The Witch's Offering

Chapter 3

Welcome back!

For those of you reading The Runesmith Chronicles for the first time I recommend starting with the first book, Oni and the Farmer. Mostly so you have a better understanding of how things like the magic system works and what's going on as I often reference earlier chapters/books.

Chapter 3

Ren pushed himself up, his hands sinking into the lush lawn. Wiping a couple of stray blades of grass off his face, he brought himself up to a kneeling position. Lethe had stepped out of the car to check on him while Katherine was walking around the front of the vehicle rubbing her stomach where it ached from laughing.

Taking in his surroundings, his face fell. The mansion wasn't really a mansion, in his mind at least. Instead of a towering Victorian-style building with a grand courtyard and a circular drive like in the movies, the structure in front of him looked more like a Frank Lloyd Wright building on steroids. Sharp angles and huge windows dominated the house, and water ran down a curved sheet of acrylic that covered part of the walkway leading to the front door. It was certainly a lot larger than the five-bedroom house he shared with Jaycee and a couple of other students just off campus, but still didn't fall into the realm of 'mansion.'

Lethe held out a hand and helped him to his feet as a car's headlights illuminated them from the side. Without thinking, Ren stepped in between the witch and the oncoming car, shielding her naked body from view. His wide eyes as he looked between the naked woman and the catgirl made it plain what he was thinking.

The witch melted against his chest, a hand running down to stroke the front of his pants. "Mmmm," she purred, "nice to see that chivalry isn't dead. But for future reference, we could have been having an orgy and they wouldn't have cared. Even if they did they wouldn't remember by the time they got past the house."

"Wouldn't have cared?" Ren asked. She had mentioned before that the people at the club wouldn't remember the night but why would the people passing by disregard a yard full of people having sex? Someone would at least want to stop and watch, or even join in. With the way she was rubbing him, the last option was sounding like fun.

"Because everyone who lives in this subdivision is in on the existence of magic and monsters," said Katherine. "In fact, I live just across the street so I can be here for Mistress Lethe at a moment's notice. Having our own gated community makes it easier to manage who comes and goes. Those who aren't given permission to enter may see, or even do, many things but will forget it all as soon as they exit the premises. When they leave they will have a feeling of disappointment and no desire to return, regardless of whether or not they joined in the orgy here in the front yard." She looked down at Lethe's hand, "If you are going to keep that up then at least whip it out so I can get a taste instead of wasting it on the inside of his underwear."

The witch smiled at the catgirl and sighed as she pulled her hand away from Ren's groin. "Sadly, I can't let you do that. Xaal would be pissed if I gave her a virgin that was already drained."

"Drained?" asked Ren with a worried expression as he tried to hide his disappointment her hand had stopped.

"Of semen, dear, nothing more. I meant what I said earlier, those under my protection are in no danger from succubi."
