The trappings of court were off now and she was in her private chambers. Her lady-in-waiting was with her, but here, the formality was dropped. She was not a "lady" actually, not a noble, but she and the queen had been fast friends since they were girls, and she managed the details of the queen's personal affairs: directing the staff for her queen's needs and wants, serving as trusted companion and confidante on matters about which no minister could opine.
"Your grace, you need to rest."
"I will. I will. Help me get these things off."
"You know I don't mean just getting to bed. You need REAL sleep. And some relaxation! It has been too long since you let me take care of the rest of your needs!"
The queen giggled like a girl. She knew what Kittley meant. And it had been a while... But she wanted to be talked into it.
"You are such a little slut. It's always about the men with you."
"And you pretend like you've never had a cock between your legs, and we both know your legs spread as easily as the next girl's. Sometimes easier!" Kittley continued to remove the robes and raiment of a day at court, revealing the queen's body. "You look amazing. Have I told you that every woman in the kingdom wishes she had your tits? As big as they are, and still as perky as a girl." In fact, she had been told before, and it was true. The queen's body was the envy of the court, and the sly envious glances of the women were as frequent as the stolen lustful glances of the men.
"I know what you need. Time to review the Palace Guard! I'll get you dressed for the occasion."

The Queen moved slowly down the great hall, examining the armor, the uniforms, the weaponry, as the palace guards stood at attention in a single line. Disciplined as they were, their eyes were straight ahead until she addressed them. Kittley's choice of garment had raised the queen's breast until her cleavage was on spectacular display, but even so, their eyes never strayed. The Queen herself, however, was fully aware of how her chest looked, and equally, of the slit in her armored skirt, the heeled boots she wore, and short sword at her belt. Her shoulders were in armor, and a corset protected her slim waist. It was the ceremonial military uniform of the ladies of her house, appropriate to the occasion, and designed to make them the center of attention.
She passed slowly in front of each soldier. Kittley paced the Queen, but she walked behind the line of soldiers. They could not see her, but the Queen could. She tried to avoid Kittley's gaze from behind the line of as her lady-in-waiting made lewd gestures and mouthed messages about each man. For this one, it was a dismissive shake of the head, holding her thumb and forefinger a short two inches apart. Further down the line, an approving rubbing of her belly with her left hand, as her right simulated the stroking of a cock into her mouth. The Queen glared at her. Later, an almost audible, hissing "Yesss..." as she held up one arm, and made a slashing motion from fist to elbow. "THAT LONG!" she mouthed silently. The Queen's eyes grew wide, and she could feel the curiosity dampening her insides. Finally, at the end of the line, Kittley indicated girth with the circled fingers of both hands, then covered her crotch with her hands as she pressed her knees together, giving a faux frightened look. The Queen almost laughed out loud.
She completed the ceremony and dismissed the guards. The day's chores nearly complete, she and Kittley strolled the grounds until dusk.

As the Queen settled into bed, Kittley gave her a kiss and began to leave. As she was about to close the door, she leaned back in briefly, "Don't doze off majesty - you have one more supplicant to see. Sweet dreams!" she cried out, over the queen's protest.
A few moments later, the door to her bedchamber opened. Kittley, dressed in black gowns, moved silently in, leading the chiseled frame of one of the largest palace guards the Queen had ever seen. They were hard to identify in their helmets, but this one she had seen. Knew him well, in fact. He had fought with her father, earned honors in combat, despite coming from a remote and exotic corner of the empire. He was in the real guards, not just a noble son doing a short ceremonial tour, and he often took part in the ritual combats that were always dangerous, and sometimes deadly. He was one of the most dangerous fighters in the guard, and with his size and strength came a grace and skill unusual in one so large. And he was young.
He still wore his armor, and Kittley drew him to a chair, sat him down, and removed his helmet. He knew why he was here. He would have been given the opportunity to decline, with no offense and no dishonor, but why would he? He needed to curry no favor, but his pleasure and hers would be reason enough to accept the invitation. But was there the faintest bit of nervousness in his breath? The wonder and the imagination catching up to an even more spectacular reality, as Kittley loosened the armor at his shoulders, waist, and thighs.
The Queen watched, her eyes drawn over the bulging muscles, the taught skin, and the smooth ebony of his hairless head. His skin shone clean and tight over the arms, the chest, the muscles of the abdomen. Kittley began to rub scented oil on his muscled chest, his arms, and shoulders, until he gleamed even more in the flickering candlelight. The queen felt her own arousal at the sight, imagining her own hands on that perfect body. Abruptly, Kittley stopped, and withdrew with a bow to the queen.
