Dying Embers
Chapter 64: Chapter 62 - A day under her command
Previous Chapter Next ChapterI waited patiently as the others finished off the rest of their training, during the wait I decided to get changed back into my clothing and not to talk to those who have already awoken. Wanting to give everyone a debrief at the same time I figure it would be best to wait for everyone to awaken so I don't just repeat myself.
During the wait, Shadow had also woken up signifying that she died during the training. Already I'm seeing some great advantages from this training, it will allow me to discover all the skills and abilities my team have in order to incorporate them into future operations. Silver's ability to deal with the bunkers from below was incredibly useful, it would certainly make clearing out fortifications a lot easier.
After about twenty minutes everyone finally wakes up and look around initially in confusion, Luna however simply just lifts her head and walks to the side as though this was a regular occurrence for her.
Once everyone has settled down a bit I move to the centre of the room to address them all. "Okay, for a first run I think that went pretty well. It has allowed me to look more into how you all fight in those circumstances and identify areas to improve on. Hopefully, you all picked up on some tactics to potentially deploy in the future."
Turning to Chaser I step up to him, "I think you learnt the most important lesson the hard way." Leaning closer I slap him across the back of the head, "Never take off your fucking helmet! You have that piece of armour for a reason, use it!"
Pivoting I next approach Sure Strike, "What the fuck do you think you were doing charging an MG-42 head on!?" Sure Strike doesn't respond as he stares back at me, "Imperial Pegasi are supposed to be elite fighters! Make sure you learn to work in a bloody team and don't run off just to get shot!"
As he continues to glare towards me I next turn to Janine, "You were just unlucky, so I'm not going to say anything." Moving around the room I rub my face, "Before any of you say anything, yes I am aware that I also died. That could be down to a number of factors, I'm going to go with the fact that a semi-automatic rifle is not good for CQB. If I had my Thompson then I would have just fired off a full magazine into that crowd."
Pausing I glance to Shadow, "How did you die?"
Stretching her wings she looks back to the others, "After you died we took cover in the trench to plan out our next move. When I looked over the trench an artillery shell hit and I guess the shrapnel and explosion must have got me."
"Fair enough. Other than what I've already covered you all did really well for our first try. Slicer, well done for being able to stabilise Georg despite his injury and different kit then what you're used to using. Silver, brilliant job on taking out that fortification and relieving the pressure on us. Georg, you did a great job as a support gunner, you were regularly laying down suppressive fire for the rest of us to move forward. And Sunny, your shields were a great asset to keep us safe."
Taking my phone out of my pocket I look to the time, 06:02. "Well, it's early morning now, feel free to do what you all want for the day. It's likely going to be some time before we do this again, next time I want us all to get through it." As everyone moves to leave the room I remain stationary as I glance to Luna as she watches the others leave. Once the doors close I step up to her, "Did you enjoy watching me fight?"
Shrugging Luna steps up to the window, "It was certainly quite the show, even though you managed to get yourself killed."
"Occupational hazard." Stepping up to Luna I watch out the window as a few residents begin to emerge from their homes in order to go to work. "Thanks for putting us straight into D-day, by the way," I say in a sarcastic tone.
Grinning Luna tilts her head towards me, "Baptism by fire. Besides, the majority seemed to cope fairly well. Consider it a test."
I look to Luna in confusion, "A test?"
Luna nods, "To see if I made the right decision giving you a Company to command. I think it's safe to say that I made a good choice, you saw opportunities to use your team's abilities and didn't sacrifice them in the process. You'll make a fine leader, John."
Smiling I lean closer to Luna and place a peck on her cheek, "I aim to please." Stretching my arms I start to move towards the door.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Pausing I look back to Luna, "To get breakfast?"
With a sultry smile, Luna shakes her head, "I believe you lost a certain bet and still need to pay up." Stopping directly in front of me she runs a hoof over my chest, "I'm cashing it in. One day... to do whatever I want."
As she says this a goofy grin spreads across my lips, "Whatever you want? So... what does the Princess want?"
With a flash of her horn, I'm temporarily blinded by a blue light before my vision returns. Opening my eyes I find us both in a private bedchamber with the telltale crystal walls of the palace. Stepping towards a large double bed Luna kicks off her silver horseshoes, "You can start by running me a bath."
My stance immediately drops as my initial thoughts of what she may have wanted run to the far end of the room. "A bath? Really?"
Luna chuckles a she turns her head to look to me, "Don't sound so disappointed. You're going to be helping me bathe."
The grin returns as I give an exaggerated bow, "Of course, your majesty." Before she can respond I head into the bathroom and look around at the various ointments, conditioners and bath solutions which rest alongside the frame of the bath. What the fuck am I supposed to do with this frilly shit? I'm a guy, just give me some hot water and a bar of soap, that'll be enough for a bath.
Putting the plug into the drain I kneel down next to the tub as I switch on the water, not wanting to get my sleeves wet I unbutton my cufflinks and roll my sleeves up as the water begins to rise. Picking up a number of bottles I look at them in confusion as I try to figure out what the hell to add to the water, reading a label that says 'muscle soother' I decide to add a generous amount to the water and begin to run my hand through it.
As the tub is nearly two-thirds full point I increase the cold water to keep the water at a steady temperature, it has just occurred to me that I have no idea how hot Luna likes her baths. Shaking the water from my hand I slowly turn my head, "Hey, Luna? How hot do you..." I freeze as I find Luna slowly sauntering up to me without her usual royal attire. I know it may seem stupid but since she normally has something on, seeing her like this almost makes it seem like she's naked... well, naked by human standards since most ponies strut around in their birthday suits.
Coming to a stop alongside me, Luna gives a soft chuckle as she glances at the expression on my face. Lifting her hoof she tests it in the water before giving a crisp nod, "That'll do, John." Switching off the taps with her magic she climbs into the bath she releases a relaxed sigh as her eyes close, slowly but surely she finds a comfortable position as her body remains fully submerged in the water. Tilting her head towards me she levitates a bottle of scented oil and drops it in my hand, "Surely you can take a hint."
Chuckling I move to the end of the bath behind her head and pop the cap off the bottle, tilting the bottle I empty a generous amount into my hand before resting the bottle alongside my knees. Rubbing my hands together I spread the load over both my hands before beginning to massage the back of Luna's neck. Despite her slender form, I can still feel the strength of her muscles underneath not to mention the fact that she seems to be really tense.
As I continue to run my fingers and palms over her neck, Luna lets out a relaxed moan as her head tilts back to rest against the edge of the tub. Keeping my eyes locked on her frame I start to reposition my hands to massage up each of her forelegs, Luna is able to take the hint as she raises the limbs from the water to allow me access. Well this is certainly a new experience for me. I've never done anything like this before... apart from shagging in the shower, of course.
Finishing up on her forelegs I add another helping of oil to my hands, "Would you like me to get your back?" Luna doesn't even open her eyes as she nods. Adjusting her body she slowly rolls onto her front as her forehooves rest below her chin to act as a pillow, as I look down her frame I now have access to her back, wings... and rump.
Deciding to take my time I slowly trace my fingers along her upper back as they begin to rub and massage her frame. The movement of my hands seems to do the trick though as Luna seems to be fairly relaxed, the only noises she makes are sighs of relief as I run over her tired muscles. Well, at least she's enjoying it. Though I'm currently getting fuck all from this. A mischievous grin spreads over my lips as my eyes flick down her body again. Perhaps I should tease her?
Knowing that the wings of the Pegasi can be sensitive I decide to shift my focus to them, gently caressing her right wing I cautiously unfold it as my free hand traces through the feathers. This seems to get a reaction as Luna lets out a sudden gasp as her hindleg gives a little involuntary kick splashing water onto the floor.
Smirking I continue to lightly move my fingers back and forth through her feathers along with the occasional pass over the joints themselves. With each little pass on the joint Luna give an involuntary response to my actions, either in the form of a content moan or with a kick of her legs. Deciding not to give the attention to just one of her wings I lean over her body and repeat the same process for her left wing.
After a few minutes I finally finish massaging her wings, when I lift my head to look at Luna's face she appears to be in a state of total relaxation. Well... I'm going to be putting an end to that soon. Grinning I move my hands over her lower back and give it some attention, as I do this I eye my real prize further down. After a moment of consideration, I decide to go for it and quickly trace my hand along her back towards her rump.
********** CTRL - F 'Sex Over' to skip sex **********
As my hands rest on her plush rump I immediately begin to caress her cheeks within my hands, Luna's response is to let out a sudden moan as she lifts her head. Looking over her shoulder she gives a small snicker, "And what do you think you're doing?"
"Just taking the initiative." Lifting my hands I stop the massage as I turn to her with a cocky grin, "I could always stop."
With her eyes narrowing she shakes her head, "You are the worst kind of tease, John."
"I didn't hear a request to stop," Lowering my hand I playfully swat her rump getting a sudden gasp from Luna. "Just relax, Luna. Let me take care of you." Luna watches me as my hands go back to caressing her rump, without offering an argument she rests her head on her forehooves as she raises her lower body for me. See, I may be doing whatever you want but I can still take the initiative.
Adjusting my position I shuffle to the end of the bath to make myself level with her raised flanks. Leaning closer I place a soft kiss on her flank as my hands slide to her inner thighs. Before Luna can react I slowly brush my hand across her marehood, she doesn't give any sort of arguments as her hips seem to lightly sway from side to side.
Rubbing my fingers against her lips I already find that she is ready for me, the massage obviously worked well in order to get her worked up. With one final brush, I cautiously push two fingers into her wet folds getting a pleasured moan in return, as my fingers push deeper Luna pushes against my hand making the process much quicker.
Chuckling I slowly begin to thrust my fingers, "Did you miss my hands these last few weeks?" As my fingers pump into her marehood I use my free hand to hook underneath her barrel to reach her groin. What my hand next touches results in Luna letting out a sharp moan, as my fingers push into her I use my free hand to rub her love button.
Continuing this for a few minutes, Luna begins to squirm underneath the water causing it to splash against my clothing. Picking up the tempo I push a third finger inside her as I increase the speed of my thrusts, Luna seems to appreciate this as she starts to moan at regular intervals. As I continue I can tell she is nearing her peak, the increasing volume of her moans of pleasure are a clear indicator.
Deciding to let her reach the edge I push my fingers in as deep as I can go as my hand vigorously runs over her clit. It doesn't take long until Luna bites down on her hoof to muffle the cry of ecstasy, as she screams her hindlegs tremble as her inner walls clamp down on my finger. As her orgasm subsides I slowly tease her with a few more thrusts before withdrawing my fingers, as both my hands move from her body she slumps into the bath causing water to flow over the edge.
Chuckling I start to idly run my hands over her back to continue with my earlier massage, "Feeling better?"
Luna gives a slow nod as she rolls over in the water in order to lie on her back, her wings cautiously folding against her body as she moves. "Much better." With another chuckle, I remove my hands from her body as I finally decide to get out of my clothing. As I slowly unbutton my shirt Luna raises her head, "What do you think you're doing?"
Pausing I look to her with a raised eyebrow, "Joining you in the bath. There is plenty of space."
With an evil smirk, Luna's magic wraps around my body stopping me from moving. "Oh no you don't, You've already used your initiative once. You're supposed to be doing what I want, not what you want." With some force, Luna throws me back onto the floor leaving me staring at the ceiling above. What the fuck? Before I can move my mouth, she leaves the bath and stands over me causing water to drip onto me as she looks at me. "I think you need to be put in your place."
Turning around she stands fully over me as her body lowers, using me as a cushion she rests her entire body on top of mine leaving her rump and wet marehood only inches from my face. Luna turns her head to look back to me as she slides her wet body against me pressing her marehood against my face.
Releasing her magical hold on me, I'm finally able to move once again. Taking the hint I brush my tongue across her wet folds getting a shudder from her in response. Tracing up and down her slit I place soft kisses as I raise my hands to grab onto her hips. With sudden force, my hands are thrown to the floor with her magic, "No! Just use your mouth."
...Oh shit. She's not going to expect me to be a submissive slave... is she? In my moment of hesitation, Luna decides to take action. A sudden jolt of magic pierces my skin sending a pleasurable pressure through my crotch... for about two seconds. Pushing her pussy against my lips she slaps my leg with her hoof, "Behave and you'll get a reward. But if you disobey me" -Another magical energy shock runs through my groin, this time however it sends a minor yet sharp pain through me causing me to release a pained groan- "You'll be punished."
What the fuck have I gotten myself into? I'm not a submissive little bitch. Trying to grab onto her hips I only lift her an inch before another jolt of pain rushes through my body, losing my grip her rump lands on my face as she shakes her head. "Are you trying to disobey?"
Groaning I shake my head, "T-there has got to be a safety word." Ignoring me, Luna pushes back against my face cutting me off. I'm really not into this... I'm used to being in charge, not the other way around. Deciding to play along, for the time being, I resume brushing my tongue against her lips as Luna's torso lowers to rest fully against my legs.
Keeping up the pace my tongues flick across her folds as she starts to move her hips back and forth against my face. Before too long I push my tongue into her opening, getting a sudden gasp from Luna. My tongue is soon caressing the walls of her love canal as Luna begins to moan at a steady pace. She said on Hearts and Hooves day that nobody had ever done this to her, I'm going to make an educated guess here, I think she likes it.
On instinct, I try to lift my hands to caress her only for her to send another shock through my body. This one isn't the same of the last few jolts, however, as it instead sends a pleasurable spark through my cock which doesn't hurt anywhere as much as the previous time. Dropping my hands once again I pull away from Luna momentarily to regain my breath before diving back in. Although she is enjoying this it isn't exactly fun for me, she's getting pleasure whilst nothing at all is being done about my hard member.
Moving my attention to her clit, I shuffle my body slightly to get a better angle. Luna lets out a stretched cry of pleasure as my tongue traces around her swollen clit. As I continue, Luna begins to trace her hoof over my bulge, "Do you think you've earned a reward yet?" To answer her I suckle on the button getting another moan of ecstasy as her head rocks back. Giggling she slowly caresses the bulge in my pants, "You're certainly heading in the right direction."
Letting out a frustrated groan I increase the speed of my tongue as it flicks back and forth against her clit. Luna is hardly able to control herself anymore as she sits upright pushing her rump onto my face, before I can react she starts grinding her soaked marehood across my face. It doesn't take long until she reaches her peak, screaming in pleasure she collapses on top of me as her juices coat my face and lips. As she lies on my body I lift my hand to wipe my face clean before she comes back around.
Regaining her breath she finally climbs off me and stands alongside me, "See, was that so hard?"
Sitting up I shake my head, "Do I get my reward now?"
With a sly grin, Luna leans closer to me bringing her muzzle along my ear, "...No." With that she turns to strut out the room as she exaggerated the movement on her hips, "And if you try to relieve yourself" -A sudden magical jolt rushes through my hard member causing me to release a pained yet pleasurable groan- "I'll have to discipline you."
Regaining my breath I finally stand as I shake my head. Something tells me that she is gonna do that all day. Why the fuck did I ever make that bet?
--------------------********** Sex Over **********--------------------
Once Luna was dried off and ready for the day she requested that I make her breakfast, if she ever thought that I was going to disobey then she would cast that same spell to send a pleasurable jolt through my cock. Although that doesn't sound too bad, Luna decided to do it when we were around others and I was forbidden from doing anything about it. It was safe to say that I was feeling humiliated, no matter what she'd occasionally cast the spell leaving me aroused with no chance of any relief.
This is so fucking degrading, I hope Luna is just doing this in the spirit of the bet and that she won't regularly do this afterwards. Another jolt causes me to release a sudden groan as I slump over the kitchen cooker, a number of the kitchen staff suddenly glance to me as I try to wave them off, "Stomach cramps, don't mind me." When they finally turn away and return to the far end of the kitchen I turn to Luna who is sitting at a table acting innocent, "You are so evil."
With an angelic smile, Luna shakes her head, "I don't know what you are referring to, John. Now how is my breakfast coming along?"
"It would come along quicker if I wasn't getting zapped eve-" Another jolt shoots across my body as I cup my hands over my manly area.
"That doesn't sound like a sufficient answer."
Moaning I stand up straight again, "A couple of minutes. In all seriousness though this is degrading."
Luna shrugs again, "You lost the bet, you are mine to play with all day. Keeping you like this should guarantee a bigger... release"
"Yeah, along with pain in the process." Shaking the saucer I start to salt the scrambled eggs, "Can't we have a safety word? Please?"
Laughing Luna shakes her head, "A safety word? That would be too easy. No, what you'll have to do is shout a phrase out loud."
"And what is the phrase? Luna is best pony?"
"What? No that's just silly." Grinning she stands up and moves alongside me to whisper into my ear, "All you'll have to do is shout at the top of your lungs 'I'm getting tired of this orgasm.'"
My eyes widen as I turn my head to her, "Fuck off. There is no way in hell I'm saying that out loud."
"Saying what out loud?" Cadences calls out from behind us causing the two of us to spin to face her.
"Nothing," We both respond in synchronisation.
As Luna steps past Cadence to return to the small table her horn ignites sending a sudden sensation through my body. Groaning out loud Cadences eyes widen as she looks to Luna, "You didn't? Did you?"
Luna shakes her head, "Of course not."
Standing straight again I step up to them, "You know about this?"
With a sheepish smile Cadence steps around me, "I may have given Luna some suggestions on how to get the most out of her bet."
"By sexually torturing me? Christ on a bike, I hope you and Shining don't get up to this shit. It isn't exactly comfortable you know."
Cocking a brow Cadence raises her hoof to point to my crotch, "That says otherwise." Lowering my head I glance down to see that my member is standing to attention underneath my trousers. With a soft chuckle Cadence makes her way further down the kitchen to leave us, "Try not to have too much fun, Luna."
Shaking my head I return to the cooker to check on breakfast, "Why did I ever agree to this bet?"
"Because you would have gotten to do whatever you wished if you won," Luna replies. "No doubt you would have done something similar."
Transferring the eggs and toast to a plate I turn to Luna, "Not like this, no. I would have done something a bit more fun for the two of us."
Levitating the plate from my grip Luna rests it on the table before her, "For some reason, I find that hard to believe. If you weren't enjoying this then you would simply say the safety phrase."
"To repeat my previous response. Fuck off." Another shock pierces my flesh as I let out a sudden yelp.
Tutting Luna shakes a fork back and forth in her magic, "That is no way to speak to a Princess, John. Do I need to put you in your place again?"
Growling I take my own plate over to the table and join Luna, "No. Not unless I get something out of it myself."
"If you behave then you shall be rewarded. We covered this earlier, John,"
"Yeah, I did behave and you decided to cast this bloody spell on me."
Finishing her mouthful of egg, Luna smiles to me. "You can't tell me that you're not enjoying the sensation a little bit." I just raise an eyebrow in response as Luna take a sip from her coffee, "No matter. Once we've had breakfast then we shall return to my room, we've got a couple of hours to kill until we are needed to attend the games."
Lifting a slice of toast I bite into it as I shake my head, "You're not going to keep casting this spell at the games, are you?"
Luna only winks as she lifts her fork once again in her magic, "We shall see."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Slumping forward in my seat I let out a muffled groan as the spell once again assaults my body, I've been putting up with this for the last few hours as we've been sat in the stadium. Never have I been so embarrassed, the fact that Luna seems to be finding this amusing only makes it worse for me. Despite returning to her room and behaving, Luna decided to continue with the spell to ensure I continued to act accordingly.
Thankfully though there aren't that many people in the delegation stand today, Celestia and Luna agreed to attend a number of events by themselves to allow the other to attend to other matters. Not having to worry about Celestia catching us makes me feel immensely better, however I reckon that if she was here then Luna wouldn't risk using the spell.
Regaining my composure I sit up once again, I've been forced to adopt an uncomfortable position though in order to hide the fact that Luna has been keeping me at full sail. As I try to go back to watching the event below, Bernhard looks to me once again, "If you're not feeling well then you should go to sleep. I'm sure they will excuse you for a day."
Shaking my head I mentally want to slap Luna for putting me in this situation, "It's just man flu, I'll be fine."
"Man flu?"
Releasing a fake cough I glance to him, "Yeah, it's a nasty illness. Don't worry though, only human males can catch it. I'll be fine in a couple of days." Lifting my head I glance over my shoulder to Luna as she seems to be watching the event below with an amused expression. Cadence just seems to give Luna a knowing glance whereas Twilight is also looking at me with some concern.
"John, you should probably see a doctor," Twilight adds. "You seem to be really uncomfortable." Gee, I wonder why? Could it be the fact that a certain Alicorn is regularly using a spell on me which is keeping my cock hard in public? Yeah, I think that may be it.
Luna waves her hoof dismissively, "He's just being dramatic. He'll be fine, won't you, John?"
I just glare at Luna for a moment as she maintains that innocent expression, "...Yeah, I'll be fine." Standing up I adjust my trousers and rest my hands in my pockets to try and conceal the situation in my trouser, "I've just got to go to the bathroom."
"Okay, don't take too long." Luna waits until I'm halfway up the steps before casting the spell again, trying my best to fight it I keep my composure as a silent groan escapes my lips. Leaving the delegation stand I quickly run down the corridors to the private room from the previous day, barging through the doors I'm thankful to find only the barmaid as she looks to me with a confused expression.
Rapidly approaching the bar I lean over the surface as another jolt attacks me, I'm able to refrain myself though by biting down on my lips. "T-three glasses of rum." Maybe some booze in my system will make it worse, at least it will stop me from feeling like a complete tit. Once she returns with the glasses I quickly snatch two of them up and drain the glasses as quickly as I can.
As I slam them back down I notice the barmaid's eyes looking at the bulge in my trousers. Pausing her eyes slowly lock back onto mine, "Are you... okay?"
Draining the third glass I twirl it in my hand as I lean against the bar, "No. No, I'm really not. I'm being zapped by some bloody spell which is making me horny as fuck yet hurts at the same time, to make matters worse I can't do fuck all about it. So you can see why I'm not happy."
The barmaid freezes as a heavy shade of crimson paints her white coat. When she finally comprehends what I've just told her she leaves the bottle on the surface before me as she walks off to the back of the bar, "You could probably do with the rest of that."
"Thank you!" I call out to her as she leaves my line of sight. Refilling the glass I quickly drain the glass causing me to shudder slightly.
"Well that wasn't awkward at all, was it?" Cadence asks as she steps alongside me and rests against the bar.
"I honestly don't give a shit at the mo-" Another jolt attacks my member causing me to fall back against the bar as I release a sudden gasp.
Cadence chuckles softly as she offers her hoof to help me up, "Luna is really enjoying that spell."
Taking her hoof she pulls me towards her allowing me to fully stand, "Well I'm not. I never took Luna for being... like this."
"She normally isn't, she is just trying new things. I think your time with her on Hearts and Hooves day was an eye opener for her, a lot has changed when it comes to sex. She just needs to experience new things."
"So she is going to act like a dominatrix? I'm not into this sort of thing, Cadence. I'm a guy, I like to be in charge when it comes to sex."
Cadence shrugs as she levitates another glass from the bar and fills it with rum, "Well... in all honesty, Luna was hoping that you'd win the bet."
Cocking a brow I refill my own glass, "She did?"
Cadence nods, "I may have mentioned to her how fun it can be for the stallion to... take charge of the situation."
"You put this idea in her head? Wait... you said having a stallion take charge, then why is she taking the lead?"
Smirking she takes a sip from her glass, "She was hoping you'd fight back. Overpower her and take charge."
I stare at Cadence momentarily as my brain tries to process this, "She wants me to fight back and take charge? How the fuck am I going to do that with the spell Luna is casting every time I 'misbehave?'" Opening a saddlebag on her flank, Cadence floats a small package and presents it to me. Looking at the item within it seems to be some sort of miniature metal cage with a small emerald and locking mechanism resting at the base, the shape of the cage seems to be for the horn of a Unicorn. "What the fuck is this?"
"It's a magical restraint, it stops the wearer from using their magic. Though advanced Unicorns and Alicorns can easily break through it if they tried."
I hold it out in my hand as I shake my head, "So I'm supposed to get this on her horn? You just said she could break through it."
Winking Cadence finished the rest of her drink, "Yes, she could. I bet you that she won't though, she'll likely not want to."
Putting it back in the package I place it into my pocket, it kind of stands out but at least nobody will see what it is. "I swear to god, you just love to step in and provide advice for our sex life, don't you?"
Chuckling Cadence starts to move for the exit to return to the stand, "I am the Princess of love. Sex is just another way of expressing love." As she reaches the door I'm stunned when the spell activates once again making me lean forward with my hands resting on my legs. "I'm sure you're motivated to get back at her tonight for making you suffer all day."
Standing up straight an evil smirk forms on my lips, "Oh, she is gonna pay." Once Cadence is gone I lift my glass and drain its contents. Slowly as I make my way back towards the delegation stand I take the restraint out once again and examine it. I've got no fucking clue why Cadence has this... oh, god! This best not be from her own personal supply! Wrapping it up I pocket the item as I descend the steps into the delegation stand.
As I take a seat Luna looks to me with a curious expression, "Is everything alright?"
Trying to keep a level expression I turn to Luna, "Everything is fine. There is nothing to worry about."
"...Alright then." As I turn to face the front once again I'm reminded of the spell as it strikes, closing my eyes I'm able to hold back any reaction as it subsides. Watching the event below a grin start to spread over my face as my hand rests on the package in my pocket.
I'm going to get you back tonight. I'll be in charge then, screw the bet.
