The water was steaming hot when Cimmerian stepped in, causing him to sigh in relief. Swift and Humble were on him in a second, scrubbing him down and running the hot water over his entire body. He stood up, allowing them access to his legs, but shooed them out before he rolled in the tub, laying on his back and finishing up. Some areas weren't meant to be washed by others. He continued to relax in the tub, letting the hot water sooth him until his right ear twitched, a sound waking him slightly. A body pressed against him as he was reclining in the tub and lips soon met his own, waking him fully to the sight of Pandinus pressing against his barrel in the water, purring gently and causing the water to bubble slightly.

"I'm getting tired of waiting," the queen said with a giggle, nuzzling into his cheek before trailing nips down his neck. "Are you really more interested in spending time in the bath than with me?"

"You have to admit, it's pretty comfortable here," Cimmerian joked.

"I know somewhere even more comfortable," the queen responded, lighting her horn. The sense of falling hit him, and the stallion found himself and most of the tub's water supply now on the queen's bed, a fiery ring of a changeling teleport-circle glowing on the roof of the chamber while he could see the ceiling of his bathroom through the hole.

The stallion scowled at the mare still on his barrel.

"Can I at least get a towel? I'm soaking wet."

Pandinus laughed mischievously, leaning in until her nose was right against his.

"So am I."

Cimmerian found himself the target of a powerful kiss, the queen's tongue zipping about his mouth unhindered for a moment before he responded, returning her kiss and using his forelegs to pull her tightly against himself. Not even breaking the kiss, he poked her flank with a rear hoof, causing her to giggle into the kiss and allowing him to finally pin down her tongue with his own. Separating for a moment, he watched the mare's eyes drain of their pink tint and he used the distraction to grab a few towels out of the bathroom before Din lost control of the teleport ring. As the last one was being pulled through the ring collapsed, cutting his towel in half and leaving the stallion scowling before he used a towel to caress his wife's flank.

She groaned softly, grinding against his barrel with need as the lust she'd been craving for the last few days was finally directed at her in force. She's learned a few things since the last time they'd joined together, and while she longed to use them she knew they had all night. The stallion focusing love and lust at her right now was no one-and-done show. She giggled in excitement as she felt it, his sheath allowing his rod to escape and brush against her barrel. She lifted herself up, wings buzzing in excitement as she quickly mounted it, not even caring for his usual 'foreplay', as he called it. She wanted him inside her, and she wanted his love washing over her again. The queen ground against him, moaning loudly as the stallion twitched inside of her. She pumped up and down on his dick, feeling the ring and the vessels rubbing against her canal in the most wonderful ways. She kissed him, feeling the wash of emotions flooding her senses as she'd been wanting for the last few weeks. It was almost enough to give her pause, to wonder if this was the true danger of finding an actual mate; the addiction to the sensations, to the tastes, a real, physical need for the contact of the individual to whom a queen was bonded.

Almost, but not quite enough. She squealed as her first orgasm hit, causing her to lock down on her mate, gripping him tightly against and in her even as he bucked instinctively against her. She felt his lust burning like a fire, tasted the emotion that invited her to lose herself in the pleasure of mating. She drank in a bit, feeling her own need burn hotter as she repurposed it for her own, weakly grinding into the male and nibbling on his neck as he continued to buck into her dribbling canal. With a few last bucks and a shuddering groan, she felt the heat, the flow of seed being pushed into her deepest depths. She giggled, feeling her body trying to find a place for the semen while knowing no such place existed. They'd done this several times before the stallion left, and even after almost a month her reserves had been almost completely unused. It wasn't like she could have more hatchlings with the strange nymphs currently growing inside of her. Thus it spilled over, filling her tunnel and eventually spilling out, the warm dribbling of his spunk dripping back onto the male leaving her smiling in happiness.

She drank in the love, the post-orgasmic bliss he was in and was directing at her, enjoying the feeling of it washing over her even as several drones began to siphon it away from her and store it in the depleted chambers. She wouldn't need to store it all, as she wanted to be able to do this for a while yet. Instead Pandinus began to cycle the love through her entire body, rejuvenating her muscles with a flood of energy and leaving her shaking body once more fresh and ready to continue. She rose, feeling him slip out with a squirt of released fluids as her flower clenched, desperately trying to retain the seed that she normally found so precious. Instead it was plentiful, it was a never-ending supply that would last as long as the stallion below her lived. She noticed the towels on the bed, and grabbed a few in her aura even as Cimmerian's eyes lolled. He was still recovering from his first orgasm in a month, and apparently the separation had affected him as well.

She smiled lovingly at the sight of his lower body while using a few towels to caress his barrel, drying him even as the water drained out from around her bed. She ran a towel under his balls, watching him shudder as she wrapped it in the cloth. She listened to him moan as she used the towel to roll his balls around in their sack, feeling them radiate heat that begged to be deposited inside her. With a final breath, she pressed her muzzle against his sack, allowing the scent of her mate to completely subsume her. She breathed deeply, running her tongue lovingly over him; she gently mouthed the orbs, rolling them around with her tongue and releasing them from her torturous attention to gaze at his stallionhood.

It was once more standing proudly, a faint trickle of liquid anticipation running down the tip. She smiled, seeing a few specks of his seed still smeared against it from his first orgasm mixed with the viscous fluid of her own climax, and she remembered something she'd read in her studies as well as discussed with Cadance when reviewing the other mare's memories of sex. She gave it a tentative lick, smiling as the organ twitched and bobbed at her attention. She kissed it, she nuzzled it, gave the head a suckling kiss, all the while tittering at the stallion's grunts and groans. Taking a deep breath, she used her shape shifting abilities, a flash of green fire washing over her body as she took it into her mouth. She licked and suckled the flared head, swallowing it deeper down her throat as she moved more of his length into her mouth. She pushed on, taking more and more of him into her maw and feeling it push down her throat, forcing her to use her adjusted breathing path. Soon his ring was against her lips, but she opened her jaws wide, pushing forward and clamping down on the other side of the fleshy barrier, continuing to push herself further down his shaft.

She could feel his twitching flare deep in her throat by the time her muzzle reached his sheath. She swallowed and purred, the vibrating pull causing the stallion to buck into her jaws.

"Oh, fuck Din! How are you doing that?!?" he muttered, nipping her hindquarters and drawing a giggle from the mare even as she worked him over mercilessly. She swallowed, she purred, she ran her tongue over his shaft, she pulled back and pushed forward, allowing him to copy the motions of rutting her muzzle. It wasn't long before he was swearing up a storm, his flare expanding to lock into her throat as his seed poured out in warm spurts. Still she continued her torture, humming and suckling on him until the stallion was panting, a few enfeebled bucks issuing from him as he found himself aching from his second peak of the night. He moaned, his legs kicking weakly as she pulled him out of her throat, a wash of changeling magic rolling over her form as she returned herself to her base-form. She turned around and nuzzled her mate, allowing him to recover slightly as a second plan formulated in her mind. It was something he may not appreciate fully just yet, but for some reason, the thought just excited her to no end. With another giggle, she opened herself to the link, targeting a specific individual who was due for a reward.

Zelus blinked awake, feeling something tug at her through the link. She'd already deposited her eggs in a small bowl-shaped nest in her room, a large bed in the center leaving the chamber an that was almost exact copy of her sister's room. In fact, the only difference was the size of the bed. It was sized for the queen to curl up and sleep on, not for a queen and her mate to sprawl out and have fun on.

The queen had dropped off her eggs, washed up in the changeling bathing area (a small underground pond that was full of cool water), and headed right to bed.

The mare blinked her fuzzy vision clear, using a nearby drone to find the location of the heavenly bodies. The moon was just rising according to a nearby scout, so why would someone be bothering her now?

A second brush from the link, and she identified the individual. Pandinus was calling to her, brushing against her with a full, open connection for some reason. Zelus attempted to open dialogue, but the other queen just brushed the connection against her again, tempting her to accept the offer. Zelus sighed, allowing the connection to take place. A second later, the older queen gasped.

Pandinus was currently in the hooves of her mate, the same stallion that had spent so many nights near Zelus. She could smell him through the connection, but there was something else, something that had never been there during his time with her. The mare felt her sister shift on the bed, felt her own body follow along subconsciously as the stallion stood her up on the bed, running a hoof along their flank in a way that sent shudders down their spine.

'Hello, Zelus. I just wanted to show you how thankful I was for watching out for my mate. I thought I'd share this with you!'

Zelus blinked in confusion at the idea. What did she mean, share? It was just harvesting from a male, right? A burst of anger flared over the link, the idea that Pandinus was somehow taunting her drawing a laugh from the other side of the link.

'Taunt? Oh dear, no. I want you to understand just what we've been missing out. Are you ready? Because he's about to start!'

The quick burst of confusion was quickly cut off as the queens felt a long, wet organ begin to run over their marehoods. Zelus squealed in shock, feeling herself suddenly winking powerfully at the phantom sensations that were being transmitted from her sister. She fumbled for a memory, flashing the change over her body to protect her from the sensations of mating, trying to avoid the dangers of such things. It didn't matter though, as it wasn't her nerves that were transmitting the pleasure. Once more the tongue ran over Din's flower, drawing a moan of pleasure from Din and a squeak of fear from Zelus.

'Are you mad?' the armored queen shouted through the link. 'You'll get us caught, get us killed, what are you, you, turn it off!'

Din just giggled, spreading her rear legs farther as her mate plunged his tongue deep inside her, running the fleshy organ over her sensitive insides and drawing mewls of pleasure from the younger queen. Zelus was staring ahead of her, glassy eyed as the pleasure washed over her like a wave, leaving both mares bucking against the stallions ministrations. Zelus fumbled for the connection while looking for a way to severe it, to at least remove the physical sensations, but lost her grip entirely a moment later.

'Oh, my favorite part!' Zelus heard the other queen giggle, just as she felt the stallions lips wrap around a small nub. A moment later Zelus screamed into her covers, a flash of white pleasure breaking any and all concentration she had. She'd read of such things occurring in pony relationships, read of them in some ratty books she'd picked up to pass the time. She'd dismissed them of course. Such things were dangerous, not even worth her time.

Now the stallion's humming and suckling on her clit was all she could think of, she felt themselves wink, a spatter of their juices being ejected from their drooling depths, one being intercepted by a stallions muzzle while the other spattered on the floor.

"I, I can't, please, you have to..." Zelus panted out, bucking her hips against the phantom of her sister's mate.

'Have to what? Oh! I know exactly what you want!' came the response. Their vision twisted slightly, Zelus watching as Din turned to her mate and giggled.

"I think that's enough tasting, why don't we get to the good part?"

The stallion leaned out from behind their flanks, walking out into sight. He bore a toothy grin, his stallionhood swinging freely beneath him as he stared hungrily at them, radiating the most potent lust and love Zelus had ever been subjected to.

"Are you certain? I mean, I could listen to those cute little moans and mewls of yours all night."

With a final nod from the queens, the stallion returned to their flanks, mounting them and aiming himself for their drooling holes. Zelus found herself staring in horrified fascination as he did so, feeling herself buck subconsciously against the nonexistent cock that was approaching. With a hiss of pleasure she felt it slide in, causing her to grit her teeth and clench her eyes shut. It didn't stop her from seeing everything though, as Pandinus was watching the entire time, hungrily egging the stallion on and giggling as he finally hilted and nibbled on her neck.

"I, Pandinus you're insane, you're going to, you're going to get killed!" Zelus squeaked out, feeling the stallion twitch inside them. She groaned at the sensations, feeling him begin to slide out before he pushed back in, his flare spreading her wider than she'd ever felt before. She felt his ring and flare dragging across her unprotected vagina, drawing sparks of pleasure that for some reason only seemed to excite the other queen.

'Silly Zelly, he's my mate, who's going to harm us in our own hive?' Din responded, stopping to mewl in pleasure as the male shifted, driving into her at a new angle and bringing about another burst of pleasure in both mares.

'This is, is what we've been missing, sister. This, oh, is what he's given me, given us. It's, hah, coming...are you ready?'

The older queen could only mewl a response, her mind being assaulted by the constant influx of pleasure racking her nerves. Cimmerian suddenly bit down on his mate, locking his front hooves around her barrel while driving himself into the mare with reckless abandon. Zelus found herself echoing her sister's screams of pleasure and desire as they reached a boiling point. With one last shudder, something inside the older mare, something that terrified her, gave way.

She came not with a scream but with a whimper, feeling her entire body tense up and feeling her marehood clench around the nonexistent stallion that was rutting her. She felt the warmth of seed being sent deep into their body, felt the warm contentment of a proper harvesting along with a feeling of safety she'd never known before. With a final shuddering breath, Zelus slumped into her covers.

'It was wonderful, wasn't it?' came a dreamy question a moment later. 'I, I almost gave up the chance for this, and I know you never knew about it. I had to share, had to make you understand. Cadance told me just how badly I described my first time, just how much I left out, and I knew the only way to fully make you understand was by allowing you to feel it.'

Zelus' head rolled limply around on her bed, no energy to lift it presently in her body.

"I need, I need to...I want to be..."

'Shh, I will call you later on. You can spend the night with us, and we will talk in the morning. For now, I will tell him it is to reinforce your connection after your scare in the Castle,' Din answered, brushing against her sister gently through the link. 'I love you, sister, and wish to see our hive flourish. Rest now, there will be plenty of love in our future, and our hive will become as strong as the love he holds for me.'

'Now rest. I have much more love to, extract from my mate.'

"Can, can I, please, can I..." the older queen muttered, weakly attempting to pull herself fully onto the bed. With a final giggle from the other end, she felt the pull, felt fully the amount of love that was being directed at her sister. She noticed the body was already setting up for the next round, the stallion already lifting himself and mounting her again, driving his shaft deep into her body and drawing a moan of pleasure from the queens. The stallion nibbled her neck, and she twisted, feeling her canal rubbing against him as she rotated on the bed. Zelus wrapped her sister's hooves around the stallion, pulling him into a deep kiss and moaning loudly into his mouth, feeling him rocking against her most sensitive spots. She no longer feared the contact though. It was the opposite in fact. She still feared the end, but it was knowing that sometime in the near future it would stop, not that her climax would result in her discovery. She knew a stallion and mare couldn't rut forever, so she bucked against him, trying to memorize every thrust, every twitch, every pulse of her borrowed heat around the male. She felt him kiss up and down her jaw, felt him nibble on her ears, heard him whisper dirty pleasures into her ears. Oh, it didn't matter to the mare anymore, that stallion could do whatever he wanted as long as he kept making her feel like this, making her feel so wonderfully full.

"Is that so?" Cimmerian whispered into her ear, causing Zelus to blush and Pandinus to laugh. Zelus hadn't meant to say it out loud, but it was too late now, and the stallion was now rocking against her faster, driving into her with more and more powerful strokes. She whined and mewled, thrashing her head about in ecstasy as he set off nerves that the mare had never known the existence of. With a final scream, she latched onto him, locking her sister's fangs into the stallion as her entire body convulsed with a powerful orgasm. The stallion just chuckled at her weak whimpers and spasms, continuing to rock against her and drive her into the bed.

With a final whimper of pleasure Zelus passed out, being pulled back to her own form by Pandinus.

'Wake up.'

Zelus blinked, looking around her room in confusion for a moment. She could smell something ,something she'd never experienced before in the air as she looked around. Moving revealed an odd stiffness in her body, alleviated only by the fact that she felt full, felt her body full of love and using it to repair the muscle fatigue that she'd worked up the last few weeks.

'You're up, good. We've been done for about an hour now, and you can come in now.' Zelus heard from her sister. 'I've already told him, and he's agreed to let you stay with us. We'll talk further in the morning, I promise.'

Zelus got up mechanically, her eyes drifting back to her bed and noticing the ruined bedding that was now stuck to her bed, as well as the various stains all over the floor where she'd, where she'd...

'Oh by the First-Mother, what have I gotten myself into,' the queen lamented, but her fears were quickly crushed by memories of the experience. The pleasure, the love, oh there was just so much love. And now, now she would spend the night in absolute safety, a safety that according to Pandinus surpassed even her time deep in her mother's hive.

The armored queen slowly walked out of her room and into the main hive-chamber, her legs still shaking slightly as her body came to grips with its situation. She walked over to her sisters room and pushed open the door. The queen was instantly assaulted by the both alien and familiar scent, the musk of the stallion currently wrapped around the other changeling queen assailing her senses. Zelus shakily approached, following her sisters whispered orders and laying down between them. She sighed, relaxing into her sister's grip even as the apprehension faded from the male at her back.

"Sorry Din, I didn't realize it shook her up that much. I talked to her afterwards, and she said she was fine," the male said, letting a wing settle over Zelus.

The older mare smiled dumbly at the contact. Pandinus hid a giggle, tapping a hoof on her hive-sister's muzzle before nuzzling into her.

"She is fine, I just want to make sure she's okay. She seemed a little, out of it earlier, and I want to make sure it's not just exhaustion."

Cimmerian nodded, shifting a bit as Zelus cuddled into his side but fairly used to the contact by now.

"We'll discuss things in the morning, alright?"

"It's a bit late for that, my mate," the younger queen said with a content smile. "The sun is already rising, but the drones will keep things quiet for us. Sleep well, Cimmerian. Cadance and your advisors will see to things while we rest."

Zelus dozed off with the stallions wing draped over her back and her sister snuggled into her side. Once more she found the younger mare to be correct. Nothing she'd ever experienced to date came close to the sensations, to the absolute all-encompassing feeling of safety she felt in the presence of her sister's mate. If they could work it out and depending on how her sister's clutch went, maybe he'd be her mate too?

Author's Notes:

So you remember that swapping Cadance and Amare were doing? Well before I thought of that, I had this idea. The idea of sex being felt by two changeling queens at once just sent me giggling. And what better reward for defending your mate than to let the other queen know why you spend so much energy to protect him
