"I've lost her forever." cried Joseph and buried his face in his hands. He looked so sad and desperate on that chair that Charlotte and Mia's hearts were ready to burst.

"Hey." said Charlotte and squeezed his hand gently "She loves you, and that's the point."

"No. It's not enough Charlotte." answered Joseph "I nearly could gain over her. She was always afraid of my enemies. It was the main reason she hesitated to marry me. And now that her worst nightmares came true, I've lost my chance. I've lost…BUT WHO THE HELL CARES!" Joseph was shouting now. He suddenly jumped up and threw his chair to the wall.

Charlotte and Mia were scared; they had never seen him this way before.

"It doesn't matter! I just want to get her back safe and sound. If anything happens to her, I'll kill that bastard, I swear!" He was deathly serious.

"Calm down Joseph! Please calm down." said Charlotte desperately as she stepped a little closer to him. "She'll be all right. Don't worry. Everybody is looking for Clarisse. We'll find her, wherever is she."

"Oh, Clarisse. Where are you?" asked Joseph desperately.

Yes, that was a very good question. Where was Clarisse?

OOOOOOOOOO

Meanwhile on a farm, near the palace…

"What do you want to do with her?" asked Antonio. He looked at Clarisse, who was laying on a couch with bounded hand and foot. She was sleeping deeply from the sleeping injection.

"Well, I don't know yet." answered Moreno and turned to her direction. "She is very beautiful. Just look at her. Those full breasts, perfect figure, unforgettable face. I can understand why he has been waiting for her nearly ten years.What would Joseph say if I attained his goal before him? Hahaha." he was laughing meaningfully.

"Do you wanna…" asked Antonio.

"Well, I would love to. I've never been with a queen before. I'm sure she is very good at screaming. Hahaha."

"Why don't you just kill him?"

"…'Cos there would be no reason for it. His life does not mean anything for him. Dying is a professional risk. I want to hurt him, really hurt. So I had to find the most important thing in his life, and it's Clarisse. I want to see that he's suffering. And begging for someone to shoot him." said Moreno with real hate in his voice.

"So do you want to rape her?"

"Well, don't take our time. First I have a better idea." laughed Moreno.

OOOOOOOOO

A little later in the palace…

"Drink this." said Charlotte and passed a glass of brandy to Joseph.

"No thanks. I need a clear head. We have to go immediately in any moment. And I think…" started Joseph when the phone suddenly started to ring.

"Where is Clarisse?" asked Joseph breathless and angry at the same time as he literally threw himself into the phone." Where is Clarisse, you bastard? I will kill you!"

"Take it easy. Take it easy Joe." he was restful and sure of himself. "She is in safe with me."

"What did you do with her?" Joseph boiled over with rage. Charlotte and Mia listened with eager attention.

"Well, what did I do with her? Let's see it. She is laying on a couch at the moment, and I must say that you have a very good taste. She is extraordinary beautiful. Her creamy breasts and those silky tights…"

"If you just touch her with one finger…" whispered Joseph between his teeth.

"Well I have better parts of my body. Hahaha. Poor Clarisse, she deserves better than you. Oh, sorry if I offended you. Hahaha. If you could see that look on her face, she is so unsatisfied. I think I could give her what she wants."

"Don't dare! If you…"

"Please Joseph, I'm a gentleman. I just want to help you, if you have problems with your… How can I say it? With your capacity… You're an old friend of mine. Just a little favor between friends…"

"What do you want?" asked Joseph.

"What do I want? Want is an ugly word Joseph. I would like to take delight in the sight of your girlfriend. She has beautiful fingers. Did you realize that?"

"Stop playing Moreno and tell me what you want!" said Joseph with anger.

"I would like to make peace. And to prove my intentions, I'll send you a gift. Oh, I think it's already arrived." said Moreno to the phone, when Shades rushed in with a little velvet box in his hand…

"We found it before the front door Joe." said Shades and passed the box to Joseph.

"What is it?" asked Mia and Charlotte at once and stepped closer.

Joseph slowly opened the box… and inside…

There was a cut finger in it…

"Oh my God!" screamed Mia and swooned…
