The sun already was down, and the moon could be seen with its radiant beauty high in the sky, marking the end of the day and the start of the night.

After a while, the three princesses finally understood what Redheart meant when she told them about Blueblood’s personality change, filling Twilight with regret, Luna with even more doubts and Celestia with a strange feeling of relief. Celestia hadn't seen this side of him in a very long time. It almost seemed as far as Luna’s banishment since those days.

Having understood that, they decided to go downstairs to apologize for their reactions. Twilight was as nervous as the day she did her test to get into the Canterlot’s school for gifted unicorns. Luna started to prepare for the worse, while Celestia just seemed too distracted with something on her mind.
“Tia? Is anything troubling you?” Luna asked as she noted her sister’s lost gaze. However, her sister didn't even listen to her, causing Luna to get worried. “Celestia!”
“Huh?” Celestia got out of her thoughts as her sister’s worried face came into sight. “Oh, Lulu. Sorry, I was a little distracted and didn't hear what you said.”
“A little?” Luna asked in a mockingly tone as she turned in time to enter in the room in which the prince was.

Upon entering, they all saw the prince sitting near a window, holding his right hand, which was wrapped in bandages with red marks on where his knuckles were. However, he didn’t even notice the mares entering the room. First thing Luna noticed was a small hole of the size of a fist printed on the wall. Celestia coughed slightly, gaining the prince’s attention.
“Oh, hey there. Sorry, didn’t hear you enter.”
“We realized.” Luna said nonchalantly as she walked to him. “Whatever happened to your hand?”
“Oh, a little accident.” The prince said, trying to avoid the topic.
“Is a little accident to throw your fist to the wall?” Luna asked, narrowing her eyes as the prince just sighed at the same time he closed his eyes.
“... I was angry, right? I needed to get out some pressure or I would have exploded.”

Luna huffed as she walked back to the group of mares. Celestia just stared at him with interest growing inside of her. Before she could say something, Twilight walked in front of the prince.

The prince didn’t showed any anger, but his serious face revealed his inner feelings. Twilight was afraid. She was surprised to admit it, but she couldn’t deny it. This new Blueblood was somewhat scary when he was serious. Wanting to end the situation as quickly as possible, she sighed before starting her speech.
“Blueblood… I… I wanted to apologize… for how I reacted earlier.” The prince’s gaze softened slightly, giving place to a less stern look. However, seeing this, Twilight saw it wasn’t enough to relieve him. “... Redheart told us everything about your change… and the way you treated her.”

The prince turned his head to Redheart, who seemed somewhat embarrassed at the fact that she revealed private information from both of them. However, the prince just made a slight reverence with his head, followed by a short smile, which made Redheart to sigh in relief.

Turning again to the purple mare in front of him, he stood up, revealing that he was slightly taller than her. His gaze never breaking its serious tone. Twilight felt literally as if she was looking at a giant. The prince started to move his hand, leading it upwards.

She closed her eyes in preparation at what she could assume was a well-deserved revenge. She started to hit him with no reason, after all.

As moments passed, she suddenly felt not a hard slap, but a soft touch in her shoulder. Opening her eyes, he saw the prince looking at her with a small but reassuring smile.
“... There’s nothing to forgive.”

Leaving the purple princess dumbfounded on her place, the prince walked pass her, heading to a window, and sat down. Twilight on the other hoof, blinked a couple of times before turning to him.
“Is that it!?” The prince turned to her, looking at the purple princess, who seemed offended. “You’re just going to leave it like that? You’re not going to get mad at me?” She said, walking toward him.
“Oh, trust me when I say that I’m pretty angry with you.” The prince said as he got on his feet, looking at her eyes as he spoke. “However, anger never solves anything. It just makes things worse.”
“Wise words.” The two of them turned to the white princess, who walked quietly toward them.

As she started to walk, however, the prince suddenly found the upper shelf of the library very interesting. More noticeable was the deep blush that he wore. She instantly knew why, for her feminine charms were once qualified as “perfect”. Now, seeing the prince with amnesia, she realized that he was rather uncomfortable around her. Which had been even more surprising.

The few times they saw each other were on official meetings, to discuss matters about the kingdom. However, on those times, there were a few moments when she noted him ogling her, stripping her in his mind. Not that it was the first time. Yet, he reacted different, trying to be courteous, trying not to offend her.

She instantly got happy at the finding of her life.
“You’re being a true gentlecolt! I knew you would go back to how you were in the beginning!” She said as she hugged him tightly, accidentally burying him on her cleavage. The three of them, Twilight, Luna and even the prince gasped as Celestia was happy with just holding him in there, resting her head on his while his face remained buried in between her breasts.

Mark, though he was officially living every man's dream, started to flail his arms in a desperate attempt to get out of her embarrassing embrace. This caused Celestia to notice his distress and paused for a second.
“Blueblood! Are you alright!?” She asked while pulling his face from his cleavage.

Finally free, the prince took long breaths, trying to recover from the shock. As embarrassing as it might have been, it was still pleasurable, which was the why he was shocked. Never in his life he thought about being pushed into such a huge cleavage.

Pushing aside those thoughts, he straightened before turning to the white princess.
“Yes… I’m fine… Just took me by surprise.” He said, trying to hide his arousal. Vain attempt, for a deep blush could be seen on his face, as well as he tried to avoid the princess’ tempting sight.

The other princesses saw this, but they couldn’t do anything since he didn’t do anything bad, like pouncing on her or something else. He just stood in there, trying to recover from the shock.

After a few minutes, he finally turned to the other two princesses, who had been standing in the same place, watching him. Deciding to start a conversation, he walked toward them.
“So… You already know me. But I can’t remember you.” He said, gesturing to all of them. “Would you mind reminding me what your names are, please?”

Seeing as what he was saying was true, each of them made their presentations as the prince analyzed them.
“I co-rule this land with my sister here. My name is Celestia.”
“She certainly has a celestial bod- NONONONO! Stay focused!”
“Our name is Luna, ruler of the night. But you shall address us as princess.”
“Better be careful with this one. She seems rude. But, she also has that hourglass figu- NONONONO!”
“My name is Twilight Sparkle. Former element of magic and princess of friendship.”
“The easily angry one. Though, she seems kind. Not as well endowed as the other- CRAP! FOCUS!”

The princesses noted his annoyed look. Puzzled as for why he had that look they all took a step closer.
“Blueblood? Are you feeling alright?”
“Hm? Oh, yes. I’m okay.” The prince said, still avoiding their sights.

Meanwhile, Luna was having a hard time trying not to hit him. She did note the stares he gave them while they were presenting themselves. However, seeing as how he was trying hard not to stare, she just waited for the right moment.

After a few minutes, the prince sighed as he finally relaxed while being around with them. He just turned and stared at them, trying to keep his eyes above their necks.
“Alright, princesses.” He bowed before them before continuing his question. “You are the rulers here. Alright, I get it. But I have a question. At this moment, I know that my name is Blueblood. Am I right?”
“Actually... ” The white mare took a step in front of him, a reminiscing look on her face. “Your real name is Regius sanguinis.”

The prince just looked at her with a deadpan look before chuckling at himself.
“... Huh. Latin for Royal Blood? Is that seriously my name?”
“Yes. A couple years ago, you asked for your name to be changed. Now, you are Caeruleo sanguinis.”
“Blue blood...” The prince said, suddenly realizing something. “I had a lot of ego, right?” He asked as he sat down next to the window again.

Celestia lowered her head as she remembered all those times, where he wouldn’t listen to her.
“Yes… indeed, you had.” She said as she got closer to him, putting a hand on his shoulder. The prince turned to her, seeing her smile. “But I sense no more of that pride on you.”

Mark felt touched by her words. It seemed like forever since anyone told him those words. Even in his own world, not many people said things like those to him. He smiled back at her as she kept her hand on his shoulder.

Suddenly, the blue princess cleared her throat. Both, the prince and the white princess turned to her with a puzzled look.
“... Dearest nephew.” Luna didn’t even try to hide her disdain toward him. “Thou shalt excuse us, for we need to rest to recover our strengths.”
“Yes. The so appreciated sleep. I understand.” The prince said, getting up and walking toward Redheart. “Have a nice sleep...” He bowed before them before continuing. “... Princesses.”

With that, he finally exited the room. Celestia and Twilight started to talk about his behavior, especially on his recently acquired kindness and wisdom.

However, as they kept talking about him, Luna headed toward the balcony.
“Lulu? Where are you going?” Celestia asked as she noticed her sister glancing to the night’s sky.
“We need to ensure our subjects’ dreams. I’ll come back later.”

Not saying anything else, she took off flying. She did tell the truth, she was going to inspect her dear subjects’ dreams. However, she also wanted to see other pony’s dream. One that she was suspicious of.

At the lower floor of the house in which the princesses were sleeping, Redheart and the prince stood at the lower part of the library.
“I really can’t thank you enough for helping me back there. The princesses seemed ready to kill me, if not for you...” He said as he leaned back in the large couch, which was going to be his bed that night.
“Oh, don’t worry, prince. It was an honor to defend my prince.”

The prince grinned at her joke. Suddenly, the prince came with a question.
“Hey, where are you going to sleep?”
“I want to go home to get some sleep. If I stay, I fear that I won’t catch any at all.” She said, giving him a sly smile.

The prince just chuckled at her demeanor.
“Well… I’ll escort you to your home, then.” The prince said, already heading out. However, Redheart put a finger on his chest.
“As much as I’d like you to follow me to my home to get some fun, I’d rather have you staying in here. You know, to keep an eye on the princesses.”

The prince was about to complain, but he saw that she was right. If he was going to try and gain the princesses favor, he might as well stay to take care of them at a certain distance.

Therefore, he just sighed, waving her goodbye. Redheart, keeping her bedroom eyes, adding a tempting sway to her hips as she walked away.

Seeing as he had nothing else to do, he turned to the couch and sat down, almost instantly stretching all over it, getting comfortable to get some sleep. After all, it had been a very long and tiring day.

As he finally closed his eyes, soft snores started to sound. Hearing this, a shadow creeped from the darkness in the room toward the prince. Getting closer to the light, the form of princess Luna showed up, looking at the prince below her with a cold and analyzing look.
“Let’s see what you really are… ” Her hand stretched until it touched the prince’s forehead, a blue shine covering it. “... When you face your worst nightmares.”

With that, she closed her eyes, entering into the realm of dreams inside the prince’s head.

I'm sorry for the huge delay (this was supposed to be posted last Friday), but March 15 reached me, and with that, I was terribly busy, being with my family and whatnot.
However, here is it.
(Fun fact: I showed this to my elder sister. This is what she said.)
