The Best Laid Plans

The room stayed silent as all eyes stayed trained on the captain. Looks of fear were present, and none dared to move from their spot.

"So," Pharynx began, his voice seething with anger, while it carried an odd mix of a mild rasp and a snarly yet blunt tone. "Does someone want to explain to me why one-third of the Ponyville infiltration team is having a gangbang in the middle of the Mission Briefing Room!?"

None answered, fear taking over their common senses as Pharynx took a step forward.

"Front and center. NOW!" he bellowed as he slammed a hoof to the cavern floor, which spurred the four drones to jump at his command.

Watching all her drones leave the table, Chrysalis felt an emptiness engulf her body. Her ass still felt sore, her afterglow was ruined by the captain's appearance, and her heart was beating so fast, she found herself panting. The worst of it all was now she was getting hornier as seconds ticked by, and staring at the cause of it, she knew why. As the drones lined up and stood at attention in front of Pharynx, Chrysalis realized she was close enough to him that her mind and body was starting to crave him.

Unlike common drones, when a brooder and a breeder were near each other, the breeder would give off a special pheromone that only a brooder could pick up on. It had a near mind controlling effect on the female and it made her want to breed with whoever had the strongest pheromone if more than one breeder was present. Being a queen didn't save her from that either, and it was one of the downsides of ruling the hive. It forced her to build an ironclad resolve and suppress her primal and lustful desires to breed, and it’s why she had an ever growing harem of drones who could sate her urges.

Except now she didn't have the safety of her chambers, or the proximity of any of her consorts. Her body was still in a highly sexualized state, and that ironclad resolve she had built herself over the years was now nothing but a paper tiger in front of an incoming tornado.

"Sergeant Culex, I'll rephrase the question and ask again," Pharynx spoke up, his commanding voice causing Chrysalis to break from her lustful stupor. "Care to explain why you and three of your units were balls deep in a brooder who looks like she's fresh out of the chambers below?"

The large changeling stood in place, and though he was clearly bigger than Pharynx was he couldn't have looked any smaller than he did.

"I-I… we uh—we were just," Culex bumbled and stammered out; his once egotistical tone was no more, and in its wake was a scared little changeling who was being scolded by an imposing figure of true power. "Th-the brooder was looking to get laid and we obliged!" he ended as he gave his captain a weak and sheepish smile.

"Really now?" Pharynx replied in an unamused manner as he cocked his brow. "Well if that was the case, then why didn't you wait until your meeting was over, because as far as I know, you still have another twenty minutes. Look, I don't care who or what you rut on your off time, but I won't tolerate sexual misconduct on the queen's time!"

Culex said nothing, Chrysalis noticing he was trying so hard to not tremble and crumble beneath him, before Pharynx turned his eyes to the rest of the unit.

"That goes for you three as well," Pharynx continued, his voice growing angrier as he glanced up and down the line. "I expected better from all of you, and if it wasn't for the fact that all of you are leaving shortly for your mission, I would be imposing disciplinary actions. I don't think our queen would be very happy to hear that the invasion is getting delayed because certain changelings wanted to screw around!"

"Umm, Captain," Culex spoke up, his voice not as fearful as before. "We actually finished our meeting early and we were going to get ready for departure, until the brooder behind us walked in looking for a session."

"Interesting," Pharynx replied, almost like he knew something was amiss. "So you finished your meeting and that brooder instigated sexual activities with you four?"

"Yes sir!" Culex replied with no hesitation in his voice.

"I'll ask you one more time: She instigated this little orgy?"

"I swear on my rank I'm not lying to you sir," Culex said as he brought up his right hoof and placed it across his chest, giving the captain the swarm salute.

"Hmph… Corporal Pandinus, who instigated this?" Pharynx turned his attention to the changeling to the left of Culex, causing a tense feeling to fill the room.

Pandinus stayed quiet for a moment and kept his face neutral. Despite his best intentions, Chrysalis noticed an ever so subtle smirk appear on his face.

"The sergeant did, Captain," he spoke as Culex started to fidget his back legs, almost like he was stopping himself from attacking Pandinus. "While Catharsis was the one who came in the room first, it was the sergeant who implied his intentions, before she gave us hers."

"Is that so?" Pharynx replied with a shrewd look on his face as his eyes shifted to the changeling to the right of Culex. "Corporal Aphius, which one of these two speaks the truth? You're the most honest changeling we have in the hive."

Aphius' expression scrunched up as she eyeballed her sergeant at the corner of her eye. Given the fact that she played favorites with her sergeant, Chrysalis knew that honest personality of hers would come back to bite her in the ass.

"M-my apologies, Sarge, but you know I can't lie about this," Aphius spoke, her voice filled with fear and remorse. "Pan speaks the truth… b-but I als-"

"That's all I needed to know." Pharynx raised his hoof, cutting off Aphius' words. "Any other facts are irrelevant."

Aphius went quiet, and Pharynx turned his eyes back to the trembling sergeant.

"Soooo… not only did you instigate sex with a first time brooder, you tried to lie about it to my face!" Pharynx snapped at him with malice in his voice, as he pressed his face into Culex's face, causing the large changeling to sulk his body downward and appear smaller than his captain. "There are no amount of words to express how disappointed I am in you… Corporal Culex."

Culex's ears drooped down, his mouth went wide, and his body sank to the floor. Utter disbelief was very present on his face, and Chrysalis knew from just one word alone, his pride got shattered completely.

"I don't know how the queen will react to this demotion, but considering you broke one of her laws, as well as lied to a superior officer… I'm pretty sure she won't mind a minor revision to who leads the mission." Pharynx pulled away and stood back up as he eyed the remaining drones.

"Captain, if I may speak," Pandinus broke in, causing everyone but Culex to focus on him. "How did you know that Catharsis was a first timer? As far as I recall, you only implied she looked like she was fresh from the chambers below, but not once did anyone say she was a first time brooder."

"Quite the eye you got there, Corporal," Pharynx started to say as he gave the changeling a smile, before he started to pull out a sealed note from his armor. "There are three reasons I'm here right now: one… at the tail end of my patrol, I ran into a recon drone that was stationed outside of Ponyville. He had a last minute change to report to the queen, that was written in his note for hers and your group's eyes only. You already know it's not my responsibility to read the communications between your group and the recon drones, so I have no idea what it says. However, he let it slip that one of your targets was getting ready to leave Ponyville and would most likely be out of town during the initial takeover. I simply offered to take the note back so he could return to his post."

Chrysalis wondered which pony was leaving town and knew she had to read that note once she was done.

"Two… the queen isn't in her throne room right now, as her personal guards have stated 'she's out for a breath of fresh air' so I wasn't able to report to her. Lastly three... I ran into Corporal Auralius on the way here, who looked very upset about something. I asked what was wrong, she filled me in on the situation here, and I kept quiet about it, in order to gauge the responses I would get."

"So you decided to test us?" Pandinus asked.

"Yes… and it showed certain changelings don't deserve the rank they have, or rather, had," Pharynx ended as he gave Culex a dark glare.

Chrysalis listened carefully, and while her mind only cared for breeding, she knew her captain made the right call. She saw Culex's mannerisms in full effect and though she was the initial cause for his actions, she planned to ignore it. Sadly with her captain now in the equation, ignoring the former sergeant was out of the question. If anything, it worked in her favor; a male who knew how to plow was better suited to be part of her harem, rather than to lead a unit. She already had the idea of pulling him from the group after the invasion was a success, and now she had more of a reason to do it.

Even with that thought, she still wanted Pharynx. Throughout the entire lecture, she focused on him. Her body ached for him so hard, it dulled the pain in her ass as she laid in place. Thankfully the feeling kept her at bay, and she opted to watch everything play out as her body got itself ready for round two.

"As for you," Pharynx spoke up as he shifted his gaze and focused on her, before walking to the edge of the table. "You're also a problem to this entire situation. While I know my Corporal had sexual intentions for you, you only further provoked him and the rest of my squad, in order to sate your own selfish needs."

Chrysalis said nothing but took no offense to his comment. He didn't know who he was speaking to and she wasn't going to fault him for his actions, but she knew if things continued to play out, her cover would get blown. For a second she looked to the other drones, their backs to her and the captain, causing an idea to form in her head. She took a deep breath and smiled at him, causing him to tilt his head and look at her with a puzzled expression.

"You have nothing to say about this?" he asked. "No apology for your actions whatsoever?"

"There are many things I would like to say… Captain Pharynx," she spoke softly as she closed her eyes.

"Wait, how do you-"

Chrysalis opened her eyes again, and those rosy pink eyes she had were gone, and in their place were her natural eyes; the green pupils of a queen. The captain froze and blinked several times, almost like he was trying to process what he was looking at. As his eyes stared at her, she began to crawl towards him, the scent he let off got stronger and her body got so heated she was starting to drip arousal. Her heart raced and her mind got clouded with primal desires she hadn't experienced since her younger days within the hive. Thoughts and desires she had locked away now took over her common senses and it only got worse as she came to the edge of the table, her face mere inches from his.

"Quite the chain of events have taken place," she began to whisper so only he would hear her, breaking the false voice she once had. "As much as I would love to discuss this right now, I came here with the intent of enjoying myself. Your troops tended to me quite nicely, and I was looking forward to a longer session with them. However with you here, desires I haven't felt in countless years are surfacing and I wish to indulge them fully. It's very unfitting for a queen to make a demand like this, but considering you interrupted this session… I think it's only fair you finish what your troops started."

She stopped and collected herself, before she leaned in and gave him a quick kiss on his lips, causing him to stiffen his body and flitter his wings intensely for a brief moment.

"Captain Pharynx, I order you to breed with me."

Pharynx said nothing, his expression blank as he stared mindlessly into Chrysalis' eyes. She expected as much until he gave his head a shake and took a deep breath.

"I will do as you ask. Apologies for my rude comment prior, My Queen," he replied loud enough that Chrysalis could notice Pandinus' ears twitch slightly.

She closed her eyes again as the corporal slowly turned his head, and opened them back up, restoring her disguised eyes. While Pandinus was watching, Chrysalis noticed the other three weren't. Culex still looked defeated and Aphius was talking to him, no doubt trying to comfort him in some way. Drax showed no reactions to anything and looked like he was lost in his own thoughts.

"Seems one of them heard your comment, Captain," Chrysalis spoke again, her voice back to the timid one.

Pharynx tensed up and peered over his shoulder. As he turned, Pandinus quickly faced forward, but not fast enough that the captain didn't notice.

"Is this going to be a problem, My Queen?" Pharynx asked, his voice much lower.

"I'm sure he can be persuaded," she hummed as her eyes travelled down Pandinus' body, and though his erection was going soft, she remembered he was the only one in the group that hadn't finished up. "Dismiss the other three and keep him here. I wasn't quite done with him. Oh, and you also don't have to be so formal with me now. After all, you're about to rut me senseless."

"As you wish," he smirked before he turned his attention to the drones in line.

"So," he began as he resumed his orderly composure and walked back in front. "Given the circumstances… Corporal Aphius and Culex, and Private Drax… you will be dismissed so you can get ready for departure. Aphius, you round up the rest of the unit and have them wait for me by the west entrance. After I'm done here and deliver this message to the queen, I'll send you all off."

"Roger that, Captain!" Aphius gave a salute as the three quickly exited the room.

"As for you, Corporal Pandinus." Pharynx paused and took a deep breath before he relaxed and his tone shifted into a more casual one. "I take it that you heard what I said earlier, correct?"

Pandinus stayed quiet as he looked to his captain and turned his vision to Chrysalis.

"I had my suspicions that something was off this whole time, but I didn't want to say anything in front of the others," he replied.

"Did you now?" Chrysalis spoke up as both of them looked to her. "I'm curious to how you came to that conclusion."

"Well… My Queen, firstly, a brooder showing up here of all places was very weird. This room is nowhere near the route to your throne room from the brooder chambers below, so it shows you had intent to come here in the first place. Secondly, you said that you were summoned for a first time inspection, yet Captain Pharynx stated that your guards told him you were out for a breath of fresh air. You wouldn't summon a brooder up and then wander off like that, so that was a contradiction and it became concrete when I heard the captain address you."

"Seems you got an eye for keeping track of things," Chrysalis spoke again, dropping her fake voice completely. "But I trust that you will keep this a secret, correct?"

"Of course, My Queen," he replied dutifully.

"Perfect. Now, since that is out of the way, you do realize there is something else I desire from you, correct?" she told him as her eyes travelled down his body to his penis that was now just poking out from its sheath.

"You wish to continue?" he asked sheepishly as he fidgetted his back legs.

"Of course. I came here looking for a session and I will get what I want. You never got a chance to finish," she said as she gave her lips a lick. "And I'm still a bit… thirsty, so to speak."

Pandinus blushed and looked away.

"As I said to my captain, we will drop all formalities and continue where we left off." Chrysalis' horn flared up and undid her disguise. In a flash of green light, there she laid in her natural form on the table. Both changelings tensed up and their eyes went wide, but Chrysalis couldn't help but notice a smirk appear on Pharynx's face.

"So." Chrysalis rolled onto her back and her head hung over the edge of the table. "Shall we continue? Oh, and feel free to have no restraint. I may be your queen, but right now I'm just a simple brooder looking to enjoy two big, strong studs, so be as direct as you please."

"Yes, ma'am," both mused.

Chrysalis looked to Pharynx's body, causing her wings to flutter as the sight of his erection starting to poke out of his sheath became apparent. Unlike the blue, stinger-like appendage she was dealing with prior, his was a dark purple and his tip wasn't as tapered. His growing erection was thicker and the tip would bloom open, allowing him to lay eggs inside of her.

Her body shuddered, knowing very well the situation she was putting herself in, but she didn't care. The urge to be a mother was too great to ignore, and though she was able to wind down and regain her senses thanks to her brief talk with Pandinus, she wanted to be bred more than anything else in the world. That resolve of hers was fading fast and was now nothing but a wet napkin being swept away by the raging storm.

"Give her a proper throat swabbing, Pan," Pharynx suddenly spoke up as he jumped on the table and walked to her rear. "I'm going to enjoy this end."

Chrysalis started to crane her head up, but stopped as Pandinus started to approach her. Even from her upside down perspective, she could see the smug look of satisfaction from an individual ready to face fuck his queen, and looking down to his growing erection, she knew he had no qualms with it.

"Just a heads-up," Pandinus spoke up as he started to stroke himself with his hoof. "Culex gave her a hefty dose of anal, and Aphius gave her a tongue lashing, as well as a proper cleaning."

"Well… that means I can do this without any worries."

The sound of armor hitting the table resounded throughout the room, and Chrysalis knew her captain had stripped down. Just as quickly as the sound came, Chrysalis felt her legs part as Pharynx gently opened them up. She heard him shuffle, no doubt laying his body on the table so he could lean in close. She heard him breathe in through his nose, taking in her scent, before he breathed out of his mouth, letting the hot air beat against her wetness. She grinded her hips in return, tempting him further, until he stuck out his tongue and gave her pussy a long and soothing lick. She shuddered and sighed as it travelled upward, and she couldn't help but coo gently as it brushed over her clitoris.

She felt his body shift and the feeling of hooves greeting her as they rested near her moist lips. His tongue moved away and his hooves parted her wetness, allowing him to stare inside before he pushed his tongue back in. She moaned loudly as his slick appendage slithered about, eagerly exploring the moist and tight opening, and she couldn't help but lay her head back fully, allowing her vision to be obscured by the other male in the room.

She focused on Pandinus, her mouth hung open as she was greeted by the sight of a fully erect cock dangling in front of her muzzle. She looked up and gave him a lusty hiss as his own scent filled the air, before she gave his length a tentative lick. He edged forward, and let out a deep sigh of content as she pushed her muzzle into his ball sack. Once she came in contact with it, she hummed into it, letting her lips vibrate against the sensitive flesh. She quickly followed up and gave it a kiss and sucked his left nut into her mouth. She watched him tense briefly, but quickly relaxed as her tongue started to run circles around it. Quickly taking her mouth off of it, she did the same to the other nut, and for a few seconds she repeated the motion, nurturing and caressing his balls in a way he couldn't help but relax to as some of his precum started to show and dribble down his shaft.

"I'm waiting..." she spoke in an alluring manner as she pulled her lips away.

Pandinus needed no further provocation from her and he pulled himself back, before he adjusted himself so his aching erection was now ready for entry. As the tip came to her lips, she breathed in his scent one last time and gave the tip a long lick, before she quickly took the end of it in her mouth. He let out a deep sigh as her lips caressed his erection and she felt him inch forward. She sucked softly on it as he began to gently rock his hips, allowing his erection to slowly work its way in. Considering her throat was perfectly straight and open, she had no problem taking in his cock to the fullest. As he came to a stop and his balls dangled in front of her eyes, she moaned and hummed into his erection, giving him the go ahead to start. He did as such, and she relaxed herself completely as the changeling started to find his pace.

Even with Pandinus' balls in line of sight, along with the constant slap of those same nuts against her muzzle, she focused her attention back on her affectionate captain. Unlike Aphius prior, Pharynx took it nice and slow. His lips caressed both her moist lips and clitoris with small kisses, while his tongue danced around, lapping up any juice he could find. Between his laps, she felt it also thrust gently inside, poking and prodding in an effort to stimulate her further. She rewarded him with loud coos of approval as her hips swayed in tune with his tongue, allowing him to hit deeper spots inside of her. As she continued to moan with pleasure, her mouth was constantly vibrating around Pandinus' erection, and the changeling that eagerly serviced her throat brought his front hooves up and rested them against her cheeks. For a moment they stayed there, until he ran them down her head, allowing them to brush against her silky, smooth mane. They were both gentle with her, a welcomed reprise from the mindless debauchery from before, and she couldn't deny how good it felt to be tended by two changelings that wished to only service their queen.

"I'm going in," Pharynx spoke as he pulled his lips away.

Chrysalis felt her body heat up more as she knew it was finally time. Her wings fluttered at her sides and her whole body twitched with excitement and she opened her legs, presenting herself fully. She heard movement as his hooves scrapped across the table and she felt the tip of his throbbing cock poke against her crotch. She hummed loudly into the cock in her mouth, causing Pandinus to pick up his pace. Pharynx wasted no time either as she felt the tip slip in, her body and mind screaming with delight as he grabbed her lower body with his hooves and hoisted it up. More of the thick mass slipped in, before he let out a grunt and quickly buried his full length in.

She froze up as its entirety filled her, but she didn't get much time to process the feeling as he began to buck his hips, showing how eager he was to get on with it. She acknowledged it and wiggled her rump, allowing her insides to clench hard around his erection. A low and needy growl left his throat, and she felt his hot breath beat against her chest before he nuzzled her with affection and desire.

Her nethers burned and her throat buzzed; the sensation of getting properly rutted on one end while she got to savor a delicious cock on the other was something she could never get enough of. Both changelings had found their rhythm and moved their bodies in a paced motion, making sure they could enjoy every moment as well.

She made sure they got a good experience as well. She kept her lower body tight, allowing Pharynx to get as much enjoyment as he could. He didn't speak, but Chrysalis could tell from the occasional growl he was savoring it as much as she was. She couldn't see it, yet there was no doubt in her mind a big grin was showing on his face.

She kept her throat loose and made sure her lips continued to caress the cock constantly pounding her mouth. Pandinus was a bit faster in his motions, no doubt relishing in the sensational feeling. He kept himself paced though and made sure to be firm but gentle with her. As much as he tried to steady himself, he picked his pace up as his cock went harder. The foreboding feeling of knowing he was close excited her body and she felt the heat in her lower region starting to build up.

She found it harder to control her body as it writhed with pleasure as both her studs satisfied her to the best of their abilities. She moaned greedily into the cock in her mouth, longing so hard for that finish, while yearning even more for the one in her nethers to fill her up and give her younglings to raise in the new coming age.

Pandinus let out a grunt. Suddenly she felt his hooves grip her head and his speed started to pick up. She knew what was coming and she continued to moan loudly into his erection, prompting him to a big finish. She waited, making sure to suck and coax his throbbing length for as long as she could.

Chrysalis' eyes went wide as Pharynx pushed as deep as he could go, as she felt her lower body start to grow numb. She knew what it meant as a breeder’s cum had a special property to it that made the female lose feeling in their body. It was a mechanism that pacified the female and allowed a male’s egg to painlessly enter her womb, and though she felt an orgasm coming, it wouldn't be as intense as it could have been. She didn't care though, she was about to be bred like a common brooder. She should have known better, but those thoughts were lost in the back of her mind as Pandinus let out a deep growl and rammed the full length of his cock into her throat.

She tensed up and got ready for what was to come and just as she did, his seed gushed out. He stopped thrusting and held himself in place, allowing her throat a momentary peace as she moaned loudly onto it, letting her savor the sweet taste of it. Gulping down the savory seed, Chrysalis made sure none spilled down her face as his cock continued to pulse. He gave her a few more weak thrusts, letting anything left behind find its way out, until his cock stopped surging and began to go soft.

"Gods be damned, that felt great," he moaned, while panting for breath and began to pull out.

Chrysalis smiled at him, but her thoughts were cut short as Pharynx started to peak on his end. No longer restricted, Chrysalis craned her head up and looked to her captain. His eyes were closed, no doubt fully concentrated on finishing up. Her legs buzzed with a growing numbness and the feeling of getting rutted was starting to fade. He wasn't slowing down, but his precum that had found its way into her was starting to take effect. Her lust driven mind was cooling down, yet her sexual high didn't diminish as she neared her climax. She wondered if her captain was going to outlast her, and the answer came as she felt the orgasmic switch click in her body.

No longer smothered by a cock in her mouth, her climactic finish was heralded with a moan truly unbefitting of a queen. Loud, whorish, and one very reminiscent of a female who hadn't known true satisfaction for a long time. She felt her body erupt with pleasure, yet as fast and hard as it came, his numbing effects were already starting to cloud her mind and body, and her orgasm was short lived, before her afterglow took quick effect. Pharynx heard it all and grinned with content as he gave her one last thrust and began to pump her full of his own seed.

Chrysalis' moans died off instantly and only came out as squeals of pleasure as the hot, yet icy spunk blasted inside of her. The numbing effect increased tenfold and everything from her stomach downward became unresponsive. Pharynx pushed in the last couple inches of his ovipositor. Even numb as she was, she could still feel the pressure of the tapered tip penetrating her cervix. Once inside, it blossomed open like the petals of a flower, securely locking him in place. She watched Pharynx stay in place, letting out grunts of satisfaction as he came into his queen. His eyes stayed closed until he let out a deep sigh and opened them back up.

"They're coming."

Despite her afterglow setting in, Chrysalis couldn't have been more excited. She directed her eyes to her lower area and watched with bated breath until she saw the faint, blue luminescent glow of an egg enter her body. As numb as she was, she felt a slight pinch as the first egg entered her womb before several more began to follow behind it. She watched them enter one by one, and at her side, she heard Pandinus shift and stare as well, curious to see the act of conception between two changelings. She didn't look at him, and eagerly stared forward as twelve eggs now rested inside her body.

With twelve bunched up in the one area, her lower body glowed blue, allowing any changelings to see that she was carrying future offspring. She stared quietly, the thoughts of being a mother on top of being a queen didn't bother her in the slightest, and she looked forward to raising them all, but the thought was short lived as Pharynx began to pull himself out.

As his erection left her body, the cocktail of both their orgasms started to seep out of her. With no way of holding it in, all of the spunk that was pumped into her started to flow out and cover the table, while the eggs, coated in a tacky resin, were held securely in their mother's womb. Pharynx pulled his body back and stared at the mess he made, proud of what he did before he turned his eyes to where his eggs were.

"That felt great," he hummed as he brought a hoof up and rubbed the area where it was glowing. "Never thought I would see this."

"Mhmmmmaaahhh, simply divine," Chrysalis cooed loudly. "You both did very well. However, a quick thought for you, Corporal. Next time you're about to finish like that, give your mate a gentle tap or a sign so they know you're about to fill them up. I almost wasn't ready for it."

"Apologies, My Queen. I'll remember that always," Pandinus replied as he stepped back, before Chrysalis focused back on Pharynx's hoof.

Though her body was numb, she felt the touch. The touch felt genuine, but one question quickly came to mind.

"Do you have any regrets, Pharynx?" she asked him in a soft tone.

She wouldn't address him by rank anymore. He had earned her favor and now had placed himself in a duel responsibility of being a future parent. Though she didn't regard him to be her equal, he would be held in a higher regard throughout the hive.

Pharynx looked up and smiled at her.

"One should never regret pleasuring his queen," he told her as he leaned forward and kissed her stomach, before resting his head just below the glowing patch. "And none should ever regret bringing life into this world."

"Truer words could never be spoken," she hummed at him, content to know that he would make a good father. "Now if you two could be so kind, I require a lift to the incubation chambers."

"It shall be done, My Queen," Pharynx spoke dutifully as he pulled himself up and turned to Pandinus. "Pan, we require a stretcher and a few carriers for an escort. There's a nursing station nearby, so tell them the situation and they won't give you any trouble."

"I know where it is," Pandinus replied as he stepped back. "I'll be back with a full escort soon enough."

Pandinus began to turn away but stopped.

"I'm also very thankful I had this opportunity to please you, My Queen," he said with the utmost respect in his voice.

"You satisfied me greatly, and I do look forward to doing this again," she replied as she waved him off to attend to the present matter.

Pandinus bowed and quickly left the room, allowing her and Pharynx to have a moment alone.

"Pharynx, I require you at my side," she spoke in an orderly manner as she patted the table near her chest. He quickly obeyed, laying himself down so their faces were level with each other.

"Do you require anything else, My Queen?" he asked, eager to please her more.

"Hold me, but not as a queen. Hold me close like a proper mate would," she said, her voice going soft.

Pharynx made no objections and simply nodded his head in approval, before he edged as close as he could to her. He rested his hoof over her chest, nuzzled his cheek into hers and kissed her on the ear, before he purred into it. Her fatigued body shuddered and she cooed with content as he kissed her neck, and it only further continued as he planted a trail with his lips, slowly moving downwards, until he came down to where his eggs laid. Once there, he kissed every blue outlined egg he could, while never breaking eye contact with her. His hooves caressed her hips as he worked his blissful actions, slowly running circles into them, and she enjoyed it to great effect, but knew it would be short lived. She was still queen, she still had to rule her hive, and after the last infiltration mission got carried out, she would rule Equestria.
