Shining Armor was a stallion of considerable notoriety. Besides being the first male Captain of the Canterlot Royal Guard in centuries, his fiancé was none other than the ravishing goddess, divinely dubbed Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, or Cadence to her friends. If that weren’t enough, Shining had to deal with the additional title of being the brother to Dusk Shine, Element Bearer, and hero of the land. Luckily, Shining’s reputation as a competent leader was already well established, saving him from having to live in his little brother’s shadow. Even so, that was only a small reprieve in the maelstrom that was his life.

If Shining Armor had to describe his role as a Captain in one word, it would be paperwork. Most foals envisioned the rank and title as spearheading glorious attacks against vicious monsters, but Shining’s obligations demanded that he battle his weight in paperwork every week. This division needed these supplies at this specific time. Why were those supplies not delivered? File the paperwork to launch an investigation. What did the investigation find? File the paperwork to deal with it, and then file more paperwork to declare the matter resolved. Seriously, that last part shouldn’t have taken more than one sheet of paper. Even with a small army of assistants, it still took the colt-sized stallion almost the full day to complete his tasks, and that was assuming he wasn’t called somewhere to stand around and look important while the enemy papers built their strength in his absence.

Of course, the end of the work day did not mean the end of his obligations. Shining liked to set an open-door policy with his troops, wanting them to feel free to approach him with whatever they needed. Sure, it added to his workload, even after his shift ended, but he believed it was better than being aloof and indifferent to his subordinates’ needs. As a result, Shining had amassed a great deal of popularity among the troops in an amount of time that made even celebrities envious.

The doors to his office opened, and Shining used his magic to move a stack of papers aside to see who would dare approach unannounced. “Gleaming?”

“Captain, Lieutenant Gleaming Shield, reporting,” she replied, saluting. She had the exact color scheme as her twin. However, as a mare, she was naturally several times larger. She had more mass in a single, luscious ass cheek than he did in his whole body, a fact that she enjoyed reminding him of at every opportunity. “The Princess requests your company.”

Shining groaned. “Now? My shift literally ended five seconds ago. Can’t she wait until I get home?” Shining whined, the sight of his sister causing his guard to drop and a little of his coltish behavior to come out where his assistants could see. “What could she possibly—Wait, which princess? Remind me, is Luna a queen or a princess?”

“Your fiancé, Sir,” Gleaming confirmed, saying the last word in a way that any sibling would recognize as meaning Dork, or some approximation. “Princess Cadence wishes to see you in her private quarters, and she asked that you make haste. The matter seemed quite urgent.”

Shining didn’t need to look around to know his assistants all wore lascivious smirks. When one was engaged to the Alicorn of Love, certain things were assumed. Worse, most of those things barely came close to the real deal. “W-well, I-I suppose I mustn’t keep her waiting,” Shining stammered as he hopped to the floor from his mare-sized chair and walked around the desk twice his height.

“Should I carry you, then?” Gleaming asked with a shit-eating grin, earning a glower from her twin. “It was only a question.” She stepped aside and motioned for the smaller pony to take the lead, as befit their difference in rank. Her brother walked a mare step ahead of her and to the left, meaning his little legs had to move several times faster just to keep up with her slightly hurried pace. Once the doors closed behind them, Gleaming elaborated, “Honestly, you can be so stubborn sometimes. Mares carry stallions. No pony’s gonna think less of you for it.”

“That’s a lie, and you know it,” Shining dismissed, not even looking at his twin. “I’m a stallion, meaning I have to be better than the best to receive the same treatment as my peers.”

“Yeah, maybe at first, but that was back in the past. Ponies respect you now. Not only did you fix almost every problem with the supply chain after the old Captain stepped down, but you’ve also never lost a sparring match. Mares respect a stallion who can kick their asses.”

“Respect and reputation are fragile things. They can take years to build, but only seconds to destroy. One misstep could ruin me.”

“With all due respect, Sir, if your reputation could survive this, you might be a secret immortal,” Gleaming rebuked while levitating a poster beside her brother’s face.

Shining didn’t look. He fought with every shred of willpower in his tiny body to not look, but that didn’t stop him from seeing it. One of the less enviable aspects of his popularity was discovering that hundreds of ‘motivational posters’ had been distributed among the troops, supposedly to boost morale. At least, that’s what the paperwork insisted after Shining investigated, discovering the even more abhorrent sight of his signature applied perfectly to every sheet in the multi-page application.

“I swear, for the life of me, I don’t remember approving these,” Shining sneered through a clenched jaw.

“Is it so surprising?” Gleaming asked, bringing the poster close to her snoot for inspection. “Everyone says mares are the vain ones, but maybe stallions also have a deep-seated need to strut their stuff. Either that, or you’re a secret exhibitionist. I think Cadence would be fine with either,” she remarked while looking at the image of the blushing white colt with a blue mane, frowning in defiance while using his helmet to cover his crotch. “I swear, pouty never looked so buckable.”

“That’s not even me!” Shining snapped. “It’s not me, and you know it. Everyone should know it. I couldn’t make the photoshoot, so they hired lookalikes to stand in for me and do those… poses.”

“The likeness is passable, Sir,” Gleaming gently countered. “You can barely tell they used magic to buff out these twinks, but I think my favorite is the one where they didn’t quite get all of his tail. There’s a little dash of red that really draws the viewer’s attention to how tightly and desperately it clings between his cheeks to hide the goods. Seriously, these colts, the makeup team, and the director all need raises.”

Hearing Shining huff, Gleaming smirked at her brother, knowing that he could sense her teasing smirk even without seeing it. Being the big twin had its perks. “Don’t tell me you’re jealous. Soldiers come in, think they’re gonna get their boss looking all coltish and cute, only to get some little wannabe pretty colts to fap to instead. Would you rather it be you?”

“I tried finding the ones who put that application together, but they hid their names too well. If I ever get my hooves on them, I’m going to shove their asses on Celestia’s horn and make her cum so hard she blasts them into the sun,” Shining growled, hatred flickering from his body like a flame.

“Okay, first of all, that’s bucking hot,” Gleaming began, storing the poster in her saddle bags. “Wrong, but hot. And second, you know Celestia started this tradition centuries ago. So, unless you plan on shoving the queen’s horn up her own ass—which sounds bucking amazing, by the way—I’m not sure what throwing a tantrum is gonna accomplish. Uh, Sir? Shiny? Are you even listening?”

Shining gave no response. The hate exuding from his form had coalesced into more than a mere magical aura as he aimlessly marched on. Now, even non-unicorns could see the black tendrils flailing like snakes around him. A pair of passing soldiers saluted, but said nothing that might draw the Captain’s attention, fearing the wrath of his bad mood.

However, Gleaming knew this was far worse than that. Her brother’s skills extended beyond paperwork and one-on-one duels. His magical prowess had been the strongest their family had ever seen, being downgraded to second after Dusk’s power was revealed. There were laws that forbade unicorns like these from getting this angry, as the devastation they could unleash would be horrific. And while she was bound by law, Gleaming still respected Shining’s dignity. So, she waited until there were no witnesses to loop a hoof under her brother’s belly and tackle him into a closet.

Acting quickly before he could cast, Gleaming smashed her lips into Shining’s with all her might. Her tongue wasted no time in penetrating her brother’s mouth to dominate his much smaller taster. Meanwhile, she used magic to relieve the small stallion of his cumbersome armor, granting her hoof access to his balls and sizeable schlong. The other hoof kept the stallion pinned to a height ideal for access. Gleaming used the soft part of her hoof to apply tender pressure to her brother’s privates while she roughly handled his lips. Shining might put up a tough front, but he was still a pony. He had needs like everyone else, and Gleaming had been managing her twin’s needs for their whole lives.

Sure enough, the mare’s efforts soon bore fruit as the radiating black flames slowly abated. Shining relaxed, giving himself into his sister’s impassioned kiss while she teased his groin. The lower attention was just enough to get him hard without letting him get anywhere close to climaxing. The familiar flavor of the mare’s saliva helped in easing his nerves. However, Shining Armor was never one to be passive for long.

Leveraging his back against the wall, the Captain of the Canterlot Royal Guard pushed his muzzle between his sister’s lips. Her breath smelled like daisies, and her tongue retracted from his mouth to lick around his snoot. Shining also pushed his (relatively) large cock into his sister’s hoof, trying to take control of his arousal. However, just as he started to find his rhythm, a flash of green light drew the twins’ attention to the closet’s ceiling, where a single scroll fluttered lazily to the floor. It had Cadence’s personal seal.

With her hooves occupied and mouth still around Shining’s muzzle, Gleaming caught the scroll and hurriedly opened it with her magic, holding it so they both could read.

‘Gleaming, your tardiness has been noted, and I can only hope your vigilance has acted in time. Alas, I fear that my negligence is to blame. I took my attention off my dear Shiny for too long, allowing his stress to build. I’d hoped you could discretely bring him to me in time so I could relieve him. However, given that you are not here and I’ve yet to notice any explosions, I’m choosing to believe you did your duty as a sister. If so, you may ask me for anything as a reward. And if this message is too late, then Shining can take solace in knowing measures have already been taken for his sister’s afterlife.

Sincerely

Princess Mi Amore Cadenza’

Pausing as they read, Gleaming eventually pulled her mouth off Shining’s nose, leaving it covered in saliva. “My afterlife? C-can she do that?”

“Alicorns are supposedly goddesses, but they’ve always been frustratingly evasive whenever asked about such details,” Shining huffed, lowering his eyes in shame. “I can’t believe I let myself get that far.”

“You? I’m the dumbass who started egging you on!” Gleaming countered. “Uh, can we please not tell Cadence about that part?”

Shining huffed again, getting his breathing under control. “Honestly, I don’t think you did that much.”

“What, really?” Gleaming asked, taken aback. “As a big sister, I gotta say, I’m a little insulted. Getting a rise out of you is basically my life’s passion, arguably on par with my cutie mark.”

“And dealing with your bullshit is mine,” Shining replied. His twin’s face was still close enough, so he pulled her into a hug and squeezed like her skull was a stress ball. Of course, she let him, even licking his belly fluff in a maternal gesture. “Truth be told, today has been a series of nonstop little annoyances that piled into a massive heap. Late shipments, unexplained tardies, and so on. Yours was merely the last straw.”

“That’s still pretty damn insulting, you know,” Gleaming replied. Pulling Shining from the wall with her hooves, she slid her back against it into a sitting position and held him in her arms. “Knowing my poking fun at your sex appeal was no more annoying than some jerk not explaining her tardy… Well, it makes me feel the need to step up my game.”

“I’d prefer if you didn’t.”

“And I’d prefer not blowing up. So, I think I’m gonna ask for special permission from the princess. Next time you’re at the brink of blowing your top, I’m gonna blow my sisterly love all over your face until you settle down.”

Shining groaned as he made himself comfortable in his sister’s grasp. Her strong arms were as comforting as ever. “I want to protest, but I know it’s pointless. It’s practically a foregone conclusion that Cadence will grant such a request. Additionally, having you act on a royal decree should mitigate, if not outright cancel out any damage to my reputation. I hate it, but it sounds like the best available solution.”

“Funny how she took the time to write all those words, though,” Gleaming noted, still hugging her brother. “I mean, if time was of the essence, shouldn’t she have teleported in and dealt with you herself?”

“Knowing her, she sensed that you had already begun relieving the worst of it, and just wanted to be a little cheeky.” Shining chuckled dryly. “I wonder if I should tell her she’s starting to take after Celestia.”

Gleaming chuckled. “And I thought being your sister was bad, but that’s how you act with the mare you’re gonna marry? Yikes. I’m glad we’re not engaged.”

“Don’t be gross, Glee,” Shining dismissed, finally relaxing his hooves and ending the hug. “You might not believe it, but I have some standards.”

“You’re right. I don’t believe it, Shy,” Gleaming agreed, removing the small pony from her muzzle and setting him between her legs. “So, how ya feeling? Can ya make it to the Princess of Love, or do you need to pop off with me, first?”

“I think the worst has passed,” Shining admitted, catching his twin’s barely noticeable disappointment. “Then again, if you need a little attention…?”

Gleaming beamed. “Well, what I really wanna do is put you on my back and parade you around like the good old days, but we don’t have that royal permission thing yet, so I doubt you’ll go for it.”

“Logical,” Shining agreed.

“On the other hoof, Cadence promised me a reward. Anything I asked. Sounds like a mighty tempting offer, wouldn’t you say?”

Shining frowned in confusion. “What could you ask as a reward that she wouldn’t give you for free? In case you haven’t noticed, she’s not exactly prudish with ponies she likes, and she most definitely likes you.”

“Yeah, she does!” Gleaming cheered with a broad grin. “Remember what happened two months ago?” She whistled. “I was walking funny for almost a whole week.”

Shining chuckled softly. “That is significantly less impressive when one finds out you kept visiting her every night throughout that week. As I recall, you only recovered because Celestia called Cadence away for a private meeting.”

Gleaming blinked. “In what way is that less impressive? I went six straight nights with an alicorn without going insane or dying. I’m freaking awesome!”

“Those rumors are grossly exaggerated. Cadence is good, but I doubt she can drive a pony insane.”

Gleaming snorted incredulously. “Seriously? You don’t think the Princess of bucking Love doesn’t have some super-duper sex magic to drive ponies bonkers if she really wants to?”

“I feel like we’ve become side-tracked,” Shining informed, glancing at his armor pieces scattered across the floor. “If you can be discrete, I know one way you could carry me to Cadence.”

***

Moments later, Gleaming Shield departed the closet, looking none the worse for wear. Her armor was neatly in place, her posture left no room for criticism, and one would have needed a thermal imager to detect the faint warmth in her cheeks. Truly, even an extended glance at the mare would reveal nothing out of the ordinary. Her tummy didn’t even have the tell-tale signs of a colt inside. Unless somepony had seen her and Shining enter the closet together, none would suspect he was still with her as she dutifully marched to Cadence’s room.

“This isn’t what I had in mind,” Shining grumbled as the mare’s anal muscles contracted tightly around his small and easily swallowable form.

“Not my problem,” Gleaming cheerfully remarked, casting a low-tier glamour to hide her mouth movements, the voices from her body, and the noise of clinking colt armor from her saddle bags. “Having you up my plot means no one can see your little bulges in my tummy. Hah, would you listen to me? Dusk and Barb aren’t even here, but I’m still saying it.”

“I can tell you cast a glamour,” Shining curtly reminded as the soft and squishy muscles undulated around his body. It was like the pull of an esophagus swallow, but not strong enough to actually send him deeper into the mare’s gut. Instead, it was more like a firm massage that seemed inexplicably targeted on his erection. “Why not just extend that to your belly?”

“Too obvious. Too much magic in the glamour gets it noticed by more adept unicorns,” Gleaming dismissively explained as though her twin didn’t already know. “Not a problem in civilian life, but this is the castle. If a guard goes strutting around with a suspicious glamour, well, you know the protocol.”

“You’ll be dispelled and possibly detained, making us even later,” Shining conceded. “I can almost hear Cadence’s mocking laughter.”

“Also, she might withdraw my reward,” Gleaming added. “So, I think we all agree that it is in everyone’s best interest for the Captain of the Guard to make himself nice and cozy in his sister’s asshole,” she explained with a grin that was practically begging to be punched. “By the way, why aren’t you wiggling?”

“We’re supposed to be discrete, remember?”

“Pssh! Look who you’re talking to. I can handle one measly colt getting his rocks off in my big, round, perfect plot.” Despite Gealming’s boasts, she hoped Shining didn’t call her bluff. Truthfully, she was still a little worked up from the closet, and having her beloved brother wiggling even this much in her sensitive colon left her at risk of walking funny. Mares always walked funny because of the colts they vored, but such things while on duty were against regulations. Granted, breaking the rules just made everything more exciting, but that also added to the problem of the mare’s arousal. Each step caused Shining to shift, even if only a few centimeters, and the friction sent waves of pleasure through the mare. This was bad. She needed a distraction. “Hey, have you heard anything new from Dusk and Barb?”

“Cadence has shared Dusk’s weekly reports, but only Barb has bothered with personal letters.”

“Shame on her,” Gleaming chided. “She should really—Wait, I was gonna say something about making Dusk write more letters, but that makes it sound like she’s being held accountable for him. Is that sexist?”

“A little. However, in Dusk’s case, I think it’s fair. You know how he gets,” Shining replied, also grateful for the distraction as the soft anal walls sensually undulated against his male meat. He needed to avoid all sexy thoughts, lest he trigger a premature ejaculation in his sister’s ass. Not only would he spray himself with his own seed, but Cadence would have more than words for his failure to deliver her favorite treat.

“She’s really like his other half, huh? Kinda like you and me?” Gleaming mused.

“Just because you sleep with my future wife, that hardly makes our situations similar. My impression is that Barbara will join Dusk’s herd, which I suspect we all saw coming.”

“True,” Gleaming agreed, chuckling.

“As for us, you’ll eventually have to find a different stallion to start voring,” Shining firmly reminded.

“While also true, it kinda sounds like you’re implying that I’ll ever stop voring you. Happy to disappoint if that’s what you were hoping for, but that ain’t happening, Shy. No matter what my real herd is like, I’m gonna be gulping you down for the rest of our lives. And if they’re the kind of ponies that are worth herding with, they’ll likewise maintain happy and wholesome relationships with their families.” She giggled. “Oh, do you think Cadence will be open to an orgy with all our herds? Mine, yours, and Dusk’s? We could swap stallions and have all kinds of fun with fun with Barb and your former babysitter.”

“She wasn’t my babysitter!” Shining snapped, momentarily losing his composure. He could almost feel Gleaming’s triumphant grin as she once again proved how easy it was to get under his skin. “She was Dusk’s babysitter. I merely… supervised.”

“Is that what you call staring at her ass when you thought no one was looking?”

“Glee!”

“What? It’s not like I didn’t do the same. You’d have to be nuts to ignore an ass like that. Speaking of which, we’re here.”

“Finally!” Shining groaned, prepping himself for expulsion from his sister’s backside. He heard the doors open and close, but suspiciously felt no clenching from her rectal muscles.

“Your Highness,” Gleaming greeted with a respectful bow, and turned to present her booty. “I’ve brought the goods. Also, your boyfriend.” She gave her white, rounded booty a tantalizing jiggle for emphasis.

Cadence snorted a laugh as she sat on a plus-sized butt cushion at her expensive and elaborately crafted tea table. “Well done. Please, have a seat.”

“Just me or both of us?”

Cadence shrugged. “Whichever you prefer.”

“Cadi!” Shining shouted.

“Goodness, did you hear something?” Cadence asked, looking around as her ears flicked. “It sounds like an ungrateful little colt is failing to show his sister proper appreciation for her brave and selfless action.”

“Hehe, yeah. So selfless that it’s a miracle my thighs are still dry,” Gleaming joked as she sat beside the much larger pink mare. “You know, I’ve always been on the bigger side as far as unicorns go.”

“Indeed. You’re practically built like an earth mare,” Cadence agreed while blatantly eyeing up the scrumptious white snack.

“There aren’t that many creatures that make me have to crane my head back to look them in the eye,” Gleaming continued, flirtatiously batting her eyelashes at the alicorn. “Lucky for me, they’re all a bunch of smoking hot babes, so I don’t mind putting in the extra effort to look.”

“Hehe, flatterer,” Cadence tittered. “What about you, Shiny? Do you also feel blessed to be surrounded by such large and attractive females?”

“I would be if I could see any of them.” Grunting and no longer seeing a need for discretion, Shining twisted his body, building up tension like a clenched spring, only to release and violently twist, sending shockwaves of friction through Gleaming’s anal passage, making her gasp and fall over.

“Ch-cheater!” growled the white mare as drool dribbled around her chin.

“Not true,” Cadence authoritatively countered. “As a stallion displeased with his position, he has every right to make his complaints known in whatever way he chooses.”

“Hey, I thought you said I could keep him,” Gleaming whined, her heart sinking as she felt Shining gearing up for another strike.

“I said the choice was yours. I never said I’d save you from making the wrong one,” Cadence explained with a sinister, sadistic smile.

“Buck it! Fine, you can come out!” Gleaming fretfully cried. Luckily, Shining didn’t release his anal attack, but remained prepped to do so. Not wanting to provoke the tiny terror, the mare adjusted her position with her head down and ass high in the air, pointing at Cadence. Even if she was in distress, that was no excuse to overlook common courtesy, especially to royalty. Gleaming clenched her anal muscles, even pulling one cheek aside to maximize the princess’ viewing pleasure. Grunting, she felt her pucker dilate as her brother’s snout poked out. Her voice occasionally hitched as she felt Shining impatiently work his hooves to help himself out, erratically touching her rectum in ways that made it hard to focus. However, Gleaming dared not voice any protest, especially not in front of these two. A mare had to protect her pride, after all.

“Welcome back to the land that doesn’t smell quite as much like ass as where you came from,” Cadence invited with open arms, tittering as a smaller, more masculine-shaped version of Gleaming’s head poked out of her own pucker.

“I swear, I’m going to go back in time, find whoever planted the idea that you were funny in your head, and strangle them,” Shining growled. His head wagged as he threw his whole body into lurching motions. Eventually, he wiggled far enough out to free a leg, so he pressed his hoof into his sister’s tensed, muscular ass cheek. He didn’t notice how the flesh compressed under pressure, and he definitely didn’t mentally remark on how the level of compression denoted that Gleaming’s booty had a near-perfect ratio of fat to muscle, making it one of the most prime plots of land in Equestria. No, Shining definitely didn’t care about any of that; his sole priority was pulling himself free.

“Such an eager little poop trying to be born,” Cadence joked, making Gleaming snicker.

“All mares think they’re funny, but your joke library is grossly undersized,” Shining grunted, now using two hooves to pull free. He’d managed to pull out to his waist, only for the butt cheeks to crash shut around him, once more sealing every part of his little body below his snout, but the Captain remained unfazed. “Birthing little poops, you must appreciate this extra shade, let’s play dentist, and that’s just what I’ve observed in the last hour.”

“A mare asked you to play dentist?” Cadence asked, slightly surprised.

“No, I overheard my door guard talking about her little sister getting her cutie mark.” Shining grunted again, but his sister’s ass cheeks were pressed tighter than her colon, granting him precisely zero wiggle room. Despite his efforts being so thoroughly frustrated, the little stallion was merely annoyed. After all, this was hardly the first time he’d been in this position. “That little sister has now set her eyes on a colt in class.”

“That’s usually how it goes,” Cadence mused. Standing on her long, elegant legs, the tall mare gracefully strutted toward the white unicorns, batting bedroom eyes as she noticed the moisture pooling around Gleaming’s hooves. “Most fillies take their cutie mark’s appearance as the signal to start hunting boys. However, it distresses me to see that, in some cases, fillies develop an obsession with their brothers, thereby neglecting more proper romantic pursuits,” she stated while observing the white snoot poking out of the great white ass cheeks.

“I said something similar earlier,” Shining added, keeping his tone even. “Out of all my siblings, my twin is the only one without any herding prospects. Even our little brother has more girlfriends than her.”

“Hey, are you two colluding to get rid of me?” Gleaming accused.

“Simply stating observations,” Cadence casually dismissed as her hoof tossed her mane to the side. Lighting her horn, the alicorn formed a tactical wedge between Gleaming’s clenched cheeks, creating a tube straight to her target. She then demonstrated her earth pony strength by wrapping one hoof around the white mare’s waist, magically discarding most of her armor, and lifting her butt closer to face level. Licking her lips as she beheld the small stick extended from within the mighty cheeks, Cadence left her fiancé to his assy prison while she dove in and wrapped her lips around her beloved’s cock. Her pleasured moans sent rumbles through both twins’ bodies.

“Gah! Hey, no fair,” Shining grunted, resuming his escape efforts. “You can’t do this while I’m—nnngh!—t-trapped!”

“Can’t is a pretty strong word,” Gleaming giggled as she felt the pink, slender snout press between her cheeks. Even while being held almost upside-down in the alicorn’s powerful grip, the white mare kept herself steady to avoid interrupting the alicorn’s fun. Besides, it gave Gleaming a chance to be belly-to-belly with a princess. Their teats weren’t aligned, but it still felt pleasant to grind hers against the pink mare’s soft and supple chest. “Clearly, Cadi isn’t familiar with that one.”

“I certainly am,” Cadence refuted, her voice taking on an ethereal warble despite her lips remaining thoroughly occupied with her fiancé’s penis. “I simply choose to ignore silly things.”

“L-like my request for—ahhh agh—a-agencyyy,” Shining groaned, fighting to hold back his orgasm, but Cadence was too good. Her tongue swirled his shaft precisely how he liked, and her magic pulled double-time as a tender grip encased his little balls, juggling them.

“You are a pretty silly guy,” Gleaming teased.

“No, that part is fine,” Cadence countered, sounding regal and composed despite her panting, lustful expression being mostly hidden within Gleaming’s butt. “Aspiring to be more than your station is commendable, and makes you very attractive. No, the silly part is telling me to not do something we all clearly enjoy when it serves no purpose to hold back.”

“Gaaah!” Shining gasped, feeling his cum erupt from his shaft, only to be immediately vacuumed away by the alicorn’s ravenous and lustful hunger.

Gleaming also moaned, feeling a small, sympathetic orgasm that added to the pool of sex juices around her hooves. Hoping her brother and future sister-in-law could smell it, she finally relaxed her butt and released her twin.

Shining fell forward like a helpless ragdoll, right onto Cadence’s shoulder. Mindful of her loving eyes upon him, the stallion hurried to regain control of his breathing to avoid looking weak. However, that didn’t stop the mare from cradling him in her arm like a newborn while gently setting Gleaming down. Shining fought the temptation to nod off to sleep in the pink mare’s loving care. Lucky for him, he had practice with being stubborn.

“Why keep fighting? I hope it’s not to impress me,” Cadence said as she carried her stallion back to her cushion, surprising both twins when she didn’t set him on it before sitting. “I know you’ve had an emotionally trying day. Why not let me be a mare and ease my stallion’s woes?”

“I think Gleaming already handled the worst of it. She’s pretty good at taking care of me,” Shining shamelessly admitted. He might have been a stallion striving for respect, just like Dusk, but these mares were family, and even the strictest and most impassioned ponies had to at least let their guard down around family.

“Practice makes perfect,” Gleaming agreed, walking over and planting her butt on Cadence’s seat, brushing cutie marks and making both mares shiver with naughty delight. Gently, she pushed until the alicorn gave her room, and the white mare pressed against the pink mare’s side as they both stared lovingly down at the white stallion.

“I swear, if it’s the last thing I do, I’m getting you a boyfriend,” Shining grumbled.

“Oh-ho-ho; sounds fun. Can I help?” Cadence eagerly asked.

“You might as well just surrender,” Shining warned upon seeing his sister’s impertinent expression. “The alicorn of shipping has set her sights on you. Speaking from experience, you can trust me when I say there is no escape.”

Snorting, Gleaming pulled away and cast defiant sneers at the ponies taking a needless interest in her perfectly healthy and not-at-all-lacking love life. “Challenge accepted!”

Author's Note

In this installment, we introduce Gleaming Shield. While usually the name of Shining Armor’s sex-swapped alter ego, I thought it’d be fun to have both characters coexist as twins. Sexual dimorphism still ensures there’s a massive size difference between the pair, but apart from that, they’re virtually identical.

For Gleaming’s personality, I took Barbara as a base, but made her more playful. Shining is much more emotionally well-adjusted, so he doesn’t need as much protection as Dusk, freeing Gleaming to have more sisterly fun at her brother’s expense. And by sisterly, I mean covert and overt flirting, as she’s horny as Hell for the little guy. However, that’s perfectly normal and wholesome in this world, so no one bats an eye. At least, as long as they keep things professional while in public. Then again, the word ‘professional’ probably has a slightly different meaning in this Equestria than in the real world.

Further, this is our first time seeing Cadence as the only alicorn in the room. Despite being the straight mare when the others are around, she’s free to let her hair down and be more playful when she’s objectively the most powerful being in the room and effectively free from all consequences. Also, when she’s around those she trusts. That’s also a big part of it. She’s definitely not a secret super-villain scheming in the shadows and waiting for her moment to strike. At least, no more so than the other alicorns.

Lastly, I want to clear something up in case there’s any lingering confusion. Celestia and Luna are the top rulers of Equestria, making them queens. Cadence is physically powerful, but has fewer stately obligations, so she’s still just a princess.
