SPECIAL CHAPTER: Lectures And Heats

"Your father will see you now, your highness." a maid informed me, my form shaking as she opened the door for me. Slinking in it took everything I had to not start shaking.Sitting atop the throne was the furious form of my father, his eyes narrowing as I shuffled into the room. Despite standing at nine and a half feet tall taller than even my mother, the small man's furious gaze filled me with fear. The silence was horrible as I felt my hands shake.

"Father, I—" a sharp wave of his hand silenced me. Standing he walked down towards me, a sudden urge to flee rising in me. I was terrified of what he might say or do, would he disown me or worse banish me. I was shaking like a leaf as feared that my own father wanted nothing to do with me.

"Isaac, I can not begin to tell you how disappointed I am in you. You disobeyed me nearly got your siblings and yourself killed and for what glory, fame?" he growled my head tilting so I did not have to look at his face. "LOOK AT ME." he roared my face darting up slightly. "I specifically told you and your siblings not to go looking for Grogar, you could have been hurt, he could have killed you. Why must you insist on questioning every thing I do?" he growled as I felt a flare of anger built in me.

"Maybe if you did not treat me like a child I would not disobey you all the time." I spat rebelliously the man pausing as he gave a tired sigh.

"You are twenty three years old, why can you not take the word of your mother and aunts whom have lived thousands and I who have seen cruelty far beyond what you could imagine? I do not say these things to make you feel small or to undermine your power. You are young and ignorant of how the world works. Grogar would have killed you had he not decided to play with you. The ram is older than even your mother and has tampered with the most foul of magics that even I dare not touch. If he had wanted to kill you, you would have been dead long before I had arrived. You had your family and I worried sick. Your mother was beyond grief stricken, she believed that I would be bringing you all home in body bags!" he snarled, his hands clenched.

"Isaac you do not begin to understand just how important you all are to us, that is why we do what we do. we tell you not to play in everfree because you could be hurt, we tell you not to visit other lands without our permission and guards because you could be used as a bargaining chip. We tell you not to go after dangerous villains because you could be killed." he whispered sighing as he sat down on the steps.

"Son we love you. Your mother, aunts, siblings and I all care for you. But trust me when I say we have never tried to put you down or make you feel insignificant. We say no to you on certain things because we know you are not ready. You have to learn to be patient and learn that everyone has limitations. I know, trust me I know how it feels to be young. You think you can conquer the world and hate waiting for things. I was in my early twenties when Moon had you. I was still young and brash and I was maybe not the best father, but my love for you and your siblings was never up to question. The herd and I may not always make the right choices in regards to your social life, but trust me when I say we would never steer you wrong when you need us or your life is on the line." he finished motion for me to sit next to him. I groaned in frustration, sitting down next to him

"I just want to be like you. You have done so much; the defeat of Tirek, slaughtering an army of demons trying to conquer equestria, the gem wasp massacre and beating the united Orc clans of Orichalcim. You did all this cool stuff and you were in your twenties." I dejectedly sighed. My father gave a small chuckle as he laid a hand on my shoulder the height difference making it slightly awkward.

"Son I had the herd at my back as well as Umbra and Discord for most of those feats. I was dealing with learning to use magic that rivaled alicorns. But i was inexperienced and head strong. I made mistakes and good people died, because of those mistakes, I left many grieving widowers and widows, children and parents. What if Ram had killed Aurora, now your aunt molly loves you to bits. But would you be able to look her in the eyes, see the grieve and sadness behind them. What of the rest of the herds could you truly look at them and not feel gut wrenching guilt? Could you face your siblings some who would maybe blame you?" he asked as I shivered at the thought.

"I didn't mean, I thought I was ready!" I whispered, tears trickling down my face as my father stood. Wrapping his arms around my head he pulled me to him.

"I know, you made a mistake a stupid and dangerous mistake but that is not the point of this I tell you this now so that you will learn and not repeat that mistake. Please son listen to me when I say this, do not go looking for Ram again, he will not be merciful next time. Not after what I did to his eye" he sighed gently patting me on the back. "And by the way you are all grounded." he finished. I gasped in shock at the fact that he was grounding us. the tender moment gone as he signaled that I could leave.

Reaching the door I sent him one last look the man now looking though papers as he lazed on the throne.

"YOUR ALIVE." Dawn cried as I gave an uneasy smile. Like aunt Celestia the mare had a pure white coat her hair like our fathers black cut short giving her what he called a tom boy appearance. Loki and Zen gave me a small nod of respect at having survived our fathers wrath if you could call it that. Alexis the youngest and the hellish offspring of Aunt Luna gave me a small scowl as I flipped her off. The mare really was a pain in the ass sometimes. But like the rest of them she had joined me in my attempt to fight Grogar so she was whilst annoying, she was also fiercely loyal and protective. Her coat was a darker blue than her mothers her hair to everyone amusement was a mix of pink, blue and green much like aunt Celestia.

"So dad didn't tan your ass red." Thomas chuckled punching me in the arm as I swatted him across the head.

"Shut it pipsqueak dad would never do that." I joked, the two of us laughing as the group crowded around to here my encounter with our dad. My six younger siblings all groaned as I finished the story filling them in on our punishment.

"Can this day get any worse." Thomas groaned our bodies freezing as we smelt the stench of arousal.

"Oh no, not now." Aurora whimpered realizing that our mothers were in heat we all made a hasty retreat making our way to the library the furthest away point from our parents bedroom. Today must have been the first day but then again most of us had been in hospital for a week and whilst we were all mostly fine Dawn still had a sling on her arm.

"Great! So we are grounded, still sore from the flank kicking we got and our parents are about to bump uglies. I swear if the embarrassment doesn't kill me then the jump from the library tower should do the trick." Thomas groaned as we nodded in agreement.

Lachlans POV

"You have gone soft." Razor wing giggled gently stroking her bulging stomach.

"Shut it fat one." I growled giving her a playful glare as she snorted. "I feel he will learn from this and hopefully be less rebellious. None of them have any idea the horrors that we faced both physically and politically. The demons of tarturus, the Minotaur slavers, the campaign for stallions equal rights the list goes on." I sighed the mare placing herself on my lap as she linked her hands around my neck.

"But look what we have all accomplished. Stallions have equal rights in both Equestrian and Changeling land as well as parts of Gryphonia. Every threat that has come along has been destroyed or driven back. Twilight and her friends/ council members have raised awareness for sexism and racism in several parts of Equestria. Celestia and her sisters continue to campaign against male cruelty and have even threatened to break off trade with certain kingdoms that still practice slavery and rape. I mean you taught us about Stockholm syndrome and other mental illnesses that we were oblivious to. The portal leading to your world has allowed us to get an influx of knowledge and wealth from books and gave us the link to unlocking a far more advanced version of world wide web. No longer are corrupt scum and tyrants able to hide the abuse as the internet allowed us to see what is going on and news is far more accurate and less open to manipulation. We have leapt three hundred years forward in regards of technology, thanks to humanity. And how was it achieved because one small male refused to be silenced, who stood up and gave the stallions a voice." Razor finished giggling as I gave her a loving kiss.

"Hun you give me far to much credit. I came into this world kicking and screaming and was prepared to go out the same way. It is bad but for a long time the only reason I went with the stallion movement was to stop the nobles from having a vote in who to marry my son off to. But as I saw the good it was doing and the hope it gave stallions I realised I could not just stop at my kids. And the rest is history." I sighed smiling as the familiar black alicorn strutted into the throne room.

"Sex... now!" she growled. Razor wings Ears perking up.

"What she said." Razor Wing giggled struggling to her feet, the two dragged me to our bedroom.

"Every heat." I sighed knowing full well that the rest of the mares would be waiting. Luckily with Discord able to over see the meetings this after noon, it allowed my herd and I to 'take care' of my herd when they were in season. The heat was much like a human females period if they were pregnant they missed them and when not it made them moody and unpredictable. I had to admit that eight mares could be a handful at times. Luckily Eris didn't have heats but that did not stop her from joining every season with the rest of them.

Platinum and Molly were the worse the two practically long lost sex sisters, the two always a challenge when in heat. A good note was that Discord after a lot of persuasion had agreed to remove the curse he had put on the Hémithanés though only on the offspring. He had also removed the curse trapping Platinum's people to just the forest allowing them to leave and explore the rest of Equis. No longer really needed Platinum had been welcomed here to help run Canterlot having been running a kingdom longer than even the alicorns had. Her sharp mind and intelligence had made her good at accounting. She had quickly taking over most of the paper work calling the alicorns incompetent tits at one point which had amused me to no end.

"Lachlan." Celsetia sighed in relief the mare fanning herself as the mares gave small cries of relief. The heat had been really bad this year and I had felt the irritation and desperation though the link that I shared with them. Alicorns and unicorns when herded for a while formed a link with fellow herd mates which only grew stronger the longer they were together. Twilight gave a shy wave the mare after 18 years of being herded to us still shy when around us, bless her.

"Come we require your services." Luna barked the mare grabbing me by the scruff of my shirt dragging me onto the bed. Platinum and Molly pinned me, the others descending on me like a pack of starved wolfs .

"DADDY FOR GOD SAKE REALLY!" Aurora cried as I walked into the dinning room the strong stench of her mother and aunt still clinging to my form as I gave her an amused smile. The kids all looked uncomfortable as the strong smell of their mothers made some of the gag.

"Oh sod off, it is because of that activity, that your ungrateful bastards are here!" I replied snapping my fingers as I removed all traces of sex leaving only the pheromones that marked me as a herded male. The group seemed to calm though none looked any less relaxed at the thought of me and their mothers.

"Dad really that is gross, I have vivid enough nightmares without you helping." Isaac growled tearing into a ham sandwich as I laughed.

"Oh, is my poor baby boy getting uncomfortable about our sex life?" Moon crooned, wrapping her arms around her son as he shivered the mare grinning as she ran her tongue loving over her son's check grooming the stallion as he struggled to break free.

"MUM." he cried the mare rolling her eyes before slowly retreating.

"Oh hush you had sauce on your check and I washed my mouth." she smirked, the young stallion relaxing before his mind clicked.

"Oh, oh god, eww ,eww ,eww ,eww ,eww." he cried, grimacing as the mare laughed.

"I think you have scared him enough for today love." I smiled the mare chuckling as she sat down beside me. Our kids were at an age now where we were able to get sick joy out of making them uncomfortable. Molly was the worst though to my surprise Luna was a close second. Now we did not go into details because that was our business but subtle or in this case not so subtle hints gave us sadistic joy in the discomfort.

"Come on you lot. You all have chores to do as punishment, so enough bitching and more eating." I ordered planning on making them work with the maids for a month to teach them not to disobey us. Luna had wanted something more harsh as had some of the others but Celestia, Nightmare and I had agreed on one month of working with the maids and two grounded. It was far more fair than they deserved but they were still kids in our eyes, at the end of the day regardless of how bad they fucked up. Hell I made stupid mistakes at that age we all had.

One thing still bugged me was how quite Grogar was being the little bastard was up to something and when I found him I was going to tear him apart for hurting my kids.

"You will get yours you bastards." I growled.
