

Before either could respond or make an attempt at continuing earlier activities loud screeches from below the floor flooded the dark room of the ship, echoing off the walls.

3rd Pov.

She could hear her screams for help, that blonde haired bitch had gone into the hole herself, 'what a moron', She felt immense satisfaction as her screams were followed by starved screeches filled with excitement for the hunt.

The sounds were egging her on, building her own excitement to hunt her prey, and from the scent wafting from Riddick and the jittery shivers of his chest as his arms started yanking at the binds he was getting excited too.

"You can hear can't you Richie, the excitement of the beasts hunt, the bloodlust and hunger?" Her voice drips with velvet seduction, egging him, his response is a deep growl and a set of teeth pressing against my throat.

"You love poking the beast don't you, my little Dremorian."

"You have no Idea," Her head shifts to the side exposing more of her throat, a sign of submission that doesn't go unanswered.

His teeth sink deep into her smooth pale throat, her blood flooding his tongue a satisfied purr vibrating against the damaged flesh, her wolfen ears vibrate and snap back against her scalp, her own purr bursting forth from her lips. His teeth unlatched from her throat, his lips stained red with her life essence, "That's a good girl."

Their heated moment is once again interrupted by the sound of heavy footsteps pounding down the stairs, the overwhelming scent of morphine flooding their senses. Auras' nose scrunches as a loud growl leaves her lips. 'How dare he interrupt a courting request!'

Riddick chuckles at her adorable yet ferocious growls, His face shows amusement as Johns enters the room, yet his eyes tell a different story, rage at being interrupted for second time in a row while trying to court and make his little wolf submit, building deep within his gut.

Riddick looks up at johns and opens his mouth to speak, "Found somethin' worse than us, huh Johns?"

Johns glares down at the two of them, His blue eye slightly glazed and arrogant, his eyes snap down to Auras neck for a split second taken in the bleeding mess. "We're movin'. And I'm just wondering if I shouldn't lighten the load right now." His hands hover over his gun as he stares them down. Aura's body tenses up as she watches the two men have a mental showdown.

Riddick and John's eyes meet a silent war going on between, everything is silent for a moment. Then Johns makes a move, the sound of a cocked shotgun is the only warning they receive before its points at Riddick's face.

Aura just smirks and gives him an amused smile. "Woof, woof, Bitch."

The Shotgun goes off the sound deafening and a pain spreads through Auras right ear as blood begins to stain the fur, a small pellet had hit the tip of her ear. Riddick was alive with a small scrape on his shoulder from the same pellet. The shotgun had discharged next to his head and blew off the bindings holding them up. Aura slips from Riddick's lap as she grabs her ear, a scream of pain forcing itself from her mouth. Riddick felt the hot rage pour through his body like molten lava.

Johns looks down at the woman with a satisfied smirk, "Want you to remember this moment, Riddick. The way it coulda gone and didn't."

Riddick growls deep and threatening, "Say that again."

Johns unaware of the danger straightens up with a false sense of superiority. "Here's the deal. You work without the chains, without the bit - without the shivs. You help us get off this rock…".

Riddick glares and shifts his legs ready to move to Aura's side in a second. "For what? The honor of goin' back to some asshole of a cell?"

Johns gives a huff the scent of dishonesty oozes from him and Auras snorts through the pain in amusement, "Truth is, Riddick, I'm tired of this head-up shit. I wanna be free of you as much as you wanna be free of me"

Aura glances up at the two men, her hand soaked in blood as her ear begins to clot and the bleeding slows. 'This man is a fucking idiot if he thinks we'd fall for that'

Riddick chuckles, "You'd cut me loose, Boss?"

Johns spines tingles in the spot from the last scar Riddick left him. "Only if we both get outta this alive. And there may be a way." He offers a hand to help Riddick up, to seal the deal.

Riddick stares at his hand in well concealed rage. "My recommendation: Do me. Don't take the chance that I'll get shiv-happy on your wannabe ass. Ghost Us. Would do it If I were you."

Johns scoffs knowing they wont be able to move the cells without the stronger male. "If you were me, I'd kill us both. C'mon, you wanna sit at the grown-up table or not?"

A beat of silence stretches on, broken by little feminine growls as a certain wolf glares down John's body tightening waiting for an opening.

Riddick reaches out for the hand within that second Aura moves, quick and precise her foot striking out into Johns knee as Riddick snaps forward and grabs the shotgun with his off-hand. It all happened with a blur of movement. Suddenly Johns is staring at the eyes of his own shotgun. As Aura hold a broken piece of metal from the ship to his groin.

Riddick chuckles slow and deep as Aura purrs in approval, "Want you to remember this moment." He pumps the shotgun, spitting blue shells over Johns. He tosses the emptied weapon and helps aura to her feet grabbing both of the goggles from the nearby damaged table and stalks from the room his future mat in tow.
