Midnite sat in the bar, looking moodily into his glass of wine.
'Another night in this dive,’ he thought. Finishing it off, he looked into the mirror lining the back of the bar. A tall well-muscled black stallion looked back at him, clad in a tightly fitting skirt and pants. With his dark red mane and eyes, he seemed imposing, often a cause of pain, as most were nervous around him. "Another, please," he asked the barman.
A slender ferret replied, "Sure thing, Mac." As his drink was poured he looked around the dimly lit bar and then stopped dead. At the far end, there sat a beautiful filly. Slender and with fine boned features, she was wearing a silken blouse, and a knee length skirt. He gazed in awe as he admired her sky blue body, light violet, zebra-like stripes, and her long flowing mane the same shade. She turned slightly and he stifled a gasp as she flashed him a soft smile; her blue eyes twinkling. Picking up his drink, he moved down the length of the bar and sat near her.
“Hello," he said. She smiled again. He felt his heart skip as she seemed to light up the room. "Ummm, sorry to intrude, but may I buy you a drink?" She tossed her mane lightly, "Why, thank you. That's most kind." She ordered a white wine and he found himself watching the flow of her mane over her shoulders as she moved. She asked him something, but he was lost for a moment. “Pardon?" She laughed lightly, a warm sound, "I said, ‘My name is Clouddancer." He looked down at her outstretched paw and took it, feeling how soft her coat was. "M, Midnite Bloodmane." She tilted her head slightly, "Interesting name." He smiled, "Thank you. Yours is lovely as well. I'd love to count your stripes." She looked to him then laughed, her eyes twinkling, "That's definitely the smoothest pickup line I've ever heard." She leant forward a little, "Would you like to dance?"

"You're a very good dancer," he said as they moved round the floor. She whickered and tossed her mane lightly. Midnite was entranced. She was beautiful, yes, but she seemed to have an inner quality too; a strength. She nestled her head into his shoulder at the slow dance and he smiled happily.
"Mmm, mind if I ask a question?" she asked as he looked down at her. "Hmm?" he wondered. Her eyes sparkled as she looked up slightly at him, "May I kiss you?" He blushed and nodded. With a flick of her tail she kissed him and he felt sparks explode. The kiss went on, and his arms held her close there on the dance floor.

She giggled as they bumped into the hallway, kissing happily. "Mmmm, you really want to count my stripes?" He nodded and groaned, "Oh yes, among other things." She grinned and fitted the hotel room card key into the lock. "Now's your chance."

"You’re so gorgeous," Midnite whinnied as he ran his hoof hands over Cloud’s naked body. She grinned and swished her tail as she ran her paws down his chest to his sheath. "Likewise," she moaned and tilted her head back as he nibbled her neck. "Mmmm, time to start counting."

She moaned as he slowly moved his shaft into her deeply, "Ohhh, yess." She was lying back on the bed with her legs spread wide and he was thrusting his hardness into her as they faced each other. He looked down at her and whickered. She was radiant; her coat glistened with sheen of sweat. The way her breasts moved as they made love was wonderful. She gazed up at him and her eyes shined. She then bit her lips and arched her back, "Oouhhh." She shivered and he moaned as he felt her sex ripple along him.
"Gods you cum so beautifully," he puffed. She giggled then hissed in sharply as she gripped the sheets, "Th, thanks uhhh!" He moaned and thrust into her deeply as she gave a soft scream. They moaned together as his shaft erupted and hot cream gushed into her body.

Cloud giggled as she waited on all fours, her tail lifted high, "Ready, stallion?" He tossed his mane and whickered as he mounted her. He drew a gasp of pleasure from them both. It was faster this time, more aggressive, and the bed creaked as they moved as one. His long shaft thrusted into her deeply and when he moved his paws under to stroke her nipples she cried out and came. With a snort and neigh he emptied himself into her and she answered his cry with a happy whinny of her own.

Cloud panted hard as he held her close, "Ouhh oh gods, you’re amazing!" He stroked her sweaty mane, "You, too." They kissed for a long moment before she giggled. "Want my number?" He laughed. "Tattooed on my arm if need be." As they cuddled, he gently stroked her mane. "Why me?" She looked at him as he spoke. "I can’t believe you go to bed with just anyone you meet." She smiled, "A few reasons. You didn’t act vulgar. Most guys try the tired old 'Hey baby wanna hit the sack with a real man?' routine." He chuckled. "Your pickup line was original and quite charming." He whinnied softly. "And as for the third reason," she grinned, "you’re very handsome." He chuckled and kissed her softly.

"Hello?" Midnite answered the phone. His heart leapt at the voice on the other end. "Oh, hey, Cloud! Oh sure, I'm free tonight. I'll pick you up at six." He hung up and smiled. A whole month had passed and he had seen her almost every night. He whickered to himself. Tonight was going to be special. He drove to her apartment and smiled as she answered the door. She was dressed in a long black gown and he smiled at her loveliness.
"Hey, filly," he greeted. They hugged and kissed. "Hey, horsy." He stroked her back as they held each other close for a long moment. "You're looking great," he smiled. She giggled. "Thank you, kind sir." He took her out to dinner and was surprised at how much she ate. "Cloud?" he asked. "Yes?" He took her hoof paw. "It's been such a wonderful month and I care for you so much. Will you come and live with me?" She smiled and nodded happily, "Gladly."

"That's the last box," he smiled as he stood in the foyer of his house. "Its so big," she looked around as he smiled. "Well, you've only seen the bedroom so far and we are usually too hurried to sightsee." She giggled and hugged his arm. "Well, now you can show me the rest of the place." He led her around and looked at her curiously, "Are you alright, you seem to be, well, prettier somehow." She blushed softly. "Sweet talker." He chuckled and showed her the three extra rooms, the living room with the fireplace and large kitchen. "Wow, how can you afford all this?" she asked. He sat with her on the fireside couch, "I inherited it when my father died." She touched his arm. "Oh, you never told me that." He gazed at her, "I'm glad I can share it with you." She whinnied and they kissed tenderly. The kiss deepened and she giggled as she ran her paws over his broad chest. "Mmm, such a handsome stallion." He flicked his tail and grinned. "Sweet mare that I love so much."

"Uhhh, oh I love you," Cloud panted softly as she rode Midnite slowly. "My sweet Cloud," he panted as he ran his paws over her breasts and thighs. The light from the fireplace flickered over them and she stroked his chest as she arched her back and moaned. "Oohmmm." The couch rocked slightly as he pushed up into her sex and he moaned at the wonderful feeling of her insides. "Midnite, I, uhh, I'm coming" she wickered. He nodded as his shaft swelled. "Me, too." She wriggled her hips and moaned as she shivered then neighed with an orgasm. Her juices ran over his cock as he whinnied as he came with her; his seed shot into her depths. She panted and leant forward to kiss him, their thighs quivered as they held each other close on the couch.

"Cloud? Are you okay in there?" he tapped lightly on the bathroom door. A grunt was his only reply and he shook his head. Two weeks since she had moved in and she was acting very odd. She had refused to make love with the lights on and lately she had been spending more and more time in the bathroom, especially in the mornings. He went to the phone and dialed a number, one with a great number of digits.

A swirling vortex of light appeared in the living room and a tall wolf stepped out. He was clad in a leather jerkin and vest. He seemed like a character from a medieval story.
"Hello, old friend. Great to see you," the wolf said as he clasped Midnite's paw firmly. "Hello, Gareth, welcome to my home again." They sat and talked and presently Cloud came in cautiously. "Ah, you must be Cloud Dancer; I am delighted to meet you." Gareth stood and bowed with a flourish and she giggled. "Who is this charming fellow hun?" Cloud inquired. Midnite chuckled, "This is King Gareth Spotfur of the Eastern Kingdom." Gareth kissed her paw and winked, "Enchanted." She curtsied a little and the wolf smiled. "I can see why Midnite called me, but you had best tell him yourself." Midnite looked at them, "Tell me what?" She sat down and put her paws in her lap, "Midnite, I'm pregnant." He stared and slumped back on the couch, "You, you are?" Gareth stood to one side and let her talk.
"I didn't want to frighten you. That's why I've kept it secret this long." He smiled softly, "Why would I be frightened? This is wonderful news!" He moved over and lay a paw on her tummy. "How far along?" She whickered and flicked her tail, "Almost a month and a half." He counted under his breath, "The first night?" She nodded and giggled. "You were so energetic; I guess we both got lucky." Gareth wagged his tail slowly as he watched the two lovers. She smiled and nuzzled him. "Where are my manners? We're neglecting you, Gareth." He came over and chuckled, "You have every reason to just now." He sat down in a large chair. "Midnite called me to talk about your behavior. I knew at once but I wanted to let you tell him." Midnite blushed, "You must think me a dope for not guessing sooner." He kissed Cloud’s paw. "Cloud, I was going to ask you this next week but I guess it's best I do it now. Will you marry me?" She put her paws to her mouth with a gasp. Tears pricked at her eyes and she nodded, "Yes!" They hugged each other close. Gareth murred and looked away to give them privacy.

Gareth murred as they newlyweds kissed deeply. Cloud's dress was bulged a bit with her three month pregnancy. Midnite felt it just made her even lovelier. At the reception the happy couple was cheerful and gay. All the guests shared their delight. Just as they prepared to go off on the honeymoon Cloud pulled Gareth aside for a moment.
"Thank you for being best man, can we ask you another favor?" He smiled and nodded. "Will you be godfather to our foals?" He smiled broadly, “Gladly." She hugged him and he wagged his tail. "Now, go have a great time."

"Ohh, that feels so good. Mmmm, that's the spot," Cloud moaned as Midnite massaged her lower back for her. They were in the bathtub and he was sitting behind her as he worked to ease her backache. His paws moved round to caress the huge swelling of her belly and she shivered a little. "Oghh, I feel like a fat cow." He chuckled. "You’re big yes, but not fat. You’re lovely and full of life and soon you'll be a mommy." She whinnied softly. "Thank you, darling." She bit her lip as he rubbed her nipples, milk dribbling down her chest. He nuzzled her neck and she giggled. "Honestly, you men and breasts." He chuckled, "Glad Gareth got you those special herbs?" She nodded and sighed, "They really helped with the morning sickness and I don’t feel as depressed." Midnite held her close, "It’s okay to feel nervous at a time like this, and I still love you all the more." She smiled, "I love you too, Midnite."

Cloud gripped Midnite’s paws as she moaned. "UGHHHH!" He held her in his lap as she sweated heavily. "Almost, just a few more pushes," the midwife said as Cloud's tummy rippled. "UHH HUHH!" The mare huffed hard as she pushed; her face haggard with pain and fatigue. "One more, yes!" Loud cries were heard. Midnite whinnied happily, "It’s a boy!" Cloud nodded and grunted as she worked to birth the next one. "A girl!" She lay back in her husband’s arms, exhausted. "I love you, Cloud Dancer," Midnite neighed tenderly as he held her close. "I love you, too." she murmured as she slowly recovered from her ordeal. The foals were cleaned and measured and laid in her arms. The male had her coloring and stripes but his father’s red mane and eyes. “Hello, Arek," Cloud smiled as she stroked his tiny mane. His sister was the image of her mother, down to the stripes and violet eyes. "And you shall be Angel," Midnite whickered softly as he marveled at his tiny daughter. The new parents kissed tenderly, so full of love, as their offspring nursed.
