Sails of Love

(Disclaimer: This chapter contains mild bondage.)

Rarity was living the life. She was basking in the sun after a long week of work, enjoying the benefits of her recent explosion into a new scene. Perle was true to her word and soon some of her designs appeared in her collection, making the Equestria only fashionista famous outside her home. The sun was shining down through the cloudless sky while the cool sea breezes kept her body comfortably cool. She levitated a glass of wine to her lips. This was the life. She started feeling a bit dizzy after staying out so long so she brought her glass inside her newest friend. Calme Orage currently did not show himself. She had learned that the image was weaker in the daylight. He was still around though, doing his work and enjoying the sun. In the week she actually owned the yacht, Rarity had learned much. For example the he was powered by the sun. Even the weakest ray could power his magic but when the weather was bad for a long time, he had reserves saved in crystals in the lower deck. The interior was nice and cool. One of the gems filled the room with cool air to shield her from the sun. Then she entered the bedroom and closed the door. The mood lighting kicked in as she gracefully laid down on the bad. Siping from her wine again as she layed on her belly.
“Orage could you give me a massage. And no fooling around this time I want to ask some questions.”
“Whatever my Lady wishes.” came the smooth voice of the projection that appeared. He actually sounded disappointed. She giggled lightly.
“Don’t feel disappointed dear, we can have fun later.”

She felt the magic field envelop her as it carefully started working on her muscles. She let out a pleased sigh as she felt the tension in her muscles disappear. Creating new designs and actually making them for models she never met was hard work. Her muscles felt so tense after moving and hoof sewing so many little details. Her magic helped a lot but still, tension built up.
“So Orage, you told me you have different... uhm settings. What can you actually do?”
“I can fulfill some fetishes. Im capable of bondage play, changing my form to other creatures. Griffins, diamond dogs, mules, goats, and smaller drakes, also some more...how should I say... special ones.”

He did not stop the work on her muscles as he was talking. Ideas floated into her head. But most of them were disregarded. She wasn’t really into most of the things he explained. Yet she might know somepony who would be.
“You mentioned bondage. How does that work?”
“I can fulfil the role of either the dominant or the submissive party. As you know i can create magical fields. I can actually use them to imitate a body”
“Has Perle ever tried out this feature?”
He laughed a bit while working on her back.
“Thats confident my Lady it's only...”
He couldn’t finish when he saw the big puppy eyes that the mare was making.
Laughing, he continued:
“But how can I say no to you my Lady. She asked me and we tried it both ways but she didn’t enjoy it. Not many ponies do.”
She thought about the things she heard. An idea was forming in her head that could help one of her friends with a small problem.
The plan was made, she needed to finish that special order she wanted. But first, something else. She smiled and slowly turned around to lay on her back. Orage looked at her with a questioning look before she spoke:
“I think I deserve some fun now.”
With a smile he replied:
“Your wish is my command.“

Applejack was having a good day. The market was busy and a lot of ponies were buying apples. Some just to have a light snack and others, who had plans for bigger dinners. The farm pony was happy that she could help them out with the fruits of her labour. She was setting up some apples in a neat little pyramid, when a certain white unicorn friend of hers pulled up to her.
“Fine day to you Rarity. Here to buy some apples?”
The fashionista gave a small smile as she walked around the orange pony, before she stopped with the smile getting bigger.
“I was just checking your measurements my dear. I currently don’t need apples.”
“Mah measurements? What the hay you need those for?”
“Oh im already done with the project, I needed them for. I just wanted to check if it would fit.”
Applejack was now more than confused. She knew that her friend was all high and classy and thought weird things were normal but this was just plain strange.

“We already talked about this Sugar Cube. I wont model for you.”
Rarity giggled as she stopped in front the farm pony.
“Its an order you made way back dear. Something special that you wanted to try out. I just finally had the inspiration and the materials to make it.”
“I don’t reckon I remember ordering anything from...”
She stopped as realization hit her, eyes widened as the blood started going to her head. She couldn’t meet the eyes of the smiling unicorn.
“I made no order. You must have mistaken me for another pony.”
“Dear don’t worry I will keep your secret. This is something so personal that even I know that this should not be revealed.”

“It was probably a lot of bits to make it. So what about...you know...forget about it and just sell it to some hoity toity rich pony?”
Rarity shook her head and actually looked at AJ with a hurt expression.
“Dear you hurt me by thinking about bits. For my friends I'm more then happy to do these things. So its almost free of charge.”
“Almost free?”
“Well as we know this little hobby won't work alone. And I have a very trustworthy colt friend who would be more then happy to give you the experience you want. He has actual training in this, so it will be as pleasant as it can get.”
Applejack was drilling a hole in the ground with her eyes. She fiddled with her hooves then looked up at her friend with an apple red face. She spoke in the lowest of voices.
“And what do you want for this favor?”
“Me my dear? I want to watch.”
A silent and shameful nod was her answer.

Applejack was a nervous wreck from that moment. Events went on without her realizing them. Her thoughts wandered and she couldn’t focus on anything. Many badly bucked trees resulted in as many apples falling on her head. Big Mac actually was worried about her, but she assured her big brother that she was just thinking too much about stuff. The colt gave her a questioning look, but he left it at that. The nights were even worse. Even after so much work her mind was too restless. Thoughts about a certain slumber party where a question was asked. A question that lead to the events now.

--------------------oooooOOOOOooooo--------------------

It was a quiet night in the treehouse. This was Twilights second slumber party and it went so much better than the previous one. The three ponies actually enjoyed the night and AJ had to admit that Rarity could be good company. She was also restless on that night. She wanted to ask her friend a question. A question that shamed her deeply. Rarity had to know the answer but she was just so darned afraid to ask. Finally she gathered up her courage and carefully nudged the unicorn out of her sleep. She looked angrily at the farm pony before her expression changed. Applejack looked worried.
“What's wrong dear?”
AJ gulped, her throat was dry.
“I have something to ask you. Something that might sound strange and embarrassing. And this must never be told to anyone. You have to Pinkie Pie swear that you will never reveal it.”
Rarity never heard her friend so nervous before. She made the gestures and sang the little silly song.

After she finished, she saw some tension leave the orange mare for the first time.
“Its about something I...something I have been feeling. You remember the time when Trixie was here?”
Rarity just nodded. That ghastly pony was responsible for making her mane green. The memory still made her feel uneasy.
“You remember how she beat me at my own game? Well Ah...it was strange but somehow the shame and the rope... it...it felt good.”
Rarity only gasped. This was totally different of what she was expecting. A crush maybe, some little secret but this was really something else.
“I was humiliated before all of ya and still it kinda felt good. Getting beaten like that. Am Ah strange, maybe sick? Ah found these books about ropes and and they made me think. Ah don’t know wha...”
She couldn’t finish. Rarity went close and hugged her friend who was dealing with emotions she never felt before.

She gently stroked her mane and her answer was quiet and calming, like a mother to her foal.
“Nothing is wrong dear. Actually a lot of ponies like things like that. Many of them talk about it as something even more intimate then lovemaking. You are completely normal.”
“But it hurt. And yet the rope...”
“I know, I know my dear. What about this. I’ll make you something that would be a better start. You shouldn’t be ashamed about the things that make you feel good.”
Applejack nodded into her friends mane before she broke the hug. They both went back under the blankets.
“Rarity, Thank you.”

--------------------oooooOOOOOooooo--------------------

The day came. Somehow she slept through the night, yet strange dreams haunted her. In the morning she felt the sweat on her coat. The sheet were all tangled around her limbs and she kicked them off. Then she smelt something different, not the salty smell of sweat. She looked down and immediately knew what the origin was. The orange mare grabbed her sheets in a hurry and brought them outside to the well with the wash basin. She hurriedly washed them and hung them out to dry. After that came her own cold shower. It freshened her up just enough to face the day. After breakfast and some small goodbyes, she headed out to meet her friend at the train station.

The long walk to town didn’t help her uneasiness. She knew that she could still turn back now, ignore the invite and just leave it at that, but it still nagged her. Deep down she wanted this, craved this. Sometime later she reached the town. Her head was so full that barely any other idea could find place. The station was almost completely bare, except for one train with very few carts. Before one of them she saw Rarity encouraging a colt to pack a large bag into the cart. AJ felt her ears burn as she walked closer to her friend. The unicorn noticed her and gave a gentle smile.
“Morning dear. Do you feel alright? You look kinda distraught.”
“Kinda had some bad dreams. But Ahm fine no need to worry about me.”
Rarity went close to her friend and gently touched her shoulder.
“Don’t worry dear, you can trust me.”
Her eyes were sincere. The pony that loved her gossip the most learned a valuable lesson after the whole Gabby Gums incident so she knew exactly how this could destroy Applejack if this got out. She gave a bit to the pony who brought her bag into the cart, a reassuring smile to Applejack and led her inside.

The trip was uneventful. Some small talk was made but it barely eased the tension. After a bit AJ finally gathered the courage to ask some of the important questions.
“The colt you mentioned. Who is he?”
Rarity smiled mischievously as she answered.
“He is an odd one, but you can trust him completely. The only thing I can say for sure is that you will be surprised.”
“Also you watching. It’s a bit... well, a bit strange. You do know I'm not interested in mares.”
The white mare was having way too much fun with this. That awkward way AJ asked the questions and how she tried to hide her nervousness. She was just too cute for her. Rarity knew that the farm pony was only interested in colts. Rarity wasn’t so old fashioned. She worked with bodies and measurements. She learned how to see the beauty in both forms. Although she still wished to meet that one special colt, she had no problem with some fun with the same gender from time to time.
“Don’t worry dear I will be only there to assist him with some tasks. Also the fact that your barn door doesn’t swing that way doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy what I will see.”
The red hue that took over the earth pony’s face was too priceless. She could just tease her all day, but she needed to behave herself. The day was young and the festivities would be glorious.

When they arrived, Applejack was kind enough to carry the bag that Rarity had brought. It wasn’t that heavy but it was full of items that the Earth pony couldn’t guess through the bag. The walk wasn’t that long. A nice trip through the harbor town. AJ took in the scenery. The different buildings, the smell of earth replaced with the salty smell of the sea. The creak of wood under her feet. Seeing ships around the harbor that were rocking with the gentle rhythm of the waves. Rarity lead her friend through a bunch of small ships to that one specific white yacht. They stopped next to it as the plank was lowered from an unseeable compartment. She led the way and the earth pony followed. On the deck she put down a bag while looking around and whistling.
“This is a mighty fine boat. Is it your friends?”
Rarity chuckled a bit then turned around with a really big hoof wave.
“This boat is mine dear. It was a gift I couldn’t refuse.”
AJ did not answer. She knew that Rarity had some rich pony friends but this was on a whole new level. This ship must have cost more bits than what they earn at the farm in a decade. She couldn’t take in all the sights, because her vision was filled with a dark blue maned colt. He had a pleasant smile. The farm pony had to admit, he was pleasant for the eye even though his posture was like one of those stuck up ponys. His voice didn’t make her think otherwise.
“Lady Rarity I'm happy to see you return, and Miss Applejack. Its a pleasure to finally meet you. Lady Rarity told me a lot about you.”
“Ah reckon she did.” She realized this was that special friend. She already felt her cheeks heat up. “Still Ah don’t know anything about you.”

Rarity interrupted gently and pulled the earth pony inside the cabin with the bag behind her in a magic field. The colt followed. The unicorn grabbed a bottle from the fridge and two glasses. She poured for both of them and offered one of the glasses to Applejack. Then motioned them to sit down. The crescent shaped sofa was comfy and supported them nicely.
“This is nice and all Rarity but Ah still don’t know who he is.”
“I know. But standing in the sun while I explain this won’t be this nice. His name is Calme Orage. And to put it bluntly, he is the yacht.”
Applejack looked at her friend with that special look that you give to crazy ponies. The exact one that asks them how many wheels do they miss on their cart.

“Pardon?”
“The ship you are on is very special. It was made by the best magic users of Prance to create a ship that had a personality. The body you see is an image created by the magic.”
“And how in tarnation will he do anything you promised?”
She realized what she had asked and immediately lowered her eyes. Orage motioned to Rarity who then nodded.
“Miss Applejack, as Lady Rarity mentioned I was created by the finest minds of Prance. I'm more than able to perform this duty, and I'm bound by my rules to not inflict any real harm, but it's only your decision that counts here.”
“Yes dear. Orage and I have talked about this matter for a while now. He is more then capable and the events here will never be told to anybody. This way you don’t have to worry about rumors and gossip.”

Applejack’s mind was pure chaos. The itch deep inside her was stronger and cried for release, while her mind was afraid and confused by this idea. To do things with a pony that didn’t really exist. She was nervous but she trusted Rarity. Since the start she supported her, gave her advice and even made whatever was in the bag, just to help her solve this puzzle in her mind and body. She drank the wine with one big gulp. The taste was too sweet for her but the warmness in her stomach helped a bit. She nodded at the pair.
“I trust you Rarity. How do we begin?”

The preparations were methodical. While Orage sailed himself out into the open ocean, Rarity helped her friend get ready for the occasion. A quick shower cleaned her coat and hair.The unicorn used her magic to comb and rebraid the golden strands of hair. The hat would stay off for the event. Then came the contents of the bag. Rarity brought up every item and told her what they were used for.
“Rarity are these made from leather? You know that's illegal, not to mention highly immoral.”
“Don’t worry dear its fake leather. Rubber enhanced with magic to make it feel and behave like leather. It's all safe don’t worry.”

The first item was a blindfold. The kind the earth pony used to see on her friend, but made out of the black fake leather. Then came a small round ball with two straps filled with holes. A ball gag she was told. Then came the leather suit. Four sleeves to cover her legs but to leave her shoulders and her flank bare and a special pantie made from the same material to cover her important parts. Then the rope. AJ was quite surprised. The rope even though it looked as sturdy as any rope she saw, was soft. Not like silk or any other fancy materials, but it was soft to her touch. Rarity explained that it was treated and boiled so it won’t cause harm. Then a small pot filled with some cream. A gift from Zecora that helped heal the body. Rarity explained that she got it to help some of her models when the clothes were too tight and left marks. Then came some rings and additional straps she did not know how they worked. A long sleek item was next, black as the rest of the items. A small handle with a long body with a square ical end part. Rarity told her it was a riding crop. A kind of whip that was made for ponies who were experimenting like her. Then came a metal bar called spreader, to keep her legs apart. The last item was kept from her sight in a small box. The unicorn helped her dress into the leather leggings. They fit snugly and her image in the mirror on the wall made her hot inside. Still her mind was nervous. After the small amount of clothing was on, Rarity looked at her.

“Are you ready dear?”
She wasn’t ready, not by a long shot, but she was already here. Dressed up and freshly bathed, she knew this is what she thought she wanted. The leggings just made the itch bigger.
“Ah reckon I'll be as ready as Ah get.”

Rarity smiled. Then she motioned Applejack to take place on the bed. She was lying there on her stomach, watching the door as Orage entered. He didn’t wear anything expect that calm smile. His smile got a little bigger when he noticed the orange mare. AJ couldn't keep her eyes on him as she felt her blush seep back in. The colt walked closer and grabbed the small black box with his magic. Rarity grabbed a bottle of wine with her glass and took a seat in the corner of the room. Orage stood right in front of her now.
“This is the last step. Once you put this on we will begin, and I will only stop when you are pleased or when your discomfort is too much. Not before.”
She looked down at the box. Do I want this? Do I really need this? She already knew the answer. Yes.
“Im ready. Please be gentle.”
“Of Course.”

The box was opened and a leather collar was removed from it. The shiny faux leather wasn’t the most important part. The small red metal tag with the symbol of three apples was. The magic levitated the collar to her neck the strap coiled around it and fastened. Not too tight just enough to keep it in place.
“From now on you can only speak, if I give you permission. And when you do, you will refer to me as master. Understood?”
Her mouth was dry. Her nervousness crept in and she barely could say the words. Her cheeks burned red now.
“Yes Master.”
Good girl.

Then the rope came into view. The next several minutes were him tying her up. He made orders where she should turn and how she should position herself. The ropes went under her front legs. Those were tightened to her body and her neck. The rope was wrapped around her body and it was tightened to the point that it was almost hard to breath. Every bit of rope on her body sent shivers up her spine. When it tightened she barely could keep herself contained. It felt strange. Her body felt hot, and constricted. The rope didn’t hurt but was still unpleasant, yet under that layer was something that made her excited. She had to turn on her back. He caressed her belly before putting the ropes over there. The touch was electrifying. Then his face turned downwards and she instinctively pulled her tail between her legs. He chuckled while he continued his work. She was bound. Her whole body was immobile. Breathing was a little bit harder and yet the feeling wasn’t bad. Then came the metal bar that was put between her back legs. She couldn’t close them anymore, the last thing covering her dignity was her tail. He smiled at her.
“I must do something about that pesky tail.”

She looked up with worry in her eye, as she saw one of the iron rings float out to be attached to the back of her collar. The other ring was attached to the base of her tail. They were bound together with a strap. She could not lower her tail anymore. Flexing the muscle tightened the collar around her neck. Now her flank and plot was exposed the last shreds of her dignity were hidden behind a small veil of leather.
“I love what I'm seeing here.”

His hoof touched one of her flanks, caressing it. She could do nothing. Her instinct to kick him away was bound down by the iron bar. She felt the hoof slowly creep closer to that last barrier. She felt her body strain as she could actually get a bit away from him. He grunted and she saw his calm face show annoyance.
“I see that you wish to be a bad girl.”
“Ahm no bad girl you were just too close to...”
She stopped when she saw the look in his eyes. He shook his head in disappointment. Another item was lifted from the ground. The gag. She wanted to protest but when she opened her mouth the magic fit it inside in a swift movement, the straps clasping together.
“Now after we took care of your mouth I think I should start your punishment soon.”

He raised the blindfold next. Her world was covered in darkness. She wanted to talk but her words only came out as grunts and groans. The gag kept her from talking and soon she learned the other thing that the gags did. She started to drool and no force kept it back. She felt the hoof on her flank again. It was stronger now and it was feeling up every bit of her rear. She felt crazy. She couldn’t see and yet she started feeling pleasure from the rough treatment.
“Now now. Your punishment. I believe you like old fashioned punishments don’t you?”
Even if she wanted to answer she couldn't. His hoof was off from her rear and she sighed in relief. Then she felt the smack. She couldn’t hold back the moan. The pain was so full of pleasure. The sting of the smack was overshadowed by a pleasure that she couldn’t describe. The hoof came down again and again. Each smack made her cry out more. After a few smacks he stopped and slowly started massaging her reddened flanks. Her breathing was hard, drool coming out of her mouth.

“Will you behave now?”
She nodded. He removed the gag with calm movements. She closed her mouth and licked her lips.
“Do you have anything to say?”
Her mouth opened slowly and her voice was barely a hush.
“Please more.”
“Speak up dear I can't hear you!”
“Please master, more!”
His voice was pleased.
“Good girl you are learning. You'll get your reward.”
The presence left her side and she almost called out, then she felt something return. A small cold feeling on her flank. She knew what it was, the crop. Every small touch sent a shiver up her spine. The small leather head moved around both of her flanks then she felt it move to the middle. She moaned out when the head touched the thin leather layer. He concentrated on that part for a bit then the crop came up, and the smack on her rear sent her into an orgasm. Her back arched in the bounds and the rope cut into her body filling her with a sweet ecstasy. Her mind was blank, then the crop came down again and again.

Meanwhile Rarity was having her own little party. The sight of that strong mare totally at the mercy of Orage was turning her on more and more. Her hooves were soaked in her own juices as she tried to find release. In the back of her mind she felt a bit jealous about all the attention that the colt was showing towards AJ and yet she couldn’t imagine herself being bound like that. She held back her moans but it was hard. Every moan from the earth pony sent pleasure through her. Her friends open mouth was just too inviting. She scooped closer. She pressed her lips into her friends and she reveled in the waves of her orgasm washing over her.

Applejack was more than surprised when she felt the wet and soft lips on hers. She knew it was Rarity and yet she didn’t mind. Her tongue danced around with the other ponies and she enjoyed it. The last bit of remorse was burned from her mind by the pain in her flanks and by the rope that was binding her. Orage stopped the whipping and was now covering her flanks with the cold ointment. It soothed the burning but left that sweet sourness. Then she felt his magic concentrate at her flanks again and felt that last wet berrier getting out of the way. She wanted it now more than anything.
“I hope you enjoyed your reward. But I think I'm still not satisfied. ”
Rarity broke the kiss. To let her friend breath and talk.
“Do you have any suggestions how you could serve me?”
Applejack’s mind was blank. The burning in her rear and the need of her flesh was overpowering any sense she had left.
“Take me master. Take me as much as you like”
“Good girl.”

She felt a weight on her back then something rubbed around her flank. It slowly moved closer and closer to her drenched nethers. Then it rubbed at her entrance for just a second before it was pushed in, in a swift motion. AJ cried out in pleasure. Her mouth hang open with every hard and strong thrust. Then he stopped. She raised her head her sight still stolen from her. She grunted not saying a word without his master's order. She tried to move her rear to make that delightful rod move again but the ropes prevented her from that.
“What should I do, what should I do? I heard you were a honest girl. Tell me what do you want?”
“Plough me master! Plough this bad girl as hard as you want! Please!”
“With pleasure.”
Then the movement started and the bliss returned.

Rarity was in total awe. The transformation from the strongest pony she knew to a pony who craved this and was so submissive, made her own pleasure rise. She watched attentively Where the two met. The room was filled with the sound of moaning and with the smell of sex and sweat. Orage moved fast and hard. He raised a hoof and smacked the bound ponys flank who cried out as her body stiffened under another orgasm. He continued for a while and she lost count of her own orgasms. Applejack stiffened again her breathing ragged her mouth open. He stopped and slowly pulled out. He removed the blindfold and the earth pony opened her eyes weakly.
“You did good my pet. You were a good girl. Sleep now, you deserve it.”
The ropes were magically loosened and removed from her body. The bar and the leather leggings were removed as her body floated in the air. Only the collar remained. She was put into the bed and the sheets were pulled on her. She fell asleep in seconds. Orage then turned to Rarity. She could see that the image still had his member erect and glistening. She could barely contain herself. He moved closer and she went under him. With careful licks she cleaned the magical appendage from the fluids of her friend. Then she layed down on her back legs open.
“Please don’t hold back.”
“As you wish my lady.”
