"Are you awake yet, darling? Really, you sleep in longer and longer every day."

Moon Dancer groaned and poked her snout out from under the covers. She could smell the bright sunlight outside. "Ughhh, what time is it?"

Hoofsteps coming closer gave the nerdy mare warning, but nothing could prepare her for Rarity yanking back the covers. "It is nearly nine in the morning. Come on Moon Dancer, you should have been at work nearly half an hour ago."

"I work in your shop!" Moon cracked her eyes open a fraction; and regretted it. "And my workbench is on the other side of that," she waved a hoof blindly, "wall. Okay, okay… just… if you value my sanity, make me some coffee…"

When Moon opened her eyes up, the alabaster "slave-driver" had left. "Oh thank Molestia… where is that spell…" She fell to all fours and walked, with more than one wobble, to the mirror. Flipping open her personal spellbook, she began to follow the instructions and, when the spell cast, she looked up and stared into her own eyes. The instant her pupils focused down to pinpricks she felt all the anger and rage at being woken up early, fade. "Oh that is the stuff. Now Moon Dancer, you are going to be the best employee ever, you are going to be nice to Rarity and," the blank stare the mare gave her own reflection curled up a little into a half smile, "do absolutely everything Rarity tells you."

It was agony, amazing agony, to lift her hoof up. With the powerful hypnosis spell in its "programming" mode, she shouldn't have been able to move, but the signal to the spell, to enter activation, was the stomping of a hoof. Moon strained and struggled but in the end it was all for naught.

Rarity walked into the room again, levitating a mug over to the mare. "Here you go, Moon. Drink this and you will have all the energy you need to last you the whole day."

"The whole day…" Moon's mind rushed around in a panic, Rarity had caught her in quite a vulnerable moment.

"Yes, darling, and when you are done making each enchantment," Rarity walked forward, knowing just what state her employee was in, "you will cream yourself with pleasure." She lifted her hoof and stomped it down.

Moon blinked, forgetting all the commands—consciously anyway—that she had been given. "Oh, coffee? Rarity, you are a goddess!" She sipped at the drink and her mind melted with delight. "Okay, bring on the day!"

Rarity snorted with delight and closed Moon's book, following her worker out into the store. "We have some big orders today. That cluster of gems for Cheerilee." Rarity giggled at that one. "I think that was a whole lot of 'hush' enchantments."

"Yeah yeah, single enchantment on a gem is easy. What are you mounting the gems on?" Moon Dancer plucked up her copy of the work order, spotting the mass of little gems at the top. "Don't you have that dancing costume for Sapphire Shores?"

"Oh come on Moon, it isn't cheating for a mare to have a little extra… focus." Rarity flipped through her list to find that particular one. " 'single mindedness' and 'intense focus'… you could put that on a headpiece?"

Moon, hearing the first half of her boss's words, felt an odd tingling and grinned. My spell is working, I can't even contemplate that as cheating now. "Headpiece? Yeah, make sure to use the good silk for the band, I can weave easier onto those."

Rarity levitated up the box of little gems and floated them over to Moon's desk. "I am sure you could do these as fast as you can."

"Thanks, and of course I will, why wouldn't I?" Moon opened the box and, as if to show off how easy the "hush" enchantment was to perform, she planted it rapidly into the gem and then- "Oh my…" Moon's eyes went wide, she lifted one hoof and crammed it into her mouth and screamed into it. Her body trembled and she had to cross her back legs at the rush of pleasure that pushed her all the way to orgasm in moments. She opened her snout and pulled out her hoof, groaning. "What… what did you do!"

"You were struggling to bang your hoof again." Rarity stepped over to the best enchanter in Equestria. "I gave you a few extra commands, then finished the spell for you." She smiled, giving Moon Dancer the most intensely dominant look the nerdy unicorn had ever gotten. "Now, keep working."

"Yes, Rarity." Moon almost came again just from how good it felt, she pondered lowering a hoof to stroke herself a little, but rejected the idea immediately. Best employees don't do such things. She grinned as she picked up the next gem, setting it into the holder. As she poured the enchantment into the little stone she groaned and squirmed. Picking another she quickly swapped them and enchanted gems again and again, her brain having more and more trouble focusing on anything that wasn't strictly required to "be the best employee."

Moon struggled, fighting her desire again and again with the iron grip the spell had on her. Her attention was dragged away from the last little gem, however, by a huge pink diamond landing on her desk. "That… that is amazing!" She looked up to see Pinkie Pie, grinning widely.

"Is it? I found it in a rock." Pinkie looked at the little pile of gems that Moon had beside her. "What do these do?" She picked one up and held it in her hoof and opened her mouth to start talking. The universe itself almost seemed to shake—no sound came forth—until the tiny gem shattered. "… and then I want it in my… oh…"

"Pinkie!" Moon sighed, realizing she was going to have to make another of the little enchantments. "Okay, Pinkie." A pony had to, after all, just accept Pinkie. "What do you want on this gem?"

Pinkie reached for another of the "hush" gems, but her hoof was quickly blocked by Moon carefully protecting her work. "Well, you know how much I love that toy you made me, I want another of those, but bigger!"

"Another vibrator, that last one was made from magic-bonded steel! What did you do to it?" Rubbing her hoof against her head, Moon didn't realize what she had done until it was too late. She now had a cow-lick from the decidedly damp hoof.

"I squeezed too hard…" Pinkie looked sad suddenly. "Well, you know how it is, I grew up on a rock farm, if you weren't strong you couldn't grow up on a rock farm, you would just fall off to the side and not break any rocks."

"What did you squeeze it with?" Moon Dancer knew what the answer was going to be, even as Pinkie started to turn around, her tail lifting up and to the side. "NO! I get it! Right, stronger. This gem though, it could have a swarm of enchantments on it." Moon looked at it wistfully, but then another landed beside it, just as big. "What is… where are you getting these?"

"Here and there, mostly not here, but not over there." Pinkie pointed to the other corner of Rarity's boutique. "So, that one is for the enchantments, and that one is for payment." Pinkie pointed between them, grinning.

Just as Moon opened her snout to say something, Rarity rushed over. "Of course, darling. That will work fine. If you ever want to buy other things, just bring more gems." Her eyes were locked on the two huge diamonds. "In fact, I owe you a dress for this." Rarity couldn't bring herself to cheat her friend out of the gem's worth. "I insist."

Pinkie wrapped Rarity in a big hug. "You are the best!" She squeezed the unicorn until she got hugged back. "Can I pick that up tomorrow?" She looked back to Moon.

Examining the diamond, Moon pondered her options. "It will be tight…"

"Oh, I hope so." Pinkie grinned widely.

Moon blinked a few times. She is Pinkie, you have been here long enough to be used to this. "Err… uh…" I will never get used to this. "The day after, I want to make sure I get this one harder than ever."

"Two days! What will I do?" Pinkie bolted for the door and was soon out in the street.

Closing the door behind her friend, Rarity gave a sigh. "Probably Big McIntosh Apple, if he has recovered since last time." She tilted her head over and gave Moon Dancer a wink.

"You're the worst, you know that?" Moon was giggling though. "Got another small blue gem? Pinkie… 'Pinkied' the last one." She put the one unenchated gem she had back on the cradle and started enchanting it. "Oh damnIforgot!" One forehoof jumped up into Moon's mouth to silence herself, the other rubbed her vulva vigorously. The taste of her own musk rushed over her palate, leaving the delicious orgasm to rifle through her body with extra gusto.

"Give me your collar." Rarity's voice was focused, aimed right into Moon Dancer's ear. "Unbuckle it, you can remember you wear it for the next ten minutes."

Moon's eyes went wide. Her trembling hooves reached up, finding the collar she could never remember she wore. Unbuckling it, she slid it off her neck and down on the table. Realization rushed in on Moon Dancer, Rarity had offered her the collar, it helped her focus and think. "Do I need to add more to this?"

"Yes, darling." Rarity kissed Moon's cheek. "And I think you know what-" Rarity's lips were suddenly locked in a passionate kiss with Moon's. Neither mare held back from the embrace and the intensity of the moment. But it passed. "You need to add a short term enchantment, you need to be able to forget the next two hours."

"Why?" Moon kissed Rarity again, breaking her lips free just as suddenly. "What am I doing?"

"You are doing work for our mistress, and then you have to go to Canterlot and deliver it, but also another creation for Molestia." Rarity nuzzled Moon's neck and cheek.

"One day, when we are free…" Moon lifted the collar up and set it on her little stand. She began to channel the short-term enchantment into it, part of her hated the collar, but another part knew it was required. The moment Moon was done, however, she opened her eyes and drew in a deep breath to moan.

Pressing her lips forward, Rarity kissed Moon, carrying on the touch longer and longer, even lowering her own hoof down, stroking her lover. Rarity didn't stop kissing and stroking until Moon Dancer had found another release. "Okay, relax Moon. Once mistress is done we can forget this stupid collar and you won't have to put on a charade to hide your real actions from that damn princess."

Moon Dancer reached out and lifted the collar back up. The thing was made of the finest silk, the richest dyes and, of course, had the most powerful enchantments known to ponykind. "No, you can make me a new one to wear." She closed the collar around her neck, feeling as the spells to hide their relationship settled back on her. Just before they finally took effect, she grinned. "For Luna."

"For Luna." Rarity repeated the words, then saw her lover's face adjust back into the normal mask. "We have a new order, Moon."

"What is it?" Moon had a feeling she was under a deep enchantment, but at the same time was the feeling that it was something she consented to.

"An enchantment banisher." Rarity placed a small staff of dark wood on the bench.

Moon whistled. "That is certainly the right wood for it, bespelled and from the Everfree. You really have authorization to make this?"

"Of course, from Princess Luna." The name of the alicorn echoed a little in Moon Dancer's head.

"Princess Luna authorized? Wow." Gathering up the magic needed for the spell, Moon tilted her head up one more time. "This will drain me, you know. For the rest of the day."

"I know, Moony." Rarity smiled at the mare and then blushed, realizing she had used a much more familiar name. "I am sure we should go to the spa after this."

Moon was already weaving the enchantment, burning her magic quickly to build and bind the thing. It took the better part of ten minutes to finally implant the staff with the enchantment, but it was successful. Lips pressed to Moon's just as the wave of pleasure slammed into her. She bucked and squirmed, blue magic gripping her and holding her in place as her boss kissed her.

Rarity pulled back from Moon, seeing her wide eyes slowly melt closed as the temporary enchantment stole time from the mare. Watching Moon Dancer waken from the "dream", Rarity asked, "So, we are going to the spa now, as I told you!"

"Ooh, I could really use a soak." Moon got up, a cool sensation in her nethers revealed her plot to be quite damp.
