[M] The Dragon, the Princess, and the Knight (Holey & lobo)

[lobo]

Pleased by Gregor's response, the young guard smiled brightly at the man before focusing her gaze back on the performance. "Oniichan is such a smart," Tora murmured absently, understanding why he didn’t want to share all the secrets of the magician. Meanwhile, Amelia sat in silence with a bright blush on her cheeks, hardly able to focus on the performance now that Gregor’s hand had snuck all the way up her dress. She fidgeted slightly beneath his touch, unable to reach under and remove his hand without drawing attention to it. The last thing she wanted was Tora to notice, since the little guard was enjoying the magic show so much.

“Gregor...” Amelia whispered, shifting in her seat once again in an attempt to move his hand from where it rested. Of course, the princess didn’t really mind his touch where it was... she just didn’t want little Bella-pyon to notice and point it out, since she was sure the adorable little bunny would do so. Both of the younger girls seemed rather distracted by the show, though, so she didn’t really have much to worry about at the moment.

As the next act occured, the princess somehow blushed even brighter, while Tora and Bella-pyon clapped loudly for the magician. “Did you see her?” Tora chirped, looking between Amelia and Gregor with a little giggle. “The bunny definitely got a treat while she was in there with him!” she added, causing Amelia to hide behind her hands with embarrassment. “Has the princess done that to you, knight-san?” Bella-pyon asked, tapping Gregor’s arm lightly as she spoke.

Continuing to fiddle under Amelia's dress, Gregor pretended nothing was out of the ordinary as the show continued. He chuckled at Tora's words, giving a nod. "She definitely did," he agreed, watching as the show began to move on to its next magical trick. As the little bunny tapped his arm, the knight turned his attention to her, noting Amelia's blush as he replied, "Of course. It's the princess' most favorite snack, after all." He fully expected this would only deepen her blush, but that was the point, after all.

The magic showed continued with several more fantastic displays, each time the bunnies hinted a bit more that other things were going on, concealed from the crowd. It ended eventually with a flash as all of the bunnies appeared on a soft bed, exhausted, with a triumphant wizard standing above them. The crowd began to applaud, and Gregor chuckled. "Looks like it's over," he remarked.

"Where to next?" he asked Amelia. "They have duels here, but you might also want to check out the Arena fights. There's much to see in the Imperial City, and we're likely to only see a small portion of it during our time here, so it's up to you."

As the performance came to a conclusion, Amelia and the two younger girls clapped for the wizard and his bunny assistants. The dragon princess was well aware of what had taken place during the last trick, and it had caused the blush on her cheeks to turn a rather bright shade of pink. Even Tora and Bella-pyon were blushing lightly, knowing that the bunnies had received rewards for their help during the performance. "Tora really liked the magic show, Oniichan," the guard chirped, but now that it was finished, she was becoming more eager to get back to the palace so she could spend some time with her daddy.

It took a moment for Amelia to decided what it was she wanted to do next, since the hand up her dress was very enticing and rather difficult to ignore. "H-How about we see an Arena fight? Or...or at least a bit of one, and then we can go back to the palace?" she suggested, wanting to spend a bit more time exploring the city before they returned to the palace. Even if she was eager to get back, she was sure that the wait would be well worth it. Plus, she wanted to see as much as the Imperial City as possible, since Gregor had pointed out that it was unlikely for her to see all of it.

Gregor gave a clap or two to congratulate the performer, though he didn't show quite as much appreciation for the performance as Amelia and the younger girls. He had a few ideas how the tricks were pulled, through some combination of magic, preparation, and simple trickery, but with no desire to spoil them, he kept quiet about how he suspected they had been performed. "I'm glad you liked it," he said to Tora with a slight smile, continuing to distract Amelia with his hand up her dress.

Chuckling at the uncertainty of the princess, he gave a nod as she finally settled on something to do. "Sounds like a plan," he said. "There should be some arena fights going on as an opening ceremony for the carnival celebrations. Some of Tora's sisters will be fighting, I believe, and I'm guessing their daddy is fueling them up for the upcoming fight, at the moment." He glanced over to Bella, wondering if he should say goodbye the the young bunny or invite her to come with. He decided instead to leave the decision to Amelia, continuing to distract her with his hand.

The princess' cheeks remained flush as the hand up her dress wasn't removed just yet, and it made it difficult for Amelia to think properly. However, Tora was soon hopping down from her lap, which gave a clear view of the mischief happening up the princess' dress. "Tora wants to see the arena fights!" the guard cheered, luckily not paying enough attention to notice that the knight's hand was hidden up Amelia's dress. Amelia, however, quickly tugged on Gregor's arm, hoping to remove the hand before someone could see and cause her even more embarrassment. What she didn't realize was that little Bella-pyon had noticed, and was giggling softly at the sight.

"Y-Yes, we should go... Let's go," Amelia stammered over her words a bit, standing up from her seat and taking Gregor's hand into her own. She gave him a little tug, her cheeks still a bright shade of pink even though the hand was no longer up her dress. "Would Bella-pyon like to come watch as well?" she asked the young girl, earning a bright smile and eager nod in response. "Yes, please! Bella-pyon would like that very much," the bunny responded, hopping to her own feet now as well.

Amelia smiled at the little bunny before turning her attention to her husband. "Lead the way," she hummed, trying to will away her desire long enough to make it through some of the arena fight.

As Tora hopped off of the princess' lap, Gregor allowed her tugging on his arm to remove his hand from its warm resting place, though the fact that the young bunny giggled wasn't entirely lost on him. It didn't seem like Amelia had noticed, at least, being on the opposite side of him from the young bunny, so he didn't make an issue of it. Laughing a bit, he stood up and nodded, wrapping an arm around her waist and holding her young body a bit closer to him.

Giving her blushy cheeks a kiss, he noted how she went on to invite Bella to come with him, finding it adorable how quickly she was warming up to the young bunny. He chuckled slightly as the bunny quickly hopped to her feet, noting how she innocently flashed him thanks to her short skirt as she did so. Pretending not to have seen anything, he gave Amelia a nod, taking her hand and offering it to Tora to hold as he wrapped an arm around her waist, offering his other hand to the little bunny to hold.

"We should have some time after the fight, if you're feeling a bit... empty," he whispered into her ear, allowing her to interpret it as she liked.

Little Bella-pyon was very excited to get to join the two older girls and the handsome knight, and she eagerly used both of her little hands to latch onto Gregor's as he reached out towards her. She didn't have many friends among the other bunny girls, as most of them were already picking up on the slutty habits of their mothers, so it made her happy to be welcomed into this new group. "Thank you for inviting Bella-pyon!" she chirped, bouncing next to the knight as they began to exit the casino.

The dragon princess, who couldn't seem to get control of her blush, pressed close to Gregor's side and allowed Tora to take her hand as well. When she heard Bella's words of gratitude, she couldn't help but smile fondly at the girl. "You're very welcome. I think we all enjoy your company," the princess responded, walking close to Gregor as they made their way through the casino to reach the exit.

Just as she thought she was getting control of her blush, Amelia felt a warm breath against her ear and the color on her cheeks immediately returned. "A bit empty is beginning to feel like an understatement," she mumbled softly in response, bumping him lightly with her hip as they walked. She was willing herself to be patient though, not wanting to send them back to the palace so soon, even if she was feeling...empty.

"Mama!" Bella-pyon's exclamation caused Amelia to turn her focus away from Gregor and she spotted a bunny dressed in a black leotard. The young bunny released Gregor's hand to run to her mother, embracing the older woman. "Oniichan, Oneechan! This is Mama-pyon!" she introduced her new friends to her mother, who smiled a greeting at Amelia and Gregor.

"You must be Amelia...and Gregor," the older bunny guessed, her eyes practically glued to the knight.

Enjoying the way the dragon princess blushed, squeezing her waist as she pressed closer to him. He chuckled at the words of Bella, nodding and saying, "Amelia seems to have taken a liking to you. She seems to have a soft spot for adorable little girls," he remarked, recalling how well she tended to get along with Tora and the other guards and servants in the Imperial Palace. Though Bella seemed to know entirely too much about adult things, he figured it was due to being around so many of the bunnies in black.

He nodded somewhat as Amelia responded to Bella, chuckling a bit at her mumbled response. "Already getting a bit addicted, are we?" he teased her with a whisper into her ear before nibbling on it, slipping a hand up the back of her dress to caress her rear. "Ask Tora about phantsu," he recommended to her as he felt her undergarments, wondering how she would react to the knowledge of the young guard's own preferred undergarments.

His teasing of his young wife was interrupted by the arrival of an elderly bunny in her mid twenties, wearing the black leotard that indicated she was fair game for the casino patrons to flirt with and seduce... a slutty bunny, in short, who wasn't married to the wizard who owned the casino and performed the magic shows. The way she stared at him with her not at all subtle gaze indicated was a bit unsettling, but he decided he might as well be civil.

"That's right..." he remarked. "And this is Tora. You've heard of us?" He didn't recall ever introducing himself to the bunny, nor did he recall Bella having snuck off to gossip since Amelia had invited her to sit with them, though he realized Amelia's princess title in itself was enough to cause a stir among the casino staff, as she was a high enough ranking aristocrat to have a husband of her own from the Imperial Family.
