Cadence trundled down the stairs and into the kitchen, all while her large pink belly swung under her. The long, thin and regal form that most ponies had gotten used to seeing on Cadence was gone, replaced by the large, rotund one the princess of love had grown into over the last few months. After reaching the bottom of the stairs the alicorn stopped and smiled, wiping a stray bit of sweat from her brow. Though she made a note of going back to the gym, she doubted she would actually follow up on such a promise, as there were more important things to do. Namely an entire plate of donuts with her name on it waiting nearby for her.

Licking her lips, the heavyset mare trotted into her kitchen and made her way to the table where the plate of delicious treats were waiting and grabbed the first one. Without looking at what kind it was, the pony threw back the entire thing and chewing loudly. “Mmm double chocolate.” She muttered to herself.

As she stood there she couldn't help but sway her hips back and forth, the delicious taste of sugar dancing across her tongue and prompting her to do the same in a more literal sense. Though there was no one around currently, if there was they would have been given quite a show as the alicorn’s large breasts swung and slapped against one another, unnoticed by the mare herself who was in chocolate heaven. As she ate she considered the possibility that she may have gone a little overboard recently, only to dismiss such a thought with little more then a shrug.

She was a princess now, not only in title but in actuality, with her own kingdom, her own guard and her own prince charming which meant she could do whatever she wanted. Thinking of the stallion made the alicorn grin as she threw back another donut and moaned aloud, her mind conjuring up memories of all the things they had done together since Cadence had started putting on weight. Which was quite a lot of things, as Shining Armor’s already considerable libido had been strangely heightened by her weight gain. A fact that didn't help the royal dressmaker who had to work overtime since she started packing on the pounds.

With a sigh of pleasure, the mare sat down on a nearby pillow and patted her stomach, a serene expression crossing her face. The plate that had a dozen donuts on it mere minutes ago was now empty, it's contents now resting in Cadence’s massive stomach. A stomach that groaned under the sudden pressure of having a dozen donuts stuffed inside it.

“Maybe you should trim down to only ten donuts every morning.” Shining Armor offered, the stallion having apparently snuck up on the mare at some point.

Cadence smiled and leaned towards her husband, prompting the stallion to nuzzle her gently. “Sorry about that dear, you know how I get before I have my morning donut.” Cadence replied.

“Don't worry about it Cadey, but don't you think you might be overdoing it a little?” Shining Armor pressed nervously. “I mean, you have been putting on a lot of weight.”

The mare chuckled, looking at her husband with an amused expression. “You say that like you haven't jumped my bones every single opportunity you got since I started getting heavier.”

Shining Armor blushed and tugged awkwardly at the collar of his uniform. “Yes, well, what can I say. I’m a tit man.”

“I’m surprised you didn't just slide inside me instead of saying hello.” Cadence shot back, the mare pressing her neck against Shining’s and nipping his ear. “Or did you get caught staring at my tits again?”

The stallion coughed and took an awkward step away. “Normally I would, but today I’m starting blizzard training with the guard, remember?”

Cadence sighed. “I remember. I just hoped you had a little time to ourselves before you have to go.”

“I’m afraid not Cadey.” Shining Armor replied, planting a kiss on the mare’s nose. “You know how captain Bright Lance is.”

“I still don't know why you can't be a prince and captain of the guard, we make all the rules you know.” Cadence pointed out.

“I know dear.” Shining Armor replied, grabbing his ceremonial sword and helmet from the table next to the door. “But you know what Celestia said, delegation is key to a functional country.”

“I know I know.” Cadence admitted. “But there is still a part of me who just wants my Shining home all the time.”

“Well after I help oversee this last training course I’ll be all yours dear.” Shining Armor vowed, flashing the mare a wink. “Now I better get out of here before Brighty sends another runner to check on me.”

“Take care, I love you!” Cadence yelled after him.

“I love you too candy flanks!” Shining Armor yelled back, a smirk on his lips.

The mare blushed and watched as her stallion exited the door to their private residence and entered the castle proper, only to be ushered away by a trio of waiting guard ponies. “My flanks aren't that big, are they?” She muttered.

Turning around and giving her flanks a prod with her hoof made them jiggle and for the pony to frown. “Darn.” Her frown slowly disappeared when she noticed that despite them being as big as they were, they still did fit her quite well. “Am I what the children call thick, now?” She asked nooone.

Only to chuckle at her own silliness and shake her head. “Shining Armor is barely out the door and already your talking to yourself. Get it together Cadence, we have to check in with the regent before she starts freaking out as well.”

The large mare trotted confidently from their private residence, gave a smile and a nod to the guards waiting outside and turned left, in the direction of the throne room. Though Cadence was tempted to turn right around and walk in the opposite direction as it was the direction Shining Armor had headed, she knew better than to try it. Plus she wasn't even sure if she could get her newly enlarged body to even catch up with her husband at this point.

Humming softly to herself, the alicorn trotted into the throne room, pausing only briefly to smile and nod to the guards who opened the large double doors for her. As she passed, Cadence noticed the distinct blush on both stallion’s faces and decided to give her hips a little shake as she passed them by.

Once inside, the mare smiled at the tall crystal pony who sat off to the side of the room, her nose in a book, completely oblivious to the mountain of paperwork that covered the rest of her desk. Cadence chuckled and shook her head, silently amazed that the other pony could even stand reading the dusty old law tome.

“You know miss Red Tape, if you push your nose any closer I may have to insist that you get those glasses you claim to not need.” Cadence quipped.

The book instantly tumbled to the desk, revealing the wide pink eyes of a terrified pony. “Oh p-p-princess Cadence! I was just…” The mare caught herself mid apology and sighed. “I may have to take you up on that offer.”

“Good, because if you didn't need glasses before, you certainly did after you started reading those dusty old things.” Cadence remarked.

“Your telling me. I can't wait for the day that all our laws have caught up with Equestria and I don't have to look at the things anymore.” Groused the other mare.

“True enough.” Cadence smiled and leaned on the desk, ignoring the slight groan that came from the wood when she did that. “Are we still set for the regent to take over for the weekend?”

Red tape nodded vigorously, pushing her glasses up teal nose. “Oh yes, miss Iron Hoof is getting briefed about her responsibilities right now, would you like to speak to her?”

Cadence shook her head. “No. I’m sure it's fine I just came by to check if everything is going well.”

“It seems so your highness.” Red Tape replied.

“Excellent, I can't even tell you how much I’ve been looking forward to this little vacation.” Cadence gushed, leaning a little more on the desk. “With Shining Armor gone I wasn't sure what I was going to do at first but after some thought I’m really looking forward to the time off.”

Red Tape gulped, the mare only barely able to tear her gaze from her princess’ curvaceous form. “W-what exactly do you have planned anyway?”

Cadence tapped her nose and flashed the mare a wink. “It's a secret.”

“Oh. Well I hope you have fun your highness.” Red Tape stuttered, the mare barely able to keep her gaze on the alicorn’s eyes.

“Thank you Tapey, don't work too hard now!” Cadence replied, pushing off the desk and trotting towards the door.

Behind her, the crystal pony sat bolt upright in her seat, unable to tear her gaze from her sovereign's luxurious curves. “Stars above. Maybe I am gay.” She muttered, tugging nervously on her collar.

Cadence smirked to herself. I still got it.
