Finding You Always

Chapter 63: Madness

They rushed into the station, where Thomas was waiting with Leroy and Happy. Accompanying the Charmings was Regina, Robin, Neal, Red, and Chase. Hook was also there in his cell and looked very concerned about the situation.

"It was waiting on your desk when I got back," Thomas said. David picked up the disc and looked at Emma, who grabbed her laptop from her desk.

"Whatever is on that disc is going to be painful to watch," Regina warned.

"I have to see her," Charming insisted.

"We're not going anywhere either," Emma added. The twins nodded and joined hands. Emma took a deep breath and placed the DVD into the drive, before hitting play. Drizella's face appeared with a smug smirk.

"Hello Charming...I'm sure you're just beside yourself worrying about your precious Snow White and as you can see, she's right here with me," Drizella said, as she briefly panned the camera to the captive princess, before turning the camera back on herself.

"I warned you not to keep refusing me. So now, your princess is going to pay the price. This is what happens when you cross the Tremaine family," she said. They watched as Rodmilla Tremaine would up and brought a harsh, woven whip down on Snow's exposed back.

"SNOW!" Charming cried, as he and Emma held onto each other.

"Mom..." Emma choked back a sob, as her mother's tortured screams filled the room.

"Oh dear Gods..." Red cried, as she could barely stomach seeing her best friend like this. Tears slipped down Regina's cheeks, as Robin held her. In a very dark place inside her, there was a time when she would have enjoyed this, but no more. Snow was her friend...her step-daughter and she felt sick.

Eva sobbed on her brother's shoulder, as he cried with her. When Rodmilla finally spent the last lash on her, Charming was on his knees, gut wrenching sobs racking his body. Emma clung to him and cried with him, as he cradled her head.

"I hope you enjoyed the show, Charming family," she said, pausing for a beat.

"You know where to find me, Charming. If you want your precious Snow back, then you'll give me what I want. You have twelve hours or your darling Snow gets another well deserved lashing," Drizella threatened, as the screen went black.

The sorrow in David's eyes became fury, as he pulled himself to his feet and grabbed his gun and sword. Emma swiped her tears away and Leo pulled away from Eva. She nodded and accepted Robin and Regina's hugs, their silent promise to stay with her. No one stopped the three Charmings from storming in the direction of the Tremaine mansion.

Snow sighed dreamily, as her husband kissed her lazily with soft pecks and languid locks. Another harrowing experience, on their honeymoon no less, had nearly led her to losing him. But she had made it up to him, more than once, for they proved they were insatiable for each other as usual. It was their honeymoon, but not their first wedding, so lovemaking was not new to them. But it was no less amazing...in fact, it kept getting better with time. The night had been filled with unbridled passion, as Charming proved he was a practiced lover.

She was still pinned beneath him after their latest bout, him still inside her, as they bathed in the afterglow and she was still coming down. She mewled, as his kisses trailed down to her neck.

"Mmm...oh Charming...I'm so sorry," she lamented, as she happened to glance over at the now covered mirror. They had learned long ago that the Queen or her creepy mirror friend could spy on them through any looking glass.
