Showing His Place: Date Night

Even though it was rather late, none of the three ponies were too tired to hear Discord out. So after a quick cleanup (which the draconequus was respectful enough to leave the room for), Shining, Sombra, and Cadance all sat together on the Private’s personal couch. Since none of them were able to finish their earlier fun, the couple were both squirming in discomfort with matching blushes. Meanwhile, Shining mostly looked the same as before after getting out of his Private armor.

POOF!

As soon as the three were settled in their seats, Discord suddenly reappeared in the loveseat across from them. Instead of any goofy dances or costumes, the draconequus was seated properly with his mismatched “hands” resting on his lap. He nodded cordially to the three ponies as he said, “Well, first of all, I want to thank all three of you for agreeing to speak with me on such short notice. Given how late it’s gotten, I understand how taxing this might be.”

Cadance bit her lip worriedly, but nodded back at Discord with a thankful smile of her own. Meanwhile, Shining couldn’t help shrugging his shoulders before pointing out, “Well, uhhh… to be fair, being interrupted in the middle of sex is kinda taxing as well.”

“Pbbt!” Discord instantly scoffed with a strong eyeroll. “Do you really think you should be the one bringing up that detail? It’s not like you’re getting much action yourself. Especially with that little cage between your legs~”

Shining cringed with a heavy blush, and gasped the moment he saw where Discord was pointing his lion’s paw. Due to his seated stance, the Private didn’t realize his legs were spread apart and exposing his tiny pink chastity cage. As the stallion tried to cross his legs and look away from Discord in embarrassment, Sombra could be heard snickering with a devilish grin. Meanwhile, the draconequus made sure to point back at Cadance and add, “Oh, and by the way, I absolutely loved that key-breaking scene during your pregnancy ceremony. That was very creative~’

Even though receiving an ex-villain’s praise for something so sadistic shouldn’t have made her smile, Cadance blushed a little as she giggled to herself bashfully. “Hehehehe… W-Well, I mean… It’s not like the cage couldn’t be removed in an emergency or something. It was mostly symbolic.”

“Symbolic for what?” asked Discord with a more snide-looking smirk. “For the fact that you’d rather lock up his penis than having anything to do with it?~”

Cadance’s blush deepened, but she squirmed as she looked away from him with a more uncomfortable wince. Shining groaned a little himself, needing to readjust himself in his seat to counteract the pressure in his cage. Since Sombra was seated in between the two, he was looking pleased as punch while smiling to himself pridefully. “I like that interpretation very much, Mister Discord~”

Cadance shot a warning glare over at her husband, causing him to drop his grin and hunch his head down a little. Shining leaned over to look back at Cadance, and mouthed a quick “Thank you” for her to see. As the Princess nodded back at him, Discord tried to bring things back on track. “Anyway, let’s get back to the topic at hand. For starters, let me be the first to congratulate you three for keeping all of… this going for this long. Considering how extreme you guys are taking things, it’s honestly a surprise that nothing terrible has happened yet.”

The three ponies looked back at him with varying looks of awkwardness and unease. Even though they were grateful that Discord was respectful of their choices, it was obvious from his wording that he wasn’t expecting their fun to have lasted for so long. Fortunately, Cadance was the first to speak up in response. “Well, thank you for the kind words, Discord.” Her head tilted the slightest bit as she nodded back at him, almost as if she was trying not to shrug in surprise herself. “To be fair, the three of us have a good sense of communication and respect when it comes to what we could do. All of us are aware how… controversial this all is, so…”

With the Princess’ awkward pause, Discord narrowed his eyes on her while remaining silent. Meanwhile, Sombra made sure to point out with a raised hoof, “Not to mention, it’s not like I have any intentions of reclaiming the Crystal Empire or anything. Seriously, the sense of power I’m getting from these two is far more satisfying than trying to handle politics. Plus, I’d rather not get my ass kicked by a pack of fillies and a baby dragon a third time.”

“Well, that’s very comforting to hear,” pointed out Discord, who was smiling more naturally after hearing that detail. “Honestly, the fact that you have that level of self-awareness is proof enough that you’re not meant to be a politician.”

All three of the ponies shared a proper laugh from that little joke. Meanwhile, Discord looked back towards you, the person reading this story, and added apologetically, “Don’t worry, that’s the only topical joke I’ll be telling in this story.”

“Huh?” Shining narrowed his eyes on Discord in confusion. “Uhhhh… who are you talking to?”

“Oh, nobody.” Discord quickly turned his attention back to the three ponies with a wave of his claw. “Sorry about that. I was just reflecting on how… impressive it is that you guys are handling this kind of relationship so well! I have a feeling that most regular cuckold relationships would find all this to be a bit much~”

Shining and Cadance both winced at the same time, their averting eyes indicating that they understood that point very well. “Well,” said Sombra with a shrug, “most regular couples wouldn’t have the money and resources to make something this big work. Plus, we tend to keep everything we do strictly private.”

“Yes, that’s very true…” After nodding in agreement to Sombra’s statement, Discord leaned in while shooting a more mischievous grin on the three. “But considering how it’s technically your anniversary… What would you say if I offered you three the chance to go out in public, without facing any negative repercussions whatsoever?~”

The ponies all reeled back in shock, their eyes as wide as dinner plates as they gawked back at the smirking draconequus. After a few seconds of stunned silence Shining was the first to raise a hoof and try to speak with caution. “Uhhhh… exactly what do you mean by that?”

“What do you think I mean?~” Discord pulled himself up from his chair, allowing him to stand over the three with a more excited grin. “Just think about it! Lots of cuckolding couples tend to bring their antics out into public at least once in a while, right? All I want to do is give you guys the chance to experience that yourselves~”

Shining’s blush deepened immensely, but the expression beneath showed a look of looming fear and unease. Unfortunately, Discord took more notice of the Private’s squirming legs, which tried to conceal what had to be a strong throb from inside his chastity cage. Meanwhile, Sombra and Cadance glanced back at each other wide-eyed, clearly taken aback by such a bold idea. “Wait, you…” Sombra looked back at Discord in awe, and had to take a couple breaths to keep from getting too antsy. “... a-are you actually serious right now?~”

“As serious as a heart attack~” Discord’s grin grew to an obscenely wide degree, with his singular fang peeking out like the ones from Sombra’s elated smile. “Just imagine… With my help, you could openly make out with Cadance in public, with the Crystal Ponies all able to see, and nopony would even care~ You can even humiliate Shining out in the open as a pathetic cuck, and have everyone laughing at him alongside you…”

Shining shuddered with a more fearful look on his face, but couldn’t stop squirming with his muzzle tightly shut. Meanwhile, Sombra was staring up at Discord with his mouth wide-open, and his eyes nearly bulging out from excitement. Cadance was equally as silent as her former husband, but her heavy blush was accompanied by an audible gulp.

“Heck,” continued Discord with a playful shrug, “you two can even express your affection for one-another, while also pointing out how he’s the husband allowing everything to happen! And at the end of the day, you three can all come back here, and resume your daily routines like nothing ever happened. How does that sound?~”

Sombra didn’t say anything, but his overwhelmed expression made him look like a fat kid who was just left alone in a candy shop. And when he turned over to stare down his Private, Shining shivered in dread from the hunger he saw in Sombra’s piercing red eyes. “That sounds absolutely delightful~”

“I… I agree…”

The two stallions, as well as Discord, all turned over to the source of that timid voice. Princess Cadance tried not to look back at the shocked stares Shining and Sombra were giving her, and kept her muzzle pointed to her pregnant belly. However, even as she rubbed her belly bulge with both hooves, she couldn’t help shrugging while blushing through her bashful smile. “W-What?” she asked the stallions in embarrassment. “I’m into this stuff just as much as you two. A-And, I… I’ve always fantasized about doing something like that…”

Shining’s face dropped, his pupils shrinking from the realization of such a thing. Even though he knew that Cadance had a knack for pushing their limits in public (most notably at the Canterlot garden social when she performed that passionate tango with Sombra), he would’ve never expected her to want something as bold as what Discord was suggesting. But then again, given their high rankings as Equestrian Nobility, it wasn’t like the three could do certain things that most commoner cuckold couples could get away with. Especially with a former enemy who could land them in every national headline page if he even looked at her inappropriately in public.

“Well, I’m very happy to tell you I can give you that opportunity, your Highness~” Even with his sinister-looking smirk, Discord made sure to stand upright and raise his lion’s paw in sincerity. “And I can promise you with every fiber of my being, that it’ll all be one-hundred percent safe and fool-proof. I’ll even agree to erase anypony’s memories if you three get caught or exposed. Of course, I highly doubt that can happen with what I have planned~”

Despite his vague wording, Discord’s confident tone prompted the three to look at one another for silent approval. Cadance may have looked a little hesitant, but she was still smiling while rubbing her belly. Sombra was obviously down for whatever the former foe had planned, and was grinning from ear-to-ear as he peered back at his Private. Shining winced with his muzzle hung low, feeling a bit overwhelmed when he saw everyone looking over at him; but even with how sheepish he looked beneath his blush, he was able to give his answer with a timid shrug, “W-Well, ummm… What exactly were you planning to do?”

“I’m very glad you asked~” Discord was grinning evilly as he stared down Sombra first, and pointed at him with his claw. “Sombra? Would be so kind as to stand up for this demonstration?”

“Hmph~” The stallion instantly got up from the couch, and strutted up to the draconequus with unbridled confidence. “Hopefully this deal is better than the last one I made with you.”

“Well, considering where you are now,” Discord said with a motion of his head back at Cadance, “I don’t think you have much room to complain, do you?”

Before Sombra could even give a “touchè” in response, Discord added, “But I’m glad you brought up that ‘Grogar’ incident, since that same kind of magic was what I was considering for you guys.”

In less than a second, the draconequus stepped back before morphing himself into the very goat-like figure Sombra had met before. All three ponies yelped as they reeled back in shock, not expecting to see the mimic of Grogar in the flesh. As the massive blue being stood over them at nearly thrice their size, he huffed through his nostrils with a satisfied smirk. “See?” asked the Grogar-copy with a much deeper voice. “If I were to walk out like this, nopony would think I was Discord, would they?”

Despite the draconequus’ truthful point, Sombra couldn’t help saying with a skewed muzzle. “Well, I mean… most of Equestria already knows what you did, so they might assume it’s you instead of the real Grogar.”

“Hmmm… Good point.” With that, Discord gave a snap of his goat’s hoof before he quickly reverted back to his regular form. The process took less than a couple seconds, and he was back on his mismatched legs when he said, “But you guys see what I mean, right? If I’m able to shape-shift that well for myself, imagine what I could do for all of you~”

Cadance and Shining turned to each other for a moment, sharing the same look of stunned realization on their faces. Of course, their attention was brought back to Discord when they heard Sombra shout out, “H-HEY! Put me down right now!”

When they glanced back at the two, Shining and Cadance gasped when they saw Sombra floating off the ground with an aura of invisible magic. The stallion tried to thrash in midair, his legs flailing about wildly. But as Discord kept him floating with a raised talon, he pointed at Sombra with his paw and said, “Oh, don’t be such a drama queen. It’s only a quick demonstration~”

He then grinned as he waved his paw in Sombra’s direction, and commenced the transformation magic without hesitation. With a singular poof of the draconequus’ magic, Sombra soon found himself landing back on his hooves. He heard his wife and Private gasp even louder in response, which prompted him to glance back at the two confusedly. “What? What’s the big--MMPHH!!”

Sombra clutched his muzzle with both hooves, not expecting for a voice much younger-sounding to come out instead of his deep regal tone. However, as soon as he felt the lack of fangs peeking out his muzzle, the stallion jolted back with his fur sticking up across his back. That was when he looked down at his hooves, his eyes widening when he saw his fur was no longer the dark charcoal grey he was accustomed to; instead, both of his muscular forelegs carried a light tan coat, with symmetrical lines of thick black tattoo markings crawling up towards his shoulders.

“W-WHAT THE?!” As soon as Sombra turned around to face Discord, the draconequus was already holding up a large mirror so the stallion could see himself. Sombra gasped with his eyes as wide as frisbees, not recognizing the pony in his reflection at all. Through the mirror, Sombra saw what looked to be a very fit, well-toned Earth pony. The tribal tattoos on his forelegs spread out to cover his chest as well, emphasizing the bulging muscles that adorned his youthful physique. Even though he was technically as old as Celestia, Sombra’s new form made him look like he was in his mid-twenties. The only feature that Sombra felt was somewhat familiar was his mane, which was still the same rich black he was used to; however, his new manestyle was much longer, and was tied up near the back in what he knew was called a ‘Man-Bun’.

Sombra glanced back at the cutie mark on his new flanks, which showed what looked to be a gryphon’s claw holding up a black barbell. The claw was bright yellow, while the weights at the ends carried a rich shade of red like crystal.

“Hmmm…” When Sombra finally looked back at his reflection, he couldn’t help smirking when he examined the stallion’s attractive appearance. “So… This is how I would look outside?” Sombra’s smile widened when he looked at his ripped forelegs, and ran a hoof along the tattoos to feel the distinct bumps and creases against his fur. “I gotta say, you have excellent taste, Mister Discord~”

Back on the couch, Shining was staring at his Superior with an extremely heavy blush, clearly intimidated by how attractive Discord made him. Sombra almost looked like a model in his new form, and could most-likely bring a different mare home without problem every night. Even Cadance was blushing in surprise, and had to fan her face with a hoof as she said, “You can say that again~”

“Hmmm, wait a minute…” Sombra leaned in to get a closer look at his face, and huffed in disappointment at his bare forehead. “While I do appreciate this new look, would it have been too much to ask for a working horn as well?”

Discord scoffed a little as he peered down at Sombra from behind the mirror. “Why, because your current one was so useful?”

Sombra gawked up at him with a dropped jaw, looking extremely offended by Discord’s remark. “Woooowwwww. Do you make fun of ponies in wheelchairs too?”

“Oh, don’t try to hold the ethical card, Mister Slave-Owner,” chided Discord. “Besides, wouldn’t it be more fulfilling to be able to cuck Shining in public without the aid of magic?”

Sombra paused briefly enough to contemplate that point, and eventually shrugged with a less upset expression. “Hmmm… Alright, fair enough.”

After taking another look at himself, Sombra grew a more dastardly grin before turning his attention back to Cadance. “So, what do you think, Honey?~”

Shining didn’t say anything, but his small shudder made it clear how weird it felt to have another stallion calling her by such a personal term. Even though he knew it was Sombra beneath that new form, he still felt like Cadance was being accosted by some new random stud. Of course, when he looked back at his former wife, Shining blushed when he saw how blatantly Cadance was smirking up at the new Sombra. “Honestly, I think you look like quite the specimen~”

Sombra reached a tattooed hoof out, and assisted in pulling Cadance up from the couch. He also shot Shining a firm stare and said, “You stay right there, you little bitch~”

“Ooh!~” Cadance was surprised enough to giggle with a giddy blush. “Wow, that’s upfront~”

Shining whimpered a little, but remained seated on the couch with his head hung low in embarrassment. Discord watched with an intrigued grin as he continued to hold up the mirror. Meanwhile, Sombra decided to take advantage of his new appearance as he looked at Shining for a moment, and then asked Cadance, “If you don’t mind the intrusion, your Highness… May I have the pleasure of kissing you in front of your personal Guard?~”

Cadance looked back at Shining with a knowing smirk of her own, and narrowed her eyes intensely as she gave her answer. “Oh, you don’t have to ask permission, big guy~”

Cadance shivered in delight, feeling like she was being taken by a completely new suitor. Sombra went in without warning, and planted his muzzle against her’s for a deep kiss. The Princess quickly moaned out, and wrapped her hooves around the back of his head. Even though they were being pervertedly ogled at by Discord, neither of them seemed to mind his presence while making out lewdly. Shining stayed seated on the couch, and had both hooves covering his crotch as he looked up at Cadance swapping spit with the more attractive stallion. The Princess made sure to look right back down at him with a cheeky grin, just as she stuck her tongue out and let it flick against Sombra’s teasingly.

“Oh, I do declare!~” Discord was now dressed as a Southern Belle, and was fanning his face with a handkerchief that matched his gaudy pink dress. “You two should save some of that fun for when you’re outside~”

Shining’s muzzle tensed up greatly, while Sombra gasped in elation. “OOH!” He looked back at Discord almost pleadingly, and asked, “Can I do that right now?! You said you can erase memories, right?”

“Sombra,” stated Cadance with a much firmer stare on him. “We’ve had several talks about safety, remember?”

“Right, right, right…” Sombra relented and gave his wife an apologetic nod. “Sorry, it was just a joke. You know I wouldn’t want you guys to get hurt.”

Cadance smiled thankfully, while Shining let out a silent breath in relief. Fortunately, Discord was able to clarify for both of them, “Don’t worry, I don’t plan to only have Sombra changed. This is for all three of you, remember?~”

Cadance and Shining stared back up at Discord, just as he snapped his claw to make his dress disappear. Sombra politely stepped back, which allowed his wife to have some free room to experience the change herself. But before he could start, Discord made sure to say insistently, “I assure you with all my heart, Princess. This transformation process will not harm your foal in any way. It’s purely a cosmetic change, and nothing more.”

Even though she still had her apprehensions, Cadance closed her eyes with a deep breath before nodding up at Discord. “Ummm… A-Alright then. If you’re that confident with your work, then… I accept.”

“Thank you.” Discord smiled warmly at the Princess, and then used his talon to lift her up with his magic. The Princess yelped a little, but tried not to thrash while levitating a couple feet off the floor. Meanwhile, Discord carefully swirled around his lion’s paw, and worked his magic to quickly alter Cadance’s overall appearance. Since she had her eyes tightly closed, not wanting to see her features all change in the blink of an eye, she wasn’t able to see the unified looks of shock Shining and Sombra had by the time she was lowered back to her hooves.

“Ahh, there we go!” Discord looked rather pleased as he smiled down at his creation, and brought her attention towards himself and the mirror. “Go ahead and see how you look as a Commoner for a change~”

“OHMIGOSH!!~”

Cadance’s jaw dropped, and a moment of silence passed as she stared at her alien reflection. Her eyes were now a stunning shade of blue instead of purple, but she still had a luscious coat of pink fur. Her slender figure remained untouched as well, with her pregnant belly fully exposed beneath her barrel; however, her Alicorn wings were no longer present at her sides. Instead of the Princess of the Crystal Empire, all that Cadance saw in the mirror was a blonde mare in her thirties with a model-like figure, who only vaguely looked like her old form for a split-second. When she looked back at her cutie mark, she gasped when she saw it was slightly reminiscent of her heart-shaped blue pendant; after Discord’s transformation, it was now a regular red heart with white wings sticking out from the sides, and a golden halo hovering on top.

“I hope you don’t mind me making your changes less drastic than Sombra’s,” noted Discord apologetically. “I figured it would be be more fun to look slightly familiar in front of the Crystal Ponies~”

Shining and Sombra had no complaints, and were both continuing to stare at Cadance’s new form. The Princess blushed deeply, but still smiled to herself as she stared at her reflection. Much to everyone’s surprise, Cadance huffed before admitting, “Honestly, I kinda look like a distant relative of myself! It’s kinda interesting…”

Since Cadance still had her horn, she lit it up with the same blue aura she had as Princess. She shot Sombra a coy smirk while pulling him in, causing his thick hooves to skid across the crystal floor. Shining’s brows flagged up when he saw the two newly-transformed ponies side-by-side, looking like a legit couple beside Discord’s mirror. And judging by Cadance’s piqued smile, she seemed to think the same thing as she gazed at their reflections. “Hmmm… This actually might work~”

“Exactly!” exclaimed Discord while perched above the mirror like a gargoyle. “With those disguise spells up, nopony will ever think you’re Cadance and Sombra. All they’ll see is a beautiful mare and her husband’s Bull~”

Both of them snickered devilishly from that last part, with Sombra pulling in the pregnant mare with his hoof. “Ooh, I like the sound of that~” His brows perked up while admiring himself in the mirror, looking rather dominant with such a beautiful mare by his side. “Nnfff~ And I gotta say, we look perfect together.”

“Mmmmm~” Cadance leaned in to nuzzle the side of Sombra’s neck, and narrowed her eyes on the mirror with a smile. “Yeah, we actually kinda do~”

“Nnnn…” Shining squirmed even harder in his seat, but tried not to groan too audibly while cupping his crotch. Even though the ponies before him looked like a completely different couple, he still felt rightfully intimidated by how much they were gushing over their appearances. And after seeing how pleased Cadance looked beside Sombra, Shining had to avert his eyes in order to keep his cock from throbbing so painfully inside his little cage.

“Oh, don’t think I forgot about you, Private~” Discord shot an especially sinister smile over at Shining, making sure that he caught the pony’s attention with that rank attached. But as Shining gawked up at the draconequus wide-eyed, Discord made sure to ask, “Oh, Sombra? Might I borrow your little bitch for the last transformation? I promise you it’ll be worth it~”

“Go right ahead~” Sombra may have not looked like the Prince he previously was, but he still exuded a dominating presence when he addressed his Private. “Shining! Get your butt over here this instant!”

“Nnnghhhh…” Shining was blushing hard as he pulled himself up from the couch, and kept his head hung low while walking past the happy couple. Sombra was grinning smugly in satisfaction, clearly loving how much control he still had over the Crystal Empire’s “Prince”. Cadance couldn’t help giggling at how pathetic her former husband looked, which only made Shining cringe more notably behind his blush. However, his attention was soon brought back to Discord while he peered down at him with a grin of his own.

“Let’s see how you look as a more proper cuckold~”

Unlike Cadance, Discord quickly lifted up Shining without warning, and waved about his paw to commence the transformation process. Sombra and Cadance remained beside one another as they watched from the side, intrigued by what the draconequus may have planned. Shining clenched his eyes while he was hovering in midair, not wanting to see himself until it was finished. Unfortunately, as soon as he landed back on the floor, he winced strongly when he heard Cadance and Sombra laughing at him.

“Oh my GOSH!~” Cadance had a hoof over her mouth while snickering, and she looked up at Discord to try and scold him. “Discord, that’s too much!”

“Oh, I strongly disagree!” Sombra was openly laughing with a hoof pointed at the new Shining, and shouted out, “Now that’s how a beta bitch should look!”

Shining whimpered to himself, and kept his eyes closed in worry of what he might see in the mirror. But after taking a deep breath, the stallion reopened his eyes to see the reflection pointed at him. “AAAHHH!!!”

Instead of the fit, attractive stallion that the Crystal Empire saw as their Prince, all that Shining Armor saw was a lanky blue pony with a rail-thin figure. His legs were slender and absent of any muscle, making him look like a scrawny weakling who’d get his ass kicked regularly in high school. He now had a pale blue coat, as well as a short white mane that was thinning at the top. The unicorn looked like he was in his forties, but the lines at the sides of his greyish-blue eyes made him look far older. And when he looked back at his new cutie mark, Shining gasped in horror when he saw a rusted shield on his flank.

“How do you guys like the mane?” asked Discord towards the two attractive ponies in the room. “I considered making him outright bald, but I figured it’d be more pathetic to give him a combover he would try to make look presentable~”

“Ughhhh…” Shining was already doing just that, as he was leaning in close to the mirror and desperately trying to straighten out the thin strands of white hair that just barely covered the maneless region atop his head. “Oh, this looks awful…”

“Thank you!” chirped Discord proudly. “I was wanting to ensure that Sombra looked undoubtedly better than you in every single way~”

Despite the cocky grin across Discord’s muzzle, Shining still looked up at him with a flat glare. Unfortunately, due to how he looked now, Shining just looked like a grumpy neighbor who was upset about having his house teepeed again. Sombra made sure to step in beside his Private, and stood pridefully as he looked at their reflections. “Oh, wow~” Sombra’s smile widened tremendously when he saw the vast contrast in their new appearances side-by-side. “You really do look more appropriate like this, Private~”

Shining hung his head with a measly wince, which looked far more pathetic in the mirror than it did previously. Even Cadance was giggling guiltily, although she tried to rectify that with a quick wave of her hoof. “Sorry, sorry… I don’t want to make fun, honey. But… But jeeze you look like a dork!”

“HA HA HA HA HA!” Sombra was laughing rather boisterously as he hugged Shining from the side, keeping him pinned to his side for the mirror. The muscular pony then grew a more sinister grin, and looked down at his bitch to say, “Ohhhh, you’re gonna get it now~”

Shining whimpered like a complete loser as he tried to look away from Sombra’s dominant grin. Luckily for the beta, Discord spoke up towards Sombra, “Well, let me just finish explaining things, and then I’ll leave you three to do as you wish~”

The three ponies all looked up at Discord, just as he dropped from the top of the mirror to land on the floor. He was now dressed up in a black uniform with a matching hat, and circular glasses as he handed them a stack of papers. “I’ve taken the liberty of making these IDs for all three of you, just to add to the authenticity. I also reserved a room for you all in this very castle, which you can use tonight to sleep.”

Sombra’s smile dampened quite a bit, not liking the sound of sleeping somewhere other than his personal bed. However, he and the others took the time to look through their new IDs, as well as the accompanying cards that went with them.

“Now, Sombra,” began Discord more directly, “your new name is Somber Tone. You’re a successful up-and-coming investor and fitness trainer, who just opened a third gym in Cloudsdale as part of your franchise. You’re visiting the Crystal Empire with Candy Heart, a nurse from Canterlot, and her husband Rusty Shield, who happens to be your top investor for your fitness company.”

Sombra smirked in satisfaction as he looked through his papers, which included several legit-looking business cards and some stunning pictures of himself in his new form. Meanwhile, Cadance and Shining looked less pleased as they looked up at Discord. “Candy Heart?” asked Cadance unamusedly. “I mean, Rusty Shield makes sense for Shining, since he’s meant to be a beta.”

“H-HEY!” shouted “Rusty” with a heavy blush. Fortunately, a sharp jab against the side from Somber’s torso shut him right up. “Ow! Nnnnffffff…”

“Oh, give me a break here!” Discord pointed down at Candy’s identification cards and pointed out, “I went to all this work to help you three and show my support, and you’re upset about a name? You can at least see what else I included in your pack.”

“Hmph…” Candy Heart redirected her stare towards the cards in her aura, and glossed through them with a skewed muzzle. Upon close inspection, she was impressed by how passable the cards looked as genuine identification. Along with her license and nursing badge, she also found some gift cards for some of the Crystal Empire’s nicer restaurants. However, it was a piece of parchment at the bottom of her stack that caused her eyes to widen. “What the…”

She hovered up the paper with her aura, and all three ponies leaned in to read what it said. Rusty gasped with his face paling in terror, while Somber’s face lit up like a colt on Hearth’s Warming Morning.

To whomever it may concern,
This notice is an official notary approved by Princess Cadance and Prince Consort Shining Armor, as part of their Official Relationship Training Course. Candy Heart and Rusty Shield are a married couple who had signed up for the course, and are undergoing therapy to repair their relationship. Last year, Rusty Shield was caught in an affair with a college freshman, and has agreed to allow his wife to start an exclusive cuckold-based relationship with Somber Tone as a means to keep his marriage. Because of the severity of his infidelity, as well as Candy Heart’s valiant efforts in Canterlot Hospital’s Cancer Wing, this notice is to allow the three to do what they wish within the Crystal Empire city limits. Please do not interfere with whatever might happen, even if they cause a public disturbance. This is not only approval from us, but also an issued punishment against Rusty Shield he’s required to abide.
If Rusty Shield refuses any actions ordered by his wife Candy Heart or his Bull Somber Tone, his divorce papers will be instantly processed by Equestrian law. He will also be ordered to surrender his personal bank account, as well as any custody privileges of their daughter.

Under Official Notary by the Crystal Castle,
Prince Shining Armor and Princess Cadance

“Ho… H-Holy cow…”

Candy’s jaw was fully agape, as were Rusty and Somber’s. Rusty looked absolutely petrified, with his blue fur now a ghastly white across his face. Meanwhile, Somber was the first to look up at Discord with unmitigated glee. “Wait a minute! Is that notice actually legit?!”

“It certainly is! I even had it stamped from Shining’s office~” Discord pulled up another stack of papers, which revealed Shining Armor’s name and personal info attached. “Oh, and ‘Rusty’? These are your actual custody papers and bank statements here~”

“WHAT?!?” Rusty snatched the papers with his magic, and frantically looked through them to realize Discord wasn’t bullshitting him. Shining Armor’s bank account papers, marriage license, and even custody papers in Flurry Heart’s name, were all present as part of Discord’s malicious plan. When he looked up at the draconequus in horror, Discord just smirked down at him without a shred of remorse.

“You’re going to submit to him anyway,” he pointed out with his arms crossed over his chest. “Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if deep-down, you truly wanted him to dominate you in front of all the Crystal Ponies. I just wanted to give you that extra incentive to make sure you don’t back out like a coward~”

Rusty’s dropped jaw trembled, and he looked back down at the papers Discord were using as leverage. Candy Heart looked rather unsure herself, and glanced over at the papers before asking, “Wait a minute… You’re actually holding his patronage hostage?!”

“Oh, it’s just a little fire under Rusty’s rump~” pointed out Discord with a cheeky grin. “It’s like walking a tightrope without a safety net. Sometimes you just need it to happen, you know?~”

“Hmmmm…” Despite her apprehensions, Candy stepped back while tapping her chin with a hoof. Rusty stared back at her with an appalled look, offended that his wife was even thinking over such a cruel incentive. But before he could try and stop her, Somber Tone leaned in to whisper into her ear, “Pleeeeeaaaaaase let this happen. I want to make him squirm~ And I know you want that too…”

Candy Heart huffed out through her nostrils, still looking uneasy about implementing such a detail. But after looking back at her “husband,” who was giving her the most pleading look he could muster, all that she could do was scoff with a devilish smirk. “You know what?” She took that stack of Shining Armor’s papers, and handed them back up to Discord. “I’m willing to trust that he understands the consequences~”

Rusty’s jaw nearly touched the floor, looking absolutely shattered by his wife’s agreement. Somber just cackled mockingly at the stallion, and stared him down with an eager grin. “Ohhhh… you better be ready, Rusty Shield~”

“Oh! And before I forget…” Discord removed his uniform with another snap of his claw, and pulled out a small parchment from his ear. He put on some reading glasses before going through the additional details he had prepared. “I also cleared your Royal schedules for today, since neither of you have much planned anyway. A note will be sent to the castle staff and guards, informing them that you guys took an impromptu day-trip to visit Twilight Sparkle. Flurry Heart will be sent to Twilight’s castle with a note, so she’ll be aware of what’s going on and most likely agree to assist and provide an alibi. Your disguises will last for as long as you wish, so don’t worry about them wearing off or becoming undone too early. All you have to do is call out for me, and I’ll reverse them in this very bedroom.” He looked up from his list, and made sure to ask, “Any questions?”

Rusty and Candy blinked a couple times, both of them impressed by the level of thought Discord put into all of this. Somber Tone had no complaints, and merely shrugged with a satisfied grin. When the couple looked back at each other, Rusty was blushing badly with his head hung low. Meanwhile, Candy Heart leaned in with an eager grin, and whispered into his ear, “If you agree to do this, I’ll remove your chastity cage so you can enjoy it just as much~”

Rusty’s eyes widened, and his head perked right up with the promise of giving his cock some freedom. He looked down between his legs, seeing that Discord kept that locked cage firmly over his member. After blinking a couple times in thought, the stallion bit his lip before taking a deep breath. “Ummm… W-Well, I…”

Since he could tell that she was intrigued enough to go with everything, Rusty eventually sighed before looking back up Discord. “I… don’t think we have any questions to ask.”

“Wonderful!” Discord handed Somber the key to their guest room in the castle. “This is on the second floor of the castle, and you’ll find luggage bags inside with your personal items. I really hope that you all have a wonderful day~”

Before he could leave their plane of existence with a snap of his claw, Cadance quickly blurted out, “Oh! Umm, before you go…”

Candy pointed a hoof back at her husband, and sheepishly asked, “I… I can’t exactly remove his chastity cage without breaking it, so… could you possibly assist with this?”

“Oh, that’s no problem at all~” Discord showed no awkwardness at all as he went up to Rusty, and leaned in beneath his torso. Due to his chaotic magic being able to achieve the impossible, he was able to effortlessly slip the chastity cage off the stallion’s member like it was nothing. Rusty gasped loudly, and clenched his eyes before letting out a deep and shuddering sigh of relief. “H-H-Hoooollllllllly fuck~”

“Okay, there we go~” Discord turned his attention back to the other two with a mischievous grin, and gave them a wave goodbye. “Alright! Stay safe, you crazy kids!”

POOF!!

With a burst of colorful smoke, Discord left the room to leave the trio to themselves alone in the Royal bedroom. Rusty Shield looked rightfully panicked, and took a couple shivering breaths as he let the realization sink in. Not only was he in a new identity stripping him of his Royal status, but he was now at the legal whim of his wife and Superior to do whatever they wished. And to make matters worse, both of them were staring right back at Rusty with determined looks on their faces.

“Well, I’m glad Discord was able to undo this for the time being~” Candy held the newly-removed chastity cage in her magic, and walked up to her husband with narrowing eyes. “But don’t get used to it, Shining. As soon as we’re back to our regular selves, this is going back on, and staying on~”

Rusty gulped with a wince, but dutifully nodded in understanding. Even though the idea of going back in the cage felt ominously cruel, he was mostly still relieved to be out of it for now. Unfortunately, the moment Candy Heart leaned down to inspect the stallion’s equipment, she covered her mouth with both hooves to keep from laughing. “PBBBTTT!!!”

“What?!” Rusty instantly looked down, and shrieked like a little girl, “AIIIEEEEE!!!”

It turned out that her offer to remove the cage didn’t really amount to much, since it was revealed that Discord included a micropenis between Rusty Shield’s legs. And to make matters worse, his balls were still at average size, which made his member look even punier in comparison.

“OH MY GOD!” Somber took one look at that measly dicklet before laughing his ass off. He reeled back from the stallion, and covered his eyes with a hoof while tears went down his cheeks. “Aaahhh! That’s the best thing I’ve seen yet!~”

Rusty looked like he was about to cry, and just kept staring at his worthless nub with a couple of saddened sniffs. But before he could properly process the fact that his stallionhood was the size of a tic-tac, Candy Heart took a couple of calming breaths before recomposing herself first. After glancing up at the clock, she quickly trotted over to the bedroom doors. “O-Okay, okay... the Guards most likely aren’t by our doors, so we can easily head to our room without detection. The next rotation will be in ten minutes, so we should be quick to leave the Royal section.”

Rusty and Somber shared a look, with the latter looking a little miffed they were going to sleep in a different room. However, he was also the first to begin following Candy, with the cuckold walking behind him with his head hanging low. Fortunately for the three, barely any Guards were out on patrol as they left their lavish abode, and walked down to the second floor where the guest suites were located. Candy Heart was the first to enter, and was happy to find a room similar to a hotel’s penthouse suite. There were also three small travel bags left on the bed, with appropriate labels to indicate whose was whose. As the mare excitedly went over to see what Discord had packed for them, Somber Tone stopped at the open doorway and turned around to face Rusty.

“And just where do you think you’re going?” he asked the cuck, his eyes narrowing on him with a smug-looking grin. Rusty was taken aback, and froze in place out in the empty hallway.

“Uhhh…” He blinked a couple times before trying to look past Somber. “I-I was… Planning to sleep in the room?”

“Nope!” Somber grinned even wider, and made sure the doorway was fully blocked by his muscular form. “You have that notice from Cadance and Shining, right? That’ll make sure nopony bothers you while you sleep in the hallway~”

“W-WHAT?!” Rusty Shield’s eyes shot wide-open, but his face was quickly covered by the pillow that was thrown into his face. Inside the room, Candy Heart heard enough of her lover’s statement to not only float over a small blanket, but also the official notice she had with her identification.

“Ooh, that sounds fun~” The mare went back to the doorway, standing beside Somber as she eyed Rusty with a playful grin. “Sorry, honey. You agreed to do as we wish, and I think this’ll work as a proper test before morning~”

Since she could see how betrayed and hurt the stallion looked, she made sure to lean in and give him a comforting peck on the cheek. “Besides,” she added in a sly whisper into his ear, “you can probably hear us through the door if you’re quiet enough~”

After giving Rusty his beddings and the notice, Candy Heart trotted back into the room to get in bed. Meanwhile, Somber Tone stood right in place to stare the smaller stallion down. “You hear that?” he asked mockingly. “She doesn’t want you~”

With the way his eyes widened with that last statement, it was clear that Somber intended for that to be said as cruelly as possible. He then took a single step back, and slammed the door right in Rusty Shield’s face.

None of the ponies were able to sleep well that night, but for very different reasons. For Candy Heart and Somber Tone, the two spent a good portion of their evening having loud, passionate sex in their room without any interruption. But for Rusty Shield, who had to craft a makeshift bed with the blanket and pillow right outside the door, most of his time was spent trying to stroke himself to the muffled moans. Unfortunately, even while his tiny nub felt as hard a pebble against his hoof, he eventually realized how useless it was to try and use his miniscule member. By the time he heard the fourth ourasmic moan from Candy inside the room, he eventually gave up and passed out around four in the morning.

A couple of the cleaning staff walked past him in the hall with peculiar looks, but were quick to ignore him after reading the paper left on his pillow. Unfortunately for Rusty Shield, he could only wait until the morning to see what horrors would happen to him next…
