> A Bug in the Bedchamber > by Steel Quill > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > A Bug in the Bedchamber > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Formal Royal gatherings were a bane on every kingdom in Equestrian society. Shining Armor was sure of it. Now that wasn’t to say he couldn’t see them being enjoyable for some of the participants. All the glitz and glamour attracts the imagination of many an individual to the occasion, being surrounded by important and noble figures who represent the high class of society. In this case being in Canterlot as guests of the Royal Sisters, Shining and his wife Cadance were among the top of the invitation list. One of the perks of being married to a Princess and ruler of the Crystal Empire. In his younger years, he and the soldiers would make jokes about trying to sneak in and cause a ruckus not unlike the kind that his sister, Twilight Sparkle, and her friends had made before just to liven things up. Letting his gaze sweep over the floor, Shining wondered if Cadance had the right idea to be too busy to make the party. It was like trying to look at a prismatic smorgasbord of colors that wanted attention at every passing second, intermixed with haughty laughter, the clinking of wine glasses, the shimmer of jewelry. The orchestra playing from the back center of the room did make a nice atmosphere for the party, but it was dimmed by the sheer aura of smugness that passed from each little grouping of people trying to sell themselves as being worthy of being there the most. Shining could see them even trying to position themselves higher than the Solar and Lunar princesses themselves, just for the sake of posterity. “I’m almost envious of her diplomacy work. Geez.” Shining muttered. Thinking of her and his boredom made his imagination wander to thinking of better ways to spend their time away from the stuffy affair. It had been weeks since they last had a chance to be a husband and wife together, instead of their titles of Princess and Prince. He didn’t hold it against his wife, nor she to him, as both were dutiful in their pursuits. Cadance had even joked about letting him snatch up one of the maids or more flirty women here at the party if he couldn’t take the strain. She made that joke several times, he recalled. Shining’s brow furrowed as he sipped from his wine glass. With Cadance being the Princess of Love, there were some realms she did tend to have a more open mindset about than others. Sharing Love in all its forms was something she always proclaimed, be it familial love, non-platonic, love of hobbies and friends...and particularly encouraging the kind done behind locked doors. It was Cadance who had introduced the idea of an open marriage, something Shining had yet to act upon just yet. Cadance however, had been happy to demonstrate with a surprise guest on their anniversary night a few months back. One does not ignore the sight of a nude Fleur de Lis and the wife putting on a show for your viewing pleasure. Still, the rule for it was simple: ask first, enjoy later. And he had admitted to his wife that Fleur was a gorgeous woman. With a very firm, pronounced rear end... ‘Down boy.’ Shining told himself, feeling himself stir a little. It was too easy to get riled up lately, and he had an image to uphold in front of the public: the kind, steadfast Prince of the Crystal Empire who stayed calm, collected, and could weather any threat to himself, his family, or the kingdom with a steady hand and assured confidence. Nothing could break his will. “Well, well. So Shining Armor’s finally back from the North. Long time no see, Shiny.” ‘Oh Fudgenutters.’ Shining turned his head to witness a woman approach him that stood out among the crowd for more reasons than her beauty. Granted, her looks alone would be enough to make any male move out of their way to be in her good graces, and some females even too. Queen Chrysalis of the Changeling Kingdoms, in all her glory. She stood at almost the same height as him, earning an extra inch or two from the heels she was wearing. Her cerulean colored hair fell down her back in long strands, passing her shoulders to fall to her waist. It brought out the green emerald color of her dress as well as offset the paleness of her skin that the dress didn’t cover. The small, twisted black horn rose through her hair, a reminder of her heritage. Her harlequin colored eyes were playful, hungry, and delighted in seeing him. The delight brought out a curve to her lips, the tease of one of her fangs poking out over her full dark colored lips. Chrysalis’ figure made the dress itself look almost painted on her, coming to a stop at her thighs and letting her showcase plenty of her flawless complexion. Each step made her seem all the more lively in how her chest bounced and her hips swayed, every bit the genuine woman that many women present wanted to be like, but found only mimicry in plastic surgery. The front of the dress had a plunging neckline that exposed her cleavage enough to make you wonder how far your hand could disappear inside it. But she wasn’t all just softness; her arms were strong, a lining of muscle visible to Shining’s trained eyes as well as within her thick legs that carried her in confident steps. “Chrysalis. I didn’t expect to run into you here.” Shining finally said when she got close enough. Acting on instinct, he took her hand and kissed the knuckles of her fingers, the gesture making her give a humored, but soft laugh to him. “You look radiant. Stunning, even.” “It helps when you’re 100% natural and not at least 25% plastic, hm?” she replied, smirking to herself. “Speaking of natural, where’s Cadey? Did she leave you here to your lonesome?” Shining glanced around. To be fair, with everyone trying to be as decadent as possible, Cadance’s usual unique colored mane wouldn’t quite stand out so much as blend in. Blame the current fashion trends, he supposed. “For tonight, it’s just me. She had to tend to Princess duties. I’m surprised you brought no one with you. No Thorax or Pharanx this time?” “Oh, those two? I thought to bring them, but neither are much for crowded events like these. I’m afraid it’s just myself you’ll have to put up with.” Shining snorted at this, shaking his head. “We’ve been friends for years, Chrysalis. You’re not one to be ‘put up with’.” As it turned out, in the aftermath of the Changeling Coup attempt from several years ago, blasting someone with the concentrated magical force of Love leaves more effects than just being catapulted out of a city. When Chrysalis reappeared with another mass amount of her Changeling brood at the gates of the Crystal Empire just shortly after Sombra was defeated, many were expecting her to try and capitalize on the weakened rulers post-battle. Instead, to everyone’s shock, Chrysalis revealed she had come forward to declare her fealty to Cadance and the Empire. Seeing the proud Queen kneel before Cadance had nearly made him drop his weapons along with his jaw. It took time, but eventually, the Changelings became an accepted part of the Empire. Chrysalis had explained that the coup attempt was an idea she opposed in truth, but had been forced into by both desperation of the Changeling kingdoms and a severe lack of food for said kingdoms. Cadance was wary at first, particularly of a woman who had impersonated her and almost stolen her husband, but by a year’s passing, the two had actually become quite close. Cadance sympathized with the race’s need for the very emotion she was Princess of, and did her best to aid them. As a result, Changelings now commonly walked the streets of the Crystal Empire, considered common brethren to their crystal counterparts. “Always the gentleman, Shining. But since Cadey isn’t here to keep you company, I suppose I can be the courteous Queen I am and fulfill that.” She said, sidling up beside him and resting against the table he had been up against as well. Her shoulder brushed his as she turned her head to look at him. “I’m not exactly one for all these nobles and seeing how high up they can turn their noses. I’m glad you’re here. You can at least look me in the eyes.” Shining spared her a moment’s gaze before he glanced to her cheek, sheepish. That was the other aspect of her change over the years that made Shining a little nervous when around her. He wasn’t afraid of her doing harm to him by any means; rather, the nervousness was in just the sheer affection she seemed to radiate to him when they were alone. Not that Shining hadn’t acted well enough to earn it; several times when the Changelings had been harassed in court by nobles or outside influences, Shining had taken up in her defense, stalwart and protective of the Queen. He was still a man of honor, after all, and oathbound to protect any ally of Cadance or the Empire. But there were times he wondered if the affections from when she impersonated Cadance all those years ago were not a ruse, but genuine attraction. She always made room for him at her side when they would visit her kingdom, and gave him her full attention when he spoke. Even when Shining’s more civilian habits and hobbies came to light - still a passionate comic collector to this day! - Chrysalis only spoke positively. Combine such behaviors with her beauty, and there were times that Shining’s imagination could readily betray him. “Bit for your thoughts?” Chrysalis’ words snapped Shining back to the present, and he took a second to pause before laughing quietly. “Just thinking on old times. But you’re right; I’d rather have you here to spend time with than anyone looking to try and brown-nose for a spot on the city council.” He told her. “Really? And here I thought you enjoyed me for the eye candy, Shiny.” Shining’s eyes moved before his brain could process the consequence, a moment spent on the depths of Chrysalis’ pale cleavage before he willed them back up to her face. She’d caught him looking, going by the smile on her full-looking green lips, but didn’t seem bothered in the slightest. “There’s more to a woman than just her beauty, Chryssi. But...well. You definitely don’t lack in that department any, if you don’t mind me saying.” A tiny delighted chirp came from the Changeling Queen, a sound he recognized as genuine joy from their interactions in the past. It was cute, coming from such a usually intimidating woman. “From you, Shining? Never.” Chrysalis’ attention turned to the floor as the orchestra began playing a new piece, one with more energy and sound than the light music before. Shining took that chance to down the rest of his wine, hoping it would stifle anymore of his thoughts on the radiant woman beside him. “Ooh...c’mon, Shining. The Prince needs to show he can dance at least once, and if Cadey isn’t going to take it on, I most certainly will.” “What-hey!” Shining yelped as Chrysalis’ arm wove itself around his and brought him with her. He regained his posture, letting her guide him to the dance floor while still arm in arm. Chrysalis seemed to delight in the various looks the two got, while Shining couldn’t help but feel a touch shy. He wasn’t too much for dancing, but arguing the point seemed moot when Chrysalis got into the mood. “I’m going to warn you now, if I step on your toes, it’s 100% because I secretly was born with two left feet.” “Aren’t you military boys supposed to be all about thinking on your feet?” she replied, turning to face him and letting her right hand slide around to his shoulder, holding there while Shining instinctively moved his hands, one going to rest on her hip while the other wove its fingers with Chrysalis’ own. Her green-painted nails stood out against the white gloves he’d worn to the event, and the pair began a simple sway and circle motion together as the music carried on. Shining Armor did consider himself to be at least a somewhat decent military commander in most regards, keeping a sharp mind and steady focus when the situation called for it. But being woven into the web Chrysalis had spun for him made him feel a little challenged. He was trapped, but this time not by a threat of danger to himself or others. Instead, he was trapped because he couldn’t stop basking in Chrysalis’ appearance. He’d seen her face hundreds of times before this, in all sorts of manners. But up close, it let him better appreciate the confident stare watching back, the dark eyeshadow only drawing out the color of her eyes moreso. The almost cocky smile on her full, dark green lips was made more prominent by the peek of her fangs, sharp but not unappealing in the slightest. Shining’s cheeks colored as he tried to stop his ogling, lowering his gaze to her neck, where the cloth of her dress ran up and around to the back. “S-so tell me. Compared to other dance partners, I’m not too shabby, right?” He joked, wincing at how lame the words sounded leaving him. “Since most can hardly get past my chest and you’ve managed to find my face? I’d say you’re about 90% better.” Chrysalis told him, making his cheeks darken before he heard her snickering at him. He couldn’t help a snort from himself, the pair sharing in the laugh. It helped him relax a little before she continued. “Keep it up, and I’ll invite you to the castle for more lessons.” “Haven’t stepped on your toes yet, have I?” “No, you haven’t. But feel free to keep that grip on my hip. I like a man who enjoys his meat.” Only then did Shining realize his fingers had drifted, dangerously close to the realm of her rear end and not her hip. His gloves did keep him somewhat unaware of what lay under them, but even they couldn’t defy Chrysalis’ curves. He slid it back, and she gave a small hum before leading him to turn, moving them away from the center of the dance area and more to the side to allow other couples to continue. “You didn’t have to let go. I liked it there too.” “W-well...I didn’t want anyone getting wrong ideas.” He mumbled. “Paparazzi never give me or Cadance peace.” “Sometimes those wrong ideas can be so much fun though, Shining.” She seemed to purr, drawing his attention to her face again. Her lidded eyes kept him watching as she spoke, her tone warm and inviting to his mind. “At least a few are behind closed doors. Just close the window, the blinds, and the door, and no one’s any the wiser.” His imagination skittered suddenly, imagining her plush lips pressed elsewhere. How would they feel? The time of her being disguised as his then fiancee were long gone from mind and memory; the real her was an entirely different beast altogether. The hand holding hers gave a faint squeeze, which was returned only a moment after as the hand at her hip drifted again. Chrysalis’ smile widened, but she didn’t correct him. “Yes, well...not to mention privacy spells. Last time someone got too close to the wards, they wound up somewhere outside the city limits. I think we overdid them.” Shining replied. “But it’s nice to have some time to one’s self without interruptions.” “I couldn’t agree more.” Chrysalis said, and Shining’s eyes lifted up to see her horn glowing alight. “And since we’re both in agreement. Let’s leave the stuffiness here, shall we?” The two suddenly vanished out of sight, their disappearance causing a few onlookers to do a double take at the two gone royals. For Shining, it was but a moment’s pause before he found himself in one of the private rooms of Canterlot Castle, the familiar sight of the bedroom a momentary comfort as Chrysalis released him. Her laughter brought him back to the moment, and he then caught up with reality. “I can’t believe you just did that!” He declared, looking at her, half incredulous. Chrysalis was only more amused at his response before calming herself, flipping her hair back over her shoulder with a casual hand. “Oh, come now, Shining. How are we going to get to catch up and spend time together if it’s under the stares and noses of all those so called nobles?” Chrysalis asked. “And to be fair, it’s a lot easier to get you to talk openly instead of with everyone watching. I prefer it to be just us two.” “Well...it wasn’t exactly a fun party really. I guess you’re right.” Shining admitted before sighing. “I don’t know why we even host these things.” “Oh, Shiny, you know how it goes. We untouchables of the royal lines have to mix with the commoners so they can believe we’re less than the piles of wealth and political power they see us as.” Chrysalis told him, adopting a stuffy accent as she flicked a finger at the door, the green glow of magic brief before the lock clicked in place. “Then when the time comes to hand down royal edicts and laws, they feel more inclined to listen. It’s just the way of things.” “I’m not exactly walking around with a royal scepter, you know.” Shining joked, making Chrysalis smile as she walked back over to him. “I might be surrounded by royalty, but I’m born of common enough grounds.” “Still the one cleaning house after Pink Pizza Princess gets done?” Shining smiled, rolling his eyes. “She always insists she’ll do it. The last time I believed it, a few of the boxes had changed color. She even tried to hide one behind the curtains!” Chrysalis snorted, lifting a hand to her lips. “When you first told me of that, I thought it was a simple joke. But leave it to the Ex-Captain to be an expert maid as well.” “Y’know, three rounds of latrine duty in boot camp teaches plenty of lessons. Like appreciating a clean home.” Shining watched as Chrysalis nodded, continuing to watch him. “True, and look at how you turned out. Brother to an Element of Harmony. Married to a Princess of a kingdom. Captain of the Royal Guard turned Prince.” Chrysalis said. One of her hands came up and tapped his chin with her index finger. “You’re a walking fairy tale, Shiny. Though...I do believe I detect some buried emotions in there.” Shining’s pulse quickened from the contact, her finger cool against his skin. “Huh?” “Oh, Shining. I’m a Changeling, dear. Emotions are as clear to me as the sky above our heads. And you haven’t stopped enjoying looking at me all night.” Chrysalis explained. “Not that I dislike it. Your eyes are the eyes I want on me. And maybe that wandering hand, too.” Shining felt his blood turn cold and he stared up at her eyes. There was no righteous fury there, no promise of harm, which confused him a little. “I-I...I’m sorry. I must’ve had a little too much wine. I’m not exactly a social drinker and-” “It’s been weeks, hasn’t it?” “What?” Chrysalis’ smile grew. “Weeks since you and Cadance could stop being prim and proper rulers and just be two grown adults. It’s rolling off you, every time you look at me. Want. Lust. And it’s gnawing at you bad, Shiny.” One of the few traits Shining had picked up on Chrysalis over the years was how truthful a woman she was. Call her a trickster, a deceiver with a mastery of the Changeling disguise, but she never spoke a lie to him when it was them alone. He’d always pondered on it as some sort of amends she wanted to make for the past, to never deceive him again as a promise on her good will. At times, it was a comfort when he would go to her for advice on something he couldn’t solve on his own, or even with Cadance’s help. Cadance. His wife. “I knew this choice of dress was a bit flashy, but I didn’t expect you to take to it so well. But when you have the goods, it’s worth flaunting them.” Chrysalis said. “Which worked well since I see someone’s clearly enjoying seeing me.” “C-Chryssi, I’m...I didn’t mean to come off weird. It’s just...it’s been stressful, you know. All this work in running the kingdom. Keeping up with security. Cadance and I haven’t had time to stop being Mister and Misses Crystal Empire for more than the time we can sleep before we’re at it again. B-but we’re happy! I mean. I feel happy.” Shining insisted. “I’m not...I…” Chrysalis paused. Then she laughed, her hair shaking as she shook her head. “Oh, Shiny, honey. I know you’re a happy husband. Cadance goes on and on about you all the time.” “S-she does?” “Oh, please. It’s like the girl falls for you over and over again every other week. Princess of Love for sure.” Chrysalis told him. “A broken marriage isn’t what anyone here wants. Not me. Not you. Definitely not her.” “Then...why mention you sensing me feeling uh...pent up?” Chrysalis stepped closer, and Shining thought to move back. His legs didn’t cooperate, aiming instead to stay rooted where they were as she rested her palm against his cheek. It was oddly warm, her hand. “Because I want to help someone I see struggling. And in a way we both can enjoy.” Shining’s protests fell mute as he got to have his question about Chrysalis’ lips answered, their softness pressed against his off-guard own. It was not but a few seconds before she withdrew, hovering close to him, that Shining’s brain tried to snap back to life. Gods, were they soft. Warm. The taste of her lipstick on his tongue was like a spark in a pool of oil. He had to catch himself, balling a hand into a fist at his side but not one of violence, only of self-restraint. “C-chryssi.” “Shining...I know that you love Cadance dearly. I’m not here to try and ruin that. I adore you two.” She told him, a lover’s whisper on his ears as she continued, “But we Changelings read emotions so well, that I can see the burden on your shoulders. You’re a stalwart man, a leader. You expect to stay strong in the face of any challenge. But if you keep that for too long, it only causes you hurt. And I won’t stand for that to happen to the one who helped turn my life around. My kingdom, my people, owe their good fortune to you. The least I can do is to help...lessen the load a little.” There was no deceit in her eyes, no hidden plot. Shining’s mind clambered to stop the growing roar of lust pooling in him. It yearned for her, hungry to taste her again, to feel her with no restraints. His pants felt tight around his middle, moreso as Chrysalis turned around and pressed her back against him. Her hair tickled at his face and neck before she turned her head to whisper to him. “Besides...it’s not like you’re getting a bad deal here. I know I’m no alicorn, of course, but there’s an appeal in bedding a woman of my...splendor, don’t you think?” She teased, her hot breath making him shudder. It was an undeniable truth: Cadance was a beauty of sleek curves and grace, which was more than enough for Shining. But Chrysalis was no less inviting: her wide, voluptuous body was equally appealing to Shining’s lusts, a woman whose shape demanded to be touched, squeezed, worshipped. Her bare back left his chest before he felt her push her ass up against his crotch, the swells of her rear end framed by how tight the dress clung to her form. “You can try and be the faithful husband…” she said, looking over her shoulder to him, “...but I can feel how much you love this ass.” Gods, it was an amazing ass. She was bigger than Cadance, easily; Shining’s hands wavered at his sides, paralyzed in the moment between lust and duty. Here was an opportunity that most men would kill for to be offered, and he stood at it’s precipice like a man before heaven’s gates. But Cadance… “You really should share the love, Shiny. You can’t just give it all to me.” Chrysalis leaned back up, still pressed against him but now reaching with a hand to caress the back of his head, fingers slow and gentle. “You can let go with me, Shining. Give me all you want. And I’ll give you all you want in spades.” She whispered. And with a burst akin to mental gunpowder, Shining Armor’s instincts pushed past the steel wall of discipline and took the helm. The taste of her lips was upon his senses once more as he took hold of her around the middle, embracing her tight while letting himself become lost in the sensation of her again. Only now he was seeking it, his yearning for something, anything of physical desire directed at the lustful woman before him. Chrysalis returned the kiss with an eager sound, almost like the happy chirp he knew but somehow more yearning, her fingers tightening in his hair as she pressed back against him. The urge to breathe was satisfied by his nose, inhaling while his mouth was wholly occupied by hers. She was a mix of raspberry and peach, an unexpected combination given the dark color of her lips. But Shining found himself eager for more, kissing harder as his hands wandered. One of them ran across her front, hovering first just under her chest before lowering to press against her middle. Some would say that the only appealing woman was one with a thin stomach, but Shining begged to differ. There was a warmth, an appeal in a woman with a touch of meat to her. His fingers sunk in a little but only just to hold her. His other cupped her cheek, letting him feel her lean into his palm and turn her head for the kiss’ sake. She withdrew for but a moment, languid in the motion to savor the feeling of his lips on hers. Chrysalis’ eyes were brimming with desire directed at him, her pink tongue skimming her lips. “Mmm...you’re delicious. But that’s just the start.” She said before kissing him once more. He surrendered to it, and her searching tongue invading his unguarded mouth as she used her grip on him to guide him to the nearby bed. The tumble onto it left Shining on his back, Chrysalis atop him as her weight pressed against his middle and groin. He moaned into her lips from the sensation, his grip changing to explore further down her back before arriving at her rear. He stopped, only a moment’s pause from squeezing the bountiful rump. “Go for it. Take what you want. I’m an indulgent lover.” Chrysalis whispered, leaving his maw alone to dive for his neck, wet tongue licking and searching across his skin for sensitive spots to tease him with. Shining took the offered chance and clapped his hands onto her ass, fingers sinking into the flesh and finding a treasure under his digits. There was a plushness to her rear that let him squeeze and knead what he could get ahold of, but he didn’t have to go far to find the muscle that also lay beneath. Chrysalis gave a sigh into his neck, her lips attaching to his skin and kissing firmly before he felt her wet tongue toy at him again, the idea of her just wanting to taste him on her tongue making him pulse in his pants. He toyed with her rear a little more before finding the sensation briefly dissatisfying due to his gloves. He let go of her, and his horn sparked before his gloves were banished to the other side of the room and he could experience her without any barriers save the thin dress material she still wore. A small nip at his neck made Shining wince, but he didn’t let go of her as Chrysalis left a small mark from her love bite. He was sure the woman was doing it for her own amusement, but there was something in the idea of her placing that claim that brought a warm feeling to his heart. His fingers dug into her rear and squeezed again, hefting the flesh up before releasing it and savoring the way he could feel it bounce in his grasp. It was enough to make Chrysalis laugh from her spot, lifting her head up to gaze at her partner. “Never took you for being an ass man, Shiny.” She teased. “I think...I’m an everything man.” He mumbled back. The approving sound that came from her was followed by another kiss to his neck, Shining imagining an almost perfect green outline of her lips being left there before she withdrew and sat up in his lap. “I do love a man with a wide range of tastes. And you taste scrumptious, Shiny.” She purred as she rested a hand on his chest, her index finger toying with the medals his attire included with it. “But you deserve to taste more than just my lips. And you want more, don’t you?” He was sure she knew the answer already pressing against her leg, but only found the will to nod. Everything was still such a blur in the momentary rush of hormones and lust; should he stop? Should this continue? One look into Chrysalis’ inviting gaze put to rest such questions for now, while she grinned down at him. He looked on as she swiveled about on his lap, seating herself again on his groin but now with her back to him. Her wide rear pressed against him and stretched the dress’ material tight across itself. She looked back over her shoulder, eyes watching. “Be a dear, Shining; this dress is a little fussy to unzip for a woman like me.” She could’ve simply vanished their clothing with nary a thought, he knew, but Shining also knew the woman atop him was about the seduction, reveling in the moment and not wanting to rush matters. So he indulged her, lifting up a little to reach for the clasp of the dress at the back of her neck and undoing it before trailing his hand down her bare back to where the zipper was below, resting at the small of her back. A simple tug allowed him to bring it down further, soon exposing the start of the valley of her ass. His gaze stayed fixated on her rear as more and more of her pale skin was revealed, the dress coming off only once the zipper was fully undone and the dress was no longer needed. It was tossed aside, as well as her matching panties via her magic. Shining’s breathing became heavier as he beheld her rear end, the view now unobstructed by anything. It was as massive as his desires had imagined, both cheeks giving a light wobble as the Changeling Queen shifted on top of him. She sat up, arching her back a little to push it out a little more, for his benefit. He hadn’t even thought of it before his hands were upon them, squeezing and exploring the once forbidden flesh now offered to him. The digits sank into her ass cheeks with little effort, causing Chrysalis to coo from the adoration. “Want me to bring them closer?” She offered. “Please.” The voice that left Shining’s voice was husky, lust rampant in his tone. Chrysalis smiled, and the next Shining knew, he was on his back again, a pillow under his head as the world above him became nothing but Chrysalis’ bountiful ass. His hands immediately latched onto her rear, while his senses became awash with her once more. She smelled divine, as if her skin itself was perfumed with floral fragrances aplenty. He nuzzled into her rear, basking in how soft and warm it felt against his face and urging his desires for more of the same. His tongue poked out and he chanced a swipe at her cheek to his left, and found no off-putting sensation greeting him. She didn’t even need to ask as he pulled her down moreso against himself, the cushion of the pillow under his head preventing him from feeling any strain or pain. He feasted upon every bit of her he could get ahold of, urging a moan out of the Changeling while he licked and kissed and rubbed against all of her ass he could get ahold of. Her sounds only encouraged Shining into further debauchery, his tongue searching further as a taste of something sweet arrived a few moments later. He followed the taste further down, and his tongue soon pressed up against something very hot and wet. Chrysalis gave a surprised chirp before she pushed back harder, her lips nudging up against his exploring tongue. “Eat me, Shining. Eat my pussy.” she gasped out. He took to the charge with gusto, moving her up a little and raising his head so he could push his tongue into her waiting folds with less strain on them both. The comforting sensation of her bountiful ass surrounding his head was enticing as much as the taste of her pussy on his mouth. He drank of her, his first proper taste washing over his tongue and making him throb in his pants once more. His legs twitched and shifted, the lust coursing through him as he ate her out. Every quick inhale of air for his lungs’ sake only filled his mind with more desire, her arousal washing over him with each intake. Shining only noticed a change of pace when his pants were suddenly removed from his legs, and his throbbing cock settled in the Changeling’s grasp. Her fingers were cool against his heated skin at first, his rigid member pulsing beneath her fingertips. The flick of a wet tongue against his swollen tip made him gasp into her folds, her ass shaking around his head while she pressed herself down against him more, yearning for his tongue to go deeper into her. It became a back and forth between them, of tender affection and lust echoed from one to the other. He would delve into her folds, tongue exploring and tasting of her essence, and she’d reply with a few strokes of her hand along his cock while her lips enclosed around the tip and suckled from it, drawing his own essence out of it as it leaked. He felt her pull off his cock and she moaned as he brushed her clit with his tongue, the pearl throbbing against him. “Fuck this cock...you taste heavenly, Shiny.” She declared, lifting herself up to press her ass firmer down against his head. He groaned into her, able to feel wet droplets trickle down the sides of his mouth and lips. “You’re so good to me. And you’re loving having this ass on top of you, aren’t you?” She lifted herself up just enough to let fresh air flow to him, her nethers hovering just above his mouth. “Y-yes…” he managed to let out, gasping. “It’s amazing.” “And you haven’t even ridden it yet. I should tell Cadance to restrict you more; you’re so hungry for pussy, it’s a buffet for you.” Before Shining could protest any such remark, she pressed down again, his lust urging him to lick once more from her depths. And lick he did, much to the moaning woman’s satisfaction. The comment about Cadance still rang in his mind; he was engaging in sexual acts with another woman, outside of his marriage! But he didn’t tarry in the slightest. He throbbed harder in her grasp, licked with the desperation of a thirsty man in the desert. She rewarded him by sucking on his cock harder, soft lips surrounding his tip and then a few inches as she sunk down further. Shining could feel himself edging towards his climax, at the rate Chrysalis was going. But he found a reprieve as his world suddenly turned black, the woman’s rear slapping down on his head as she lifted off of his cock when his tongue found an area in her cunt that felt different from the rest. “O-oh! Right there! There there!” She demanded. He lashed at the area again, twice from the left, then once from the right. Chrysalis squirmed, her ass jiggling around his head as she squealed. More of her juices leaked out over his tongue and mouth, entertaining Shining’s imagination for a minute of almost drowning in her essence. Then Chrysalis seemed to lock up, her body tensing before she suddenly went slack atop him. She continued to drip her femcum out in small, soft splashes that fell on Shining’s still licking tongue, wanting to embellish her orgasm all he could. It was only when she finally lifted her rear off of his head, rolling to the side of him, that Shining could see the wood ceiling above and breathe fresh air again. His cock throbbed against his belly, twitching in want and still wet with Chrysalis’ saliva. He panted for air, much like the buxom woman beside him was. Reality caught up with Shining then, his eyes widening. He’d just ate out another woman’s pussy, feasted on her, without any second thought. He hadn’t even tried to consider what he was doing, and here he was, pants gone, mouth covered in her femcum, yearning for more of her! He should stop this, he should teleport out and talk to Cadance. Tell her what he did. Chrysalis shifted beside him, and Shining’s attention fell to her. The look of lust in Chrysalis’ harlequin green eyes made him throb, her slit iris’ staring back at him. “Y’know...eat a woman out that much, and she’ll make you her permanent seat instead of her throne.” She taunted, crawling back over to him. Her form slipped astride his, letting her peer down at him as her long locks of hair fell about her face and his. It tickled at his cheek, soft and like a wisp of air. “C-Chrysalis. I...I should stop. I’m…” Shining tried to muster his courage before the Changeling Queen, but the words wouldn’t come forward. He lost his track as the heat of her nethers ground against his cock, pressed between their bodies as she rubbed up against him. Her hands came to his chest, fingers gripping his shirt’s cloth before it became surrounded by her magic. “We don’t need this. It’s in the way.” She declared before his upper clothing was cast away, leaving him as nude as she was. Her breasts, full and capped with light pink nipples, shifted as she lowered down until she was flat against him. Her tongue licked out at his bare chest, crossing one pec over to the other. The act alone felt like fire across his skin, and he couldn’t stop the shaky moan that left him. “The taste of a stud...so invigorating.” “C-Chryssi, please.” Shining’s hands came up onto her sides, resting there. She was so soft under his grasp. He could sink his fingers into her hips so easily. “W-we should stop. This isn’t...it’s not right!” “Oh, my little Shining Armor. Well. Not really so little at all,” Chrysalis giggled, resting a hand on his cheek, “If this wasn’t right, then why are you so eager to get inside me? I can feel you throbbing on my pussy. Your tongue,” she paused to kiss him, brief but long enough to let him feel the swipe of her own tongue on his before she withdrew, “is coated in my juices. And you expect me to believe you don’t want this at all?” “I...I…” “If you can say it right now, those words. I’ll walk away right now. But only if you really, truly, one hundred percent can say it.” Chrysalis challenged. She leaned down and kissed his cheek, trailing down to his ear, where she whispered into it. “I’m waiting…” It was easy. He could say so. He could definitely declare he didn’t want this. Shining licked his lips, the sweet taste of Chrysalis’ pussy lashing at his will from his tongue. She wasn’t...that desirable. His cock throbbed as he felt her wetness seep around him, the smell of their lust awash around them. He knew the words he could say, but he couldn’t bring himself to say no. Because saying no would’ve been a lie to himself, to his instincts. Even if it meant he was breaking a vow...it only made him harder, rubbing against her groin as she cooed in his ear. “Good answer, my knight.” Chrysalis said, leaning up and smiling down at him. Her horn glowed bright and Shining felt her magic surround his length as she hoisted herself up, looking down to where his tool stood tall and proud, pointed right at her waiting entrance. This was it! He could tell her no! Stop this! “C-Chryssi!” “I love it when you say my name.” She sank down, his swollen tip being engulfed by her lips as they parted for him, Chrysalis biting her lip and groaning from her throat as he spread her. Shining closed his eyes, mind reeling from the sensations coming from his cock. The further she sank, the more it became a weight that blew the air out of his lungs, leaving him gasping as she took him further and further until he was hilted inside of her. So much warmth, like an embrace of fire and carnal want, surrounded his cock as she squeezed around him. It was so unlike Cadance’s, he couldn’t help a buck upwards into her, making Chrysalis give a start before she laughed. “So eager! And so strong...this is where this cock belongs.” Chrysalis said before lifting her hips up, extracting him from her with deliberate slowness to extend the friction of her pussy against his cock. Shining threw his head back, moaning at the sensation. He could almost imagine hearing a sort of sucking noise coming from their joined nethers, her vaginal walls clinging to his every inch in equal spurts of lust and affection. She only got to halfway up before she slammed down, moaning in glee at the sensation of him filling her again. “Yes! Oh, Shining!” She started riding him then, and he offered no resistance. He’d succumbed to her, clinging to her hips first to balance her as he opened his eyes to behold the woman astride him. There was no essence of his wife present; only the glorious, lust-inspiring image of Chrysalis riding him, bouncing her rear off his lap in rhythmic claps as her ass cheeks rose and fell in tandem with her motions. Her turquoise hair whipped around her head as she threw it back, then stared down at him. She held his gaze, her hands affixed to his chest for balance while her nails dug into his chest. The tingle wasn’t painful from them though, only heightening his arousal as she claimed his cock again and again. Her breasts made a delightful show of bouncing before his eyes, making him yearn to touch and squeeze them. When his hands raised up to try and make for her impressive mounds, Chrysalis caught onto him quickly. She allowed his left hand to grab her breast, fingers sinking into her softness with ease, but the other hand was caught by her own. Shining watched her bring it up to her face level, before groaning as she took his index finger into her lips and sucked on the end, treating it as if it were the cock being rammed up inside of her. Her tongue was almost frantic around the digit, wet and slick as she swapped out for a harder and faster rhythm of riding him. It was all too much to think of. Shining squeezed her breast harder in his grasp, evoking a muffled squeal from the Changeling Queen as she clenched around him, further milking him and trying to squeeze more cum from him. He was getting close, too close. He could still stop. He’d be blue-balled and in pain but he could do it. He just had to get this sex fiend of a woman off his lap. But his hand wouldn’t grab for her side, nor would his hips stop thrusting up into her depths. There was no will to stop her, to stop this heated moment of passion. Chrysalis released his finger, saliva linking her lips to his wet finger, and she moaned to him. “Is it better than hers, Shining? I can feel you throbbing inside me.” No, it could never be better than hers- “Oh stars yes.” The words left his mouth quicker than he could realize, and in that moment, his restraint collapsed. A strangled sound left his throat and his back arched, pushing his cock into her to the hilt as she came down. It was electrifying to him, pleasure skyrocketing as his orgasm hit and his cum splashed into her waiting depths. Chrysalis threw her head back, squeezing tight around him again, her pink tongue out against her dark, sensual lips as she relished his climax. Spurt after heavy spurt left Shining’s cock, further filling the buxom woman’s pussy with his seed. His buildup after going so long without soon had his essence leaking out of her, dotting the insides of her thighs and his groin white. Chrysalis fell upon him in a sweaty, delighted heap, gasping for air. Instinct had Shining grasp for her, holding her to him like any lover would. The Changeling Queen cooed and seemed to writhe astride him, as Shining realized he was still rock hard inside of her. Inside a woman who was not his wife, who openly welcomed his sexual wants and took his seed with all the pleasure in the world. The shock should have made him weep, to feel guilt and shame to render it all mute. But he didn’t. He was harder than even he could imagine, lust still coiled inside him and wanting a release. Even knowing his wife had invited such ideas in the past, still, should he not feel some degree of guilt? He took one look at Chrysalis, her long locks fanned out over her back. He could feel the hardened nubs of her breasts still pressed against his chest, as sweat trailed down his neck. And he remembered once, how Cadance had told him how he deserved to enjoy and feel all the love a hard working captain should. He waited on her hand and foot, tended to every need, weathered the banes of pregnancy for her. How could he not earn the right to relish more affection, most especially at the behest of the Princess of Love herself? If any woman’s able to get your eyes off of me, I’d definitely want to know, Shining. “Wow...you really needed to let loose.” Chrysalis commented to him, lifting her head up to look at him. “You military boys keep things so wound up. Didn’t she ever let you cut loose?” That may have been the trigger, Shining would reflect later, that led him to suddenly claim the woman’s lips with his again. It certainly caught her off guard, squeaking into his mouth before letting him continue. Shining made quick work of their positions, moving them from her being on top of him to her being underneath his form. She was sprawled out under him, panting by the time he released her lips. If she was surprised, it didn’t make her stop him. He’d pulled out of her in the process of moving, his cum flowing out of her pussy in a slow but steady drip of white against her pale thigh. He took ahold of her legs, a snort of air leaving his nose as he held onto her by the ankles. “S-Shining?” Chrysalis questioned. “W-wait a minute, I’m still getting some air and - oohhhh…” Her words trailed into a groan as he sunk his cock back into her depths, but now with the advantage of himself being on top. He towered over her, pushing her legs further back as he sank into her. The welcome embrace of her cum-soaked tunnel only encouraged him, as much as Chrysalis’ gasps for air. By the time he stopped, once more buried to the hilt in her and his balls resting against her buttocks, her face had a deep red flush to its pale countenance that pleased the lust inside him. He kept her there, even managing to make his cock twitch inside her with a simple flex of muscle that made her give a start, before withdrawing back a third. He moaned as he did; she was still tight around him, even after their first round together. “Yes...give me it all, Shiny.” Chrysalis moaned below him, hands reaching out to him. “Give me what she can’t take.” The gauntlet was thrown, and Shining answered it with gusto. He slammed into her again, and Chrysalis welcomed it with an eager gasp. Her full lips called to him again, and he kissed her once more, her darkened green lips likely smudging against his by now. The Prince welcomed it, continuing his deep thrusts into her depths and further ravishing her pussy. Their tongues writhed against each other, Shining almost drinking of her saliva while retaining control over their rough lovemaking. He relinquished his grasp of her legs, letting Chrysalis stay in that pose while she reached around to cling onto him tight with both arms. Her nails grazed along his sweat-dotted back, the bed creaking and bumping into the wall with each hard thrust he made into her. She took all of it, and gave back as she squeezed around him, leaving his lips to lick and kiss at his cheek, his neck, tasting all of him she could get ahold of. She took to his sweat especially, he noticed, the idea of her drinking his body fluids making his mind wonder if he should pull out at the end to really let her drink. But a pulse of heat from her nethers banished the idea; the only place for him to finish was inside her, as much as he wished to. “Y-you...you never go...this hard...on her, do you?” She gasped between thrusts, talking into his neck. “She can’t...always. Small body.” He grunted out. Thinking of her, his beloved wife, only made him push faster, harder into the wanting woman beneath him. “Fuck you feel so good!” “Yes. Yes, Shiny! Gimme that...oh!” Chrysalis beckoned him, and he felt her grow intensely tight around his cock. Fluids splashed against his lap, and he realized he’d made her cum again. He didn’t drop pace in the slightest, a realization that hit Chrysalis as she could only manage a brief inhale before moaning again. Wet slaps fell from between them, the sound of his still heavy balls beating against her rear end. Her sensual sounds beckoned him on as he rutted into her, making her his plaything. Lust beckoned Shining to move his head down, shifting their positions again. Now Chrysalis could relax more under him, not needing to flex so much while he pounded his thick cock into her wanting nethers. Shining meanwhile found the benefit of being head level with Chrysalis’ mounds, burying his face into their cleavage and basking in the smell of her as much as the taste when his tongue lashed out. One of Chrysalis’ hands pushed on his head, keeping him there while the other was missing, clutching at the bedsheets he imagined. Lips searching, Shining kissed his way across her breasts until he found her nipple, latching onto it and suckling hard. Chrysalis’ delighted squeal kept him going, his hips moving faster and letting him forget rhythm in the interest of just getting to fuck the seductress beneath him. Her pink nipple became his means of further pushing her buttons; every time he’d graze it or nip at her, she’d tighten around him, pushing up into his thrusts or moaning his name. It was pure, unfiltered want shared between them, and he basked in it. Shining’s endurance came into play as she was slammed into another climax, causing her to gasp for air as her eyes rolled around, tongue lolling out the side of her mouth. But he never relented, taking her up on her offered idea of giving all the lust he had built up over the weeks into the willing Changeling. Every teasing peek of Cadance in the bedroom at home, every upturned skirt of the cute maids running about the castle, but most especially the wanton woman whose pussy was quickly becoming affixed to being his and only his cocksleeve. He could scarcely imagine going without such a bedroom pleasure now that he’d experienced it. The heat of the air and his own rising climax began to beat at the sides of his brain, and he relaxed his pace only a little. He wasn’t wanting to ruin his fun too soon, she was too good to be away from! Chrysalis took the opening to kiss at Shining’s forehead, his temple, then his ear as he lifted his head up to meet her motion. She murmured in his ear words he didn’t expect, but ones that caused his cock to throb. “Knock me up, Shining Armor. Give me a baby. You’ve come once in me already; why not again? It’ll feel soooo good…” Shining’s offered temptation ran circles in his mind. He could give in and let himself cum inside her, and possibly impregnate the woman he’d found himself lost in a lustful affair with. Or he could pull out. He could still do it. Who would turn down a finish in the Changeling’s throat, sucking at his cock, or between the valley of her tits to finish across her chest and face? When Chrysalis’ legs managed to bring themselves around to his back, her feet locking around one another, she made the decision for him. Faster and faster his hips moved, deep gasps of air leaving the weary Prince as he stuffed her full of his throbbing cock. His release was boiling inside him, begging to come out, and she beckoned it with her moans in his ear, ushering assurances of how he could do it, how she’d love for him to fill her to the brim. The consistent beckoning, the lure of her sweet words, pushed him over. He grunted, groaning as he felt the cum surge up his cock. “Chrysalis!” “Oh, Shining! Shining, yes!” She called back. He flooded her once more, the bulk of his seed splashing against her deepest points and filling her wanting womb with more of his cum. He stayed buried to the hilt in her, gasping for air against her chest as she locked up around him, another climax rocking her body as well. No more words were spoken as they fell upon one another’s body, a tangle of limbs and sweat and sexual juices that most definitely ruined the sheets they’d been on top of. Shining never let go of her, even by the time he had softened and slipped out of her cum-drenched nethers. Chrysalis nuzzled into his neck, face flushed and her aura seeming to glow while basking in the afterglow of their sex. Exhaustion overtook Shining’s consciousness as the consequences of his actions came to bear finally past the roaring lust he’d been enduring. He closed his eyes, and knew no more beyond the smell of Chrysalis’ hair and her heartbeat against his chest as they laid together, all the rest of the world forgotten in the aftermath. The Next Day “So...Chryssi huh?” The pair of them sat together in the bedroom, Shining beside his wife on their bed. He told her of everything that had transpired, from the start of the party to his and Chrysalis’ tryst in the bedroom. He wasn’t sure what to expect of her; anger at the breach of the rule? Humor at the poor maids having to clean the mess after? Demanding compensation via some manner of cruel fate? “Yes. I...I couldn’t control myself. I tried to. But...well.” “You know I’m not mad, right Shining?” She asked, making him look to his wife. Her radiant countenance looked to him with a smile, one that understood him without any effort. “I know. I...we talked about this all before, of course. Just...you always come first. That was the agreement.” Cadance rested her hand on his, squeezing it gently. He held her gaze before looking surprised as she giggled. “Well. It was Chrysalis who did this time. Still the gentleman always, my Shining.” “Ehehe…” “But still. I think I’ll allow her on the list. On one singular condition.” Shining nodded. “Name it.” “The next time you get to feeling that pent up? Bring it to me first.” She asked, making him pause and tilt his head. Cadance grinned at him in a playful fashion. “I want Flurry Heart to have more siblings than just her Changeling sister.”
