Author's Notes:

Sorry for the wait for this and the next chapter - got a bit ill and couldn't focus!

“Take that you bug!”

“Nice try Shining, but it’ll take more than that for a pathetic pony to beat me! Try one of these for size!”

The Crystal Princess woke up from her afternoon nap to hear shouting coming from the adjacent room, death threats and taunts being thrown between her husband and their guest. She causally stretched out and trotted over to where the sounds of magic blasts were sounding out.

Cadence poked her head into the ‘Stallion Cave’ to see the two creatures battling furiously…on the PonyStation, the 3D soundsystem accidently cranked up high as the remote had slid underneath Shining Armour, and neither player willing to distract themselves by attempting to reduce the sound level.

“Egh, you two can be any more foalish?” Cadence rolled her eyes as she levitated the remote and turned the volume back down. The pairs focus didn’t waver from the fighting game they were playing, their hooves frantically working the controllers.

“Hey Sweetie, sorry that we woke you, but this has turned into a decent fight…for once”

“Yes, after having the distinct advantage of years of practise, I’m finally about to win my first bout!” Chrysalis replied through gritted teeth.

“You haven’t beaten me yet” Shining looked like he was actually sweating from the effort.

Cadence looked at the screen to see two characters in constant movement, attacking, counter-attacking and blocking in a seemingly endless ballet. It had beauty in its own way, and she would have been impressed at the skills of the players, had she not found the whole thing so immature.

“Really, tomorrow you leave the Crystal Empire and this is how you plan to spend the final day?”

Chrysalis didn’t move her head but her ears fell a little “I just wanted to beat Shining one time before I left!”

“And I’m not going to let you” Shining half joked back as he blocked Chrysalis sneaky attack, before starting his own.

“But why aren’t you in my form?” Cadence asked “I thought Shining liked the idea of playing his silly games with me!”

“I only take your form when we playing on the same side…” Chrysalis spoke as she tapped furiously on the controller “…he couldn’t stand the idea of being competitive against you, why won’t you JUST DIE!”

“Awwww, that’s so sweet!” Cadence sighed and gave her husband a peck on the cheek, who’s eyes didn’t stray from the game. Despite the distraction of his beautiful wife, with an impressive flurry of hoof movements he finished off Chrysalis character. He dropped his controller, turned and picked up one of Cadences hooves and kissed it. Putting on a corny old fashion accent followed up with “That win was for you, ma lady”

“Gah! One more battle, come on Shining I have to beat you.” Chrysalis begged “Perhaps we should try random characters?”

“No, I think Cadence is right, it seems silly to waste the final hours cooped up in here!”

“You’re only saying that so I don’t get a chance to beat you!” the changeling sulked, causing Cadence to giggle a little until Chrysalis gave her a stare.

“Look, next time you visit when you’ve had plenty of time to practise we can play again” Shining put a hoof round the sulking alicorns shoulder “Or if we meet up in Canterlot, we can play on Luna’s console. Not against Luna of course!”

“Yes, she is freaky when it comes to video games!” Chrysalis looked over to Shining who also had the same look as she did, a mixture of awe and pure fear in his eyes “It’s like she turns into Nightmare Moon or something when she plays…yet snaps right back to her cheerful self right afterwards!”

“Is she really that bad?” Cadence asked a little shocked

The two turned to her and Shining spoke “You have no idea…the room falls to icy coldness, her mane goes dark and her eyes turn into shimmer sources of pure light!”

“Really?” Cadence eyes widened in fear.

The pair burst out laughing and Cadence crossed her arms, fed up at always being the butt of jokes at the pair expense. Given how the three of them had gotten off on the wrong hoof, it was refreshing to see how much they were all friends now. Shining saw his wife was upset and so stood up and gave her a kiss “Oh darling, that may not be true, but she still makes a scary sight to see her so caught up – you wouldn’t want to get in her way in any case!”

Chrysalis stood up and stretched out after spending so long in the same position, the satisfying sounds of joints popping filling the room “So…what should we do?”

“What do you want to do Chrisy?” Cadence asked their guest, only to be met with a familiar smile and soft eyes. Cadence blushed a bit as the changeling's gaze scanned across her body “Really?”

“Well, it may be my last chance for any intimacy for a while” Chrysalis cooed “and who wouldn’t want to spend time with the Princess of Love?”

“I know I certainly wouldn’t” Shining chipped in, planting a kiss on his wife’s check “I think I can share my precious Cadence with you one more time!”

Cadence smiled “Okay then, why don’t you two freshen yourselves up and join me in the bedroom when you ready?”

Cadence was lying on the bed waiting for her husband and their guest to finish getting themselves ready, and when the pair entered the room her eyes widen a little “Two Shining Armours'?” she gasped.

She got up, trotted over to the pair and looked them both over. The stallions stood in silence, albeit with a smile on their faces, as the mare studied every visible inch of them. She even traced a hoof over his sheathed stallionhood, eliciting the same response of a soft moan from both of the ponies.

Both versions of her husband slowly walked forwards without exchanging words, lifted Cadence up with their hooves and carried her towards the bed. Their silent intent was obvious, and as much as Cadence would hate to admit it, she was looking forwards to seeing what the pair were going to do to her They gently laid the pink princess down on the bed, lowering her gently on her back with the princesses upper body supported by cushions in order to relieve any pressure on the wings, already unfurling with desire.

One of the pair then stood over Cadence and started planted kisses on her chest, leaving damp patches behind on her fur as he slowly worked his way down her body. The other just lay next to the mare, gently stroking her mane. The kisses proceeded downwards and went in between her two teats, the princess half disappointed that they were missed but the next kiss a mere hair breath from her marehood showed that there was only one destination in the stallions mind. She braced herself as the first lick of Shining's long flat tongue made its way from the bottom of her slit up and over her covered clit, causing the princess to shudder with joy.

Her real husband had decided to go first, and the familiar sweet taste and musky scent of his wife soon filled his senses as he set to work in his familiar pleasurable task of satisfying his beautiful bride. Of course task was the wrong word; it was his duty to bring delight to his Princess; a duty of love, a duty of passion. He expertly probed his tongue into her marehood, enjoying the juices starting to flow from within. He delved deeper in and his muzzle began to make contact with Cadences button.

Under the expert attention of the stallion of her dreams, Cadence soon reached the height of bliss and came, releasing fluids over Shining’s mouth and muzzle. The stallion lapped up as much of the sweet nectar of his wife as he could before continuing his focus on her marehood. With no let up in the stallions ministrations, before she knew it Cadence fell off the cliff again for her second orgasm, the Shining at her head comforting her by brushing her mane with his hoof.

Cadence realised that the stallion at her crotch was unrelenting in his pleasuring of her, seemingly ignoring at what point of the pleasure cycle the princess was at. Her mind soon became too overwhelmed to work out when one orgasm finished and the next began. After what must have been a dozen peaks of pleasure, Cadence found Shining’s actions start to slow, the stallion massive energy reserves starting to dwindle as the tongue was one muscle that wasn't trained by the royal guards.

With some unspoken command between them, the Shining at her head moved down toward the other and in an effortless movement took over from the first, who made his way up to start stroking his lover mane. The break between the first tongue and muzzle leaving and the second starting was too small for Cadence to gain even a moment to catch her breath as the new Shining molested her intimate area with new-found energy, quickly pushing Cadence over the edge again.

She looked down to see her husband, no idea if it was the real one or the changeling, continuing to focus his whole attention on her marehood. A little bit of excitement flushed through her as she thought about the power she was having over the stallion who loved her.

But who really had the power – she felt completely helpless to stop what was happening to her, but equally the stallions seemed totally committed in bringing ecstasy to her without a thought of her own. Ultimately as the pleasure built up to its crescendo again she decided it didn’t really matter – her, Shining, Chrysalis were all acting in union here to bring pleasure to the the embodiment of love known as Princess Mi Amore Cadenza.

Chrysalis had by now learnt what brought the most pleasure to her former rival, and used all that knowledge to match the real Shining prowess. Keeping her tongue in Cadence marehood, she used her muzzle to rub and tease the pony’s clit, which by now was fully engorged. The temptation to use her magic to extend the tongue to longer proportions and really explore this treasure cave was high, but she managed to resist - The sweet ambrosia released by the Princess on each peak was more than enough reward.

The second stallion’s actions were indistinguishable from the firsts, and Cadence rode wave after wave of pleasure. Her body’s innate energy was fuelling the passion, and the princess soon realised that she was incapable of focusing her mind onto magic. Cadence tried to speak, but she was just too caught up to be able to focus her mouth and throat into producing anything rather then moans.

As the second shining began to fade like the first, the pair switched positions as efficiently as the first time, one tongue replacing the other in what felt like a blink of an eye, at least to an immortal. Cadence tried to sit up to gain some form of control back but the Shining who made his way up to her head gently laid her back down. There was no force in the action, just a gentle reminder to relax and let this happen, which the alicorn was more than happy to oblige as the pair stroked her mane and marehood with tender care.

The pair continued with their tasks for more time then Cadence could work out, and the very notion of time itself seemed to evaporate. No sooner one of them slowed, the other took his place with gusto, an endless barrage of attention overwhelming the mare. Cadence rode wave after wave of pleasure, her body rolling from the peak of one orgasm into the climb towards the next, seemingly no lull or break between for her to recover in. Whilst the pair had used magic and bondage to achieve similar results, having the continuous physical sensation of her husband was incomparable to anything she had ever felt before.

Eventually both stallions were too exhausted to continue and the real Shining slowly brought Cadence down from her latest peak. Cadence opened her eyes, and she couldn’t remember the last time she was able to do so. But it must have been a while as Celestia’s day was making way for Luna’s night, just currently in that equilibrium phase known as twilight. It clicked that she must have been in a state of constant arousal and indeed orgasm for more than four hours, a new record for the couple.

Cadence lay there, exhaustion finally catching up with her as her body started flushing out the hormones that had been swirling around her essence for many hours. One of her husband went and brought over drinks for the trio, and the three of them lay together on the matrimonial bed catching up with the lost fluids.

“My, that was indescribable” Cadence finally broke the silence, looking between the two stallions either side of her, still unable to tell them apart. All she could tell by looking over the twins was that Shining’s stallionhood was eager to unsheathe itself after hours of arousal. Well, what sort of wife would she be if she let that continue, so deciced dhe would have to do something about that. After making sure the three of them had all finished their drinks, Cadence spoke again “So, what should we do now?” Cadence asked in the most innocent yet sensual tone that she could muster

The Shining's looked at each other and the one to her left spoke. “Hmmm, I wonder what would we should do with two stallions ready and eager to mate with you?”

“Both…at the same time?” Cadence eyes grew a little in excitement, her exhausted body seemingly becoming renewed at the idea of another new experience.

“Well, I think we are due our reward after what we just did!” the one on her right spoke. “But of course if you are going to pleasure us, you have to decide which you want where!”

“But I don’t know which one is the real you…oh, that’s the point isn’t it?”

The two Shining’s just looked at each other and rolled their eyes “Mares!”

Cadence picked up a pillow and threw it at one of them, and the stallion just let it hit him in the face. “Oh, we won’t give it away by using our magic. Now, pick which one of us you want to suck, and which one you want to buck.”

Cadence almost blushed at the salty language, as despite being a bit of a minx, she didn’t like to talk about that sort of thing, even to her husband who had just pleasured her all afternoon. “Well, I suppose that you – “she bopped the nose to the one on her the left “- can…buck...me whilst you are the one I get to…suck” she bopped the nose to the one of the right. The pair of stallions smiled at each other, and Cadence wished she knew which one was the real one. She would have preferred her real husband in her marehood, but then pleasing him intimately with her mouth and tongue also pleased her.

The trio quickly rearranged themselves with Cadence kneeling on the bed, with Shining Armour behind her, and the other lying backwards underneath his wife’s muzzle. The stallion looked over Cadence’s marehood and noted it was still slick from all the juices and salvia from earlier. So he knew the mare was ready for him, and therefore pressed his throbbing stallionhood into the warm embrace of the royal lips.

The Princess knew every each of her husband’s stallionhood, every curve and vein, and so she took it in her mouth like a familiar friend. She flicked the tip with her tongue, and plunged her lips around its shaft, taking a fair amount of it into her before having to draw back, before repeating the action, hearing satisfied grunts of pleasure from the stallion laying below her.

Meanwhile, the stallion taking her marehood kept a slow and steady rhythm, eager to release the excitement that had built up within him during the hours of pleasuring the beautiful mare, but wanting to extend the pleasure for as long as possible. Cadence’s body was trying to milk the intruder as much as possible, her muscles seemingly wanting to hold onto the stallionhood after hours of orgasms.

Cadence knelt there feeling complete fulfilled, as well as being filled by the two copies of her husband. She loved Shining Armour with every fibre of her being and knew that after millenniums of searching she had found her one true soulmate, and wanted to spend every single minute of his life together.

She hadn’t forgotten that one of the stallions taking pleasure from her was in fact the Queen of the changelings, but that fact also spoke deep into her soul. A former enemy, one that had personally attacked her and everything she held dear, having been reformed and indeed brought into the very bosom of their marriage bed, all due to the power of love and friendship – it was almost the definition of everything Cadence stood for in this world.

Without any input from the alicorn, Cadences horn began to glow in a luminance that nopony had seen before. The Shining Armour who was bucking the Princess was in fact Chrysalis, and her mind quickly worked out what was happening. Dropping her voice back to it’s natural form she barked at the other stallion “Shining, quick, come and take over”

Shining pulled his stallionhood out of his wife’s now slack jaw. Cadence had seemed to stop pleasuring him a few moments, her focus seemingly shifted onto something else and he only now noticed the magic radiating off her horn “Chrysalis, what’s going on?”

“Get here now, quickly, we don’t have much time. I’m sure Cadence would want you to do as I say”

Cadence continued to moan and emit wave after wave of magic from her horn, and as a red blooded stallion Shining didn’t need too much encouragement to make love to his beautiful Princess. Her rolled from under the Princess and moved down the bed, Chrysalis removed herself from Cadence and Shining started making love to his wife, his stallionhood easily sliding into the mares slick entrance.

Chrysalis moved up to Cadence head, dropped her disguise and started funnelling her magic into Cadences horn, adding her own green aura into the Princess’s “Come on Cadence, just a bit longer, just a tiny bit longer”

“What on Equestria is going on?” Shining grunted as the pleasure that had built up inside him all afternoon threatened to overwhelm him.

“No…time…to…explain” the changeling panted in exhaustion, obviously being drained of her magic quickly in whatever Spell she was assisting Cadence with “Shining…you need to…finish this soon”

After spending hours in pleasuring and watching his wife come more times than he could keep track of, and with a half completed blow-job fresh in his mind, the stallion was on the verge already. Shining Armour and Cadence came together in perfect union, magic being emitted from all three horns present combining into one whole mass of multicoloured plasma swirling around the bedchambers before rushing back and thundering into Cadences orgasm hit body, causing her to raise off the ground is if being levitated.

The crystal ponies looked up towards the castle at first with concern at the display of energy being released from up high, but as a wave of pure love spread over the kingdom they all decided nothing bad can have happened, and went about their evening.

Cadence fell down back down into the bed, and Chrysalis just lay next to her, gently brushing her mane “Sleep Cadence, I think you need it”

Hours had passed and Cadence lay still on the bed, a very satisfied look on her face, and her arms wrapped around her belly. Shining was curled up behind his wife, also napping through exhaustion whilst Chrysalis sat on a nearly chair, keeping watch over the Royal couple along with some guards.

Shining Armour awoke and gave his wife a soft kiss, but it didn’t wake Cadence from her slumber. He looked up and saw Chrysalis and a couple of guards in the room, keeping a watch over them. Shining got out a bed and turned to the Changeling “Queen Chrysalis, what’s going on?”

“The guards, Prince Armour? They came to enquire if everything was okay and I asked them to stay. I wanted to make sure there was backup for me in my watch over the Crystal Prince and Princess’s safety” Chrysalis replied, bowing as she did.

Shining had no idea what that meant, but knew something was up “You are dismissed; I will stand guard with the Queen.”

“Yes, Crystal Prince” The guards bowed, and left the room.

As soon as the doors were shut, Shining turned back to the changeling “Chrysalis, what the buck happened earlier?” the stallion asked in pure confusion.

“You two were out cold once we were done, and so somebody had to watch over your safety whilst your bodies recovered” The changeling laughed a little and gave shining a reassuring hug “Cadence will still be asleep for a few hours yet. Nothing can wake her, and nor should we even try”

“But did we really need the guards to see us sleeping?” the stallion blushed slightly.

“Our light display from earlier may have been noticed by others rather then just your subjects, and I didn’t want to take any risks in case you were attacked”

“Chrysalis, what actually happened? That was no normal orgasm, even for magically enhanced ones!”

The changeling smiled again “Shining, I presume you know about reproduction?”

“Of course Chrysalis –“ shining rolled his eyes “- I may not be immortal but I’m not some young silly colt”

“Oh yeah, so you know about mares cycles” Chrysalis tone was one of a little defensiveness at the stallion tone

“Yes, they have a cycle of being in heat…” he replied a little annoyed again

“And the princesses such as Cadence?” the Queen interrupted with a smirk.

That stumped Shining for a second “Well, they don’t suffer from going into heat. I believe I was told by Celestia herself it was practically impossible…and that if she ever displayed the symptoms that it must be an evil magic at work.”

“It’s true that us immortals doesn’t have the same cycles as mortal mares, which is both a blessing, but also a curse.”

“Yes, Cadence and I have spoke about that before, and made peace with what it meant.”

“It is prophesied however that when an Alicorn is very much in love, and if they find something to define who they are…”Chrysalis paused for a moment to gesture to the sleeping Princesses cutie mark “…like the princess of love & sex finding that perfect moment of ecstasy, combined with the power of more than one immortal then that heat may be induced…”

Shining eyes grew wide as his brain finally clicked at what their friend was suggesting “You mean?”

“Well, if I was able to help Cadence keep her innate power going for long enough, then yeah, there is a chance. Only a chance like with normal ponies!”

“Yeah, but I’ll take that chance” Shining smiled, almost weeping as he looked first at his wife, and then at the Queen infront of him “Thank you”

Chrysalis could feel the emotion in the stallion, so thought she would lighten the tone a little “It’ll be an interesting story to tell the foal when he or she is older, that conception was aiding by the same changeling that threaten the marriage to start with after hours of threesome sex”

“Yes, we may just have to leave that part of the story out and come up with something a little less scaring” Shining joked

“Perhaps, but there had always been a theory that the prophecy meant we could only come into heat making love to an immortal lover. Without male alicorns it’s of course never been tested, but the results of our actions last night suggest that the other alicorn may not need to be the lower. We’ll have to let the other princess know!”

“Would we really have to tell the others, including my sister?” Shining cringed a little.

“I think that Twilight, and indeed Celestia and Luna, should be informed if we manage to find a way for them to have a foal…to not to seems a little cruel not to”

Time ticked past with Shining just watching his sleeping partner, wondering if indeed they had managed to create life. When Cadence finally awoke, she knew what had happened without too much of Chrysalis filling in. She and Shining hugged for a while before pulling the changeling in on it.

“Thank you Chrysalis” the Crystal Princess wept “This would never have been possible without your help! And not just with the magic, but in general. Regardless of the outcome…” she trailed off

“Happy to give a chance to such a wonderful couple. Of course we won’t know for a few days, so do let me know what happens. I mean, I could always head back at some point to help you try again, or for future foals”

“Whoa whoa whoa, who says I want more then one” Shining mocked protested

Cadence gave her husband a kiss but then turned all soft eyed on him “You know, I could use my love spells to keep you under my constant control, and force you to pleasure me all day anyway if it didn’t work this time. Wouldn’t that be nice?”

“Really, I mean what kind of mare would use mind altering spells to get Shining Armour to do what she wanted?” Chrysalis replied, to be hit simultaneously by pillows thrown by the crystal prince and princess, before the three of them burst into laughter.

Shining finally stopped laughing long enough to voice what they were all thinking “I’m hungry, lets go raid the kitchens…Afterall, you may be eating for two now my love!”
