“I think that’s enough teasing for today,” I said with a giggle as I stood. “Let’s go get some breakfast.”

Sephiroth carefully scooted over to the edge of the bed, her wing dissipating into nothing during that, and stood up. “I think I’ll take a shower first.”

Sniffing the air, a huge grin appeared on my face. “Well, I know it won’t be a cold one with me in it~.” I turned towards the bathroom.

Sighing, she walked over to the crib and placed Golden and Light in it. They were both fast asleep. “I won’t decline an offer to share a shower with you.” Smiling down on the two fillies serenely, she softly stroked through their manes, lovingly, before following me in the direction of the bathroom.

I held the door open for her and waited as she stepped past me, feeling like we had forgotten something. “Oh yeah!” I lit my hand and the ring I made appeared in front of the taller woman.

That stopped her dead in her tracks, but instead of taking it she just stood there. In fact, she wasn’t moving, at all.

“I told you, this would be yours no matter what Lance decided,” I said as I lifted her right hand and slid the ring onto her finger, kissing it once it was nestled near her knuckle. A small jolt of magic left my lips and settled into the gem, making it flare briefly before settling down to its normal soft glow. There, a little extra luck, courtesy of Murphy’s blessing.

Sephiroth still didn’t say anything and just stared completely thunderstruck at the ring. This went on for long enough that I was worried I had broken her until I was suddenly pulled into a hug. Our height difference, and the fact I was not prepared to be dragged around, made my face end up between her breasts. I smiled again and returned the hug, nuzzling her valley and humming in appreciation.

She didn’t shy away and just buried her face in my hair, while holding me close. I decided to let her have her time to digest all of that, as it was kind of obvious that she was a bit overwhelmed.

After an indefinite length of time, which I didn’t really bother to track since, hey, I was buried into breasts, she loosened her grip around me and took a step back. I nuzzled her one last time before loosening my own hug and looked up at Seph.

Tears glistened in her eyes, which she hurriedly wiped away. “Somehow… I mean… You…” She sighed and took a deep breath afterwards, probably trying to organize her thoughts. Looking a little lost, she lifted her right hand to pinch the bridge of her nose, but stopped when it hovered in front of her eyes, which were glued to the ring on it. Determination entered her expression and she cupped my cheek in the same hand, leaning down to me and kissing me passionately.

I returned the kiss with just as much passion and closed the door to the bathroom, setting a sound barrier up afterwards as I led Seph towards the tub. She didn’t hesitate to follow my lead, never breaking the kiss and surprising me when her lips parted slightly to allow her tongue to poke my lips, searching entrance.

I guess I could use my powers to keep my son safe for now, I thought as I let her in and lit my hand again. She was gently exploring my mouth when the spell took hold, which made her gasp and break the kiss.

“M-Max?” Confusion and a silent question were written over her face, while I could already feel the result of my work poking me.

I gave her a slight smile and said, “I won’t force you to, but I’m in no shape to be the one giving right now.”

She shook her head slightly. “That’s not- I mean… I’d be lying if I said I’m not curious.” Worry entered her tone. “B-but is it safe? For the child, I mean.”

I gave her nose a kiss. “I can use my powers to make sure it is. Celestia and Luna taught me how to stay lucid and in control even while I orgasm.”

“Okay.”

I gave her another kiss before taking a step away. “But first, let’s get cleaned up.”

The look in her eyes told me that she thought otherwise. “Getting cleaned up just to get sweaty all over again? Nah, I have a better idea.” She lifted her hand and I felt the magic gathering it it, but there wasn’t a visible aura like usual. She connected one finger with her thumb and that was when I realized what she was about to do. With a somehow resounding snap she… well snapped and the tub suddenly grew a protrusion along one side, that resembled a bench.

“Now that I think of it, why didn’t my tub have a bench in it?”

“I think it will come in handy, since I’d imagine that standing in the tub to shower will be a little difficult with your passenger. You just didn’t notice before, ‘cause you skipped those months the last time.” Coming really close to me again, she bend down and lifted me off of my feet in one swift movement, carrying me bridal style.

“I’ve still had lots of guards or maids join me for a shower before,” I said as she sat down on the bench. I lit my hand and wrapped my magic around her pole, drawing a moan of pleasure from her.

“That feels weird, in a good way.” She used her own magic to envelop me in the most comfortable aura I’ve ever felt. It was like being wrapped up in something warmer than sunlight, but somehow not hot, at the same time, like floating through liquid silk while every inch of my body was stroked by the softest of feathers. There was no pressure whatsoever but it still felt so strong, so secure, that every little worry, every burden just melted away. It was simply indescribable in its entirety. But one word came to mind. Life. It felt like pure and unadulterated life. Like being hugged by mother nature herself.

Had I really not came into contact with Seph’s aura before? I was shaken out of my musings when she placed me down in her lap, her new addition squeezed between us. I bit my lower lip and gave her a sultry smile. “It should.” I squeezed her exactly how she did when I entered her. “That’s how I feel every time I take you.”

Sephiroth’s breath hitched in her throat and all she managed was a strangled, “Hgn!” While her face contorted into surprised bliss.

I stood up briefly, sitting back down on her lap facing her as I leaned forward into a kiss. My hand made its way down to caress her rod as I let my aura fade from its six inch length. Causing her to groan and twitch.

“Holy… I-is this sup-supposed to - ha~ - feel this intense? O-or is it just… cause I’m not used to it?” Her own hands had found their way to my ass and kneaded it firmly.

“It’s just that it’s your first time. It’ll get less intense with every time,” I said before letting my aura encompass the head of her dick. “But no less pleasurable.” I slid my aura down her length, pushing my hand down as I went.

Gasping, she twitched again, letting out a throaty moan after that. Despite obviously enjoying the new sensations, she grew restless, palpable by one of her hands roaming over my thigh and back again. Smirking, I leaned over to her ear and whispered, “It feels even better inside. The warmth, the wetness...”

Sephiroth’s eyes widened at that and I felt her grip on my behind tighten. Growling she lifted me up off her and positioned her new appendage a little awkwardly, but found her mark rather quick. I was prepared to be impaled right away, what with all the teasing, but nothing happened. Seph’s eyes were squinted and she visibly struggled with herself.

“You don’t have anything to worry about,” I said leaning back and resting fully on her hands. “You won’t harm my son.” I pulled her hands away, locking my legs how they are, and set them on my waist before shoving myself down on her.

Any potential response was overpowered by a moan that practically dripped with pleasure as she sunk into me all the way to the hilt. I gave my own moan and ground my hips against her, letting her feel me squeeze her in different directions, making her shudder.

Shaking herself out of her stupor, she gained an almost predatory look, quite enhanced by her dragon like eyes, but still held herself back. “Ever since we met. It was always about me. Even when I came to your universe to free you, you ended up helping me, making me feel good.” She shook her head. “Don’t get me wrong. I really appreciate it and more than enjoy it. But this-” Her hands squeezed me firmly but not uncomfortably so. “-this time. I’m ensuring that you will feel good.” With that she lifted me slowly, taking her sweet time to drag herself out of me, making me feel how every nook and cranny made its way over my inner walls.

I gave a long moan as she slid out of me, giving her what was supposed to be a smirk once she was completely out. “I know that’s not a promise.” I thrust her back into me, drawing a sharp gasp from the woman beneath me.

Sephiroth grinned. “I’m really tempted to turn the tables for real. And that is a threat.”

“I dunno, it sounds more like a promise to me.” I lifted myself up quickly and let gravity pull me down again, slowly getting into a rhythm.

The woman beneath me thrusted her hips upwards when I was on my way down, following my lead and matching my rhythm.

“That’s the best you can do? So much for the great Sephiroth,” I goaded, trying to get her to really fuck me. “Guess you want to be weaker than everyone.”

An almost primal growl tore itself out of her and I was suspended in mid air by her aura. Her eyes narrowed. “You asked for this.” She withdrew herself completely out of me, spinning me around to face away from her only to, literally, bend me over and plunge into me again, instantly settling in a fast and forceful pace.

I moaned and panted with each thrust, trying to get my thoughts more coherent than, Fuck, this aura is so good~! Fuck me more! Feeling myself getting close, I turned back to look at her and said, “Harder!”

She just grinned back cruelly and instead slowed her pace. “Beg for it.”

“Please, fuck me ‘til I can’t walk! Fuck me silly!”

“Your wish is my command.” With that she began to hammer into me with almost two times the speed and force to back it than before.

I screamed in pleasure, hoping my barrier could withstand my Royal Capslock and tried to put up another, only for Sephiroth to grab my hands and use them to pound into me even harder. Just as I thought it couldn’t get any better, she actually used my own trick against me and used her magic to stimulate my clit and squeeze my nipples.

That sent me over the edge, making me clench down on her dick and that would have stopped her if not for the liquid I squirted out onto her crotch.

She continued to plow into me, powering through the resistance and throwing me higher into my orgasm making me scream even louder than before. With one last mighty thrust, she somehow managed to exceed the depth she had reached until now and kept pushing deeper. How was beyond me, as dicks didn’t usually decide to grow all of the sudden. It only stopped when I felt utterly stuffed, just for its tip to explode with seed in that very moment, filling me up even more.

I gasped breathlessly as I fought to stay in control of my powers protecting my unborn son. FUCK! I never thought I’d find someone that’s bigger than Gilgamesh!

After what felt like… something really long, the flow of Seph’s cum finally ceased and with it the overwhelming presence inside of me, leaving only her original size behind. I felt myself being lifted as she floated me along with her when she sat down on the bench again, causing me to end up with my back against her chest. Instantly I was hugged from behind and she nibbled on my neck a bit.

I shuddered a bit at that and tried my hardest to get my breathing under control as I said, “T-that... Wow. You are... a natural with a... a dick.”

“Glad you enjoyed it.” The satisfaction in her voice was easily noticeable and she just held me for the time being, letting me calm down.

It took a few more minutes for me to gather enough will to turn on the shower finally. “I definitely want to do this again...” I reluctantly added, “Later.”

Chuckling, Sephiroth decided to stay silent, scooting over on the bench so we would be right under the stream of water, still holding me on her lap. “When was the last time you let yourself be pampered?”

“Never. I always do everything myself, unless its small errands or something I know I can’t do,” I admitted. “I was raised to only ask for help if I absolutely couldn’t do something by myself. Besides, my family couldn’t afford nice things except for every once in a while so living in this palace the past... year or so has been very wierd.”

“I can relate to that, at least to the part with doing things myself and not being used to live in a castle.” The soap flew over and landed in Seph’s hand. “I want you to feel as good as possible.” With that she began to gently wash me, not leaving anything out and taking extra caution with my belly and intimate parts. As she started between my legs, though, I lit my hand and cancelled the spell giving me my comfortable perch, almost sliding off Seph’s lap in the process, if not for her one arm still wrapped around me.

She made sure to massage me to make up for the missing limb, not really spurring me on again, on the contrary it felt unbelievably relaxing and soothing. I gave a soft coo and leaned back into her, trying my hardest to not fall asleep due to the warm, relaxed atmosphere. “You might want to lighten up on making me feel even better than I am. I don’t want to have to put off everything ‘til tomorrow.”

Chuckling again, she relented and finished cleaning me without furthering my relaxation anymore. After that she shampooed my hair, but despite my request, took her time to massage it into the skin of my head, stating that it was necessary for the concoction to properly take effect.

Once she was done I lit my hand and took the shampoo away from her, only for her to nibble on one of my fingers when my hand got too close to her face as I turned to return the favor. Grinning afterwards, she sighed in mock exasperation. “I’m not even allowed to properly pamper my lover. Oh woe is me.”

I blushed and looked away, trying to calm down once again. “P-please don’t do that again unless we’re in bed...” I said, rubbing the finger Seph had bitten.

She blinked in confusion before understanding dawned on her and her grin returned. “I’ll try to keep that in mind. But you never know if I won’t have my vengeance for all the teasing.”

My blush strengthened a bit and I gave her my own grin. “I’ll look forward to that.”

“And I believe that.” Leaning closer, she kissed me deeply once again and busied herself with gently stroking my belly, while still keeping me relatively close with one arm. After breaking the kiss, she looked into my eyes with a serene and content expression on her face, whispering despite the noise of the shower and the still intact soundproofing, almost as what she was about to say was meant for me, and me alone. “I love you, Max.”

My grin turned into a full, toothy smile and I pulled her in for a hug. “I love you too.” A few kisses later, I slid off her lap to sit on the bench to her right. “Let’s get you cleaned up now.”

You know what, yeah. Let’s give her the last few bottles of those, I thought before opening a secret compartment, pulling two bottles out. One had Luna’s cutie mark on the side and the other, Celestia’s. “Would you pull out your wing for me? I’m going to show you how to properly care for it.”

A hesitant expression overtook her features. “My wing can take care of itself properly. It just takes some time and it will be pristine again.” She added something more but it was drowned under the ambient noise, due to her mumbling it under her breath.

“I know that, but its condition reflects how healthy you are. I figure if we help it shine, it’ll help you heal.” I thought back to how she had asked me out of the blue if I had let others take care of me. “Come to think of it, why’d you suddenly decide to wash me?”

She averted her gaze, hiding her eyes from me in the process. “Do I require a reason to let my hands roam all over you and make you feel good doing it?”

I crossed my arms, but nodded. “You don’t, but I can’t help but feel there’s something else.” I tried to gently turn her head to face me again and she didn’t resist, revealing saddened eyes that tried to avoid looking in my direction. “You don’t need to hide your emotions from me. Whatever’s bothering you can’t be as bad as you think it is.”

A spark of anger flashed across her face, but vanished as fast as it appeared. “And then what? You tell me that it’s okay or normal, or that it is even exactly what I should have felt. But-” She sighed and I felt her head trying to turn away, only to stay in place due to my hand. “But it is not how I want to feel…”

I closed my eyes and hugged her again, whispering, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have pushed you like that. I just wanted you to take me like you meant it.”

Shakily, she returned the hug and rested her forehead on my shoulder. “I snapped, Max… I lost control and it made me think things… I-if I… If you weren’t so powerful, I would have hurt you…”

“I know that isn’t true. You’re too considerate to hurt those you love. Besides, I wanted you to do that. I wanted you to dominate me completely.”

“I dominate in battle not in love. I just… it felt so good, but I-” She groaned. “It was so alienating, like I wasn’t really me, anymore.”

I pushed her away, holding her shoulders and giving her a stern look. “You’ll never feel like it’s you when we make love unless you accept that is who you are.” My expression softened and I continued, “You want to be strong so you can protect everyone you love, but part of that is telling us what to do and enforcing your word. We won’t always do what you tell us to, but you don’t need to fear us leaving you because you told us to do something.”

“But I don’t want to force you to do anything.”

I gave her a smile. “That’s why we can ultimately choose what we want to do. We can choose to either take the punishment for not doing what you said and risking our lives, possibly lose a month or two of sharing your bed as well, or doing what you said and getting a reward later.”

Appalled she reared her head back. “I would never punish you!”

My smile took a sensual turn as I said, “You don’t wanna spank me when I’m a bad girl or tell me how much of a slut I am?”

Conflicting emotions flittered across her face and she shouted, “NO!” The deep blush on her cheeks and the ghost of a predatory look in her eyes spoke another language, though.

I wrapped my arms around her shoulders and pulled her closer until my forehead was resting against hers. “I keep telling you, if you don’t want to do something, just tell me. We’ll do something else. But what happens? You submit to what I want to do.” I sighed and closed my eyes. “How will I know when you get uncomfortable if you don’t tell me?”

“I wasn’t uncomfortable at all while I did it. That’s the whole reason I get sick just thinking about it.” Sephiroth finally looked into my eyes again. “And I can’t get it out of my head. How can it be so ultimately satisfying, so right, to be dominated and at the same time equally thrilling and addictive to make another bend to your will?”

“Because humans are herd creatures just like ponies. We need someone in charge, but we want to be the one with power. The reason you get sick with how right it feels is because you don’t want to be a part of it. You hate power, but at the same time you hate feeling powerless.” I gave her nose a kiss, trying to comfort her. “I know how that feels because it’s the same thing that held me back on earth. I couldn’t understand why everyone had to lie or stab someone else in the back just to gain to smallest drop of power. I hated it and wanted nothing to do with that system, but here? The same system is in place, but everyone is helping those around them. Here I feel complete and understand why.”

“I… I think I understand your point of view, but I always had power, for as long as I can remember, and I never once hated it. No, I relished in it, I embraced it and I used it whenever I could. I like to utterly defeat my opponent, and the rush of a good fight is all I lived for before Discord and I became a thing.” Her head sunk a little and her eyes adopted a distant look. “Something changed. I never once attempted to seize control, to use him like I did with you… There was something in my heart, that made me give up on power and control, willingly, and enjoy it.”

I gave her a small smile. “It’s called love. You wanted to keep that feeling of security he gave you, so you let him have control. I gave you control over me and you rose to the challenge because I needed you to make me feel safe, I wanted you to take control. On earth there’s a saying, ‘love can make people do anything’. Even change themselves, I believe.”

Seph stayed silent after this, obviously contemplating my words, if the thoughtful look was anything to go by. It took a while but eventually a smile crept on her lips. “Some warrior I am. Wanting to revel in a sense of security without granting my loved ones the same.” Her smile grew a little. “I can do that. For the right reasons.” She pulled me into a hug with a determined and strong grip, her wing flaring behind her only to enclose me in addition.

I returned the hug and we stayed like that for the next few minutes. Finally I decided that we had to start the day and let go of Seph, placing the two bottles in her hands as I said, “I hate to do this, but we have things to do today. Such as getting you clean.”

Laughing for a bit, she pretended to wipe a tear away afterwards. “Alright. We have showered for long enough.” Then she examined the bottles. “What’s that?”

“Celestia and Luna’s shampoo and bodywash. Celestia’s is better for hair and Luna’s is more of a bodywash than a shampoo,” I explained as I floated over their special wing care concoction.

“Max…” Her gaze lingered on the bottles but instead of questioning my decision she held them close for a second. “I’m honored that you want me to use them.”

I gave her a smile as I lathered my hands and started on her wing. “Nothing but the best for my little succubus.”

Sephiroth groaned loudly. “Really? You can’t be serious. If anyone in here can be compared to a sex demon it would be you.” Regardless she began to wash herself.

“Well....” I let my left hand glide down her side, revelling at how smooth her skin was. “Your skin is much more smooth than mine, plus you are sexier than me. One thing everyone agrees on is that succubi are the sexiest demons there are.” I gave her right butcheek a squeeze before returning my hand to its duty.

Her wing ruffled along with her shuddering and I’m sure she would have facepalmed if not for her hands being occupied with other things. And with it came her signature reply. “I’m not that beautiful. And Succubi are supposed to have six wings, not one.”

I stopped my work and turned her chin so she had to look at me. “Seph, you are that beautiful and more. I’m not exaggerating because I’m your lover either. Besides, Succubi don’t have to have six wings, they just have to be sexy.” I let go of her chin and went back to lathering her wing up, massaging the soap-like mixture down to the skin.

Blushing, she turned her head away again. “Well- the Succubi in my universe all have six wings and they are surprisingly modest, come to think of it. For something you call ‘Sex Demon’ at least.”

“Huh, wonder if one of them could give me a few pointers.” A lecherous grin made its way across my face. “And I could give them the best lay they’ve had in centuries.”

Sephiroth’s eyes snapped back to me, while hers were narrowed. “No, Max. Don’t you even think about it. Nightmare has told me what they can do if they really want to and let me state this real clear. It. Does. Not. Matter in the slightest how strong you are or what powers you have. They find the cracks to seep their magic into and they will take control and your soul if they so wish.”

I gave her a look that said ‘get real’. “Come on, Seph. Do you really think I’d actually be dumb enough to get in bed with an actual succubus?” I raised a hand when she opened her mouth to say something. “Don’t, I already know what you’re going to say.”

She huffed and proceeded to lather her hair in shampoo, thus turning away once more. "Then you can stop calling me one, now."

I smiled again, nipping at a few un-lathered feathers. “I don’t think I shall. Having my own false succubus seems like a good trade-off for the real thing.”

Shuddering, she tried, and failed, to bite back a moan. “Ma~x. You were the one to state, that we needed to get done showering. So don’t do that.”

“I was just trying to get them a bit straighter,” I pouted, not even trying to make her believe me. “Besides, drying off feathers with your mouth is the best way to get a wing dry without ruffling the feathers using a towel.”

“Feathers are water-repellent. If I flap my wing once it will be dry enough.” Despite her aggressive tone, which was clearly faked, she made no move to prevent me from continuing.

“Yours, maybe, but you’re going to have to learn anyways because Rainbow’s too young to do it herself right now.” I spread her wing under the water and kept massaging it to help the soap rinse out. “Who knows if more of our children will have wings - feathered or not.”

“Mpf- I- I’m not unwilling to- to learn, but how exactly… can I when I’m not seeing what you do- uuhhh.” I noticed just then that what should be a relaxing massage could have become sexually stimulating with all of my teasing.

“Oh... I’m sorry Seph, I’ve teased you so much I’ve turned trying to help you relax into getting you horny again.” I put my hand on my face and groaned. “This is why I want to try to be more... like you, I guess I could say.”

Breathing deeply to calm herself, she took a few minutes to answer. “I’m surprised, though. I had sex twice in the last 12 hours and still get aroused so easily. You should think that one needs a little more time to cool down after that.”

I took a glance at Seph’s magic, looking at the part that made hers different from Nightmare’s and gasped, giving her a naughty look when she turned to glance at me. “Seph, I hadn’t known you were speaking from experience!”

She just stared at me unsagaciously. “What…?”

“I thought something was fishy the first time I looked at your magic. Part of it is being diverted to the nerves in your pussy and the part of your brain that produces oxytocin.”

The look on her face told me that she did not like where I was going with this. “And that means?”

“Medical speak for; a succubus probably tried to seduce you, only to fail because of your Cells.”

“You gotta be fucking kidding me! You mean to tell me that I’m part Succubus, magically speaking?!”

I giggled, giving her a kiss. “That just proves me right~. You’re my little succubus.”

Her hand met her face hard enough to produce a shockwave that sprayed water everywhere. “That’s all the fault of this fucking Succubus! I should have sealed her right away like Nightmare told me and not try to understand them by engaging into a conversation! No wonder she was surprisingly modest! She simply failed to work her magic on me!”

“Well, she kinda had the wrong approach to getting in your pants anyways.” I gave her a lecherous grin and leaned over, wrapping my arms around her as I whispered, “You’re more into S and M than anything, by what I’ve experienced.”

That seemed to quell her anger rather fast and made her look downcast. “That’s not true… I admit that I enjoy both, submitting and dominating, but what really gets to me the most is with who I do it.”

My expression softened and I gently squeezed her, a smile playing at the corners of my mouth. “Even so, you won’t hear any complaints from me if you want to take control in bed. I know Lance knows how to properly dominate someone, you could get some pointers from watching him if you wanted.”

Seph hugged me briefly before distancing herself again. “We really have to get this shower over with, you know?”

“Yeah, we’ve spent almost an hour in here. Not counting our fun time.” I followed her, making sure all the soap was out of her wing before starting to straighten them again. I made sure to refrain from making any more teasing comments and soon we were out, drying each other off.

Just like she told me it took only one flap of her wing to dispel almost all the water from it, before she let it vanish again, much to my consternation. Also she made sure to not arouse me while drying me off.

“There’s more to caring for wings than just washing them with the right shampoo,” I said as I dried Seph’s hair and she dried my privates.

“Don’t we have something to do? I think I remember you saying that. My wing will be fine for now. You can show me proper preening techniques later.”

I gave her a pouty face, but nodded. “You’re going to be giving Rainbow a bath tonight, then.”

Smiling she finished her toweling and turned towards the door. “Sure, I’d like that.”
