It was only after a few minutes after Discord left did I wake up. My eyes slowly opened, revealing a white ceiling.
Am I in a hospital ?
"He's awake, Sister."
My head turned to my right side revealing a frowning mare, staring at me .
She looked familiar.....
"Sweeping Star ? "
"Yes ?" The smiling mare said from my left.
uh. They looked similar. So they sisters.
Sweeping Star probably noticed my confusion. " This is my sister, Aisha Al Saif."
That did not help clearing my confusion. Her clothes were middle eastern as well as her name. Were they step sisters ?
Sweeping Star poked my head.
" Hey ! That hurts !" I grumbled as I rubbed my head.
"Don't overthink. My father remarried."
Ok, that makes sense.
*Bonk !*
" Ouch ! "
Sweeping Star giggled. "Sorry. Your head is very bonkable. Especially since I don't know your name."
"Silver." I said as I blocked my head. "Don't bonk my head-"
I groaned. My body began to ache.
"Stop moving ! " Sweeping Star said as she pulled the blanket revealing my bandaged torso. rubbing her hoof on my chest.
I shivered as I remembered what happened.
Sweeping Star gave me a look of worry. " Please give the princess a second chance. She lost her entire legion in an ambush."
After a pause.
"Okay."
I did not mean it. But I said it nevertheless. Luna is dangerous.
Oblivious to my morbid thoughts, Sweeping Star gave a wide smile. "Thank you Silver ! Her majesty won't let you down !"
I nodded glumly as my head fell back on the pillow.
"Get some sleep Silver. I need to begin my duties as a maid. This is my room you've been recovering in. You owe me one !"
She hummed a small tune as she left the room.
I found myself sitting on a chair stood by Princess Luna as she ate her meal in the royal dinning hall. Her mother, Princess Galaxia, was eating opposite us. Luna was getting impatient. Princess Celestia did not arrive yet and Luna only got a surprise reaction from her mother and a nod for me, partly because I was actually nodding off.
"I hope she is treating you well." Her mother said to me. I was about to speak before I realised what happens when I speak. That feeling... I could not explain this but it could probably be my slave status. I can feel what Luna wants me to do and right now I feel like she will torture me until end the of time if I say anything that will displease her mother.
I nodded with a small smile. Princess Galaxia narrowed her eyes as she searched for the truth on my face but she bought it, I think.
I let out a sigh of relief.
"Mother, where is Celly ?"
"There was a skirmish on near our northern border, so I sent her with a unit to deal with it."
"Awwww, why could I not go ?"
Princess Galaxia chuckled. "You and I know what you would have done."
Luna puffed her cheeks. "There is nothing wrong sending asteroids as a form attack."
" The last time I sent you, you almost started the next mass extinction."
"Fair point."
They both laughed as I stood there, the only pony who could not believe how they not taking anything seriously on what she just implied. Is it because of the insane amount of power they have ? Will I become like that ?
"Pet ?" I seriously hate the the name she gave me.
I looked at her with my gaze lower than her muzzle, indicating I heard her.
"Go to my chambers and get the report from my study desk."
I nodded my head as I left. Going through the long corridors for some time I realised I was lost. Goddammit. The rich and their complicated corridors. In desperation I began picking up my pace. My mind was only thinking what Luna is going to do to me if I do not get that report. In that state of mind I was not looking were I was going and I ended up bumping into somepony. I scrambled back up as I apologised.
"S-S-S-S-Sorry !"
"I think I should be saying sorry."
My heart skipped a beat.
She had a sword by her side, her eyes twinkling and the smile she wore, illuminated something within me. "Where are you off to ?"
I blushed as I looked at her. She was probably a guard. "I am having trouble finding Princess Luna's chambers."
She looked surprised. "Why ?" Fair enough. Can't trust any pony you bump into.
"The princess wanted something from her room."
"Oh." She was in deep thought. "Leave the report."
"But I hav-" Wait a minute. I never mention any report to her. I backed away.
She seemed amused at my reaction. "You do not need to be scared, I do not bite. Come, let's go and see my mother and sister."
I looked like an idiot when she said that. On her head was a tiara and she wore gold regalia...
"P-P-P-Princess C-Celestia ?"
At first, Princess Luna was planning to use me to surprise and get back at Princess Celestia but instead the opposite happened . For the whole duration of dinner I did not realise, I was staring at Princess Celestia, the whole time. Unfortunately Princess Luna took notice and at the end, Celestia sealed her victory.
"Silver ?" Luna and Galaxia looked up. I cursed myself. Back in the corridor Celestia asked for my name. Instead of saying the name Luna gave me, I said the name that I decide to give myself when I came here. I mean imagine telling an extremely pretty mare that you name was pet ?
"Y-Yes Princess ?" Luna, it seemed, is allowing me to speak freely for the duration of the dinner.
"Have you eaten ?"
"N-N-No."
"Here." Her horn was covered in a golden aura as it placed a chair and a plate of food, a bowl of salad, by her. Before I could do anything I was lifted in the air by her magic and placed next to her. Her hoof grazed my foreleg.
"Hope you enjoy." She said with a kind smile. My heart pounded in my chest as my cheeks grew warm.
"Thank you." I said, softly. My voice dripping with gratefulness. If only Princess Celestia was my owner. She is nothing like that monster she got for a sister.
Princess Luna suddenly woke up from her seat. "I am going to rise the moon now and then I am off to bed Mother, Celly." She then turned to me, her eyes gazing away from me. "Once you done eating, come to my chambers and will discuss were you will be sleeping." Her voice was icy, I could feel it.
And with that she left.
Princess Galaxia looked at Celestia confused. "I could have sworn she already brought the moon up some time ago."
"What could make her that upset" Celestia shifted in her seat. "Is it because I made Silver sit next to me ?"
That's when it hit me. Since Slaves are connected to their owners, they could read their thoughts whenever they felt like. And Princess Luna, decided to read my mind when I compared her to her sister.....
Oh I am so screwed. What is she going to do to me ?
