Savage POV

I lay on my belly with my rear in the air. My eyes were closed and breathing heavy as I felt Zitrus thrust his stallionhood into me. With each thrust came a wet sound that mingled with the quiet moans from me and Zitrus

Never ever would have I thought that I would be so keen to sleep with a stallion. And now, I even moved my hips in perfect synchronicity to help him.

Zitrus was standing on his hindlegs and had his front hooves placed on my flanks. He was moving slow but strong. Each thrust went deep in me, and I could feel his full length.

Sure, mares know how to treat a mare. They can do the job better and still hold out for longer. But I had to admit that it was a good feeling to get a very deep “massage”.

If I were to describe the sex I had with Zitrus in just two words, then I would say: Married couple

When I am with Zitrus, we are like a couple that has been married for some years. We have our favourite positions. We know what the other likes. We found the rhythm very quickly.

Now, that might sound boring, emotionless, or even sad, having young love already mature to such a state, it was quite the opposite. We are two ponies who know how to make love to one another in a way that normally takes years to develop.

But of course, that does not mean he is my favourite. I think this is something you learn when being in a herd. Each is different in bed, and you do not start to pick favourites. You start to enjoy the individuality. Besides, this was not about the sex, it was about the feelings you share with each other.

I felt Zitrus getting closer. But he tried to resist the urge to give in and cum in me. He wanted to cum with me but was now moving slower and safer, so as to put off reaching the point of no return.

I did not care. I was close too. I needed a final few good thrusts and I needed them now!

I used my magic to give Zitrus’ backside a gentle but firm shove. Zitrus was so taken by surprise that he nearly lost balance. He fell forward and with him, his dick went very deep inside, and I gave a surprised but lustful gasp.

But that move made Zitrus also lose his concentration. I felt his stallionhood quickly swell in me and a thick warm load filled me. But that was exactly what I needed. I flapped my wings as my velvet walls squeezed tight and I also came. I could literally feel how my marejuice got mixed up with his cum.

We both kept that position until we both felt drained and our genital muscles relaxed. We both felt exhausted. I just let myself plop on the ground, breathing heavily. Soon after I could feel a presence laying on my right side, also out of breath.

Zitrus nuzzled my mane. He loved that and I did too. In general, I liked how much he adored the beauty of us alicorns. But I also know that physical appearance is not the only thing that he cares about…

“Can I ask you something?”

That got Zitrus attention. He knew that I was about to ask a serious question. And I expected nothing more than honesty.

“What is it?”, Zitrus asked.

“Before Blueberry, Crystal and I asked you if we four could make a herd, you were struggling with the choice, who you would pick of us three”, I recalled.

“That’s what I said, yes”, Zitrus agreed.

"But you were actually more tempted to pick Blueberry or Crystal. The only reason us two are together now is because of this herd. Else I would have been your last option. Isn’t that right?”

Zitrus was silent at my words. It was not a shocked silence; it was more of a guilty silence. That alone told me the answer… But I could not hold a grudge against him. Not after I expected him to be honest. I had known the risk of asking for the truth…

“Yes, that is correct”, Zitrus then finally admitted. “Let’s face it, we had a really rough start. You hated me and it took a while to gain your trust. But if I were a pony who made snap decisions on love, i would have asked blueberry out long ago. And that is the point. The longer I waited, the more I saw you change. To a mare I fell in love with. Just like I did with Blueberry and Crystal.

So in other words, when we started our herd, you weren't my first choice, BUT in that moment, I already knew, that you might become one. And since then, my feelings for you only grew. For the Savage you are now.

If you would ask me again, who I would take to be my ONLY mare, Blueberry, Crystal or you, then I would not have an answer again. Because I love all three of you.”

I had to smile at Zitrus' words. I leaned forward and kissed him softly.

“I love you”, I said and wrapped my wing over him as a blanket.

“And I love you, Savage”, he returned and snuggled tight to me.

“Home, sweet home”, Zitrus said as we entered the city.

We had finally reached our destination, New Appleloosa. One of the biggest names in the wasteland. It wasn't a huge city, but it was famous for many things. For starters, their train tracks. New Appleloosa was kind of like the mane station for all trains. Many houses in the city were even built out of old train cars.

Another part was the security the city had. One of the best defenses made this place very safe to live. But the reason why they had this was also because New Appleloosa traded with slavers.

“I nearly forgot that you were born here”, Crystal said and looked around.

I did the same. But for being in a city that worked so close with slavers, the place was… friendly. It was very inviting looking, but that was to be expected, since most of the buildings were made out of junk. But besides that, the mood was calm, and I hadn't spotted any slaves so far

“What was it like to grow up in a city that had a good relationship with slavers?”, I asked Zitrus.

“Let’s say… it was not bad”, Zitrus told. “In fact, it was even a good colthood I had. This place was safe and not poor. They took care of their inhabitants. About the slaves… well, when you’re young, you don’t really notice it very much. You kind of grow up with the fact that there is something like slaves. Trapped ponies or other creatures. It was not often I saw them but still… You get taught that this is how it goes. Maybe that was the reason why I wanted to travel around ever since I was young. I could not bear the idea of being trapped in a place forever. It was thanks to my journeys I saw the brutal truth behind slavery…”

Zitrus lapsed into a long pause. I assumed that he felt the guilt, for never paying attention to the slaves when he was young.

“But I have to admit, this place changed a lot. Last time I was here was some days before I met Blueberry the first time”, Zitrus commented.

“How so?”, Crystal asked.

“Well, it looks different. It looks… better. The houses, the street, even the guard posts. Hard to explain. But it looks like the city made a change. Sure, a lot they had to rebuild after the big fight with the Enclave.”

“The fight with the Enclave?”, Blueberry asked.

We walked through the streets. The inhabitants did not mind that alicorns walked around here. Many did not even pay attention to us.

“Indeed. New Appleloosa was under attack, shortly after the Goddess died. It was a hard battle against the Enclave. Many ponies died there and much got destroyed. They built the city back up, that I can see. But it seems like they gave it more... Flair.”

We came to a monument that was set up in the middle of a crossroads. It was a statue of an earth pony made out of stone. It was aiming with a rife towards the sky. It was impressively made even though it was not big.

“Yes, I heard about the battle from a sister“, Crystal remembered. “Must have been something huge. Were you a part of it too, Zitrus?”

“No”, Zitrus said. “I was on an adventure when it happened. I only got the information when I came back here. The news hit me hard, since I only came back here to visit some pony important. And then you find the city half destroyed with many inhabitants’ dead…”

A depressing mood now hung in the air, so I tried to change the subject.

“And what are we going to do here, by the way?”, I asked.

“We're meeting that important pony I mentioned earlier. My mother”, Zitrus said and stopped in front of the monument.

I wanted to say something when my eyes fell on the inscription of the statue.

IN MEMORY OF THOSE THAT FELL IN THE BATTLE WITH THE ENCLAVE

Author's Note

This chapter I have rewritten many times in my head. It just feels… edgy. But for some reason, I couldn’t come up with a better outcome.
