All finished, everyone. I hope you enjoyed this story.

The Gift Of Love

11 months have passed since you arrived at Mount Aris and your relationship with the hippogriffs was growing better, especially with Queen Novo. It was obvious by this point that you and Novo were dating and no one could be happier than Princess Skystar.

You had no doubt that this is where you belong, especially since after your first trip to Seaquestria, Novo gave you your own necklace so you could pay a visit anytime you want. Whether it was on land or in the water, you were well respected by the civilians, especially Novo’s relatives.

Ocean Flow was always happy to make refreshments whenever you came down to pay her a visit. You openly told her how happy her sister made you and she was completely supportive of your relationship.

Recently, you learned that Terramar’s father, Sky Beak was amongst the seaponies who chose to turn back into a hippogriff after the Storm King was defeated. As the leader of Novo’s guards, it didn’t hurt that you spent some time sparring with him out in the training grounds. You were impressed by how tough he was, but you weren’t a slouch yourself. During most of your sparring sessions, it mostly ended in a draw.

While his mother stayed in Seaquestria and his father stayed on Mount Aris, Terramar chose to go back and forth. He wanted to spend equal amount of time with his parents so he wouldn’t have to choose who’s the favorite, showing he loves his parents very much.

As for your ghosts of the past, you were able to lay them to rest and move on with your life. Your fear of the ocean had also dissipated, bringing back your love for the ocean.

As close as you were to Novo, you could never replace her husband, just as she could never replace your wife and daughter. Nonetheless this didn’t keep the the two of you from showing affection to one another.

Pretty soon, your birthday had finally arrived and right now, everyone gathered around at the castle grounds, chatting with each other and enjoying the food. As usual, Skystar was bouncing around the castle grounds, excited for the big party. You had just finished up your stories of when you were in the navy to a couple of guards.

You clinked your cup of wine with the guards and took a sip before gripping your throat, but you chuckled instead of grunting in pain.

“It was only a sip, but it’s not so easy on the throat,” you said, smiling. The guards laughed and patted you on the back before Queen Novo steals you away.

“Okay there, Bellator, I think it’s time for you to open up your presents,” Novo said, taking you to the table where all the presents were. “We weren’t sure what you would like, so we tried to improvise on the gifts.”

“I see. Well, no matter what, it’s the thought that counts. So who goes first?” you asked.

“Skystar, come on over here, sweetie and give Bellator your gift,” Novo called out. Skystar froze up a bit and slowly approached you with a disappointed look, rather than a happy one. When she was close enough, she hung her head down.

“I... I’m sorry mom. I forgot to get a gift for him, I got a little sidetracked,” Skystar said. Queen Novo facepalmed herself. Though instead of scolding Skystar, you walked up and hugged her. Skystar gasped and didn’t understand why you did this.

“The greatest gift and honor… is having you for a daughter,” you said, making her smile again. She returned your hug with a hug of her own.

“Thank you so much... father,” Skystar replied. The crowd awed and clapped for you. Truth be told, ever since you’ve been dating Queen Novo, you started to think of Skystar as your own loving daughter and it wasn’t until now that you finally told her how you really felt.

After you broke the hug, you kissed Skystar on her forehead, making her giggle and stand back up on her hooves.

“Looks like you gave him a gift after all, sweetie,” Queen Novo said, hugging her daughter. “Now, Bellator, go ahead and open up your presents. You can’t keep the audience waiting.”

You chuckled, “Alright, Novo,” you replied. Without any further delay, you opened up each present one-by-one, impressed by what the citizens have gotten you. The guards all got you some weapons: a spear, a battle axe and a double-edged sword. The citizens got you a couple of new clothes for your closet and a couple of necklaces made from seashells. Others got creative and got you a couple of bottles of wine.

Another present you got was a set of body armor. Thanks to all the times you kept in shape, wearing the armor you’ve gotten was easy enough to carry.

“You look a little silly in the armor, but not as much as you look handsome,” Queen Novo said before giving you a peck on the cheek. She didn’t shy away from showing affection to you in public, and you didn’t mind either.

“Still, I like the design. It’s a perfect fit,” you replied with a chuckle.

After the party had ended, everyone, as well as you, helped clean up the castle grounds and you thanked everyone for the presents and the cake Queen Novo and Princess Skystar made for you. As soon as the castle grounds were cleaned up, you were confronted by Princess Skystar about something you said earlier.

“Umm... father?” Skystar asked.

“What is it?” you asked.

“Did you really mean it when you said that having me for a daughter was the best gift of all?” she asked.

“Of course. Why do you ask?” You noticed how she was beginning tearing up.

“Well, it’s just that I’ve never known what it was like to have a father of my own. When you said those words, it caught me off guard,” she said.

You sighed as you patted Skystar on her shoulder. “I can’t deny by this point that I’m in love with your mother, nor that I think of you as my daughter.” You led her to nearby couch and sat down.

“Speaking of which, you never told me how you lost your family. It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me what happened,” Skystar said.

“If we’re going to be family, we might as well not keep secrets from one another,” you said as you took a deep breath. “Back in my world, humans would use something we called cars for transportation to places that were too far to walk to. It was a rainy night and I was out on the ocean with my fellow soldiers. My family was heading home after they ate dinner. But when they were driving home, this driver in front of them put on his brakes too quickly and caused my wife to swerve out of control and hit a tree off-road.”

Skystar gasped and backed away with a claw over her mouth. “T-That’s horrible!” she said.

“I was still serving overseas, nowhere near them when the accident happened. I broke down afterwards because of the remorse to the point where they had to let me go. Three years later, I too got killed and somehow ended up here afterwards. The only good thing I got out of the whole thing was throwing the man who murdered my family behind bars,” you explained.

You brought Skystar into another hug. “I’m well aware that nothing will bring my wife or daughter back, but both you and your mother were able to help me back on my feet and help me move on with my life. From now on, you and your mother are my new family and I’m very grateful to be a part of it,” you said smiling down at the young hippogriff.

“T-Thank you... father,” Skystar replied before you stood and prepared to walk away.

Ever since you and Novo became a couple the two of you would occasionally meet on the balcony to watch the ocean together. The sound of the ocean waves drifting onto dry land and receding back into the sea. At the moment the beautiful queen was laying against you, gently nuzzling your chest with her beak.

“You’ve been a bit quiet for a while, honey. Aren’t you going to let your queen know how beautiful she looks today?” she asked. You used to find her ego to be annoying, but now it just made you smile.

“If you insist. With the sun setting in the distant horizon, the rays seem to make your whole body glow so brightly that even the sparkling waves are envious of your eternal beauty,” you said before kissing her cheek. You began rubbing her mane as you stared into her eyes.

No more words were said as the two of you took in the sight of the setting sun shining on the ocean. After a nice ten minutes, the sun had long disappeared and Novo decided to break the silence.

“Hate to leave you, but it’s time for mama here to take herself a nice bath.” She turned to walk away, but stopped as she felt your hands on her shoulders.

“How would you like to have some... company?” you whispered into her ear, making her shiver. Of all the things you and Novo have done since you started dating, bathing together wasn’t one of them.

“A-Are you sure?” she asked, to which you nodded. She didn’t tell you, but when her husband was still around, she would take baths with him all the time.

“I don’t mind sharing a bath with you, Novo. What do you say?” you asked still holding her shoulders.

“Well... alright then,” she answered before allowing you to take her claw so you could walk downstairs together.

Upon arriving at the bathhouse, the guards who stood by the door raised their eyebrows, but nonetheless opened the door without any questions. Both you and Novo no longer felt any awkwardness from this situation, even as you began undressing.

As you got into the water you took notice of Novo’s body for the first time. She had a gorgeous hourglass figure with enormous G-cup breasts and a plump, round ass sticking outwards. From your prospective, she looked like one of those models from the Las Vegas shows.

Novo stepped inside the water and leaned onto you. Aware that you had been gazing at her, she saw an opportunity to mess with you.

“If I didn’t know you better, I’d say you only wanted to take a bath so you could see your queen here naked,” she teased, sticking her ass out even more and bending over to give you a good view of her heaving breasts.

“Is there a problem with that, my queen?” you asked, quirking and eyebrow and smirking at her.

“Not at all, though, if you want to get a taste of my body, you’ll have to surprise me. I don’t care what it is, as long as I find it funny,” she said, posing all sexy for you.

With a devious smile, you grabbed Novo so you could pull her under the water with you. Novo surfaced herself, gasping for air. You joined her and smile.

The queen looked at you with an eyebrow raised as you began to snicker at her. The glare on her face turned into a sly smile and she pushed you back into the water. With that, the two of you were even and decided to begin washing yourselves.

Novo’s back touched your front as she allowed you to wash her front with your soapy hands. She moaned softly as you rubbed her from top to bottom, especially when she felt your hands move to her humongous breasts. Though the castle servants gave her massages almost each day, there were certain parts they were not allowed to touch.

“Consider yourself lucky that I’m allowing this, Bellator,” she sighed and placed a claw over the hand you were groping her with. “Just... be gentle with my big girls, they’re very sensitive because of their size.”

You nodded and kissed her on the cheek. Novo giggled at your affection and kissed you back. As you kept massaging Novo’s bust, she continued to let out soft moans. She felt herself almost losing herself and pressed her back against your muscular chest. Her breathing grew slightly loud, but not enough to let the guards outside hear you two.

“Are you enjoying this, your highness?” you whispered, making her giggle.

“Gloat all you want, hun, you’re lucky mama’s too aroused to stop you,” she retorted with a smirk.

Novo’s words seemed to boost your ego a little bit. You smirked and moved your hand towards her nipple and flicked it a bit, making her shudder. Seeing her squirm in your hands brought a huge smile on your face. Novo seemed to be enjoying the massage, too, even if it seemed to be boosting your ego.

Using your available hand, you scooped some water and splashed it onto the queen's body. Novo sneezed when some of the water leaked into her nose, much to your amusement. Not giving you the chance to comment on the sneeze, the queen turned around and looked into your eyes.

“Would you be a dear and massage your queen’s back now?” she asked.

“Sure thing, your majesty,” you replied. Stroking the back of her head a few times, you slowly moved to massage her wings. Novo ended up moaning a bit louder, and you knew that was probably loud enough for the guards to hear. You can only imagine the looks on their faces when they picture you enjoying your time with Queen Novo.

Once you finished washing her wings, you continued down until you reached her rear.

“Mmm, you getting a good feel down there, handsome?” Queen Novo teased, shaking her butt.

“Why, yes I am, my queen. In fact, it’s irresistible,” you answered while squeezing one of her rump cheeks. As you sank your hands into her rear, you noticed how her beak was just inches away from your lips.

“Bellator, come here and give me some sugar,” she whispered. You obeyed the horny queen and locked your lips with her beak. Despite how sharp her beak was, Novo was careful to make sure the kiss felt enjoyable. While your hands were still caring for her rear, her hands reached up to rub your cheek.

Still keeping her beak attached to your lips, Novo began to lift one of her legs closer to you, signaling that she wanted you to work on them next. You granted her wish and slowly rubbed up and down her right leg.

“Your legs look pretty shiny and smooth. You sure know how to keep your gorgeous figure my beautiful queen,” you complimented.

“A queen has to make sure to take care of herself and keep in the best shape when ruling her kingdom, Bellator,” she smiled before she lifted the other leg. You reached out and massaged her long, slender legs. She sighed contently, enjoying the feeling of your skilled hands.

After giving her another kiss, you noticed how your hands were getting pruney and decided you’ve stayed in long enough. Getting out of the water, you offered Queen Novo your hand which she took with a smile.

Taking a couple of minutes to dry yourselves off, both you and Novo grabbed a bathrobe to cover yourselves. You looked at her with amusement as the robe struggled to contain her wholesome bust.

“Well, that was refreshing, don’t you think?” you asked, stretching your body.

“Without a doubt, you stud,” Novo answered as she grabbed ahold of your arm. Walking over to the door with the queen leaning on you, you used your free arm to open it. As you expected, when you walked out and looked at the guards, their faces were blushing bright red, probably hearing all the moaning from inside the bathroom.

“You guards haven’t been listening in on us, have you?” Queen Novo asked, placing her claws on her hips.

“N-No your majesty!” they frantically answered, standing up straight and sweating. You chuckled at how they were obviously lying, but you spared them their lives by keeping quiet. Queen Novo also knew they were lying, but she also decided to let it go and grabbed your arm again. You both continued walking back to Novo’s chambers.

“I’m quite surprised you chose to let them off the hook,” you admitted.

“Well, to tell you the truth, those two guards back there are still fresh out of training school, so I can’t punish them right off the bat just for listening in on us,” she shrugged.

“Understandable,” you said as you finally stopped at the doors leading to Novo’s room. With a bow, the hippogriffs who were standing guard opened the doors for you with a smile.

“Have yourself a nice rest,” they said with a smile, which both you and Novo returned. Before they closed the doors, you gave them an added salute out of respect. Unknown to these guards however, you and Novo wouldn’t be going to bed just yet.

“Hey Novo,” you said with a devious look.

“Y-Yes?” she asked unsure why you were looking at her like that. She yelled as you suddenly scooped her into your arms, carrying her bridal style. A blush appeared on her cheeks, seeing how you were holding her like this.

“Oh, you sneaky little! Put me down!” she laughed, but you shook your head.

“No can do! A queen as radiant as you deserves to be brought to bed in style and I’m not taking “no” for an answer, gorgeous,” you replied as you rubbed your nose against her beak. Though she was embarrassed at first, Novo soon accepted it and latched her arms around your neck.

“Well, when you put it that way, I suppose it does sound interesting...” she said with a grin. You savor the moment of getting to hold the beautiful hippogriff in your arms. It was as if you were her handsome knight who had just brought her back to safety. After keeping her close in your embrace for a few minutes, you finally began walking over to her bed and set her down.

“Carrying me like that... you’re the first to do so since my late husband,” she said, watching as you joined her on the bed.

“I couldn’t help myself, you’ve made me so happy, Novo. I wanted make you feel special after everything you, Skystar and the rest of the kingdom did for me over the past year...”

Novo wrapped her arms around your neck again, knowing you weren’t done talking. “I’m listening baby.”

“After I lost my wife and daughter, it seemed like there was no point in doing anything anymore. My life was starting to fall apart, but it was you and everyone else here who helped me pick up the pieces and become a more stronger and independent man. As I told Skystar, I’m well aware that I could never replace your husband, but that didn’t stop me from showing my love for you,” you said.

Queen Novo gave you a warm smile and rubbed your cheek again. “Bellator, I’ve sort of been thinking almost the exact same thing. Likewise, Skystar and I can’t ever replace your wife and daughter, but that doesn’t matter, because I love you so much and I want to show you just how much I do,” Novo replied and let go of your neck.

You watched as she slowly undid her robe and slid it off her shoulder. The robe had been struggling to contain her breasts, which bounced out as they were free from the confines.

“You’re beautiful...” you whispered as you sat up and held her hand.

“I’m well aware of that, but feel free to remind me as often as you like...” she replied just as quietly. After you let go of her claw, she took hold of it and placed in on her breast.

“Remember what I said before, they’re sensitive so be gentle,” she reminded as you began to squeeze her breast. You groped her incredible bust and rubbed it gently in a circle. The other hand traveled behind her and began to play with her wings.

When you were groping her in the bath, Novo of course had noticed your erection that was pressing against her, but chose not to say anything. She wasn’t going to keep quiet this time.

“You know, it’s unfair if your queen is the only one undressing here. Get rid of that robe of yours and let’s see what you’re packing, big boy,” Novo said, seductively.

You obeyed without question and took your robe off, tossing it at the foot of the bed. You exposed yourself to Novo, letting her see your huge erection and the rest of your body. Licking her beak in anticipation, she began to softly stroke your length. You inhaled deeply and threw your head back slowly as she massaged you.

“That’s nice...” you sighed, enjoying the soft feeling of your lover’s claws. She was extra careful to make sure her talons didn’t injure you. You savor the feeling for a little while until this idea popped into your head. You gave the queen a slight smirk and tapped her lightly on the head, getting her attention.

“I’ve got a better idea on how to make this better. Do you mind?” you asked politely.

“I’m all ears. What did you have in mind honey?” Novo asked, noticing how you were observing her breasts.

“First, lay down on your back. I’m gonna straddle on top of you. Once I’ve done that, wrap your breasts around my shaft and rub them up and down,” you said. Novo didn’t understand what you meant by this, but she followed your instructions.

You carefully sat on her, making sure not to drop your weight on her as you did so. You sighed in content as she wrapped your manhood in between her bosom. She started rubbing her breasts around your shaft and moved them up and down. As she’s doing this, you thrusted in and out of her breasts, making your shaft play peek-a-boo with the queen.

“T-That... That’s the stuff...” you moaned and placed your hands on both breasts as you moved in between them. The entire time, Novo had a confused expression as she felt you pick up speed.

“Is... Is it really that good?” she asked pressing her melons a little tighter around your shaft.

“It’s... the best feeling I’ve ever felt... y-you’re a natural!” you moaned, still thrusting in and out of her breasts. A soft blush followed by a warm smile appeared on Novo’s face, as she felt flattered from your praise. Thinking of away to thank you, she noticed how the head of your member was poking through the valley of her bust.

“Well if you’re going to praise me that much...” Novo didn’t say another word, but instead latched her beak onto your shaft, bobbing her head while tittyfucking you. Her muffled moans caused whole body shuddered, and you began to thrust in and out of her breasts faster than before.

Giving you a playful look, Novo stopped bobbing so she could swirled her tongue around the head. Your shivering continued as you felt her soft tongue and tightened your hold on her beautiful breasts.

“O-Oh yes! I f-f-feel like I... I might cum soon...!” you moaned. Novo smirked and went back to sucking on your member, wanting you to unload it all in her mouth. Though she remembered to keep going at a steady pace, since she could hurt you with her sharp beak.

With a loud groan, you reached your limit and many ropes of your seed were sprayed into Novo’s mouth. Looking down at her, you were impressed how she managed to swallow every single drop of your semen without spilling any on her body or her bed. After your climax had subsided, Novo allowed you to pull out of her warm mouth, but gave your head a quick kiss before it was away from her face.

“Honestly I can’t understand why my husband never used my breasts like that Bellator, it was actually kind of fun,” she said with a wink.

You laid next to her and turned her head so you could kiss her again. This time however, you prodded her beak with you tongue, waiting for an entrance. Novo granted your wish and allowed you to wrestle your tongue against hers. As your tongues battled for dominance, you reached up and once again started fondling her breast.

Slowly closing her eyes, Queen Novo moaned in the kiss and wrapped her arms around you, pulling you into a deeper and hungrier kiss. You started to pinch her nipple, causing her to moan into your mouth even louder.

Your first french kiss with Novo ended after about five minutes, leaving you both panting. Pulling away with your tongues still outside your mouths, a string of saliva connected your lips to Novo’s. Because of all the excitement, the queen began to feel a wetness that she hadn’t felt in so long.

“Mama has been enjoying herself so far... but the real fun is about to begin,” Queen Novo said seductively, staring at you with her half-lidded eyes. You knew all too well what she was implying, especially when she got on her knees and raised her rear. You got behind her and placed your hands on her soft butt cheeks, spreading them out to reveal her dripping pussy.

“My benevolent queen deserves nothing but the best...” you whispered, placing your shaft in front of her entrance. Slowly, you eased your length into her tight walls. However, even though your entire manhood was soon inside of her, Novo noticed that you haven’t begun moving yet.

“B-Bellator... what’s wrong...” she stopped as you leaned onto her back and took her lips again. Her eyes fluttered adoringly as you resume your movement and you also reached under to grab one of her breasts.

Novo felt her whole body trembling as you began your rhythm. Stroking your face with her claw, the queen moved away so she could speak. “Oh yes... It’s been years since I felt this kind of pleasure...!” she muttered.

Hearing that, you smiled and began to pick up the pace, rutting Novo as hard as you could. She flapped her gorgeous wings out of excitement. With her pussy being rutted senseless and her breasts being squeezed by your skilled hands, she didn’t know how much longer she would last.

Due to her wings flapping, her feathers began to tickle your arms, causing you to shiver. By this point, you wondered if she was doing it on purpose.

Her inner walls tightened around your shaft when you caught her off-guard with a lick to the neck and a good spanking on her butt cheek. A huge blush of embarrassment appeared on her cheeks from the treatment. After all none of the hippogriffs would even think about spanking their queen. But after so many years, she enjoyed the feeling of someone smacking her ass like you did.

Much to the queen’s disappointment however, you pulled out of her pussy. Just when she was about to demand an explanation, she got her answer when you switched positions with her. You were now laying on the bed with the queen straddled on top of you.

“W-What’s this?” Novo asked somewhat amused.

“It’s called the “cowgirl” position. Basically, it’s your turn to have some fun. Just re-insert my cock inside of you and start bouncing. Trust me, you’ll love it,” you assured. Novo put a claw to her mouth, as the name of the position caused her to giggle.

She then places her claws on your bare chest and rides your cock. She gave out moans of endless pleasure and you felt her talons slightly dig into your skin.

‘I guess I’ll be getting a few new scars tonight,’ you thought. You had a high threshold for pain, so you showed little reaction as her claws sank into you. Novo wasn’t about to let a moment like this end quickly. She savored every moment, throwing her head up in the air, screeching. She looked so beautiful as she rode you so well.

You reached up and squeezed both breasts again, and she began to look at you with mischief. “Do my big girls feel good, my handsome human?” Novo asked, seductively.

“Oh, you bet they do!” you replied, moving her breasts in circles. You then began to pinch and tug on her nipples. Once again, the queen’s wings began to flap, which actually worked in your favor since you could feel the air blow on your sweaty face. You could also hear the sounds of her pussy making wet slaps every time she slammed herself down on your member.

You decided once again to take control. Letting go of her nipples, you wrapped your arms around her back and surprised her as you got off the bed with her in your arms. Instinctively, Novo wrapped her legs around your back as you bounced her on your cock. She then shot her eyes upwards with a goofy smile on her face.

Her moaning got throaty and her breathing grew heavy. Reaching up, you began to pet her mane while the other remained wrapped around her back. Soon however, the pressure in your loins were growing. Laying Novo back onto the bed, you kissed her deeply and began pounding her as hard and fast as possible.

“O-Oh Bellator...!” she moaned before taking your lips again. “Your q-queen here is... g-getting c-c-close to... c-cumming!”

“S-So am I!” you replied leaning your forehead against her own. Novo traced her claws along your back, this time being careful not to cut you. You were approaching your orgasm and were about to pull out when you felt Novo tighten her legs around your waist.

“N-Novo... I-I...” you tried to say, but the queen smiled sweetly.

“I’m well aware of what will happen honey... Go ahead! I want it all inside!”

With a few more deep thrusts, you felt yourself climaxing deep inside Novo’s womb. Instead of earning a loud moan from her, Novo screeches just like an eagle as you filled her insides. She, in turn, sprayed her love nectar all over your crotch, staining her bedsheets.

“Oh yes!!! I’ve wanted this for so long!” she screamed with her tongue hanging out of her beak. Seeing that, you took advantage of this and pulled her in, battling with the tongue that was already sticking out of her mouth. Novo gently wrapped her arms around you, and kept them wrapped even as she felt your member pull out.

“Honey... that was delightful!” Novo chirped and settled onto your chest like a pillow.

“I’ll say. I don’t think I’ve ever had sex that good ever since I first got married. You were amazing, my queen,” you said, before kissing her forehead.

After you pulled the covers over the both of you, Novo rubbed her stomach with happy tears flowing down her face. “If there’s anything that’s amazing, it’s how well you’ve treated me and giving me the chance to experience the joys of bringing new life into the kingdom.”

After hearing that, you started to cry as well. It had been a long time since you shedded even a single tear. Especially tears of happiness. All this time, you thought your tears had dried up during your time in the navy, but now, after so long, you felt glad that your tears finally returned.

After your amazing night with Queen Novo, things were especially awkward for the guards who had been guarding your chambers. The next morning, Queen Novo made plans to take you somewhere important. You weren’t exactly sure what it was she wanted to show you, but you could tell from the look in her eyes it brought her a bit of sorrow.

Novo even brought along Princess Skystar. Unlike you, she knew exactly where she was going and she was saddened by the sight. After all, that sight was her father’s grave.

Upon arriving, you noticed that his grave was actually a memorial statue. The statue was carved into a hippogriff with a wings that were far wider than probably Queen Novo’s. The statue of this hippogriff also had on a suit of armor and a giant blade in his hand, pointing to the sky.

The plaque on the stone wall said “In loving honor and memory of King Talons: May the winds in the sky guide you to a better place.”

Getting down on one knee, you closed your eyes to pay your respects. “I promise you my king, both your wife and your daughter will forever be in good hands. I will protect them and this kingdom with my life. I may not have known much about you, but I have heard of many great things about you from your family. You have my word that no harm will come to anyone in the entire kingdom. May you rest in peace,” you said. Afterwards, you stood up and saluted his statue out of habit.

“You know, even if I never got to meet my biological father, I’m still happy that I got to have you as my daddy,” Skystar said, giving you a hug. You hugged Skystar back.

“I’m sure your father would be proud of how well you’ve grown up,” you said, before turning to face the queen. “Novo?”

“Hmm? Yes, Bellator?” she asked.

“I’ve been thinking for quite some time and… well, there’s something I want to say to you.” you said, kneeling down again. Novo gasped. “We’ve been together for quite some time and I’ve never felt more happier in my entire life when we started dating. And now, I feel like now is the right time for me to come out and say this...” you paused and reached into your pocket, pulling out a little box.

You opened it up and revealed a ring, causing her to place her claw over her heart. “Queen Novo, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?”

Skystar was smiling as wide as she possibly could. Though, she knew better than to ruin the moment and therefore kept quiet.

Queen Novo smiled and kneeled down with you and embraced you. “I’d love to marry you. Nothing would make me more happier Bellator,” she said. “After all... every queen needs a king.”

Standing back up, you put your hand around Novo’s waist and kissed her. Now it’s official... you had a new family.
