The air on M6-117 was a thick, abrasive soup of heat and silica. It tasted like scorched metal and desperation. Above, the three suns had finally slipped behind the ringed giant, plunging the world into a blue-black void that belonged to things with too many teeth and no eyes.

Reader’s POV

You clutched your shiv, the plastic handle slick with a mixture of grease and cold sweat. Every nerve ending in your body was screaming, but it wasn't just the rhythmic click-clack of the bioraptors in the limestone crags. There was a low-frequency thrum in your blood—a psychic vibration you’d been fighting since the Hunter-Gratzner had ripped through the atmosphere.

You were an Omega, a biological rarity you’d spent your adult life burying under cycles of heavy-duty suppressants. On the ship, you smelled like ozone, engine oil, and charcoal. You had to. In a galaxy where Omegas were treated as either state-owned breeding stock or fragile prizes, being "unclaimed" was a death sentence.

"Keep moving," Fry hissed from ahead, her voice cracking with the strain of leadership.

You looked toward the front of the line. Riddick was a silhouette of lethal, predatory grace. He moved through the pitch-black rain as if the darkness was a silken robe he’d tailored himself. Every time he glanced back, those silvered eyes catching the faint, dying glow of the power cells, your chest constricted. It wasn't just fear of the convict. It was a biological tether, snapping taut against your ribs.

Not now, you pleaded with your own biology. Not here, in the dirt.

Riddick’s POV

The darkness was alive, whispering with the sound of leathery wings and the wet tear of flesh. To the others, it was a tomb. To Riddick, it was a playground. But something was off.

Through the sharp scent of wet limestone and the metallic tang of blood, a new note was cutting through the air. It was faint—fragile as a dying star. A scent of crushed violets and wild honey, buried deep under a chemical mask that was rapidly evaporating in the rain.

Riddick’s nostrils flared, his lungs burning with the sudden intake. His inner Alpha, a beast he usually kept behind a wall of cold iron and indifference, began to pace. He’d spent his life in holes where the only smells were piss, rot, and the stale fear of other men. He didn't believe in "mates." He believed in the weight of a blade and the speed of a kill.

He stopped, his head tilting at an unnatural angle. The scent was strongest near the back. Near you.

"Something's wrong," Johns growled, leveling his shotgun at the shadows, his eyes darting.

"Everything’s wrong, Merc," Riddick rumbled. The sound came from deep in his chest, a vibration that seemed to settle right in your marrow. He turned his head, his goggles reflecting the bioluminescence of the canyon. He saw the way your hands hovered near your throat, the way your breath was hitching in a rhythm he recognized. You weren't just scared; you were reacting.

Third Person POV

The final stretch to the shuttle was a slaughterhouse. The rain was torrential now, a vertical river that drowned out the flares and turned the sand to slick mud. In the chaos, a bioraptor lunged from a high ridge, its screech a physical blow to the ears.

"Get to the ship! Move or die!" Riddick roared, his voice cutting through the storm.

You lunged forward, but your foot caught on a jagged outcrop. You went down hard, the impact jarring the last of the suppressant-induced fog from your brain. Adrenaline—pure and spiked with terror—flooded your system, acting as a catalyst. The chemical dam broke.

In an instant, the atmosphere changed. The scent exploded. It was no longer a hint; it was a localized supernova of Omega pheromones, sweet and intoxicating, signaling a state of total, desperate vulnerability.

Riddick froze in mid-stride. The world slowed to a crawl. The predatory instincts that made him a monster suddenly fused with a protective rage so vast it eclipsed the darkness of the planet. Every cell in his body screamed a single command.

Protect. Claim. Kill.

He was on the creature before it could even extend its claws toward you. It was a blur of silver light and black blood. He didn't just kill it; he dismantled it, his blades shearing through membrane and bone with a feral efficiency that left even Johns paralyzed with awe.

Riddick stood over you, a wall of muscle and shadow. His own scent—dark musk, rain-drenched earth, and ancient, heavy power—crushed down on you, shielding you from the world.

"Riddick, we have to go! Now!" Fry screamed from the ramp of the rising shuttle.

He didn't move. He reached down, his massive, scarred hand locking around your forearm to hoist you up. When his bare skin touched yours, a literal spark of static leaped between you, visible in the dark. The Bond snapped shut like a steel trap.

You looked up, gasping for air that was now thick with him. "You," you breathed, the word lost in the wind.

"Yeah," he growled, his voice dropping to a register meant only for your ears. "Me. Now move."

The Shuttle: Cargo Hold

The doors hissed shut, sealing out the screams of M6-117. The shuttle was a cramped, vibrating metal box, lit only by the flickering red of the emergency lights. In the cockpit, Fry and Jack were screaming over the comms, but back in the shadows of the hold, the air was stagnant and heavy with a different kind of tension.

There was no more hiding. The suppressants were gone. The Bond was a living thing between you.

Riddick didn't wait for an invitation. He shoved you back against the cold metal bulkhead, his body a heavy, welcome weight that pinned you in place. He pushed his goggles up onto his forehead, letting his silver eyes burn into yours.

"How long?" he demanded, his hands framing your head, his knuckles grazing the metal. "How long you been choking that scent down with pills?"

"Always," you whispered, your fingers digging into the hard ridges of his leather vest. Your body was betraying you, your hips involuntary arching toward his. "I didn't think... I didn't know it was you."

"I knew the second the rain hit you," he growled. He leaned in, his nose dragging along the line of your jaw, inhaling as if he could pull your very soul into his lungs. "You smell like home. And I've never had a home."

He slammed his mouth onto yours. It wasn't a kiss; it was a collision. He tasted of salt, rain, and iron. His tongue was a hot, demanding intruder, and you met it with a desperation that surprised even him. You needed the contact. You needed the mark.

His large, calloused hands slid down your body, mapping every curve before hooking under your thighs and hoisting you up. You wrapped your legs around his waist, pulling him flush against your aching core. A broken moan escaped your throat as he bit your bottom lip, drawing a single drop of blood that he licked away with a low hiss of approval.

"You're screaming for it," he muttered against your skin, his hands fumbling with the heavy fabric of your flight suit. "Your heart is beating so hard I can feel it against my own ribs."

He stripped the suit down to your waist, his eyes darkening as he took in the sight of you in the dim red light. He didn't waste time with gentleness. He latched onto one breast, his mouth hot and possessive, while his thumb worked the other peak into a hard point. You arched your back, your head hitting the bulkhead with a dull thud, your eyes rolling back in sheer, sensory overload.

Riddick's own gear was shed with brutal efficiency. When he pressed his hardness against your entrance—already weeping and ready for him—you let out a high, thin cry.

"Look at me," he commanded, his voice a low vibration that commanded obedience.

You opened your eyes, drowning in that silver gaze.

"I'm going to take what's mine," he promised, his muscles bunching. "And I'm never letting go."

He drove into you in one heavy, soul-shattering thrust. You screamed, the sound muffled by his shoulder as you buried your face in his neck. He was huge, filling you so completely it felt like he was reaching your very center.

He didn't give you time to adjust. He began a rhythmic, punishing pace, his hips striking yours with the force of a hammer. Every thrust was a vow, a claim, a reclamation of a life spent in the dark. You were sobbing now, not from pain, but from the sheer, staggering rightness of it.

"Riddick," you gasped, your nails drawing blood from his back. "Richard..."

He growled at the use of his name, his pace turning frantic. He buried his face in the crook of your neck, his teeth grazing your scent gland. Just as the shuttle broke the atmosphere and the silence of space took hold, he bit down—hard—marking you forever.

The climax hit like a physical explosion. You shattered in his arms, the world dissolving into sparks and heat. Riddick followed a second later, a deep, guttural roar echoing in the small hold as he poured himself into you.

Minutes later, as the ship leveled out into the stars, he pulled back just enough to look at you. His mark was vivid on your neck, a dark bruise of possession. He reached up, smoothing a stray hair from your forehead with a tenderness that would have terrified anyone else.

"Not going back to a cage," he whispered, his voice finally steady. "Either of us. We're going to the deep dark. Together."

The silence of deep space was absolute, a stark contrast to the screaming winds of the planet they’d left behind. Inside the cargo hold, the red emergency lighting bathed the metal walls in a bloody, low-light glow.

Reader’s POV

The world was still spinning, even though your back was pressed against a stationary bulkhead. Every inch of your skin felt hyper-sensitized, humming with the aftershocks of the Bond. The heavy, metallic scent of Riddick—now mixed with your own—was so thick it was like breathing silk.

You looked up at him, your breath still coming in shallow hitches. He hadn't moved. He remained locked deep inside you, his forehead resting against yours, his chest heaving in tandem with your own. For a man who lived like a ghost, he felt incredibly solid, incredibly real.

"You're shaking," he murmured. It wasn't a question. He could feel the fine tremors in your thighs where they were still locked around his waist.

"It's... a lot," you managed to whisper, your voice sounding foreign to your own ears. "The suppressants... they kept everything so quiet. I didn't know the world could feel this loud."

He pulled back just an inch, his silver eyes searching yours with an intensity that made you want to hide and be seen all at once. "The world is loud," he rumbled, a ghost of a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. "Most people just aren't listening. You're listening now."

Riddick’s POV

He could hear the ship. The whine of the cooling vents, the distant murmur of Fry and Jack in the cockpit, the steady thrum-thrum of the engine. But louder than all of it was the sound of your blood rushing under your skin.

His mark was cooling on your neck, the jagged edges of it standing out against your pale skin. It was a brand. A warning to the rest of the universe that you were off-limits. The Alpha in him, usually a starved wolf, felt a strange, heavy sense of peace. He’d spent his life looking over his shoulder, but for the first time, he felt like he had a reason to stand his ground.

"You're thinking about leaving," you said softly, your hand coming up to trace the line of his jaw.

Riddick’s eyes narrowed. "I’m an escaped convict, little Omega. I don't stay in one place long enough for the dust to settle."

"I didn't ask you to stay in one place," you countered, your fingers sliding into the short, dark hair at the nape of his neck. "I just asked if you were leaving."

He felt the pull of the Bond—a golden thread wrapped around his heart, tugging him toward you. He couldn't leave. Not anymore. The universe had just gotten a lot smaller, and it centered entirely on the person in his arms.

Third Person POV

Riddick finally withdrew, the loss of contact making you both hiss through your teeth as the cold air of the hold rushed between you. He reached down, grabbing a discarded thermal blanket from a nearby crate and wrapping it around your shoulders with surprisingly deft movements.

"Clean yourself up," he commanded, though the edge was gone from his voice, replaced by a rough sort of care. "We'll be at the refueling station in three cycles. After that, we disappear."

You pulled the blanket tight, watching him as he pulled his vest back on and adjusted his goggles. "Where?"

He paused at the door of the hold, his silhouette framed by the dim light of the corridor. He turned his head, the silver of his eyes catching a stray beam of light.

"To the places they don't have names for," he said. "To the edges of the map where the light doesn't reach. That’s where we live."

"And if they find us?" you asked, standing up on shaky legs, the blanket trailing behind you like a cloak.

Riddick stepped back into your space, his hand coming up to cup the back of your head, his thumb stroking over the fresh mark on your neck. The look in his eyes wasn't just predatory—it was promised violence for anyone who dared to try.

"Let 'em try," he growled. "I’ve been killing in the dark my whole life. Now, I’ve finally got something worth keeping the lights out for."

He leaned down, pressing one last, bruising kiss to your forehead—a seal on the contract written in blood and starlight. Then, with the silent grace of a shadow, he turned and vanished into the bowels of the ship, leaving you in the quiet, the scent of him still clinging to your skin like a promise.

You weren't an Omega hiding in the engine grease anymore. You were a mate to the most dangerous man in the sectors. And as you looked out the small porthole at the infinite stretch of the cosmos, for the first time in your life, you weren't afraid of the dark.

The hum of the engines took on a deeper, more resonant vibration as the shuttle’s stabilizers fought against the thinning atmosphere of the planet’s outer rim. But inside the hold, the only rhythm that mattered was the synchronized thrum of two hearts locked into a biological frequency they could no longer ignore.

Reader’s POV

The grain alcohol was a fire in your veins, but Riddick’s gaze was hotter. With the suppressants gone, your senses weren't just open; they were raw. You could smell the spent gunpowder on his skin, the salt of his sweat, and that deep, earthen Alpha scent that acted like a physical weight on your shoulders, pushing you down, demanding you yield—and for the first time in your life, yielding felt like power.

You reached out, your fingers sliding under the hem of his tactical vest, feeling the ridged scars on his abdomen. Each one was a story of a world that had tried to break him and failed.

"You're marking me again," you whispered, noticing the way his silver eyes tracked the movement of your throat as you swallowed.

"I’m keeping track of what’s mine," he rumbled. His hands moved from the crates to your waist, his fingers sinking into your hips with a bruising pressure that made your breath hitch. "In the dark, touch is the only map that matters."

Riddick’s POV

He could feel the heat radiating off you in waves—sweet, intoxicating, and loud. To anyone else, you were just a survivor huddled in a blanket. To him, you were a beacon. The Bond was pulsing, a golden wire tightened to the breaking point, vibrating with every breath you took.

He’d always viewed his "shine" as a tool for hunting, a way to see the things that wanted to kill him before they had the chance. Now, looking at you, the light reflected off your skin made you look like something celestial. Something that didn't belong in a grease-stained cargo hold.

His inner Alpha was snarling, a low, constant vibration of possessiveness. He wanted to wrap himself around you and let the rest of the universe burn.

"You're thinking about the hunt," you murmured, sensing the shift in his energy.

"The hunt's over," he said, his voice dropping to a rasp. "Now comes the keeping."

Third Person POV

Riddick moved with a sudden, fluid grace, hoisting you off the crates and backing you into a corner where the shadows were thickest. The thermal blanket fell away, forgotten on the floor, as he pressed his body against yours. The contrast was staggering—the cold, unyielding metal of the ship at your back and the searing, living heat of him at your front.

He didn't use his hands this time. He used his teeth.

He leaned into the crook of your neck, his mouth grazing the mark he’d already left. He didn't bite, not yet; he just let his breath hit the sensitized skin until you were arching your back, a low, desperate whine escaping your lips.

"Riddick... please..."

"Please what?" he challenged, his voice vibrating against your pulse point. "You want the dark? Or you want the man in it?"

"I want everything," you gasped, your hands tangling in his hair, pulling him closer. "I want the mark, the dark... I want you."

He let out a guttural sound—half-growl, half-shudder—and hiked your legs up around his waist once more. The connection was instantaneous, a desperate realignment of two souls that had been drifting in the void for too long. He moved with a brutal, rhythmic intent, his forehead pressed against yours, his eyes never closing. He wanted to see you break; he wanted to see you find yourself in the middle of the wreckage.

In the cockpit, Fry called out a course correction, her voice tinny and distant over the ship’s speakers. But in the hold, there was no course, no destination, and no law. There was only the friction of skin, the scent of the Bond, and the silent vow of a monster who had finally found something he loved more than the shadows.

As you both peaked, a unified cry lost to the roar of the engines, Riddick gripped you so tight it felt like he was trying to pull you inside his own ribs.

"Got you," he whispered into the silence of the aftermath, his voice a promise that echoed into the stars. "And the galaxy can try its best to take you back. They’ll just end up in the ground."

The shuttle eventually became a memory, a discarded shell left at the edge of a dead system. Riddick had navigated through the "Devil’s Throat"—a cluster of black holes and ionized gas that would strip the sensors off any Company ship—to a moon that didn't appear on any colonial chart.

It was a world of eternal twilight, lit only by the bioluminescent flora that clung to the jagged obsidian cliffs. It was silent, it was cold, and it was perfect.

Reader’s POV

The "homestead" was a fortified cave system overlooking a valley of glowing ferns. You’d spent months here, carving a life out of the rock. You were no longer the trembling Omega in the grease-stained flight suit. Your skin had tanned, your muscles had hardened, and you wore the furs of the indigenous predators Riddick had hunted for you.

But today, the air in the cave felt too thick. The cooling vents of the salvaged life-support system weren't enough. A low, throbbing ache had started in your lower back, radiating through your hips until your knees felt weak.

The suppressants were a lifetime away. This was your first true heat, and it was hitting you with the force of a tidal wave. Your scent—that honey-and-violet sweetness—was pouring off you, filling the cavern, calling out into the twilight.

"Riddick," you whimpered, your fingers clutching the edge of the stone hearth. Your body felt like it was melting from the inside out.

Riddick’s POV

He was three miles away, skinning a kill in the valley, when the wind shifted.

The knife froze in his hand. His nostrils flared, picking up the scent of fertile earth and nectar. It wasn't just an itch anymore; it was a physical blow to his gut. His inner Alpha didn't just wake up—it took the wheel.

He left the kill where it lay. He didn't run; he moved with a relentless, predatory lope that covered the distance in minutes. Every instinct he’d ever used to survive was now focused on a single, biological imperative.

The nest. The mate. The legacy.

He reached the cave entrance, his silver eyes glowing with a feral intensity that would have sent a Mercenary running for their life. He saw you slumped by the fire, your skin flushed a deep, feverish pink, your eyes clouded with a need so ancient it predated language.

"It's time," he rumbled, his voice dropping to a register that made the very floor of the cave vibrate.

Third Person POV

Riddick didn't hesitate. He crossed the cavern in two long strides, his boots echoing on the obsidian. He didn't just pick you up; he claimed you, his massive arms locking around you as he carried you toward the "nest"—a wide stone platform piled deep with soft furs and the scent of him.

"You're burning up," he muttered, his large hand cupping your face. His thumb traced your lower lip, which was wet and trembling.

"It hurts," you gasped, your hands frantically tearing at his leather vest, needing the friction of his skin. "Riddick, please... I can't breathe."

He shed his gear with a controlled violence, his muscles bunching under his scarred skin. He looked down at you, and for the first time, the cold, calculating killer was gone. In his place was a provider—a founder.

"This is what we're here for," he whispered, his forehead pressing against yours. "No more running. No more hiding. We build something here. Something they can't touch."

He moved over you, his weight a grounding force against the storm of your heat. When he entered you this time, it wasn't the frantic, desperate coupling of the shuttle. It was slow, deep, and deliberate. Each thrust was designed to maximize the contact, to ensure the Bond was sealed not just in spirit, but in blood and seed.

"You want them?" he growled into your ear, his teeth grazing the scarred mark on your neck. "You want my pups? Little monsters to run these cliffs?"

The thought of it—of a pack, of a family born in the shadows—sent a surge of primal joy through you that eclipsed the pain of the heat. "Yes," you cried out, your legs locking around his waist, pulling him as deep as he could go. "Give them to me. Fill me up, Riddick. Please."

The Aftermath

Days passed in a blur of fever and friction. The heat eventually broke, leaving both of you exhausted and tangled in the furs as the bioluminescent moon rose over the valley.

Riddick lay on his back, your head resting on his chest. His hand, which had killed dozens, was resting gently over the curve of your stomach. He wasn't looking at the darkness anymore; he was looking at you.

"They'll have your eyes," you whispered, tracing the lines of his tattoos.

"And your heart," he replied, his voice a low, contented rumble. "God help the galaxy when they're grown. They won't know what hit 'em."

In the silence of their secret world, the Alpha and his Omega drifted off to sleep, no longer just survivors, but the beginning of a dynasty hidden in the stars.

The transition from the fever of heat to the stillness of the aftermath was like the air after a lightning storm—heavy, charged, and impossibly clean. The cave was silent, save for the crackle of the dying fire and the rhythmic, deep thrum of Riddick’s heartbeat against your ear.

Reader’s POV

You felt different. The hollow ache that had lived in your chest since the crash was gone, replaced by a profound sense of density. It was as if your soul had finally grown roots into the obsidian floor of this moon.

You shifted your legs, feeling the lingering soreness and the drying salt on your skin. Riddick’s arm was a heavy, warm iron bar across your waist, holding you flush against his side. You looked at the bioluminescent moss on the ceiling, glowing like a map of a private galaxy.

"You're awake," you whispered.

"Always," he rumbled. He didn't move, but you felt the muscles in his chest tighten as he drew in a long, slow breath, scenting the air—scenting the change in you.

Riddick’s POV

He was tracking the shift in her biology. It was subtle, but to his senses, it was like a flare in the dark. The scent of "heat" had vanished, replaced by a deep, earthy sweetness that signaled the end of the cycle and the beginning of something else.

He thought about the life he’d led—shackles, slamming doors, the smell of ozone and blood. He’d never expected to be an anchor for anyone. But the idea of a pack, of small, silver-eyed shadows moving through these caves, felt more right than anything he’d ever felt in a cockpit or a cage.

He shifted his hand, his large palm spreading over the flat of your stomach. He wasn't just touching you; he was standing guard.

"It took," he said. It wasn't a guess. It was a statement of fact.

Third Person POV

You turned in his arms, propping yourself up on one elbow to look down at him. His goggles were off, his silver eyes reflecting the dim blue glow of the cave. For the first time, the predatory tension in his face had smoothed out into something resembling peace—a dangerous, watchful peace, but peace nonetheless.

"How do you know?" you asked, searching his gaze.

"I can hear it," he said, his voice a low vibration. "The rhythm's changing. Everything in here is starting to work for someone else now."

He sat up, pulling you into his lap so you were straddling him, the furs falling away from your shoulders. He cupped the back of your head, pulling your face down until your foreheads touched.

"We’re gonna need more than just this cave," he muttered, his mind already calculating. "More meat. Better insulation for the winter cycle. I’ll start on the south cavern tomorrow. Make it a nursery. Line it with the thickest furs we’ve got."

You let out a soft laugh, the sound echoing against the stone walls. "The most dangerous man in the universe is building a nursery?"

Riddick’s eyes flashed, a predatory smirk tugging at his lips. He nipped at your chin, his teeth sharp and possessive.

"I'm building a fortress," he corrected. "Nobody gets in. Nobody gets out. The Company wants to find us? They’ll have to walk through a graveyard to get to the door."

He pulled you down into a deep, slow kiss—one that tasted of promises and a future they’d stolen from the stars. He’d spent his whole life running through the dark, but as he held you, Riddick finally felt like he was exactly where he was supposed to be.

Outside, the twilight moon continued its slow arc across the sky, indifferent to the fact that the galaxy’s newest and most lethal dynasty had just taken its first breath in the shadows.

The moons of the Sigma system moved in a slow, rhythmic dance above the obsidian cliffs, but inside the cavern, time had slowed to the crawl of a heartbeat. The air was cool, yet the space between your bodies remained a furnace.

Reader’s POV

The soreness in your limbs felt like a badge of honor. Your body felt different—heavier, grounded, as if the very atoms of your being had realigned to accommodate the new life Riddick was so certain of. You watched him move now, not with the frantic energy of a hunted man, but with the deliberate, terrifying focus of a king preparing his domain.

He walked to the mouth of the cave, his bare back a map of scars and muscle in the twilight glow. He stood there for a long moment, scenting the wind, his ears twitching at the distant cry of a mountain flyer.

"Riddick," you called out softly.

He didn't turn, but his shoulders relaxed just a fraction. "The wind is turning cold. The storms on this rock don't just bring rain; they bring ice that can shear the skin off a man's bones."

He finally turned, his silver eyes locking onto yours. "You aren't leaving this cave for the next three cycles. I don't care how restless you get."

Riddick’s POV

He could see the change in the way you sat, the way you held yourself. You were already protecting your center, your hands resting instinctively over your womb. It stirred something in him that was deeper than the Alpha, deeper than the convict. It was the Furian in him—the part of him that remembered a world that was lost, a people who were gone.

He wasn't going to let this world take what was his. Not the storms, not the monsters, and certainly not the people who had put him in chains.

"I’m going down to the lower basins," he rumbled, crossing the floor to grab his heavy bone-handled blades. "The spiked-hides are migrating. Their pelts are hollow-fiber; they hold heat better than anything else on this moon. I’m bringing back enough to floor the whole back chamber."

He knelt beside you, his large hand moving to the back of your neck, his fingers tangling in your hair. He pulled you forward until your noses touched. "You stay by the fire. You keep the scent of this place strong. You hear anything that doesn't sound like me..." He trailed off, his eyes flashing.

"I know, Riddick," you whispered. "The shiv is under the furs."

"Good girl."

Third Person POV

He left as the first sliver of the blue moon hit the valley floor. You watched his silhouette disappear into the luminescent ferns, a ghost in his own kingdom.

Hours passed. You spent them working the stone, smoothing out the jagged edges of the inner chamber where the "nursery" would be. You found yourself humming a low, wordless tune—a song you didn't know you knew. It was a call, a biological signal of safety and belonging.

When the suns finally began their distant, filtered rise, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the tunnel. Riddick returned, hauling three massive pelts, his chest splattered with the dark, thick blood of the hunt. He looked exhausted, but as soon as his eyes landed on you, the weariness vanished.

He dropped the pelts and walked straight to you, his hands—still stained and cold from the mountain air—cupping your face. He inhaled deeply, his nose pressed against your temple.

"Still there," he hissed, a sound of pure, unadulterated triumph. "I can smell them. The pack is growing."

He didn't wait for you to speak. He pulled you down onto the newly brought furs, the scent of the wild and the musk of the Alpha surrounding you. He began to mark you again, not with teeth this time, but with slow, possessive strokes of his hands, mapping out the future he was building in the ruins of the galaxy.

"Let 'em come," he whispered into the hollow of your throat as the first ice of the storm began to rattle against the cave entrance. "Let the whole world come looking. They won't find a woman and a convict. They'll find a nightmare waiting to protect its own."

The ice storm arrived with a screeching fury, rattling the heavy obsidian slabs Riddick had hauled to the mouth of the cave to act as a windbreak. Outside, the world was a jagged wasteland of frozen light, but inside, the air was thick with the scent of woodsmoke, curing meat, and the heavy, musky pheromones of a satisfied Alpha.

Reader’s POV

You sat on the elevated stone platform, tucked deep into the hollow-fiber pelts. They were incredibly soft, trapping your body heat until you felt like you were floating in a warm cloud. Your stomach felt tight, a strange, buzzing pressure that wasn't painful, but persistent.

You watched Riddick. He was stripped to the waist, the firelight dancing over the ridges of his spine as he worked a heavy needle through a piece of thick hide. He was making a wrap—something to carry a heavy load close to the chest.

"You're staring," he rumbled without looking up.

"Just wondering how a man who hates everyone became so good at nesting," you teased softly, though your voice lacked any real bite.

Riddick paused, his silver eyes catching the amber glow of the embers. "Hate is a high-energy emotion. I don't hate 'em. I just don't want 'em in my space. And this?" He gestured to the cave, then to you. "This is the only space that matters."

Riddick’s POV

The needle pierced the hide with a satisfying thwack. He was building. Not just a carrier, but a perimeter. Every stitch was a reinforcement.

He could hear the storm outside, the ice shards pinging against the rock like small-arms fire. But inside, he was focused on the sound of your blood. It was changing—getting richer, slower. His Alpha brain was cataloging every shift. He knew exactly where the new heartbeats would eventually form. He could practically see the ghosts of them already, small and fierce, pacing the shadows of this cave.

His jaw tightened. He’d been a soldier, a prisoner, and a predator. He’d never been a father. The word felt heavy, like a new kind of armor.

He set the hide aside and crawled onto the furs toward you. He didn't ask; he simply moved your hands and pressed his ear to your abdomen, his rough, scarred cheek resting against your skin.

Third Person POV

The silence in the cave was absolute, save for the howling wind beyond the rocks. Riddick stayed there for a long time, his eyes closed, listening to the internal symphony of your body.

"They're quiet," he whispered, his voice so low it was almost a growl. "For now."

"They're waiting," you replied, your fingers tracing the silver-white scars on his shoulders. "Just like their father."

Riddick huffed a short, dry laugh. He shifted, pulling you down into the furs so you were tucked securely beneath his massive frame. He draped a heavy pelt over both of you, creating a dark, private world.

"The Company, the Mercs... they think they know what 'dangerous' looks like," he murmured into your ear, his teeth grazing the scent gland he’d marked weeks ago. "They think a man with a blade is a threat. They haven't seen a man with a pack."

He kissed the curve of your shoulder, his hands coming around to cradle your stomach, his fingers interlacing. It was a position of total possession and total protection.

"Sleep," he commanded. "The storm's gonna last for days. We aren't going anywhere."

As you drifted off to sleep, lulled by the heat of his body and the steady rhythm of his heart, you realized that the pitch-black world you had feared was now the only place you ever wanted to be. You weren't lost in the dark anymore. You were the heart of it.

The Ghost of the Sigma System

Six cycles had passed since the ice storm had tried to scour the life from the moon. The valley below the cliffs was no longer just a hunting ground; it was a training floor.

Reader’s POV

The air was crisp, carrying the scent of blooming night-ferns and woodsmoke. You stood at the mouth of the "fortress," your hand resting on the smooth obsidian archway Riddick had spent months polishing.

You weren't the same person who had crashed on M6-117. Your body was stronger, your instincts sharpened to a needle-point. But more than that, your heart was full. You looked down at the two small figures wrestling in the luminescent ferns below.

They were barely four cycles old, but they moved with a lethal, silent efficiency that made your chest swell with a terrifying pride. Their skin was tanned, their hair dark, and when they turned to look up at the cave, their eyes caught the blue moonlight—flashing silver.

"Eyes up, little shadows," you called out, your voice carrying across the valley.

Riddick’s POV

He was perched on a jagged ridge a hundred feet above the children, a shadow among shadows. He wasn't watching them with the eyes of a father; he was watching them with the eyes of a master.

He saw the way the boy shifted his weight before pouncing, the way the girl used the tall ferns to mask her scent. They were Furian in spirit, born of an Omega’s heart and an Alpha’s rage. They didn't just inhabit the dark; they owned it.

He dropped from the ridge, landing silently behind them. They spun instantly, small bone-knives drawn, their snarls identical to his.

"Slow," Riddick rumbled, though a gleam of satisfaction shone in his eyes. "The wind was at your back. A Merc would have smelled you a mile off."

"Then we’ll kill the Merc before he gets that close," the girl hissed, her silver eyes burning.

Riddick’s mouth quirked into a genuine smirk. He reached out, ruffling her hair with a heavy hand. "Yeah. You will."

Third Person POV

Riddick led the small pack back up the cliffside as the three suns began their distant, filtered rise. When they reached the cave, you were waiting with a meal of roasted meat and mountain tubers.

The children scrambled inside, their laughter echoing against the stone walls—a sound that shouldn't have existed in a place this cold, yet here it was. It was the sound of a legacy starting in the ruins of the galaxy.

Riddick stayed at the entrance for a moment, looking back out at the horizon. The universe was still out there—violent, hungry, and searching for the man who had escaped their cages. But they would never find this moon. And even if they did, they wouldn't find a convict.

He turned back to the warmth of the cave, his eyes softening as they landed on you. He walked over, his arm sliding around your waist, pulling you into his side. He pressed a kiss to your temple, his scent—now permanently intertwined with yours—filling your senses.

"You happy, little Omega?" he asked, his voice a low, rough vibration.

You looked at your children, then up at the man who had turned the darkness into a home. You leaned your head against his shoulder, closing your eyes.

"I'm not hiding anymore, Riddick," you whispered. "I'm exactly where I belong."

Word: Sensitive 

Pairings: dom!Riddick x brat!Reader 

Warnings: None, really. Riddick is kind of a dom/brat tamer in this (but he is in the films lol). Mentions of brat punishment. Teasing/taunting. Restraints. Idk when this takes place canon-wise, but it’s at least post-Pitch Black! No betas. (Yes, this is all because he says “good girl” in the first film asdfghjkl;) 

Summary: Your early morning with Riddick descends from cute into chaotic when you decide to act like a brat. 

Word Count: 1121

The blackout curtains were tied closed over the window, not letting a single ray of light come into the room. It was early morning, you could just tell, but it was still pitch black in the bedroom of the small apartment. 

You used to love waking up in the warmth of the sun, the rays shining like golden shards over the horizon, but ever since you met Riddick, you understood that what you took for granted was something he could never fully experience. At least, not comfortably. His eyes were far too sensitive to the light, and if he couldn't be shrouded in the shadows then he was wearing his goggles. It didn't seem fair that he'd have to wear goggles in the apartment you shared, so you sacrificed your early-morning sunlight so he could lie in bed without fear of being blinded.

NOT MY GIF! NOT MY CHARACTER!

Warnings: juicy smut, no use of yn, not mentioned so you can choose to ignore this but they are married

No part two

you fumbled with the lock as you rushed inside your apartment. The lock wasn't a hard one, the thing that made it difficult was the man at your neck leaving a hot trail along your shoulder.

You almost dropped the key in your haste, but quickly fitted it in the lock when teeth sunk into your neck.

Turning the key you both stumbled inside slamming the door behind you as he pressed you up against the wood.

his hands traveled up your sides under your shirt, the left cupping your breast the other unfastened your bra.

As soon as he unfastened it he pulled your top off dragging your bra after.

The cool air caught you off guard but his bare chest quickly replaced the air as he picked you up by your waist.

He continued sucking and biting as he pulled off your trousers and panties. His following after.

Soon you were both lying on your bed groping and kissing as you ground against his erection.

The darkness of the room was the only thing hiding you, although his goggles had long since been discarded and his silver eyes glimmered in the faint stream of light from the window.

He lined his shaft up with your entrance and slowly pushed inside, both of you moaning.

Soon he was balls deep in you, and he started moving the feral desire restricting him from coherent thought.

Wet sounds filled the room as he pumped into you.

His hands gripping your waist like a vise he took your left nipple into his mouth rolling it between his teeth, making you moan and gasp.

"look so beautiful like this," he murmured and you barely heard him. Glancing down at him in the dark the only thing you could see was his eyes luminescent against the black.

"wanna see you too!" You mumbled breathlessly.

Although you instantly regretted it when he froze pulling out of you making you whine in protest.

Then he was gone, you could hear his distant footsteps from the hall.

Then nothing, suddenly the lights flicked on and there he stood in the doorway with his goggles pulled back over his eyes, his cock still erect and dribbling precum.

"fuuuu-" you moaned warmth gathering in your belly as he slowly walked back over to you. Slotting himself between your legs.

"this better?" He asked biting your thigh as he pushed your legs up against your chest.

You nodded furiously as he slid his cock back into your cunt, your gummy walks squeezing around him. Both of you crying out in pleasure.

"what can't talk? I mean I knew I was good," riddick chuckles licking a stripe along your jaw, making you whimper.

You feel a familiar tightening in your abdomen as riddick continues to pound you into the mattress.

He presses your legs tighter against your chest and his cock grazes your g-spot making you moan and claw at his back.

"fuck," he moaned as you tightened around him. "So close doll."

You tried to tell him you were close but a particularly hard thrust sent you over the edge moaning and shaking as he fucked you.

Hot liquid met your finger tips as you dug at his back. Arching up off the mattress you clung to him as he came filling you with his hot seed.

"fuck doll," he grit his teeth and kissed up you neck but you stopped him.

"shit," you swore desperately pressing against the claw marks as they oozed blood. "Sorry."

"don't be it was hot," he smirked and stood making sure your legs were wrapped tightly around his waist before he turned the lights off removed his goggles and turned on the shower.

This is part 9 of Snow In The Dark. I hope you like it :)

Fic Summary: Snow has never known who she was. Being raised in the streets made her strong but lonely. That changed when she met Jack them becoming as close as sisters. She thought she found her family. That all changes when she crashes on a planet with only one rule. Stay in the light.

Part Summary: Snow learns who her true friends are.

Riddick x OC Snow

Warnings: Language. Mention of deaths.

Ya'll have my man wandering the galaxy fucking lames wondering, "is anybody gonna match my freak".

YOU CAN PICK: (A) Whether you think of Riddick as simply being a criminal or (B) You think that Riddick is a person who has more to him than meets the eye

"What? Click your fingers and he's one of us now?"

You were right smack in the middle of the small train of humans who had survived the Hunter-Gratzner crash, following behind Shazza and Johns, close enough that you could hear the irritation in the free-settler's question.

"I didn't say that." You could almost hear the smile in John's reply. "But at least this way I don't have to worry about y'all, uh, falling asleep and not waking up."

Jack pushed past you, angling himself to face the two adults leading all of them. The teenager had somehow found a pair of partially-broken goggles and worn them in emulation of the famed murderer trailing behind all of them. "So, can I talk to him now?"

"No."

Fandom: The Chronicles of Riddick

Collection/Series: My Liability, My Deadweight

Pairing: Richard B Riddick x Female Fat + Glasses Wearing Reader

Writer: @writings-of-a-hufflepuff aka @hufflepuffing-all-day-long

Rating: T (Swearing, Riddick is Riddick, violence)

Warnings: Swearing, violence towards deadly alien creatures, violence from deadly alien creatures towards the reader

Summary: None of this was supposed to happen. You were supposed to be on a holiday resort planet, relaxing by glistening waters and forgetting your troubles. Not traipsing through a deadly jungle on an uncharted planet with a just as deadly companion who seems torn between helping you and hating you.

Notes: So I guess this is going to be similar to Western AU Din in that i’ll probably write some stuff in the same sort of world/vein as this. I’m just interested in the idea of Riddick with a reader who is the opposite of a survivalist, who isn’t fit or strong, who is scared. The idea of Furyans having mates or soulmates that they don’t really get to choose and the idea of Riddick having to come to terms with the idea that the person he wants to protect so bad needs his protection more than most is interesting to me.

This is probably such a niche thing to write, not only because the fandom is tiny, but also because people tend to write Riddick fanfic where the reader or OC is extremely capable, but I wanted to write it. So self-indulgent fic coming up.
