Chapter Twenty-Eight
It had been weeks since Fred's conjugal visit, and Daphne hadn't heard from him. There were no letters at all. No letters telling her how much he missed her. How much he loved her. Nothing. She was faced with insomnia at the thought that Fred could have fallen out of love with her. Just having that fear was enough to cry throughout the night and believe she was worthless.

Three hours later, Daphne was taken to see the Warden by a Prison Guard, and he had his shotgun out. Naturally, Daphne felt nervous as they approached his door. The Prison Guard knocked on it.
"Who is it?" the Warden asked.
"It's Charlie," Charlie replied. "I'm here with your favorite bitch,"
"Then come in," the Warden replied.
Charlie opened the door, and they walked inside. Daphne thought this would be just another visit to the Warden's office, but a surprise awaited her. A priest in his late twenties with brown hair, green eyes, and a chair had been placed in front of the Warden's desk.
"Hello, Daphne," the Warden said. "This is Father Elton. He's a priest from our church, and he's going to help you rediscover your path to enlightenment,"
Daphne frowned, confused.
"Enlightenment?" she asked. "What are you talking about?"
"You have lost your way, and I'm here to help you," Father Elton said to Daphne before he looked at the Warden. "Please take out what I brought you today,"
The Warden smiled.
"With pleasure," he said.
The Warden opened his top desk drawer and took out a large dildo. Daphne had never seen anything so graphic, and she couldn't believe Father Elton had one.
"Miss Blake, we know you're a sinful woman," Father Elton said. "I'm here to purge as much sin as I can out of you, but there's something I need you to do for me. Now sit down in that chair,"
Daphne didn't say a word when she sat on the chair as she couldn't believe her position.
"I understand that you have a fiancée, and you were planning on getting married," Father Elton said.
Despite her position, she was offended by that remark.
"No, I am getting married once my innocence is proven because I didn't kill Robert," Daphne said.
Father Elton didn't say anything as he walked behind Daphne, grabbed her hair and pulled her head up to face the ceiling. Then Father Elton stood over her.
"You were proven guilty because you are guilty," he said. "Don't make things worse for yourself by lying,"
He let go of her hair, and Daphne faced forward. The Warden gave Daphne a filthy look. Father Elton stood behind her and put his hands on her shoulders.
"As I said before, you have a fiancée," he said. "But I also understand that you were sexually active with this man. Is that something you're going to lie about?"
"N-N-No, I'm not going to lie about that," Daphne replied nervously. "I have been sexually active with Fred, but I haven't heard from him in a while,"
"I see," Father Elton said, unimpressed. "And I understand you used your mouth in your sexual activities?"
"Y-Y-Yes, I did, and so did Fred to pleasure me," Daphne said.
The Warden couldn't believe what a slut Daphne was.
"That's what I thought, and here's what I want you to do," Father Elton said. "I want you to open your mouth and demonstrate how you pleasured your fiancée with your mouth,"
Daphne's eyes widened with shock as the Warden passed Daphne the dildo. Looking at it with her right hand, she began to shake. Father Elton wasn't impressed by this.
"Do as you're told," Father Elton said sternly as he walked beside the Warden. "I haven't got all day,"
Feeling sick about what she was about to do, Daphne opened her mouth and put the dildo in it. She closed her lips around it and demonstrated how she sucked Fred's cock slowly by placing the dildo as far as it would go in her mouth. The Warden was shocked by her display, but Father Elton wasn't. As Daphne knew, when she looked at him, Father Elton was enjoying her display, but he was pretending to be offended.
"I've seen enough," Father Elton said to the Warden before he looked at Daphne. "Take it out of your mouth,"
Daphne was relieved to remove the dildo from her mouth, and Father Elton walked next to her. Then he began stroking her hair with both hands and looked at the Warden.
"What would you like done about her hair?" Father Elton asked.
"Just leave it," the Warden replied.
Father Elton frowned, a little confused.
"Are you sure?" he asked. "She's a woman of sin, and women like her shouldn't have long hair,"
"I said leave it," the Warden said. "I don't want her hair touched. Now let's go down to the showers,"
Daphne didn't like the sound of that at all.
"What?" Daphne asked, alarmed.
"Stand up," the Warden snapped.
Daphne stood up.
"We're taking you to the showers because there's something that needs to be done," the Warden said. "Is that clear?"
Daphne nodded slowly. Then the Warden, Father Elton and Charlie escorted her downstairs to the showers. To Daphne's surprise, chains were hanging from the ceiling and on the floor, and buckets of water were on the floor.
"Take off your clothes," the Warden said.
Daphne took off her clothes and was led to the chains. Father Elton grabbed her hands.
"No!" Daphne said without thinking as she tried to pull her hands away from Father Elton.
"Daphne, do as you're told!" the Warden shouted as she resisted.
Daphne stopped resisting, and Father Elton placed her hands in the cuffs dangling above her. Then he cuffed her feet to the cuffs on the floor. Once she was secure, Father Elton grabbed her face tightly.
"The water in the buckets is holy water," Father Elton said. "The reason I have been brought here is I'm going to wash you from head to toe so the sin can be washed from your body. I understand that the Warden wants to marry you and have his children, and they're not going to be conceived, carried, and delivered from a sinful body like yours. Is that understood?"
"But I'm going to marry Fred," Daphne said without thinking.
Daphne knew she was in serious trouble the second she said that and began to feel terrified. She thought she would be yelled at, but that didn't happen. The Warden walked towards her threateningly.
"Don't be so sure," the Warden said chillingly. "No one is going to prove your innocence because you know that you're not, and once Fred realises that he's not going to want to marry you if you can't spend your life with him,"
Daphne couldn't help but cry.
"But he loves me," she cried.
"Really?" the Warden asked. "Have you heard from him lately?"
"No," she admitted tearfully.
"That's because I've been withholding his letters," the Warden said. "Really nauseating stuff, but you don't deserve to receive anything from him that I don't approve of. One day, he'll realise you don't love him because he won't be receiving a word from you,"
"But he comes to visit me!" she said desperately.
"For now, he visits you, but it won't be long until he stops," the Warden said to Daphne before he turned his attention to Father Elton. "Start the cleansing,"
The Warden walked away from her, and Father Elton walked to the buckets. He put a sponge in the buckets and began to wash her body. Daphne remembered every splash from the bucket as he washed her from head to toe. She shivered with every touch to her body, especially her breasts. The Warden focused on her, and Daphne hated feeling his stare. As Daphne looked at Father Elton, he had no emotion in his eyes. But she looked down further, and there was no question that Father Elton had an erection.

An hour later, after the cleansing, Daphne was still crying. Daphne couldn't believe how violated she felt, but as she lay on her bed in her cell, she heard something she wasn't expecting: Violence. Daphne got off of her bed and looked outside her window. She could see the Warden punching out Father Elton, and he fell on the pavement.
"You son of a bitch!" the Warden shouted. "I saw the way you looked at my woman! I saw that you had a hard-on for her!"
The Warden kicked Father Elton hard in the groin. Father Elton groaned for a moment, and then he got up.
"What did you expect?" Father Elton asked. "You present any man with a hot woman, and of course, they're going to get hard!"
The Warden tried to punch Father Elton again, but he ducked.
"Is that what's bothering you?" Father Elton asked. "Or is it something else?"
"Shut the fuck up!" the Warden shouted.
"Or is it that the Boss won't allow you to have Fred killed?" Father Elton added smugly.
The Warden was about to punch him again, but Father Elton pulled a gun from his coat pocket.
"Confession is good for the soul," Father Elton said darkly.
The Warden wasn't afraid of Father Elton, but that didn't stop him from being frustrated.
"That's what I thought," Father Elton said. "Well, it doesn't matter to me. I'm moving to New York City next week, and there are plenty of women hotter than your beloved Daphne there,"
Daphne couldn't believe what she was hearing. The Warden couldn't arrange to have Fred killed? That's exactly what she wanted to hear.
"That's not what he meant," the Warden said. "He said they wouldn't kill Fred for me. That doesn't mean I can't arrange to kill Fred outside of the family. I've had other people killed that way,"
"So, you're going to wait until no one gives a rat's ass about Daphne anymore before you arrange Fred's murder?" Father Elton asked.
"Exactly,"
Father Elton smiled, and he put his gun away.
"Nice," he said appreciatively. "Well, best of luck to you, but you won't need it. Daphne's a bimbo, and she'll be easy enough to fuck,"
"Hey, you're talking about the woman I love!" the Warden replied, offended.
Daphne felt sick. There was nothing she could do to protect herself and the people that she loved in her life. All she could do was go along with the Warden's sick game until Fred could prove her innocence.

Daphne wasn't there: That was the reason Fred hated getting up in the morning, going to work and going to bed at night. Fred needed Daphne back in his life, by his side. He hated that Coolsville Prison was the only way he could contact her. Whenever he saw Daphne, he hoped to save her and bring her home. But that wasn't the case anymore. As soon as they faced each other in the visiting room, Fred knew that something was wrong, even with the big smile on Daphne's face. Who could smile in a place like that?
"Freddie, it's so good to see you," Daphne said.
"It's good to see you too," Fred replied.
"Do you have any news you can share?" Daphne asked, hopefully.
It never failed to break Fred's heart when he heard the hope in her voice.
"Unfortunately, not," Fred said. "Helen is no longer the publicist for Mystery Inc. She gave her notice,"
"Do you have any other news?" Daphne asked, trying not to sound impatient.
Fred could feel his throat tighten.
"No, I don't," Fred said. "I'm really sorry,"
Daphne sighed.
"That's okay," she said. "I know you're trying,"
"We're going to do more than try," Fred said. "We're going to get you out of here,"
"I know you are," Daphne replied.
That expression from his fiancée never failed to bother Fred, and he always did his best not to show it, but he could never fool Daphne.
"Is there anything I can do to make your life better in there?" Fred asked.
That's when Daphne did something that Fred didn't expect. She smiled quickly, and her eyes widened with happiness. That kind of happiness that would never come from anyone serving time.
"No, you don't have to," Daphne said. "I'm doing okay in here,"
Fred tried not to smile, but he couldn't help it.
"You're doing okay in here?" Fred asked.
Daphne smiled, but she was still trying to come off as positive.
"Look, you know I don't want to be here, but I've made some great friends," Daphne said. "Until you get me out, I'll be okay in here. So, please don't worry, darling,"
Without their knowledge, Daphne and Fred's meeting in the visiting room was being monitored by the Warden in his office, and he was satisfied with Daphne's performance.
"Don't worry," Fred replied. "I'm not worried. I know how strong you really are, and you can take anything,"
"Good girl," the Warden said to himself. "Just keep fooling the bastard,"
