The Witch of Silver Springs

Cora walked through the field to the edge of the river and sat her lantern down on a large flat rock. She looked up to the dark moonless night and took a deep cleansing breath, then turned towards the river. She could only see what her lantern lit up, but she definitely heard how energized the river was tonight. Cora was sure other members of her coven were preparing their offerings to the Goddess , as well. The river was one of several places in their area that witches left offerings and did rituals. Cora took her sack off of her back and laid it down in front of the rock. This rock had been used by her family for generations as an alter to the Goddess. She started pulling out her candle and herbs and set them up accordingly on the rock. She then took out the mini chocolate cake and dandelion wine and set them in the center. Sitting down on the ground in front of the alter, Cora started meditating and then called to the Goddess of Witchcraft, asking her to accept her offerings. Cora meditated till she felt the goosebumps cover her flesh and a cool flush through her blood, a sure sign that the Goddess had heard her. She then stood up and gathered her lantern and sack and started back towards her cottage just across the field. The smell of jasmine and moonflower was strong in the air tonight. Cora's cottage was covered in moonflower vines and climbing roses. Cora actually had quite a collection of flowers and herbs growing. She probably had more than most witches in her coven because her cottage was her mother's before she became High Priestess of the coven and moved into the temple. As Cora approached her cottage, she felt a presence on her porch. At first, she didn't see anyone, and she slowed her step as she reached the edge of the rose garden. That's when her friend Reznor stepped out of the shadows of the porch. "Reznor! Fancy meeting you here." Reznor stepped up and met Cora on the stone walkway leading up to her porch. Reznor was a tall witch with broad shoulders and a smooth tan complexion. He towered over Cora, even though she was 5'10". Reznor looked down at her with his dark blue eyes. "We need to talk." Cora's face lit up with amusement. "Yes, we do. Where have you been all week? I tried calling your phone. I tried summoning you. You've been unreachable. Did you find someone?" Reznor's face flushed as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Yes and no. I wasn't with anyone." He stayed in place as Cora started to walk past him towards the porch. "Cora, please stop. I've been doing a lot of..." "Rez, I need to get these clothes off. Come inside, and I'll make us a couple of drinks and snacks, and we can sit on the porch and talk." She looked over to him and smiled as he chewed on his lip, looking worried. He finally smiled back, nodding as he walked behind Cora into her cottage. Twenty minutes later, they were on the porch sipping on a pitcher of Cora's love lemonade that consisted of lavender lemonade and coconut rum and munching on a plate of dried fruits and crackers. She had freshened up and now sat on her porch in panties and a t-shirt, and Reznor had taken off his shoes and shirt. This was a common thing between the two. They often sat on Cora's porch half dressed, or comfortable, as they say, while drinking and talking. Sometimes, they passed out on the porch together. Sometimes, they made it to the den and passed out on the sofa, waking up to their half-naked bodies tangled up together. Sometimes, Reznor slept in one of the spare rooms. They had that kind of relationship. As they finished their first glass and Cora was filling up their glasses for round two, she smirked at Reznor and raised her eye brow. "So, what do we NEED to talk about?" Reznor took a long, deep drink and a slow calming breath, then looked up to Cora's waiting eyes. "Cora, we have been side by side for many years. I thought we had the perfect friendship. I've been having some dreams lately that made me take a step back and look at what I really need and want." His eyes looked down as if he were looking for the courage to say more. Cora stood up, scared that she was about to lose her best friend. Her lip started to quiver "Reznor..." Reznor stood up and grabbed the back of Cora's neck with one hand and pressed the small of her back with his other, drawing her near. Then he sensually brushed his lips over hers, causing her to open her mouth in disbelief. Reznor took that opportunity to go in for a deep, passionate kiss while running his fingers up through Cora's long silky dark brown hair. Cora was in disbelief at first but grabbed onto Reznor's shirt. Reznor moaned and slid his hand down Cora's back to her bottom, where he gave a firm squeeze, then continued sliding his hand down till he found the bottom of her shirt. He went under her shirt and slid her panties down. He deepened their kiss while rubbing and squeezing just under Cora's bottom, sending electrical pulses through her body. Cora wrapped her legs around Reznor's waist, and he carried her over to a lounge chair on her porch, where he removed her shirt and his pants. She stood in front of her longest friend, completely exposed and vulnerable. He looked down and gave a devilish grin as he turned her around and bent her over. The next thing Cora felt was Reznor's mouth kissing down her back to her bottom. He scraped his teeth lightly on her cheeks and proceeded to glide his tongue along her entire center from the back till he got to the soft petals of her center and back up. Loud moans were coming from Cora's throat. Reznor turned her around so she sat in the chair and her started kissing her again while rubbing her center. He moved his mouth down her neck, nibbling as he went with his hardness at her entrance. Cora looked at the stars in the sky as she started to reach the peak of arousal. She was lost in the moment, and the stars above her became one star that came at her like a train. Wake up. Cora woke up in her room shaking and covered in beads of sweat. Her heart was racing. She looked around to find she was alone and in her bedroom. Bang bang bang! "Cora, are you up?"
