Ch20 - 9 - A Gentle Touch
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Now, I hope we have heard all the accusations of the visiting king?" Twilight didn't really want to rub it in, but Gruff had been just about the most terrible guest she had ever had. The mare pondered on some of her guests, but nodded to herself.
King Gruff sat looking petulant, his mind raced through all the little avenues of how he could regain face in this, and possibly the stunning white bitch he desired too. He glared at the alicorn princess.
"Excellent!" Twilight banged her gavel with a smile. "Now, Please Do, I understand your client wishes to press charges against His Highness?"
"She most certainly is, but I think the charges could be… forgotten, if His Royal Highness King Gruff kept at least ten miles away from Rarity Belle at all times." Please tapped a bundle of papers with a hoof as she pushed them forward. "All perfectly legal and ready to sign, she would so deeply wish not to create an international incident here with this."
The gears worked quickly in Twilight Sparkle's head. "Would this suit you, Your Highness? We could see what laws you have actually broken under Equestrian Law?"
Gruff snarled a little under his breath and stalked over to where Please Do had her papers neatly arrayed. Spitting in his paw he planted it down in the middle of the page. "That do, stupid pony?"
Please beamed, showing off her mouth cutlery to excellent effect. "It is your mark and I am sure the court would accept it?" She looked up to Twilight. In that moment, she felt all kinds of delight from the presiding alicorn—it was obvious to Please that she knew what this meant.
"A King's word is his honor, and his mark is his word." Twilight gave a nod, her eyes closing due to her wide smile. "Court adjourned, thank you everypony for attending. Now, King Gruff, by your honor you must take yourself ten miles from Rarity Belle's presence."
The look of shock hit not just Gruff's face but, Twilight noticed, also Prince Elijah's. "The accord…" Gruff looked to Celestia, saw no help there, and looked to the judges. "We have to stop the ponies arming themselves with monsters, they will overpower us all!"
Ember stretched, showing off her claws, teeth, wings—even the pitch black one that she had Gel to thank for—and finally looked back. "I have met nice changelings, I have today met two vamponies, but I don't see any monsters here, well, maybe one." She grinned at the King.
Gruff looked around, eyes used to sycophants and yes-dogs finding neither. "But I…" Anger started to swell in him and started to swing a balled paw at the black monster in front of him. It was like his fist hit a wall, he stared at it. It was glowing gold.
"I think, King Gruff, you have made your thoughts well known. I will forward any relevant documents to you, about what we decide here." Princess Celestia, her horn alight with the power that moved the sun, smiled serenely at the canine. When she was sure he was done trying stupid things, she let go and gestured with a wing to the door of the castle.
Her knew he had lost, but being the first time in his life such a thing had happened hurt the diamond dog, he still wanted to lash out but he wouldn't have a hope of it with the pony leaders here. So he gritted his teeth, put one foot in front of another and marched from the castle.
Twilight suppressed the urge to bang her gavel at all the cheering, she had adjourned court already. Setting the wooden hammer down on its side, she stepped back off the lectern. Trotting over to Celestia she felt all the stress of the day pour from her as a white wing stretched itself down her side. "I don't want your job."
"Somepony has to do it, Princess Twilight Sparkle." Celestia half-grinned at the mare's reluctance. "You did a fine job and I am quite proud of you. You showed not just our ponies, but our visitors, that we are above being tyrants who always get what they want, however they want it."
"I really wanted to punish him…" Twilight was suddenly wrapped in soft, white, furry arms. "Rarity?"
"Thank you, Twilight, for sitting through that ghastly mutt's accusations." Rarity had her eyes closed, a few tears coming from them. "His paws were-" She froze suddenly, spotting the only other diamond dog in the room looking at her. "I have to go."
Gel spotted Rarity coming closer and stepped between her and Growl. "Rarity, you don't have…" The stallion trailed off, he saw the look of determination in the pregnant dog's eyes. "I won't stop you, Rarity Belle, unless you ask me to."
"I need to talk to him." Rarity crossed her arms, a pose she found herself doing more often of late when she wanted to protect herself from a confrontation. "But don't leave us…" A black, hole-filled hoof lifted and brushed her cheek, Rarity couldn't stop from blushing a little. "Thank you, Gel."
Growl knew he was in for it now. "Pony… Rarity…" He had, he hoped, at least partly made up for what he had done to her. "You safe now from bad brat-king?" What he didn't expect was a hug. His head lifted, but this wasn't the kind of hug that involved kissing.
"Thank you, Growl. You have taken a step toward redeeming yourself." Rarity couldn't believe she was touching him, it didn't feel terrible, like she thought it would. "I don't think I can forgive you for what you did, not ever. But as long as you never do that to a pony again, I can tolerate you."
For a moment the diamond dog thought to better his situation by talking, but as his mouth opened and closed a few times, what little part of him that knew what he had done was really wrong choked him. "Rarity, I go. You keep pups?"
The question startled Rarity, who leg go of the oddly comforting, but still a little awkward hug, and stepped back. "Of course I will, Growl. They will grow up, live their lives, and when it is time they will be told what their father did. What you did." Rarity took a deep breath and stepped back further. "You should go now." A black shape moved back between them, Gel intruding as he thought he should. "Are you always going to be my knight?"
"I can't help it, a group of ponies showed me how to tell the right thing from the wrong thing and I think it stuck." Gel turned to Growl. "You have a choice, since you are acting like a gentlecolt. Leave on your own feet or I can fly you again?"
"I go!" Growl turned and started walking out, tail tucked between his legs. He spared one look back at Rarity, at his pony. "One day…"
"Insufferable!" Mademoiselle was storming around the room. "She made me admit, before all the ponies of the town-"
"That you killed ponies?" Sunny Days was laying on her bed, watching the vampony stalk around her room. "You did, you don't anymore." She smiled up at the thestral that seemed almost like a force of nature.
"She wanted every dirty detail, but I wouldn't give it all, I just-" Lips silenced the vampony this time. In her anger she hadn't even registered her lover getting up or moving closer. Those lips, though, tasted of life, of pleasure, of some of the best things the world had to offer. "Mmmm." Anger poured from her as she felt her wings relax and hang free of her back. When the unicorn broke the kiss, she was almost completely disarmed of her fury.
"Better?" Sunny smiled brightly, her demeanor that of her namesake. "Did I tell you I got a job?" She bounced in place a little.
Stepping closer to Sunny, Maddie lifted one wing over the bright-colored mare. "You did? Dare I ask what my little Sunflower will be doing with her days?"
"Not sleeping anymore." Sunny rubbed her snout along Maddie's, her tongue pushing out to trace the powerful fangs, deliberately pressing around the tip until some blood leaked from her. Giving her lover a taste of what was to come, Sunny drew back. "This is a job I can do at whenever I want. You are looking at a maid for the Castle of Friendship."
"We are, both of us, this Princess' servants, then?" Maddie sucked at her fang until not a hint of the flavor of blood was left. "I must admit, of all the situations I have been in, being able to cook, having a filly I can teach not only how to be a good vampony but how to cook… combined with a very attentive lover—it is not a terrible one. She binds with the nicest, and softest of ropes."
"Princess Twilight? Oh no, it was her Head Maid, Starry Field." Sunny turned and fell sideways onto the bed, stretching and rolling to her back. "I have always gone where I pleased, followed my heart to where it called me. My heart, now," Sunny turned her head to look directly at the vampony, "is living in the basement of a castle."
"Tell me, my Sunflower, just tell me where we are going and I will follow you." Maddie climbed up onto the bed but just as she was bringing her hoof up to her lover's belly she felt a presence behind her, something thick pressing to her entrance. "What-" Unable to say another word, Mademoiselle tilted her head back and starred into the unicorn's eyes, spotting her lit horn as it drove a shaft of magic into her.
"Speechless? And to think, all the talk of dealing with monsters and here I defeat a powerful vampony with a spell any filly could… and likely does, learn." Sunny focused her spell, drawing the shape back and shoving it forwards again. "Pick a spot, my delicious little bat." She began to drive the thick shape in deeper and deeper, bucking mentally into the vampony above her.
Maddie was lost to her lover's careful work, her brain telling the rest of her to just go along with the fun and, without saying a word, she grabbed Sunny's hoof and turned, rolling to have her back to the mare, pulling that one leg over herself. In a swift and smooth move, she bit down into the leg.
Suddenly, Sunny was very happy she had worked the spell so it would keep going if she lost focus, because she certainly was in no position to control her magic anymore. Crying out in bliss as she felt her vitae flow slowly into her lover, nothing but pleasure wracked her body. She bucked and squirmed, finally leaning forward and biting down on Maddie's shoulder.
The world narrowed as the shaft claiming Maddie seemed to become relentless, driving in and out. She focused on the glorious pleasure while her vampony powers fed the same back to the mare she fed from. The teeth at her shoulder clenched tighter and she shuddered as the pressure wave building exploded out, thundering through her. She bucked into the magical dong, spiting herself on the thing as it drove her to repeated waves of pleasure.
Sunny trembled, her own body matching the pleasure her magic gave her lover. Maddie fed her every climax, every aftershock, through the bond of a vampony and their donor. It couldn't last forever, though, nothing ever did. With a final groan Sunny felt her leg released, the lightning still sparking through her every nerve. She squirmed and licked at Mademoiselle's shoulder, where she had bitten. "S-S-Sunny…" Maddie's voice stirred the other mare from the torpor she was almost in. "P-P-Please… stop…"
Jerking up, Sunny giggled and with a mental touch canceled the spell. Immediately Maddie slumped back against the unicorn, her body released from the constant stuffing she had been taking. No more words were needed, both mares were sated beyond words could express.
Discord blipped into being. "Fluttershy! We have been missing our little-" He froze. It wasn't often the Lord of Chaos, Master of Mayhem, the… well, he was gobsmacked.
"Oh, hello Discord." Fluttershy was laying on her couch, on her side, a little filly nuzzled in under her back leg, suckling away. "We have been missing them lately, haven't we?"
"A foal? How… pony of you." Discord finally got his faculties in order. "I almost dread to ask, but should I be chasing a stallion down with hot irons or a shotgun?" The front door of Fluttershy's house opened and two discords, in hunting gear, poked their heads in. "Hey, we dun found him!"
"No!" The word was soft, but a lot more firm than Discord had ever heard the mare use before. "Discord, you leave Gel Pattern alone!" Even Fluttershy was amazed at her outburst. She felt the nursing little mouth let go and looked down to see Slipper looking up at her with concern on her tiny face. "Oh, don't worry, your daddy is safe." She reached a wing down to rub the filly's head. "Isn't that right, Discord?"
"Spoilsport…" Discord snapped a finger, a tea-set appearing. "I suppose you will be spending more time with…"
"With Slipper, yes, Discord." Fluttershy slumped back as the filly went back to her meal. "I didn't plan for her, but she is a wonderful part of my life."
Scowling a little at the serene look on the pegasus' face, Discord gave a sigh and poured the tea. "When motherly instincts attack, next on channel-" He sipped some tea and smiled around the cup.
Reaching out a wing to her own cup, Fluttershy looked up at her friend. "Just because I have a foal doesn't mean we can't have our tea and chat." She sipped the tea and gave a sigh. "Thank you, Discord."
"Thank me? For what?" The draconequus blinked in surprise. "All I did was come here and-" A little snout had bumped his leg and he blinked down at the little filly. A claw that could rip holes in reality reached down, before he could think about it, and gently rubbed the filly behind one ear.
Fluttershy smiled wider and relaxed, tugging her leg up to maintain her modesty. Slipper had won herself a new friend, and one that certainly reciprocated that friendship.
Author's Note
Standing proud, looking every bit the alicorn princess she was, Twilight Sparkle shuddered and squirmed. Her mouth opened, even as her eyes seemed to roll back. "Sorry to have to answer you like this." The voice was Twilight's, but the mare certainly was acting strange. "I haven't run into that pony again, I don't know if I really want to. I have a lot to apologize for, from those days."
The form of the princess seemed to shudder again and, sounding a lot wilder, Twilight whines. "Please Gel, deeper! Fill all of-" The voice cut off again, leaving a smiling alicorn to wink.
