HAPPY HALLOWEEN
Once a year, Ellie came alive. The rest of the year, she had to shine her
light under a bushel. Halloween was the only
time she could come out to play and use her own name, Eldora and live freely
without hiding her real self.
People always thought her strange. After all, she lived in the musty old cottage
at the edge of the wood and grew all sorts of things. There was always something strange hanging
from the rafters of her back porch. Of
course, not many people ventured to the back porch. The cottage backed up to the woods and
children, from a very young age, were urged to stay clear because nothing good
came out of the woods. She had very few
friends except for her black cat, Beezee and her parrot, Tikka. A few of the townsfolk would come by to purchase
some of her herbs and occasionally she was called upon to make up a poultice
for someone’s festering sores, or bring down the fevers of some of the
townsfolk, otherwise, she was left alone.
Once in a while, some children would come to taunt her but she would
cover them in white light and they would be on their way.
Every year prior to Halloween, Ellie would make it known she
would be away visiting and that a friend of hers would be watching out for the
cottage and Beezee and Tikka. She didn’t think most people would even notice
but just in case, she perpetrated this lie every year. In reality, it was just
Ellie turning into Eldora. She could be
herself, a witch, but people would be frightened of a witch living in their
midst all the time but somehow, at Halloween, it was okay because she would be
gone as soon as the holiday was over and Ellie returned.
Ellie or Eldora had been living this way forever. No one seemed to think how odd it was that
she never grew older, the truth was they didn’t much care as long as she stayed
to herself. One year, prior to Halloween
a special visitor came to call. Ellie
was startled, he came through the back door and just materialized in her
kitchen. She went to check the door. It
was still closed and locked.
“How did you get in?” She inquired.
“Unlike you, I use the powers I have been granted all the
time.”
“And what are you doing here?”
“I was sent by your forbearers to make you see the error of
your ways.”
“Whatever are you talking about?”
“You have been granted special powers, yet you hide
them. These powers were given to you to
share with the world, but you only bring them out sparingly and then only once
a year. I’ve been sent to help you correct those bad habits.”
“But the people don’t know I’m a witch. They’re afraid of witches and ghosts and
such. Anything they cannot see, or feel
or touch frightens them. I’ll help if they ask but I don’t want to impose; I only want to live peacefully here in my
little cottage with Beezee and Tikka.”
“Not anymore. I’m
here to see you share your gifts as they are meant to be shared. From now on you will always be Eldora. Ellie no longer exists.”
“I’m afraid.”
“I’m here to give you the courage and incentives you
need. Now come to me.”
Ellie stepped forth.
She was as meek as the mice that lived in her attic. The visitor morphed into a handsome man, tall
and tanned, with shiny black hair and sparkling black eyes that peered into her
very soul.
“My name is Cade. I was once where you were until centuries
ago, one of your ancestors taught me to be all that I am. I am returning the favor.” He took her in his arms and kissed her. It was the first time, Ellie had ever been
kissed. Is this the kiss of the prince and he’s turning me into a frog, or is he
the frog. He released her and as she stepped back from him, she was happy
to see neither of them had physically changed. Emotionally, was a different
story. She felt young and pretty and
full of lust for this handsome stranger.
“Cade, can you kiss me again?”
“I’m going to do more than that
Ellie. I’m going to impart lessons you
will remember. These lessons will be
repeated until you realize your full potential as a witch, not just at
Halloween but throughout the year.”
“So will you be staying with me
permanently to teach me?”
“I will be with you until the
lessons are learned and firmly instilled in your mind and body.”
“When will these lessons begin?”
“Right now, come with me.” Cade took Ellie to her bedroom. He sat on the edge of the bed, pushed up her
skirt and pulled down her pantalets.
“This is going to hurt, but it must be done,” he told her as the first
smack rained down on her creamy white buttocks.
She winced as the force of the slap registered in her brain and on her
body. The next smack came just as
forcefully only this time she was not as shocked. He delivered each succeeding stroke with an
enforcing statement. After thirteen
spanks, her bottom was throbbing and pulsing and her mind reverberated with
every lesson imprinted by his hand on her backside.
When he finishes the spanking and
stood her up, she realized she was more Eldora than Ellie. Cade kissed her and that kiss sent her into
tailspins. They kiss and the spanking had
awakened desires she never before experienced.
“Sleep now, and dream about
Eldora. I will return if you need any
more lessons.”
Instead of dreaming about Eldora,
Ellie thought about Cade and how many more lessons she would need before she
was fully schooled. Somehow, she didn’t think she would ever learn enough.
Happy Halloween everyone – do you
have an Ellie living in your neighborhood?
An Oldie brought forward for the holiday. Do you remember?

Thanks Roz. Do you celebrate Halloween?
DeleteWell done - you've always been one of the best writers around. I have no doubt that Eldora will NOT be a quick study.
ReplyDeleteGee, do I think you may be a bit prejudiced? But, thanks anyway.
DeleteOh, Sunny. I am SO glad I came by today. Great story, my friend. If I were Eldora, I would need many, many lessons.
