Princess Wyndillyn, First of Her Name, Heir to the Throne, Lady of Aurums, Flower of Lonestone, was... distracted. She stood upon the balcony of her quarters, hands daintily resting on the railing as she overlooked the city below as the sun just began to peak over the horizon.
She blinked. There was oddly something discordant about her routine this morning. She did the same thing she had done every day; groan and complain to the servants until they let her sleep for another twenty minutes, roll out of bed once that time was up, insist on brushing her own hair, then step out onto the balcony to bask in the sun's rays. Yet today felt... different. Strange.
"Something wrong, princess?" a voice behind Wyndillyn said. She glanced over her shoulder to see her dutiful guard standing at attention by the door. Ever since they had both been thirteen, that woman had been her honor guard and sworn sword. They had also been friends just as long. Wyndillyn smiled as she took in the woman's ginger hair, black painted lips and fingernails, and sterling white armor. She felt only the slightest bit of flustered heat in her body at seeing the imposing woman.
Wyndillyn blinked again as she was hit by another wave of confusion. Her guard was... familiar in a way she couldn't quite define. It was almost... primal. She immediately discarded the thought, however, of
course
Guard was familiar. They'd practically been raised together in the palace.
"Does something feel different to you about today?" Wyndillyn asked. "I can't quite put my finger on it."
"I would hope so," Guard said. "It's your coronation, after all."
Wyndillyn started, but relaxed as the memories returned to her. "Oh! Of... of course it is. Still rather groggy, I suppose."
Guard's lips quirked up into a sly smile. "You did sleep rather heavily."
Something buzzed at the back of Wyndillyn's brain. Had... she and Guard shared a bed last night? No, that would've been improper. Unless they...? Why were the memories so fuzzy?
"We probably shouldn't dally too long, princess. You need to get ready." Guard's voice pulled her out of her puzzlement.
Wyndillyn looked down, realizing she was still in her frilly, lavender-colored nightgown and blushed as she realized just how much of her was on display for Guard. She wasn't sure
why
, though. It... it was just
Guard
.
"Right!" Wyndillyn nodded and stepped back inside at Guard's gesture. Her immense and opulent room was just as she'd always remembered it. Wonderfully furnished with plenty of lounging space, her four-poster bed with gossamer drapes, and a large swath of the room dedicated specifically as a parlor for her to preen at.
"Your undergarments are on the chair there." Guard nodded to indicate which chair. "I picked them out myself."
Wyndillyn smiled at the thoughtfulness, then frowned. "You did? Not... not another servant?"
She was met with a confused look. "Why would another servant pick out your clothing for you?"
"Um... I... I don't know," Wyndillyn said honestly. Trying to hide her embarrassment, she flitted her way over to the parlor and found the chair before her vanity. A lacey pair of burgundy lingerieโgarters and stockings and allโwere laid out for her. "Um..." Wyndillyn said as she picked up the brassiere with a thumb and forefinger. "Is this appropriate?"
Guard just tilted her head at her. "Of course. They're the finest garments in the kingdom, you've never settled for anything less before, princess."
Wyndillyn bit her lip and nodded. Of... of course. That made sense. Besides, she couldn't help but feel a thrill in her heart at the thought of wearing such clothing. She'd look positively
ravishing
in these.
"Right!" Wyndillyn said with a confident nod. She turned to Guard and waited.
"Well?" the woman continued to stare at her. "What are you waiting for?"
"For some privacy?" Wyndillyn said. Guard was nice to have around and everything, but, as pretty and handy and trustworthy as she was, a girl needed a moment alone to change.
"Princess." Guard blinked at her slowly. "I have sworn to protect you at all costs. My life ends when yours does or before. I am to never leave you during the waking hours. Your body is nothing I haven't seen before."
Wyndillyn's head whirled again. That... that was happening a lot today. Maybe she was ill?
"Is everything all right?" Guard asked, suddenly concerned.
Wyndillyn nodded. "Just... just stressed for today, is all."
"Understood."
Princess Wyndillyn only hesitated for a moment longer, giving Guard a furtive glance and blushing once more before removing her nightgown. She began to put on her undergarments, but found the process to be more tedious than she expected.
"Allow me," Guard said, suddenly very close behind her.
"Oh!" Wyndillyn squeaked as firm hands suddenly grasped the straps of her bra and helped set them in place. They then proceeded to continue with the rest of the ensemble. Wyndillyn felt her heart thrum wildly. This... this wasn't proper, was it?
Of course it is,
she thought to herself.
Guard is your friend. This is what friends... and servants are for.
Still, Wyndillyn couldn't help but notice a heat blossoming down below and began radiating throughout the rest of her body as her valiant knight continued dressing her. The process was slow and more than a little handsy. Wyndillyn sighed as she felt and heard Guard's hot breath against her ear. A hand grabbed her waist steady as the other positioned the strap of her panties so that it was nice and snug between her asscheeks. Wyndillyn couldn't stop the thought of Guard's tongue buried in those cheeks from springing unbidden into her mind.
"Theeeere we go~" Guard said in a soft, sultry voice. "Take a look."
Wyndillyn looked into the standing mirror next to her vanity. She looked... stunning. The garb accentuated her form in all the right ways. She couldn't help but giggle as she posed in front of the mirror, picturing the way that noble court would be ogling at her curves. And, behind her, Guard stood with a pleasant smile on her face.
Black-tipped fingers, so soft, yet so strong, gently stroked up and down her ribcage, forcing Wyndillyn to shudder.
"Oh, sensitive this morning, are we?" Guard asked, her tone playful and her smile turning more into a smirk.
"Erm..." was all Wyndillyn could think so say as those fingers trailed higher, and higher, and higher until...
Princess Wyndillyn gasped as hands cupped the underside of her breasts. She squeaked and brushed them away. "S-stop! This isn't right!"
Guard frowned. "What isn't?"
"T-the touching! I'm a princess! I need to save myself for... for... another high lady or something!"
"I... apologize if I did something wrong, my princess," Guard said solemnly. "I was simply admiring your beauty."
"Well, you can admire it
without
your hands!" She crossed her arms over her chest and raised her chin in a show of authority.
Guard lowered her head into a bow and brought a hand up to her breastplate. "Forgive me. But, surely, you can see why it was so easy to make such a folly. You truly are the fairest woman in all the land..." She gestured back to the mirror and Wyndillyn glanced into it. Guard... did have a point. Wyndillyn was practically
radiant
. Everything about her was perfect. She smiled as she admired the curve of her hips and waist, giggled as her chest swayed with her motions, and felt a glimmer of pride at the way her posterior protruded in such a tantalizing way. Truly, she was a prize for the ages.
"I suppose I can forgive such an honest mistake," she found herself saying, continuing to watch. Her form in the mirror was suddenly so fascinating. Had the reflected surface always had that... iridescent quality to it? It almost seemed to pulse with a... with a color that Wyndillyn couldn't quite see, but
felt
instead. Her arms slowly fell from her chest.
"Yes, such a pretty girl." Wyndillyn sighed at the praise, unable to look away from herself as she felt a soft hand stroke her hair and pet her scalp while another began to trace a line down her shoulder. Shouldn't... shouldn't she stop that?
It's fine. She's not touching my boobs again,
