Girl in the Tower
With a final flap of her magnificent wings, Princess Celestia landed on the tower’s balcony. She shifted, her enchanted golden armor heavy on her slender but powerful frame. She looked behind her and peered over the railing at the lights of the city below. She smiled at the thought of the celebrations happening in her honor, the peasantry likely to party until the sun rose in recognition of their new-found freedom. No longer would the little ponies have to suffer under the cruel tyranny of the sorceress Akumu-no-tsuki, that wicked witch from the lands beyond the far east. The enchantress was destroyed, her legions of hell-fiends returned to the abyss from whence they came. The quest had been a long one, but worth it.
Now all that remained was to claim her reward.
A noise drew her attention back to the curtains that marked the tower’s entrance. She turned and watched as a blue aura of magic seized the drapes and pulled them aside, allowing the tower’s sole occupant to step onto the balcony with her rescuer.
“So you’ve come at last… my hero.”
Celestia’s jaw dropped as she stared at the mare standing before her. “Lady Rarity…”
The white unicorn giggled as she did a little twirl, her silk nightgown’s hem lifting as she did so. Her mane settled on her face, covering one eye. The other batted playfully, and she grinned. “Has my sleepwear left you speechless, my Princess?”
Celestia nodded slowly before shaking her head and clearing her throat. “Forgive me, Lady Rarity. Speechless I am indeed, for there are no words in common Equestrian or any other that can properly convey a beauty such as yours.”
“A tongue as silver as your sword, I see.” Rarity stepped closer and looked over the railing. “Look how happy they are. All thanks to you.”
“I simply go where I’m needed, my lady. Your ponies were suffering, so I did what I could to help.” Celestia stood taller, her chin raised proudly. “Such is the life of a wandering warrior princess.”
“And now that your quest is at an end, what will you do now?”
“There are other kingdoms, my lady. Other ponies in need of my help.”
Rarity sighed dramatically. “I was afraid you’d say that.” She looked up at the taller alicorn sadly. “Is there no way I could convince you to stay? We could use a leader like you to guide us, to help us find our path once again.”
“Ah, but don’t you see, my lady?” Celestia reached down and cupped the mare’s chin in her hoof. “Your ponies have that leader already.”
Rarity smiled as she rubbed herself against the hoof. “I will miss you terribly. I’ve become quite fond of you, you know.”
“And I, you.”
Rarity pulled away and gave a little bow. “You’ll accept a reward, I trust? A token of our gratitude?”
Celestia looked away, almost shyly. “Your kingdom has suffered greatly, my lady. I would be remiss if I stalled your recovery by taking something of great material value.”
Rarity’s hoof flew to her lips. “But you can’t just leave empty-hooved. Surely there is something we, I, could grant you equal in measure to your incredible deeds?”
Celestia swallowed and looked back down at the unicorn. “There is… one thing I desire before I depart for parts unknown. Something that is only in the Lady Rarity’s power to grant me.”
“Name it.” Rarity smiled earnestly. “Simply name it and it is yours, my hero.”
Celestia bent forward until her muzzle was inches away from Rarity’s. She could smell the mare’s jasmine perfume, could very nearly see herself reflected in those deep blue eyes. “If you would have me… I would spend a night in the lady’s bed.”
Rarity blinked rapidly as a blush colored her face and rose through her coat. “Y… you would have… my maidenhead as your reward?”
“Your beauty has consumed my thoughts ever since I first beheld you standing on this very spot, held captive by the sorceress. Your smile is the last thing to cross my mind before I sleep and the first when I wake. Your laugh fills my heart like none other.” Celestia’s eyelids lowered as her eyes swept over the mare’s form. “The curves of your body… they stir something in me. Something that wants you very badly.”
“So bold, my hero.” Rarity tittered as she blushed harder. “I would be lying if I hadn’t thought the same of you. So brave, so beautiful…” She smirked. “So tall.”
Celestia chuckled before rubbing her face against Rarity’s. “All I ask is one night. For just one night, let me show you how wonderful you make me feel.”
Rarity sighed as she returned the nuzzle. “You make a tempting offer, my hero. Many a night has passed recently when thoughts of you would not depart, and only my own touch could quell the burning in my loins enough to allow sleep to come.” She craned her neck so her lips were near the alicorn’s ear. “So often I would imagine it was your hoof and not my own.” She whispered.
Celestia shivered. “Let us imagine no more, my lady. Just for tonight, let me make your dreams come true.”
Rarity pulled away and nodded. “Perhaps it would be best if you joined me inside, my hero. Lest I impel you to deflower me on this very balcony.”
Now it was Celestia who smirked. “A tempting idea. Perhaps I should modify my original choice of reward.”
“Oh hush, my hero.” Rarity laughed as she started back towards the curtains. “You asked for a night in my bed, and that’s what you shall have.” She looked back and winked. “Leave your armor at the door.”
Celestia’s magic flowed across her, unsnapping buckles and undoing straps. Piece by piece, her heavy golden armor was laid on the marble floor. Her enchanted sword in its scabbard was laid against the wall, and she followed the Lady Rarity into the tower. She felt light and naked without her armaments and armor, and the feeling only made her that much more anxious to be inside. She passed the threshold and felt the curtains fall shut behind her. She froze as she took in the scene.
Rarity had been busy. Dozens of candles flickered in the dark, their light creating shadows that danced along the walls. The unicorn herself had done away with her nightgown and now lay, bare and ready, on her side on the huge bed against the room’s far wall. She traced circles on the covers with her hoof and tossed her mane out of her face. She cast a come-hither look at the warrior princess who had saved her kingdom and gestured at her body with her free hoof. “Is your reward to your liking?”
Celestia’s throat was dry, but she managed a nod as she approached the bed that held her reward. She clambered up, crawling on her forelegs until she was right alongside the mare. “I wish I was an artist. I would paint the image before me. It’s a crime that only I should behold a beauty such as this.”
“This sight is for you and you alone, my hero.” She lay on her back and looked up with the best bedroom eyes she could muster. “But why simply look… when you can touch?”
Celestia reached across the smaller mare and loomed over her. She leaned forward until her mouth was inches from Rarity’s. “I will touch. I will, and I will do so much more besides. But first… may I kiss you?”
Rarity’s lips met hers, and the two mares inhaled sharply at the first contact. The kiss started slow, but soon gained a new heat as the pair began to give in to their baser urges. Tongues began to vie for control, but Celestia soon gained the upper hoof. Rarity surrendered easily, allowing her much larger lover to take the lead. Celestia’s tongue was bigger then hers, and she thrilled on the inside as she was orally dominated.
Celestia broke the kiss and pulled away only slightly, a stray chain of saliva left linking her lips to Rarity’s. “My lady…”
“Please, be gentle.” Rarity threw a foreleg over her eyes and spread her hind legs wide. “It’s my first time, after all.”
Celestia couldn’t help it. She snorted.
At the sound of her lover’s derisive noise, Rarity peeked out from behind her foreleg and glared at the alicorn that loomed over her. “What?”
“It’s nothing…” Celestia tried to compose herself, but failed and started chuckling.
“What is so funny?” Rarity demanded, dropping her foreleg and glaring up at her lover.
“It’s just…” Celestia laughed harder and shook her head. “It’s hard to take you seriously when you say things like that.”
Rarity raised an eyebrow. “How so?”
“Well, you didn’t act like that at all when we had our actual first time, dearest.”
“I’m playing a part.” Rarity pouted. “The virginal princess spurred to passion by the gallant hero.”
“The virginal princess who very quickly agreed to a one night stand with the princess who already said she was leaving the next day?”
“Well, we’re in a hurry, aren’t we? I know you need to be up early…” She rolled her eyes. “I wasn’t expecting you and Luna to actually fight for three hours.”
“Not my fault.” Celestia’s laughter had finally subsided and she wiped the tears from her eyes. “How was I supposed to know that my sister wanted a rematch so badly?”
“I’m just thankful she remembered she was supposed to lose.” Rarity sniffed. “She nearly had you at the end there.”
“Lies. Lies and slander.” Celestia pecked her lover’s lips and smiled. “I’m sorry I broke character. It won’t happen again.”
Rarity smiled as she returned the small kiss. “Thank you. And thank you for going through all this trouble for me. I know what a hassle it was to get your armor out of storage.”
“Anything for you, my love.” She kissed her again, longer this time. “Now, where were we?”
“I believe you were about to take your reward… my hero.” Rarity licked her lips as her thighs spread open once again.
“And what a reward it is.” Celestia kissed the unicorn’s lips once more before sliding down her body. Her tongue left a wet trail from the mare’s chin, down her barrel, around both teats, before finally reaching their goal betwixt the alabaster thighs. Celestia took in her lover’s sex and blew upon it lightly. Rarity shivered from the blow and gasped as she winked. “In all my travels, never have I beheld a flower of such a perfect pink. How soft and sweet it looks…”
“Taste of it, my hero, and tell me if it is to your liking.” Rarity whispered hotly.
“With pleasure.” Celestia’s tongue crossed the unicorn’s lips. As the mare cried out, Celestia licked again. When she winked again, Celestia took the invitation and dove in, eating out the smaller pony with gusto. While Rarity mewled and begged, Celestia explored and tasted every inch of her insides. Her muzzle bumped against Rarity’s clit and she took it into her mouth and sucked. Rarity’s back arched as the older mare made a meal out of her, drinking in her coos and cries just as much as she was drinking her nectar. Celestia released her clit and began to twirling her tongue around it in rapid circles.
Rarity’s hips began to unconsciously gyrate in time with her lover’s ministrations, and her hooves began clenching at the ever-flowing aurora that was Celestia’s mane. “Ah! My… my hero…!” She gasped as a fresh bolt of pleasure raced through her. She pushed Celestia’s muzzle deeper into her sex and ground against it wantonly. “I’m so close! Don’t… ah! Don’t stop.”
Celestia had no intention of stopping. Rarity’s juices were as sweet as ambrosia, as intoxicating as the finest wines. She intensified her efforts, her head bobbing from the forceful actions of her tongue. “Give it to me, my lady.” She managed between licks. “Give me all of it. All of you.”
Rarity’s orgasm struck without warning and she cried out as her back arched and her hips lifted off the bed. She came into her lover’s mouth and let out a very unladylike squeal when Celestia’s actions didn’t slow, but sped up as she tried to drink every drop. Her hooves fell to the bedspread and pawed them weakly as her climax continued. She relaxed at last, collapsing to the bed and panting softly, a thin sheen of sweat on her coat. She twitched once more as Celestia gave her flower one last lick before sliding back up her body. “Was… was it to your liking, my hero?” She smiled weakly up at the alicorn.
“My lady, if there was some way of bottling it so I could carry it on my journey, I would give all my worldly possessions for but a single flask.”
Rarity saw the shine of her own fluids on Celestia’s lips and tilted her chin up. “So wonderful? Let me taste then, and see for myself?”
Celestia kissed Rarity once more, letting the unicorn take the lead as she licked up every trace of her own essence from her mouth. Without breaking the kiss, she slowly lowered her body across the unicorn’s and wrapped her hooves around her. Rarity’s forelegs obediently wrapped themselves around Celestia’s neck, and the alicorn rolled until it was she who was on her back. She squeezed the smaller body against hers as they continued to sloppily make out.
Rarity broke the kiss and snuggled into the embrace. She always felt so safe and secure in the larger mare’s arms. “I hope you aren’t satisfied yet. As nice as that was, it was hardly a reward worthy of a hero of your standing.”
Celestia smirked as her horn lit.
Rarity and Celestia had been together long enough now that the unicorn could often tell the spell her lover was casting simply by the smell of the magic, and she returned the smirk when she recognized what her talented princess was conjuring. “So… you aim to take me?”
“I’m simply claiming my reward.” Celestia winked as the spell began to take shape down below. “Claiming it thoroughly.”
Rarity felt the familiar prodding and, almost on instinct, her tail lifted. She planted her hooves on Celestia’s chest and pushed herself up and back, sliding her hips backwards until she was lined up. She spared a glance back and smiled at the familiar form of Celestia’s magical phallus manifestation. The golden image of a stallionhood reached from Celestia’s sex all the way to Rarity’s, and had been perfectly sized to her specifications after many sessions of… rigorous testing. She looked back at Celestia and cleared her throat, trying to get back in character. “You appear to have another sword, my hero. One of gold instead of silver.”
“A sword it is indeed, my lady.” Celestia winced as she felt the first touch of wet heat on the magical tip. The spell made her erection real in all ways but flesh. She could feel every sensation. “One very much in need of a sheath.”
“A sheath I can provide you, my hero.” Rarity pushed back and sighed with contentment as the first few inches slid into her sopping wet core. “I can only hope it is worthy of such a weapon.”
Celestia’s breath caught as she was enveloped in Rarity’s warmth. “It… it… it is the w-weapon that i-is unworthy, my… ah! Oh, Rarity…”
“Shh, my darling.” Rarity slid all the way back until the entirety of the magical stallionhood was nestled inside her. She breathed slowly as she adjusted to that familiar, wonderful feeling of being filled so completely, so perfectly… She braced her hooves on Celestia’s chest and gave her hips a slow roll. She grinned at the noise of need that came from the princess below her. “Let me take care of it from here. This is your reward, my hero. My love…” With slow, practiced movements, she slid forward and back again. Celestia’s magic rod slid in and out with ease, and she quickly settled into a comfortable rhythm.
Celestia gasped and moaned as Rarity made love to her. She marveled at the smaller pony that was now looming over her, dominating her, taking her as few of her past lovers ever had. Everything with Rarity was an art, and her antics in the bedroom were no exception. Her hooves found their way to Rarity’s flanks and grabbed a firm hold, helping the mare in her leisurely ride. She gave a squeeze and and gave a little push, regaining some small semblance of control in the situation. “You’re amazing…”
“That means the world coming from you, darling.” Rarity panted in exertion from the motion of her hips. She punctuated every few thrusts with a small gyration that never failed to make her lover grit her teeth and hiss from pleasure. She pushed up until she was fully seated on the golden phallus and let out a gasping moan as it reached her deepest point. “Would you mind…?”
Celestia’s only answer was to tighten her grip on Rarity’s flanks and begin thrusting her hips up off the bed, not missing a stroke from the pace Rarity had set. She moaned when she felt the mare pulse around her and stared at her with pure lust in her eyes. “Will you dance for me, my lady?”
Rarity, who was rapidly losing herself to the pleasure, couldn’t help but giggle in between her small cries. “You do enjoy watching me, don’t you?”
“More than you’ll ever know.”
Rarity’s hooves found their way to her mane and she grabbed at her purple locks wantonly as she began to swivel her hips in perfect counter-time to Celestia’s thrusts. The two mares moved as one, each perfectly in tune with the needs and wants of the other. Their shadows danced on the walls, black reliefs in flickering orange. The air filled with the wet sounds and subtle aromas of their passion. Their moans and cries grew in time with one another, neither racing against the other, each working to keep in pace with their partner. They didn’t speed up, but maintained their steady, purposeful motion. Theirs was a perfectly tuned clock, each thrust and gyration pushing them farther, pushing them closer, to the explosion of love they both craved.
Rarity, her ruined mane now lying in sweaty tatters across her face, looked down at her lover, mouth agape and gasping for air. “My… oh, Celestia… I’m so close…”
Celestia’s expression mirrored her lover’s, her own mane so soaked with exertion that it was barely even flowing. “C… cum with me.” She punctuated the order with another squeeze and a more forceful thrust.
“Ah! As… as my princess commands…” Rarity crested the hill of her climax and arched her back, crying her release to the ceiling above.
The image of her lover lost in the throes of her orgasm was too much, and Celestia very nearly screamed as she reached her own finishing point. Her summoned stallionhood could not cum, but she absolutely could. Her forelegs squeezed Rarity’s hips tight and held her in place as she rode out the storm.
The two mares stayed like that, frozen, before their respective tensions released as one. Rarity felt the magic fade from her nethers, and her eyes widened in alarm when she felt herself falling backwards. Celestia sat up in an instant, holding her mare against her chest. Rarity made small, happy noises as she rubbed her face into her princess’ sweaty chest and snuggled deeper into her embrace. They stayed that way for a while, each feeling the others heartbeat as it slowed to normal.
Rarity looked up at Celestia and smiled in satisfaction. “Thank you, my love.”
Celestia returned the smile before leaning down and kissing the mare she loved. “Happy anniversary, dearest.” She fell back onto the bed, her forelegs still holding the unicorn against her chest.
Rarity yawned as her exhaustion and Celestia’s ambient heat began to urge her to sleep. “This was fun, wasn’t it?”
Celestia was already dozing. “Mm-hmm.”
“Perhaps the wandering warrior princess could return someday soon.” Rarity closed her eyes and yawned again. “Perhaps to ask the lady for her hoof.”
Celestia chuckled. “Hinting at something?” No response came, as gentle breathing revealed that Rarity had already surrendered to the night. Celestia smiled and kissed the top of the mare’s head before laying back and closing her own eyes. She opened one just barely and looked over at the dresser. Rarity’s final gift still sat inside, nestled in its velvet-lined box. She’d meant to give it to her tonight. Perhaps she should wake her before she fell too far asleep. But she was so comfy, lying here with the most amazing mare on her chest. Finally, she gave in and closed her eye fully.
The girl in the tower would just have to receive the ring from her hero in the morning.
