Egobworder was sitting at a wooden tavern table, huffing at his embarrassing political loss. His stupid rival, Stargazer was gaining more influence in the inner workings of the Galactic Council and he had to put a stop to it, much less Stargazer would come after his throne next. There were only so many space kingdoms, after all, and while their lands weren't neighbors, they were close enough that Egobworder was concerned about a potential invasion. It was the brink of dusk, a perfect time for him to guzzle down pints of beer at the secluded tavern away from all of his worrisome kingdom problems. The typical patrons paid no mind to him as he drank his worries away, chugging more drinks than he normally would. Egobworder waves over the barman and orders another beer.
"You're drinking a lot today," the man said worriedly. He had two pointed horns, similar to cat ears. If Egobworder wasn't too busy trying to drown his problems today with alcohol, he probably would have been nicer to the cute tavern worker.
"Rough day."
Behind his secluded booth, Egobworder saw a woman turn around and slide into the seat across from him. It was Valleystaff again (she kept showing up, wherever Egobworder was. He genuinely had no idea how she keeps appearing everywhere.) the mysterious witch specializing in potions and poisons.
"Troubles again?" she asked, gesturing towards the empty glasses on the table.
"Yeah, fuckin' Stargazer and his stupid rising kingdom." Egobworder normally wouldn't indulge her, but today was pretty bad and he was getting drunk relatively quickly.
"You know why he's gaining so much power?"
"'Cuz the Council's blind to his stupid fuckin' antics?"
Valleystaff laughed. "Nope. What do you know about Sunburst?"
"Uhhhh, some idiotic moron dedicated to protecting Stargazer." Egobworder's words were slurring as he started to drink the new pint the barman brought over.
"Yes, but he has great political influence…Sunburst is way closer to Stargazer. Way closer than a normal bodyguard should ever be and I believe that is a weakness that can be exploited."
"Yeah, sure, Valleystaff," the armored man said, waving his arm dismissively. "I don't know what your plan is, but I won't be getting involved. I don't like your weird witchy magic and I don't give a shit about Stargazer's love life."
She frowned at his comment. "Oh no, I just need you to pick up the pieces afterward. My dear brother can sneak into the palace, find a way to destroy their bond, as I'm sure one views it more than a simple bodyguard-prince friendship. Stargazer would then be left a mess dealing with innerkingdom drama, and you can keep yours unthreatened by his continued expansions."
"Okay, so what do you want in return?"
"I want fertile land worth your weight in gold. Also, give me some money now, I want a pint too."
"Yeah whatever, but only if you can get Stargazer's ass off my tail. Your stupid plan has to succeed or I'm sending you to your death."
Egobworder's head slunk on the table, too drunk to make actually good deals that could benefit his kingdom (he would also probably forget about her beheading on the line tomorrow). Valleystaff called the barman over, ordering several expensive drinks to put on his tab. Egobworder didn't even ask about the shady witch's plan or what Shurilong would plan on doing to break those two up. It didn't matter to him as long as he wasn't threatened anymore.
—-
Valleystaff told Shurilong about their "foolproof" plan to soon thrive with more land, calling it foolproof as it would be impossible for Shurilong to mess up. She had struck a deal with Egobworder, and somehow brewed a magical potion that was then dried and grinded out into powder for Shurilong to somehow sneak into Stargazer's palace and give to Sunburst.
Their plan was simple. Valleystaff knew about Sunburst's pathetic crush on the man he was guarding from danger. Considering how deeply he was in love with his prince, by using an aphrodisiac- in powder form (easy to get to Sunburst via air contamination rather than through his meals), Shurilong could have Sunburst catch the effects and end up doing something stupid with his dick hard, completely ruining their bond and hopefully frazzle Stargazer. Without his loyal bodyguard at his side, the prince would obviously be shaken and stop his territorial expansions, leading for Egobworder to offer the empty fields to Valleystaff and Shurilong for saving their kingdom.
Her simple plan sounded easy enough in theory, but she also wasn't the one sneaking into Stargazer's space castle and drugging his main guard, who was also always on high alert and protecting them both from possible intruders (Shurilong in this case). Depite thag, she tried not to worry. It was a simple plan, she made all the instructions easy to follow for her lizard-brained brother.
Shurilong had been in his forsaken palace for two days and holy fuck were these two boring. They were constantly together, Sunburst on high alert as he followed Stargazer, a few steps behind. He could see Sunburst's stupidly, lovesick expression when he talked to Stargazer, who had a more neutral expression when responding to Sunburst's remarks about everything around them. Did Stargazer seriously not see Sunburst so deeply in love?
Either way, Shurilong finally saw an opening to execute his plan. He was holding the small bottle of powdered aphrodisiac, a light pink powder made of several crushed flowers and moonlit water. Sunburst and Stargazer were having a stroll in a garden, all other servants retired in their rooms. The moon was fully risen over them and small fireflies drifted around. Shurilong was hiding behind a marble statue. Seizing the opportunity, he climbed to the top of the leering marble stone and uncorked the tiny vial.
Unfortunately, Shurilong forgot how much strength was needed to uncork something. Pulling hard sideways, the bottle's lid finally gave way, but it also spilled all of the contents over Stargazer, the pink dust causing him to sneeze. Luckily it didn't have an effect on him yet.
"What was that noise, Sunburst?"
The man's eyes remained vigilant as he summoned his sword before going to retreat his weapon and relaxing.
"Probably nothing."
Oh shit, Valleystaff was going to kill him. She had explained earlier the aphrodisiac would only work if the target had attraction for who they were looking at (she wasn't that evil), and it would be ineffective on Stargazer, if his constantly neutral expression had anything to say about it. It was also made with expensive, high quality ingredients, something hard for both of them to obtain at the moment to make it next to impossible to detect in the bloodstream if tested or hard to tell if the target could identify it in themselves in the first place. Either way, Shurilong fucked himself and his siblings over. They wasted Valleystaff's potion and it wouldn't help Egobworder's kingdom in the stance of the Galactic Council.
When Stargazer sneezed at the pink dust entering his nosed it was clear it only affected him, not Sunburst, who carefully placed his hand on Stargazer's shoulder and checked their surroundings for anything off. He was also studying Stargazer's face but making sure to stay a respectable distance away as he stared.
Shurilong just decided to cut his loses. Valleystaff was going to beat his ass but it wasn't going to be the end of the world over this.

"Achoo!" Stargazer doubled over from the powerful sneeze.
"Stargazer, are you alright?" Sunburst rushed over to him.
"Yes, I am fine, my dear Sunburst. I suppose it's just allergies here."
"Okay." Sunburst took his hand off the rocketeer's shoulder, hoping he wasn't uncomfortable with the physical contact. His heart internally lit up with joy. It was only in private his name was extended to be Stargazer's dear and he hoped it would always stay that way. He paused for a second before stating, "We're in space though."
"Space allergies I guess," Stargazer coughed out, not meeting his eyes.
"Oh okay. If you're feeling unwell, we should go back inside."
"Very well." Stargazer clasped Sunburst's larger hand with both of his and led him to the massive doors leading to his main room. Stargazer sat on the intricately designed couch in the middle of the room and Sunburst stood by him.
"My dear Sunburst," Stargazer said, stroking the back of his hand with his delicate fingertips, "You have such nice, muscular hands."
What was with the sudden compliment? The swordsman let out a laugh. "Yep! I get to wield my flaming sword all day; that would build muscle eventually."
"Ah, your nails are quite dirty though, you should clean them soon."
"Will do. I just need the time to." Sunburst was obedient, willing to do anything Stargazer asked.
"Hmm." Stargazer dipped his head down, lips gently brushing against his knuckles.
"Eh?" Sunburst squeaked out.
"Ahem." Stargazer cleared his throat. "I apologize. There you are."
Sunburst's heart was racing, unsure of what to do. This was a new development in their long, strictly professional (and slightly platonic) relationship. Since Stargazer's recent rise to power and even before then, he would always make sure to maintain a professional appearance towards their relationship, Sunburst only understanding his mannerisms after years of being his guard. Yes, he would sometimes kiss the prince's hand, but that was a professional greeting, a courtesy. It was not in any way polite for royalty to kiss the hands of commoners, and rather dirty.
Stargazer was staring at Sunburst's concentrated face, clearly lost in his own thoughts. His face was slightly tinged pink and he had moved the hand Stargazer kissed up to his own lips, in deep thought.
"Sunburst, please stop conducting yourself like that, it's…distracting."
"Oh!" Sunburst snapped out of his miniature trance. "My apologies."
"Yes, please keep a hold of yourself." Stargazer wasn't sure what Sunburst was doing to be so distracting, but it would not hinder him from behaving normally. Sunburst nodded quickly.
Unable to drop the subject, as it was still lingering in his thoughts, the prince asked, "Is it perhaps your clothes that you've done something different with?"
"Nope! Same armor I always wear."
"Let me examine it."
Sunburst complied, taking off the main chestpiece and helmet for Stargazer. The other man looked at the shiny metal and back at Sunburst before placing the armor on the seat next to him.
"I don't think it was the armor, perhaps something else." He paused. "Maybe it's your shirt that is different."
Stargazer didn't want to admit it but there was something today about Sunburst's chest that he just wanted to see. Sunburst didn't seem to notice, instead choosing to comply with Stargazer's offer, not saying anything. Stargazer had no interest in the shirt, now that it was no longer on the body of his bodyguard. Stargazer moved closer to Sunburst and lightly stroked his muscular chest. Sunburst let out an embarrassing squeak and hoped Stargazer wouldn't say anything.
"Hmm, I don't know what's bothering me about you, but I certainly feel sick to my stomach when you do…certain things." Stargazer continued to stroke his chest.
"Uhhh, I'm sorry?" Sunburst tilted his head in confusion. He tried to ignore Stargazer's fingers on him and his cheeks growing redder the longer Stargazer continued.
"Yes! I feel…rather nervous when you're moving around, such as when you tilted your head."
"I don't mean to make you feel nauseous. Would you like me to leave?" Sunburst asked out of politeness for his friend, but also as he could barely handle Stargazer's hand on him much longer without imploding.
Stargazer's eyes widened under his mask. "No!"
"But you said I was making you feel nauseous, I'm sure having me leave for a while would make it better."
"That idea makes me feel much worse."
"Okay, I'll stay." Sunburst didn't see any other options. He screwed his eyes shut, pretending he didn't feel the gentle fingernails scraping against his torso.
"Ah, thank you, my dear Sunburst. It also isn't often I see you without your helmet, I rather quite enjoy the view."
"Thanks…" Sunburst mumbled.
"Come and sit down by me, would you?"
Sunburst complied, moving his removed armor towards the floor in front of him. Once he was seated, Stargazer moved himself onto his lap. Grabbing his head, Stargazer tilted it downwards and raked his nails up and down Sunburst's scalp and ran his hands around the base of Sword's horns.
Sunburst couldn't look anywhere else but down, right at Stargazer's legs and crotch as he kept playing with Sunburst's horns. His nails sent tingles down Sunburst's neck and soothed his nerves of having Stargazer so close. The sensation felt extremely nice, but he was trying to stay still, ignoring the blood rushing to his face and small noises he wanted to make. It would really suck getting hard when his prince was on top of him, directly seated on his lap.
"Ahh…what are you doing Stargazer?" He internally groaned at the noise that left his lips when he tried to start speaking.
"I don't know. I've just had this urge to…touch you." Stargazer gave him a look that was absolutely ravenous. His hands continued to move lower, now touching Sunburst's muscled arms. Stargazer's light touches were driving Sunburst crazy and he tried to distract himself by looking past Stargazer and out the massive windows.
"Look at me. I like it when your eyes are on me."
Sunburst was sure he was hard now and Stargazer could probably feel it from sitting in his lap.
"Oh my, your heart is racing, dear Sunburst." The prince had one hand set on his chest again while the other was tracing the muscles on his bicep.
"…Uhhh…nothing to concern yourself with Stargazer!"
He frowned. "Anything that is bothering you can concern me. You're overheating too."
"It just must be hot in here!"
"I'll tell my housekeeper to lower the temperature later. As of now, I think I know a way of cooling you down."
"What may that be?"
Stargazer lurched forward and pressed his lips to Sunburst's. He stuck out his tongue and Sunburst let in intrude into his mouth. The effect was the opposite of cooling him down, rather the pressing body of Stargazer close to him and his salivia (while yes, technically cooler) was causing him to heat up further. Sunburst couldn't help but let out a small whimper at the sensation.
"Ah, I apologize for my sudden behavior. I've been feeling the urge to press my lips onto yours more than I normally have."
That implied there is a normal amount of kissing Sunburst that Stargazer wanted to do.
"No, it's fine."
"Your heart is still racing, probably from the heat? Why don't you take off the rest of your armor?"
Sunburst didn't know what else to do but comply as Stargazer got up from his lap. He tried to ignore the tent in his pants as he carefully placed the remaining pieces on the floor before sitting down.
"Oh my SFOTH, I need to taste you. Lick you all over until you are sopping wet."
"Eh??? Excuse me?" Sunburst squeaked at Stargazer's sudden informality.
"I don't know what's going on with me today, but may I?"
"Of course, my prince. You can do whatever you want to me."
"Oh, good. And take off those pants for me, will you? They look terribly restraining right now."
Sunburst complied and sat down again. That was all the sign needed by Stargazer to latch his mouth onto Sunburst and kiss him on the lips again. His hands roamed his body before settling at the base of his neck as they started to make out. Sunburst wasn't sure what to do in this situation. Of course, he always saw Stargazer as a beautiful man, ethereal and unreal, but that was what he was. Someone out of reach like the many stars surrounding them and he considers himself lucky to simply be in Stargazer's presence, as a mere bodyguard.
"You have quite the wonderful body," Stargazer commented as he moved closer towards his neck.
"Thank yo- aaah!" Sunburst was caught off guard as Stargazer began to sink his teeth into Sunburst's flesh.
Stargazer didn't respond as he continued to leave bite marks and hickeys along Sunburst's skin, trailing lower.
"Ehh??? What are you doing Stargazer?"
The prince continues to taste his skin with small licks and bites, smirking at the little noises Sunburst was making. He could feel Stargazer's grip on his sides tighten as he growled out, "You're mine. I have to leave my mark, don't I?"
Sunburst really shouldn't be getting hard at this, but his body betrays him as his cock twitched. His face is covered in embarassment until he realizes Stargazer is hard too, though carefully concealed through his posture of leaning forward and covering his bottom half from view. Once Sunburst found out, he almost couldn't look away, mesmerized.
"Aaaah…!" Sunburst yelped as Stargazer left a particularly deep bite near his shoulder. He giggled and blew a little air on the mark turning red.
"I like it when you do that," Stargazer commented, smiling.
"Do what?"
"Make all those noises, its a wonderful melody on my ears."
"I…uh…could make more if you want?" Sunburst asked cautiously, letting out a shaky laugh.
"Please do, dear Sunburst."
"I'd do anything for you, my prince."
"Good." Stargazer nips at his ear and Sunburst groans at his whispers.
"May I touch you?" Sunburst whispers.
Stargazer pretends to pause and think. "I don't know, can you?"
"May I please, Stargazer Rocket? I promise I'll do a good job," Sunburst practically begs and Stargazer gives in.
"You think so?"
Stargazer leans back a little and Sunburst moves forward, kissing him. Their tongues soon collide and Sunburst gently palms Stargazer's crotch. He remains mostly quiet, in contrast to Sunburst whimpering at Stargazer's lips on his and his hands moving down to touch Sunburst as well.
"Yes, my prince," Sunburst continues.
"Very well, prove it then."
Stargazer's breathing was heavier as Sunburst continued to stroke his erection through his pants. Stargazer's hands moved faster, matching Sunburst's pace.
Soon, Sunburst panted out, "Ah, Stargazer I'm gonna c-"
With that, Stargazer removed his hands from his body.
"Do you think you have the right to finish before me?" Stargazer grinned, teasing Sunburst with his royal status. Sunburst doesn't say anything in response, just whining at the loss of Stargazer's touch.
"Now then, why don't you stop neglecting your duties and take care of me, hmm?"
Stargazer moved off of Sunburst, mourning the loss of the comforting weight on top of him.
"Apologies Stargazer."
"I think you can make up for it through something else."
With that, Stargazer finally took off his clothes, dropping them on the floor next to Sunburst's discarded armor and leaned against the upholstered sidepiece of the couch's end. Leaning back, Stargazer could see Sunburst take a gulp of air.
"You certainly are well endowed, in more places than one, I believe you're wonderful, dear Sunburst."
His face turned even redder when Stargazer complimented him (and called his dick big). "I hope I can satisfy you."
Stargazer smiled at his cute response. "I hope so too. You're beautiful, my Sun."
"Sun?"
"You're a lot of things to me- my bodyguard, companion, dear Sunburst, and Sun, as you light me up with your company. You're mine."
Sunburst gulped at Stargazer's possessive streak.
"I want everyone to know that," Stargazer continued, "I need everyone to know that you belong to me. I marked you, as part of my possessions, you hear?"
"Yes, absolutely."
"Good."
Sunburst leaned down toward Stargazer and took the tip of his cock in his mouth. Stargazer gasped.
"I didn't expect you to do that."
Sunburst hummed and took more of his dick further in his mouth. Stargazer let out a low groan and grapped Sunburst's horns, causing him to choke a little and moan in surprise.
"Look at me."
Sunburst complied and their eyes locked. Sunburst continued to run his tongue along the underside of Stargazer's errction, feeling it twitch in his mouth. At the last moment, Stargazer tore Sunburst's head off of him, the rough treatment on his horns causing him to let out another soft whimper.
"I want to try something else with you."
"Whatever you would like Stargazer."
He opened his mouth and placed two of Sunburst's fingers there, running his tongue over the ridges and making sure they were coated with salivia.
The prince shuffled around, rolling over so his ass would face Sunburst.
"Oh wow," Sunburst commented, breathless.
"I'm glad you're enjoying the view, dear Sunburst. I think you know what to do next, now."
"Are you sure? I don't want to hurt you."
"No, it's fine, I know it feels good; I've tried it before," lowering his voice, Stargazer added, "I thought of you each time I did it."
"You did?"
"I thought of you when I did a lot of things."
Sunburst's neglected erection twitched and he tried to ignore it. One of the swordsman's salivia coated fingers traced Stargazer's entrance, causing him to shiver, before it slowly entered his body. The motion felt awkward and clumsy to him, but Stargazer seemed content. Soon, he added his second finger, moving both in a scissoring motion and curling them up when Stargazer trembled around him.
"Oh yeah, okay, that's good," Stargazer panted.
Sunburst curled his fingers up in a spot deeper and Stargazer froze, back arching.
"Are you okay?" Sunburst asked.
"Do that again," Stargazer demanded. Sunburst complied and he let out a loud moan as his fingers prodded a certain spot, full body jerking upward. Sunburst continued to finger Stargazer, occasionally brushing past thay spot before he finally removed them.
"Stargazer, could you lift your backside a little higher please?"
Stargazer complied, not saying anything. Sunburst's tip entered, causing a slight burn and both of them to moan. In the back of his mind, Stargazer was glad there were no housekeepers around right now, Sunburst was rather loud.
As Sunburst continued to enter him, he kept letting out small keening noises. Once he bottomed out, they paused for a moment, in a trance.
"This feels unreal," Sunburst commented.
"You can start moving now."
Sunburst whimpered each time he moved himself, Stargazer's body being too much for him. He tried to aim for a certain angle, trying to find his prostate that he was touching earlier. When Stargazer froze again, Sunburst decided to move faster, pounding into Stargazer.
"Ahh…! Go faster!"
Sunburst complied with his demands, reaching of of his arms around to grip the rocketeer's dripping cock. With a few quick strokes, synchronized with his pounding into Stargazer's prostate, he soon came, screaming as Sunburst continued to pump into him. Sunburst's pace grew faster and increasingly frantic, as he continued to let out small whimpers. He eventually came, groaning as he burried himself deep into Stargazer. The prince was too tired to object, staying still as Sunburst flopped on top of him. They stayed in that position for a while, both softly panting and resting. Eventually, Stargazer groaned.
"Get off me, you're heavy!"
Sunburst gave his puppy eyes, putting their faces close together. "No calling me your 'dear' this time?"
"No! You're big and going to crush me."
"Aw man..."
Sunburst complied and got off him, whining as his dick left Stargazer's hole, leaking cum everywhere on the couch.
"Oh SFOTH, that's a bigger mess than I thought there would be. The cleaners are going to kill you, dear Sunburst."
"I'm glad I don't know them well then. Most of my job is just spending time protecting you."
"Speaking of, we should get you cleaned up."
As he stood up, Stargazer felt wobbly and almost fell down, if it weren't for the quick reflexes of the swordsman. Stargazer tried to correct himself by standing up straight again, but almost immediately fell into Sunburst's arms again. Sunburst decided to lead the way to the closest bathroom instead, taking his hand walking both of them into another room, with a massive bathtub in the center. He started a warm bath, both chatting as they waited for the water to fill up.

Whatever was that stupid witch's plan was, it didn't work. Egobworder could barely recount the events at the tavern a few nights ago between him and Valleystaff but it didn't matter as now, during one of the long Galactic Council meetings, Stargazer was still continuing to propose more well thought out bills, possibly better than before while still conquering the planets around him. Sunburst was still around, career not jeopardized (like what Valleystaff said would happen), and he was still pissed. The witch and her brother had disappeared once they realized their plan wasn't going accordingly, and Egobworder internally cursed them.
Sunburst took off his metal helmet to adjust the sides of the helm and Egobworder was confused. The golden helmet typically covered his face and upper neck, but when it was gone, Egobworder could see the insane amount of bite marks littered around his neck, some recent while others were older and almost healed. It looked like a vampire mauled him. He wasn't paying attention to the meeting any longer, eyes focused on Stargazer's bodyguard. Stargazer looked at him, leaning back in his seat and smiling before taking his hand and giving it a squeeze. Sunburst blushed and internally, Egobworder wanted to kill himself. Valleystaff's plan had backfired in the worst way possible for him.
