3RD p.o.v

Aura laid relaxed against Riddicks chest after their finished grooming session. A deep purr reverberates throughout her chest as a now clean and happy silver tails wags lazily across the two lovers.

Riddicks strong arms wrapped protectively around her small waist. She was still so tiny compared to himself. He was at least 3 times her size, and deep down his beast growled in enjoyment at being able to keep her entire body curled up on his abdomen. Her legs laid on either side of his waist.

Fluffy silver ears perk up atop an equally glorious silver mane.

Aura growls, feral and angry.

Johns was calling for them. Whistling l8ke they were a pair of domestic dogs. Her patience ran thin with the mercs continued existence. She wasn't to sure what Riddick was waiting on, she believes he may be waiting until the ship is repaired before they take it themselves.

Pushing herself up atop his much larger body she meets Riddicks eyes in the dark with a disgruntled pout. "The morphine merc is searching for us, we should go before the asshole finds our little nest."

"Right." A large hand pats her butt, before grabbing her hips and lifting her easily into his arms. Standing up from the bed, he keeps one arm, under her rump, pressing her close into his side as pulls their goggles back in place. Grabbing her bag he tosses over the opposite shoulder and leaves the darkened room back out into sweltering desert of three sun's.

Riddick p.o.v

I could feel the buckles and metal of Aura chest covering pressing into my chest and her lithe agile legs pressed into my waist keeping herself stable in my arms. She was covered in a layer of muscle from years of exercise and fighting.

Her weapons were hidden expertly within her head fur, pants and buckles. Her twin blood red daggers were stored safely in the bag swinging innocently against his back.

'Johns just keeps pushing the boundaries with our so called deal. If that fucker doesn't keep his hands and thoughts to himself about my mate...I'm going to rip him apart' I could finally see said merc come into view as I stalk closer to what was once a gathering area for the previous colony inhabitants. He was standing outside the door.

Small footsteps echoed behind Aura and I. Jack the young "boy". He'd recently begun wearing little cracked goggles he'd found, and had what looked like faux fur tied around his waist. The shaved head was a new addition however, and I could hear my little mate giggle into My shoulder at the sight of my new mini fan.

She pats my shoulder as John's and Jack head into the building. "Come on Richie, the sooner we get this over with the sooner we can go back to the nest." With a quickly nuzzle of noses, Riddick walks into the room. Earning bewildered and jealous glares alike at the site of the young murderous held so protectively.

Fry was giving Aura the stink eye as the silver furred woman gave her an arrogant smirk over her broad lovers shoulder. I have to repress my chuckles as the pilot just gets more annoyed the longer I keep my mate in my arms. Johns was glaring holes into my back as well, it was...amusing. Watching such a pathetic pair believe they have the right of jealousy.

The others seemed to be uncomfortable. Watching the blatant and uncaring display of what could only be affection as the large dangerous man leans against a creepy table and situates his woman to more a comfortable position. pressed chest to chest with her legs around his waist and his arms supporting her.

Jack appeared to be the only one interested and excited at the scene. He liked miss Aura. She gave him water when she didnt have to so even if she was a killer she obviously wasnt as bad as the cop was making her seem to everyone. and Riddick was awesome, the way he scared Fry while he was tied up in the hull of the Hunter gratzner was hilarious. He saw her jump in fright when he suddenly shot up with a growl.

Water was spread across one of the tables. Small glass wine ware was full of fresh cold water straight from the machine outside. Imam and shazza were handing out a glass to every person, by the time they got to myself and Aura Shazza only brought over one glass and passed it directly to myself.

"Sorry, there wasn't enough left for both of you." She was anything but sorry. She despised Aura and refused to aid her in any way, and the Glas she'd handed to Riddick had sand, and dirt floating at the bottom and I could clearly see and smell a glob of spit floating on its surface.

Giving the woman an unimpressed glare through my dark goggles I stare her down as I slowly pour it onto the floor beneath my feet. Aura and I had plenty of water for the both of us from her supplies she gathered on the ship. I was not going to put Shazzas rancid saliva in my body.

Th rook grew quiet as Shazzas face bloomed red in fury. Stomping away from the rwo convicts she joins Fry as the celebration of water begins.
