And Nightmares
"Do you regret it?"
"Do I regret what?"
"Having me pulled from you. Do you regret it?"
There was a pause. "I...well..."
"I thought so. Even now you are easy to read."
Luna sighed, sinking down into her bed. The crisp night air was drifting in through her balcony, the pale light of her moon gracing the room. She turned her head to face the huge, glowing orb with a blank stare.
Beneath it, in the white light it offered, Nightmare Moon sulked on the balcony. Her head hung low, her ears flattened and eyes drooped. Around her sides, a velvet belt emitted a dim violet light, clasping her wings down to her body. Atop her horn sat a cloth, crafted of artisan silk. It's threads too let off this soft violet glow as they bound themselves into her horn. Her entire body seemed lifeless and cold; not even her starry mane or misty tail flowed in the breeze. They, as her, were slumped and still.
"You wished me gone, not separated. And I would rather it, too, instead of being chained as some...pet..." She gently tried to unfurl her wings to no avail.
"Tis a lie," Luna said, shifting in her silken sheets.
"We spent over one-thousand years together, Luna. I know when you lie and when you don't." Nightmare Moon sighed, turning in from the cool night air. Head down, the thin mare strode across the carpeted room, tail sagging all the way. When she reached Luna's large blue semi-circle bed, she came to a slow halt. "You really grew on me in those thousand years."
"It was thou who grew on me," Luna said as she rolled away.
"I only wanted to help," she said. She raised her head, displaying a scowl towards the inattentive Luna. "That was what you wanted, right? Help?"
"You did not help me!" Luna shot up through the air, a snarl across her face. She hovered above her ruined bed for a moment, her harsh look beating down upon the newest alicorn. "You made me a monster!"
"I helped you! I cared for you! Who was there when no one else appreciated you? Who was there for you when you cried on the moon? Who promised...who promised that you would never be hurt again? Me." She stood tall, grimacing back at Luna.
The princess closed her eyes and, with a loud huff, fell back atop her bed. She relaxed in, snuggling down into the soft mattress. Without words, she yanked her sheets back up, facing away from Nightmare Moon.
"All I ever wanted to do was help," the sweet, somber voice said from behind her. After a small moment of silence, with nothing more than the hum or the wind singing its tune, she continued, "So I suppose I'm sleeping on the floor again, hmm?"
"I suppose you are," Luna said, jerking the ends of her sheets from her skewed reflection.
The black mare sighed, leaning close. "I've expressed my apologies multiple times. Can I at least sleep on the bed?"
Luna rolled over, giving an evil glare. "Fine," she said, "But thou stays on that side of the bed, and shall have none of my sheets."
"I suppose that's fair," Nightmare Moon sighed. As she climbed into the plump bed, her body blending perfectly with the thick darkness, she watched as Luna pulled all of her sheets away. Even still, Nightmare Moon managed to say, "Goodnight."
The princess snorted, saying not a thing. Now darkness and silence meshed, the cool air once welcome now a biting chill. Nightmare Moon curled into herself, a mute frown on her tired face. Time was hardly moving, yet she needed to adjust and fidget seconds later. After that, and for a good thirty minutes, her hoof could hardly stay still.
Luna seemed to not have this problem; the deep blue blob was gently snoring away, rising and sinking with each breath she drew. Aided by the pale light of the moon, Nightmare Moon observed the motions with weary eyes. She yawned every so often, yet her eyes stared opened and fixated.
It was little longer after this that she whispered into the night, "Enough is enough." Carefully, she unfurled from her little ball, and crawled across the bed to Luna. Gazing down upon the mare's head as it lay comfortably on its little silver pillow, Nightmare Moon gulped. She slowly placed a foreleg on the opposite side of the dozing princess, lip bitten harsh and unforgiving. Then, she brought her hind leg over, lightly setting it down on a lump of sheets. She was now directly over her former emodiment, silent as a whisper in the night.
It was a slow process, but she eventually successfully pressed her warm body against the sheet-covered Luna. Her head was just beneath the slumbering mare's chin, her ears picking up each soft breath taken. She drew her lips back, pressing her exposed teeth up to the princess's warm neck.
And she began nipping.
Barely, of course; her strong jaw nibbled away with only the force of a light scratch. She continued her soft nipping, up and down Luna's throat. Her forelegs pressed up against Luna's sides, slowly rubbing her, caressing her. Though she still slept, the alicorn let loose a quiet moan. The sound filled the silent air; fuel for Nightmare's advance.
"Hngh...mmm...Wha...What? What are thou doing?" Luna cried, her eyes snapping wide. She pressed her hooves the advancing mare's chest, ready to heave. Yet her forelegs relaxed, falling down to her sides as face changed from anger to confusion. "What are thou doing?"
Nightmare Moon had not ceased her motions, nibbling away at Luna's neck relentlessly. Now she was slipping her tongue between her teeth, tasting the sweet mare, eliciting but a light moan. "I have apologized countless times," she said, breaking from her nibbles to nuzzle Luna's chin. "But perhaps...perhaps it is not enough. I'd like nothing more than to truly make it up to you."
She drew back, leaning in to give Luna a small peck on the cheek. The princess flushed a deep crimson, eyes widened again. "I do not understand..." she said, squirming beneath her sheets.
"I want to show you," Nightmare Moon said, giving a playful lick to Luna's ear. Then, she flicked the bundle of sheets and asked, "May I come in?"
With a wary eye, Luna gave the sheets a little tug with her magic. Nightmare Moon smiled and nodded in acknowledgement, heaving herself slightly off the bed. The sheets slid from beneath her, exposing Luna's warm, luscious body. Nightmare gently pressed herself down atop the princess, and the sheets draped over them again. Now, her forelegs tucked beneath Luna's, and her hind legs sprawled, she could feel heat flooding her dark cheeks.
"If thou tries anything..."
"You have my promise," she said, deeply nuzzling her face into Luna's neck. Taking a hoof from beneath, Nightmare traced the blue alicorn's side down to her flank, where she gently rubbed the length of the crescent moon cutie mark.
Luna let slip a small, drawled groan as she wrapped her forelegs around the mare atop her. The larger alicorn pulled her head back, looking down into Luna's eyes. The two shared a glance in the silence, neither smiling, yet neither frowning.
Nightmare Moon took her hoof from Luna's flank, dragging it up and around. It slid near her warm, dripping haunches. She held it just above the source of great heat, swirling her hoof around in a massaging circle, matting down her steamy fur. A sharp gasp slipped from Luna as she turned away, her cheeks visibly reddening in the dark night.
The tender heat caused Nightmare to quiver. Her nethers begged for release, burning from want and desire. Tired of ignoring them, she retracted her hoof, returning it to Luna's sides. Her eyes were still locked the princess's own deep cyan irises. Her lips fumbled her words, and all Nightmare could resolve herself to do was smile.
"Are you ready?" she asked finally, her whole body trembling. Lune nodded quietly, still a wary eye glued to the black alicorn's actions. Nightmare Moon smiled, taking a deep breath, before gently lowering her nether lips to meet Luna's own. And just as the two hot, wet mare's connected, she jerked her head down, locking her lips to her love's, the tender flesh meeting in an embrace of love and lust as deep as the night sky.
In unison, they released soft, muted moans, their sexes brushing against each other. The kiss still locked them, but Nightmare Moon had still begun a grinding motion. The princess's eyes clenched shut as their steaming haunches pressed together.
A new rhythm of rocking formed as Nightmare pulsed up and down atop Luna. Pleasure riveted through her spin as their sexes meshed and soaked, trading fluids and matting their fur. A thick thatch of wetness stained Luna's rump as their combined juices trickled down to the sheets.
Nightmare's speed increased, the whole situation in her control. As their wanting, soaked nethers scraped against the other's, the alicorn broke the wet kiss. She craned her neck up, slipping Luna's horn deep into her moist throat, tenderly suckling on it. Her tongue swirled around the sensitive extension as she moaned a deep, passionate note. She milked the horn for its worth, sucking tiny sparks of magic from the tip, their taste sweet and savory. Her grinding hastened, their combined moans growing louder.
Nightmare Moon sucked harder, bobbing up and down in sync with her grinding sex. Heat washed over every region of her body, her muscles tensing and relaxing sporadically. Underneath her, Luna was twitching and moaning loudly, her breathing long and shallow. Her coat was thick with sweat and juices now, her nethers in particular stained and warm.
Retracting from Luna's horn, a bridge of saliva connecting her tongue to it still, Nightmare sucked deeply in, air filling her lungs to a bursting point. She was panting now, her throat dry and parched. Her partner panted too, her blue mane frizzed, and her tail drenched.
"D-Do you know why I promised all those things?" Nightmare Moon asked with a strained, crimson red face.
"W-Why?" Luna gasped, her eyes squeezed shut. Her grip on her lover tightened.
The heat was at a bursting point. All Nightmare could force out between gasps was a heavy, "Because I love you." Then their lips pressed together again, her tongue dancing and twirling with Luna's.
Both were elevated to a glorious, mind numbing climax, tearing their embrace apart as their heads were thrown back. Their eyes latched shut, just as their muscles tightened to their full power. Their sexes finally swapped their expulsing juices, drenching the sheets in an endorphin laced spray of liquid ecstasy.
Nightmare Moon collapsed, her muscles finally giving way. Both she and Luna took heavy breaths in unison, one atop the other, still embraced in a warm hug.
The night was silent again, the moon offering only its shallow glow. The darkness was coming, coming for them. Coming to take them away to a deep slumber in each other's hooves.
Yet just before she gave into the cool touch of sleep, Nightmare Moon forced out with a heavy pant, "Do you regret it?"
The last thing she, or either of them remembered, was Luna saying in her waning voice, "No. Not at all."
