The years have passed well for Twilight and Cadence: the Crystal Empire is prosperous, their ponies are happy, and their love is strong. All is well, until Twilight makes a discovery that threatens to destroy the life they've built together.
In Equestria, Princess Celestia struggles with feelings she thought conquered long ago as she is torn between anger at the past, guilt in the present, and hope for the future.

Chapters (10)
@ArguingPizza...
Just a friendly point-out...
1. This fan-fiction should probably have the Alternate Universe tag if it is Princess Cadance married to Princess Twilight, and that the former had an affair with Shining Armor.
2. It is also unclear with Character Tags and within the story. Are you using unicorn Twilight Sparkle or alicorn Princess Twilight? Because you use Twilight Sparkle for Character Tags, but within the story you appear to be using Princess Twilight.

5381823 I thought it was funny.
Cadence, the oath breaker...
Well then! Nice to see that you're finally posting this as it's own story. I enjoyed reading the collab chapters, and I bet I'll enjoy reading it again here.
Cadence, you messed up. You messed up BAD.
I lIke where this is going! Keep it up

5389263 if only someone had warned her to be careful with her words! oh..wait Luna said quietly, “but she is much more to Celestia. You would do well to mind your words.”
Draaaaaaamaaaaaaaa.
I love it.
Well, that escalated even quicker than the first chapter!
This part feels like a nice break in tension.
Oh this is goooooood.
Keep it up my friend, it's not often a story captures my attention so throughly
I love Celestia's story. I absolutely love it.

If I can ask, but what did Cadence do? I don't know if I'm blind to see it or it will be revealed soon

That depends, are you old enough to know what a condom is for?
Looooooovvveeee it! Keep it up, I like where this is going!
I'm glad it's being posted as its own story, it's certainly a lot easier to follow.
How could you end it there! I wanna know wat happened!
Good story though
yookreview.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/cliffhanger.jpg
gad damn you and your fucking cliff hanger endings!
I'm conflicted. I want to see Twilight end up with Celestia but at the same time I want to see Cadance and Twilight find a way to get passed this hurdle in their marriage. I also wanna see Shinning Armor get ripped a new one.
5404758
...Why? It is not that I do not want to see Twilight and Cadence get back together, but why do you want to see Cadence find redemption yet Shinning Armor be punished when they both committed the same offense?
5404901 I'm not saying that Cadance's actions should go unpunished. I'm just saying that so far we have yet to see how Shinning Armor reacts/feels about getting caught sleeping with his sisters wife. I mean what is he like in this fic? Is he gonna be the same as he was in canon and feel remorseful and guilty, or is he going to be OOC and act like an ass and feel like Twilight robbed him of what he feels is his?

I've mostly been curious as to what's been going on with Shining Armor. Not to mention Twilight and Shining's parents. Once word gets to them, how do you think they'll react to all of this? All things considered...this is low. Like, really low, both on Shining and Cadance's part. It'd be one thing if Cadance cheated on Twilight with a stranger, that's awful as-is, but...Twilight's brother? Her BBBFF? Oh-ho wow that's a whole new level of fucked-up and depraved!

I've mentioned this before, but I don't believe on this posting: Shining Armor will be addressed, but not in this fic. His side will be presented in a short, follow-up story later on that has yet to be written.
Since before the wedding? Wow...
Obviously the empty feeling she had until she was with Shining Armour was this universe trying to correct the balance of things and have
myits OTP from the show.I would like to see Shining Armour in this. I think it's gonna end up Twilestia and Shinedance.
The feelz...

5408043 Also why is the guy in the gif so happy? Did I miss something or is he just an asshole?
5407859 You really think it would end Twilestia? Not that I don't want it to, it's just the fic is called 'Second Chances'.
It was how many ponies Cadence used to cheat on Twilight that shocked me.
this is where Cadance goes back to the crystal empire, recalls all crystal empire ambassadors from equestrian, has her generals close their borders to equestrian, and allies her kingdom with the changelings, promising them all their love in return for conquering equestria

There's more than one potential second chance, here. In particular, look at the end of Implications. Perhaps it's a second chance for Celestia?
5408519
Heyoh for showing what would happen if politics were part of it
5408706 True but with such a vague title name and all the different roots this fic could go in, I'll be staying open minded until the fic actually ends. I really like Twilestia it's one of my favorite ships. With that being said I have read a few Twidance fics recently and I have to admit the ship as really grown on me. Especially after reading 'My Princess Alluring'. Check it out if you have the time. I highly recommend it if you want a good Twidance story.

Nah I'm pretty sure that empty feeling is just her not having anything stuffed up her twat.
Twilestia for the win!
5408149 Imagine that guy's reaction is my reaction to Cadance getting the boot. 'nuff said.
This was a nice chapter. I like it.
5408043 Dear God, that smile is terrifying...
you give us an ending like that, and then not guarantee a sequel? how dare you!

nah, i'm just fuckin' with ya. but seriously, we need a sequel.
