The Chancellor looked at Wendell then looked at Lucy in amazment.
- As you wish Your Majesty.- Said the Chancellor. He bowed and left.
- Wendell! Are you crazy?! Said Wolf.
Wendell turned to Lucy:
- Lucy dear, go inside with Alex, I'll be there in a moment.
- All right. Don't be late please.
- I won't.
Lucy went inside the palace. Wendell helped Wolf get off the horse, but he didn't untie him.
- Wendell, what's going on here? Untie me please.
- Sorry Wolf, I can't do that. They must see you that way.
- But what happened? How did I get on the horse like that?
- You remember when you were with Virginia?
- Yes. Then felt a pain in my head, and by the way, it still hurts. Then I don't remember anything.
- Well, Lucy hit you by a rock. Natural reaction I would say. She was trying to protect Virginia. Then she suggested to tie your hands and bring you here.
- Oh cripes! Now what will we do?
- Not we. Only you. I don't have any explaining to do.
- Oh yes you have. Maybe not now, but you will when they know the truth.
- Untill that time, I'll think of something.
- Oh yeah?
- Yes my friend. All right I see the guards comming.
- Your Majesty.- Said one of the guards.
- Take him to his room. Do not let him escape. Lock the door, and call my physician to check him.
- Yes Your Majesty.- Said the guard.
They took Wolf to his room, and did exactly how they were ordered by the King.
Virginia entered Tony's room. Mike was playing with his toys. When he saw his mother, he ran to her.
- Mommy!
- Hi sweety, I missed you.
She hugged him, and kissed him. Mike was thrilled by the return of his mom.
- So, how was it with grandpa? Did you have fun?
Mike smiled to her, and nodded for "yes". Then he said:
- Whey is papa?
- Oh, he is working now. You will see him soon. I hope.
Virginia was concerned. Tony noticed that and took Mike from her.
- Come to grandpa little fellow. Want to show mommy your toys?
He looked at Virginia and said:
- Virginia, I think that it's better for you to go and see how Wolf is doing now. I'll stay with Mike.
- Yeah, you're right. I'll go and see how's is he doing now.
Virginia left the room. She wasn't sure where Wolf is now, so she went to Wendell's office to ask Wendell about it. She knocked the door then entered.
- Wendell? Where is Wolf now?
- In your room. I ordered the guards to lock him in there untill my physician arrives.
- I'll go there to see him.
- Virginia,- Wendell stood in front of her.- Whatever happens, don't open the door. Please.
Virginia didn't say anything. She just left and went to her room.
Wolf was locked in the room. He walked around, nervous, angry, didn't know what to do.
- Cripes! What have I done? Ah! What is Wendell going to do?- He said to himself.- I just hope that this will end. But I'm not going to surrender. No, I'll keep playing this game, and I'll win!
At that moment someone knocked the door.
- Who is it?- He said angryly.- Leave me alone! I've had enough for today!
- It's me Wolf.- Virginia replied.
- Oh, Virginia!- He said as he rushed to the door.- Please let me out. I'm fine, I swear! Please open the door!
- I'm sorry Wolf. I can't do that. I just wanted to know how are you doing now.
- Virginia, my love, please open the door. Please.
- Wolf, I'm sorry. I can't. Are you all right in there?
- No, I'm not! Huff-puff! I want to get out!
- Just wait a little bit more. The doctor will see you and then you'll be out.
Wolf knew that this conversation wouldn't lead to anything. So, he decided to put some more acting in it.
- If you can't let me out, then leave! And don't talk tome anymore!- He said, trying to sound as angry as he could.
Tears came out of Virginia's eyes. She wanted to open the door, but she thought that it would be wrong. he might get out and hurt someone.
- I'm sorry Wolf. I can't.- She said and ran away.
She went to Tony's room. Opened the door, entered and closed it behind her. She was crying now.
- Virginia what is it?- Tony said as he rose and came near. He held her face in his hands and said:
- What is it? Is it Wolf? Is he O.K.?
-Dad, I couldn't help him. He's mad at me now.
- What did you say or do?
- He asked me to let him out. You see, Wendell ordered to lock him in our room untill the doctor arrives. When I went there..
- Did you open the door?
- No, I talked to him from outside. I didn't open the door. He asked me to let him out, but I didn't dad. I didn't help him.
She cried. Tony took her in his arms, trying to calm her.
- He'll be fine honey. You'll see. Now stop crying. You can't let your son see you crying.
- He said that he won't talk to me anymore and doesn't want to see me. Dad, I lost him forever.
- No you didn't. He was just angry about being locked. Now stop crying, go and wash your face and come to play with Mike. He missed you alot. Now, go and wash your face.
- O.K.- Said Virginia as she wiped the tears from her face and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She came back and sat on the ground, near Tony and Mike. She didn't say anything. She only smiled at Mike when he looked at her. She only thought about Wolf.
Wolf was sitting on his bed. Thinking about what he said to Virginia.
"Will she forgive me?" he thought, "I am such an idiot! What made me say such a thing?! What is she really leaves?".
While he was lost in his thoughts, he didn't realise that the door was getting opened. Finally, when he smelled a familliar scent he rose and went to the door.
- Wendell!
Wendell entered the room with his physician. wendell ordered the guard to stay near the door and to not let anyone enter the room.
- Wolf, this is Dr. Leonard. He is my physician.
-Hi doc.- Said Wolf and turned to Wendell.- Wendell, you know that I'm all right! Why did you order your men to lock me in here?
- wolf, I had to do so. I'm sorry, but I thought that this would be the best way to continue what we've started. And believe me, it's not going to get better.
- Yeah, I talked to Virginia a while ago. I asked her to open the door, but she refused. And I had to shout at her, and I said that if she wouldn't open the door, then I won't talk to her anymore.
- You're an idiot, do you know that?- Said Wendell.
- Yeah, I know. So, what're we supposed to do?
- You had the brilliant idea, why don't you think of something?
- Well, my brain is not working now.
- As a beginning, Dr. Leonard will help us.- He turned to the doctor as he talked.
- Your Majesty, I don't know what kind of a game you are playing here with your friend, but I sure hope that I can be as helpful as needed to you.
- Thank you doctor.- Said Wendell.- now let me tell you what happened and what is needed from you.
- As you wish Your Majesty.- Said the Chancellor. He bowed and left.
- Wendell! Are you crazy?! Said Wolf.
Wendell turned to Lucy:
- Lucy dear, go inside with Alex, I'll be there in a moment.
- All right. Don't be late please.
- I won't.
Lucy went inside the palace. Wendell helped Wolf get off the horse, but he didn't untie him.
