  Those cuffs we leave on her,' said Josephine, as they passed the straps about her upper body. 'We should have some of them in the shop. They will be popular, I think!'

  i think so too,' agreed Armand, as they pulled her legs up and apart, only to fit them into the supports which sprouted up at each side of the chair.

  kAh, what a pretty picture you make!' Josephine smiled, standing back to regard the unfortunate Pauline who was held spread with her most intimate parts on full display before them. The expression of malignant despair in her eyes told them she did not agree with the sentiment. A streak of saliva had appeared on her chin below the ball

  gag.

  "Now for Pierre/ said Armand, pulling the gun from his pocket and moving towards the door. Karen watched them go and, still in restraint herself, looked from the splayed out Pauline to the cocooned Adelle and wondered if it was all real.

  A bumping on the landing outside told her they were returning. A dishevelled Pierre entered the room first, his hands and feet manacled so that his steps were slow and faltering. His mouth fell open and he almost stumbled to the floor when he saw Pauline's situation. Armand did not allow him time to contemplate but pushed the pistol into his back and propelled him towards the hanging harness. Soon the harness was possessed of a new occupant, and with the clicking of the metal ratchet, was hauled up into its former position.

  "You bastards will all pay for this!' came the voice from its prisoner.

  "I do not think so,' replied Josephine. "When the police know who you really are, Monsieur Marquand, you will be out of the way for a very long time!'

  Pierre's attempted reply never went beyond its first syllable, for Armand quickly rendered him speechless in the same manner they had done with Pauline. Josephine had meanwhile returned to Pauline and was occupied in uncoiling the plastic tube which spiralled down from the hanging rubber bottle.

  Armand left the room but returned less than a minute later carrying a ball of string.

  "What are you going to do?' asked Josephine.

  "You will see in a moment!' he said. "Let the solution down the pipe as far as the valve, then close it and place it inside her. I will be quick.'

  If Karen and Pierre had an interest in common, it was their fascination with what Armand and Josephine were doing. Josephine had allowed the soap solution to speed down the tube, but had let no more than a drop emerge before twisting shut the small valve at the base of the pink rubber nozzle where it terminated. The tube of lubricant was already at hand where Pauline had earlier placed it in readiness to use on Karen. Now, it was applied to the nozzle by the smiling Josephine, who stood between Pauline's thighs, ready to insert into Pauline her own instrument of humiliation.

  And insert it she did, the lubricated jelly ensuring its easy passage as it moved in through the anus and up into her rectum. Pauline closed her eyes. Not out of ecstasy but out of despair.. Armand, poised on a stool beside the chair which held Pauline, tied one end of a length of string about the neck of the bottle and passed the other through one of the several metal rings which were set into the ceiling. He jumped down and walked over to the door, letting the string out as he went. Once at the exit, he pulled the string over the top of the door and closed it behind him.

  Three pairs of eyes watched the string tighten and pull the bottle up until its neck pointed to the ceiling instead of downward. Seconds passed and nothing further happened. Then the door opened partially and Armand reappeared with a smile of satisfaction on his sun-tanned face. 'Now we can go,' he said. 'You take Karen outside the room and I will bring Adelle.'

  Josephine located the bathrobe which Karen had worn, and pulled it around her to cover her near nakedness. Karen, still poised on the high heels, was ushered to the door and on to the landing, to be followed by the sightless Adelle, who was guided out carefully by Armand.

  Josephine and Karen at once saw what he had done, for the end of the string was tied around a matchbox which was jammed against the narrow gap of the door, just above the top hinge. Armand hurried back inside and straight to Pauline. With a mischievous grin, he opened the valve which protruded between the cheeks of Pauline's behind. The pipe quivered but the bubbles visible in the liquid did not move. Then, almost as an afterthought, he removed the stainless steel tray from beneath the seat and smiled. 'Now madam, you have the carpet to worry about as well!'

  'You see,' he said, finally closing the door, i now pull out the matchbox. All that stops the string going through is the little knot. When the police arrive, they will never see this. As soon as they open the door, the bottle will be released to fall down and do its work. She will not be able to tell them what is happening and they will not have the time to release her!'

  'Ah, merveilleuxV responded Josephine. 'But, mon dieu,' she continued, turning to Karen, 'is this man not a perverted genius?'

  'God, I almost feel sorry for her,' answered the dishevelled Karen.

  'Feel sorry?' said Armand incredulously. 'She would have done this thing to you, our friend, and even now we cannot free you because of her!'

  'Please,' came the muffled voice of Adelle. 'What is happening?'

  'We must go now,' said Armand, ignoring Adelle, except to say, 'This one can go under the hatch and out of sight. You help Karen and I will make the call to the police from the office here.'

  'Will she be all right?' asked Karen as the car pulled away.

  'Oh yes,' reassured Armand, 'there is plenty of air and I will not drive quickly.'

  'Where are we, Armand, and however did you know where they had taken me?'

  'We are at Montparnasse, south of the river,' he answered.

  'But to find you was not so difficult,' said Josephine, sitting next to her on the back seat. 'When we arrived at the street near to the back of the shop, Armand had only just switched off the lights of the car when we saw them bring you out. That is why they did not see us. But we followed you all they way to the house and entered after them. All the time they held you, we were there. We heard everything they said, all the things they were going to do. But we watched over you, ma cherie, because you belong with us and we knew you would not betray Sonia or ourselves unless they hurt you so much that you could no longer bear it.'

  fcOh, Josephine,' sighed Karen as their lips met. i was afraid they would make me do what they wanted and I would hurt all the people who mean the most to me.'

  fcBut you defied them,' breathed Josephine, pulling Karen closer, 'and they will pay the penalty.'

  Josephine held her as the busy streets and the lights passed by. She slipped her hand inside the bathrobe and found the warmth of Karen's body. Their lips were locked together as the fingers moved inexorably down her stomach and under the lace ruffle, to find her sex moist and inflamed with anticipation, and her thighs parted with expectation. The fingers began to massage her pliant flesh and entered her deeply, raising the glow to a bright flame then letting it die down for a time in order to fuel the next surge.

  They were crossing the Seine and passing over the lie de la Cite, with the myriad lights in the water and all about them, when Josephine fuelled the searing torch within Karen's belly to a point where its flames took her beyond the realms of self control. She threw back her head and began to cry out; each cry becoming louder than the one before. She no longer cared if Armand heard, or the rest of Paris for that matter. She was going to come; nothing could stop it, nothing could prevent the flames from devouring her body. She gasped and heaved in the swirling heat, crying out repeatedly to the whole city as though she had been plunged into an abyss of fire.

  When they reached Sybaris, Karen was released and hurried to her room. Adelle, secured with straps to a chair in the shop, was left, still restrained and hooded, to contemplate whilst Armand and Josephine put the ransacked office back into a state of order. When Karen rejoined them, the room had been restored to almost its former appearance. She had noted the time as she entered. It was past one o'clock in the morning.

  i shall leave
now,' said Armand, 'if you are both happy to deal with Adelle.'

  That's OK,' answered Josephine. "She will have to answer all of our questions before she is released.'

  "Good,' he concluded. Then in the morning I shall find out through my own contacts what has happened to our two friends at Montparnasse!'

  "So,' said Josephine, "she was going to set up a rival business, including blackmail, using Sonia's confidential lists of clients and contacts?'

  'Yes,' replied the helpless Adelle through the thick rubber helmet, if she finds out what I have told you, Pierre will kill me. Please you must not tell them!'

  They will be in the hands of the police,' said Josephine. They will not know what has happened to you.'

  "Shall we release her?' asked Karen. "I don't think there's much point in her being like she is much longer.'

  "Please,' said Adelle, "I wish to go to the bathroom.'

  Josephine arose and they worked together to release Adelle. She sat naked in the chair, her hands over her eyes to shade them from the glare of the lights, her body glistening wet with perspiration.

  'Where will you go now?' asked Karen.

  'I do not know,' replied Adelle. 'I have no one in this city. Everything I had is at Pauline's and I cannot return to that place.'

  Karen and Josephine glanced at each other and Karen said, 'I'll phone Sonia first thing tomorrow. Perhaps something can be arranged.'

  'Yes,' added Josephine, 'and for tonight I will find here a place for her to sleep.'

  After Josephine had taken Adelle upstairs, Karen sat alone and silent for a few minutes with closed eyes, considering the events of the evening, wondering what they would do with Adelle. Her thoughts turned to the far away house, the gardens and the seat beneath the tree, with its peaceful view across the sunlit valley. The image seemed to hover before her in the silent room. She could almost smell the flowers and the pine trees, and hear the birdsongs. And Sonia would be waiting for her to return and share their secret delights together. But in Karen was growing, and had been growing for a long time, the desire to submit wholly to all the house had to offer and to be used in whatever manner Sonia and the others saw fit.

  In a day or so, she would return.
