The drive back was quiet. Mark kept one hand on the wheel, the other pressed against his temple like he was trying to stop a headache. His jaw was clenched and his whole body tense, like he was holding himself back from doing something reckless.

I knew what he was thinking.

He wanted to go after Cholo. Find him. Hurt him for touching me, for messing with my head right in front of him.

But I didn’t want to talk about Cholo. I didn’t want to think about his hands on my face, his voice in my ear, his eyes watching me like I was some kind of puzzle he needed to figure out.

I wanted to forget. And I knew exactly how I could.

Mark didn’t notice when I moved closer, my hand resting on his thigh. He tensed, but he didn’t react. Not yet.

I let my fingers slide higher, deliberate and slow. That’s when I saw when realization dawned in his green eyes.

“Sage.” His voice held a bit of warning.

And as usual, I ignored it.

I leaned in, pressing my lips to his neck. His breath hitched

  • DADDY'S LITTLE PLAYTHING    CHAPTER 050

    Mark’s POVThe walls of my cell felt like they were closing in.I had spent my life fighting to be on top, to never be trapped, never be at anyone’s mercy. Yet here I was, locked up like some caged animal, waiting for a stupid system I didn’t trust to decide my fate.Sage was the only thing keeping me sane.She visited every day, bringing whatever updates Alice gave her. I didn’t give a damn about Alice’s updates, but Sage’s presence? That was the only thing that mattered. She was my only tie to the outside world, the only person I could be soft with.Alice, on the other hand, I wanted nothing to do with. She had faked her death, disappeared without a trace and now she was back, standing in front of me like nothing had happened, expecting me to just let it go.Like hell I would.The plan was simple. I had men on the outside who could make things happen. My time in here had already made me a target—whoever put me behind bars wasn’t going to stop until I was six feet under and I wasn’t

  • DADDY'S LITTLE PLAYTHING    CHAPTER 049

    Mark hadn’t said a word since we entered the lawyer’s office. His whole body was tense, his fists clenched at his sides like he was holding back from punching something—or someone.I stood next to him, watching as the officer led us inside. The room was plain, just a desk, a few chairs, and a single woman standing near the window. She was wearing a black suit, her dark hair pinned back, looking professional and sharp.But when she turned around, I could literally feel the tension, Mark’s whole body locked up. His breathing stopped for a second. His jaw tightened so much I thought he might crack his teeth.Because the woman standing there, the one who was supposed to be his lawyer—Was his wife.The wife he thought was dead. I sucked in a breath. What the hell?Mark’s reaction was instant.He stormed forward, his hands slamming down on the desk as he glared at her like she was the worst kind of betrayal.“Alice?” His voice was low and dangerous. “You’re supposed to be dead.”She didn’t

    The words hit me harder than they should have.Murder. Really?It wasn’t fair, Mark had saved me, he had saved all of us, but now he was the one being shoved into handcuffs, the one getting dragged outside like some common criminal.I tried to follow, but a cop stepped in front of me, blocking my way. “You’ll have your chance to visit him,” he said coldly. “But not tonight.”And then, just like that—Mark was gone...They wouldn’t let me see him.I had been sitting in the station for hours, my leg bouncing, tapping my fingers nervously on my lap. Around me, Mark’s men were on their phones, making calls, trying to get answers.“He’s not talking,” Hector muttered to me and I perked up.Of course he wasn’t. Mark never explained himself, never defended himself. He just took whatever came, like he already knew how this was going to end.I clenched my fists.No. No Fucking way in hellHe wasn’t going down for this, not for protecting me.I shot up from my seat. “We need a lawyer.”The men e

    Mark straddled him pulled his fists back and slammed it into Cholo’s face with a sickening crunch “You think you can touch her?” Mark snarled, slamming another fist into Cholo’s face. “Think you can play your sick little games?”Cholo grunted, blood pouring from his nose, his lip was split wide open. He tried to throw a punch, but Mark caught his wrist, twisting it at an unnatural angle. A sickening pop filled the air, followed by Cholo’s sharp scream.Mark didn’t stop there.He grabbed Cholo by the throat, lifting him slightly off the ground before slamming him back down with force. Cholo choked, his legs kicking, his fingers clawing at Mark’s arms.I had never seen Mark like this. So full of bloodlust and rage, This wasn’t even just a fight, this was revenge.Cholo gasped for air, his body writhing underneath Mark’s unrelenting grip, he was losing and knew it. His free hand shot out, reaching for the knife and I saw it before Mark did.“No!” I screamed.Mark reacted instantly, kick

    Mark drove fast. Too fast. His fingers gripped the wheel so tight his knuckles were white, his jaw locked with tension. I didn’t say anything. I just sat there, staring at the road ahead, trying to push down the uneasy feeling in my gut. A name. That’s all we had. A name of someone working with Cholo. And Mark was driving straight to him. I shifted in my seat. “Mark, are you sure this is a good idea?” He didn’t take his eyes off the road. “It’s our only lead.” That wasn’t an answer. I exhaled slowly, pressing my fingers against my temple. “And what if it’s a trap?” I asked and his jaw twitched. “Then we walk right into it.” I snapped my head toward him. “Are you serious?” I asked and he glanced at me, his expression unreadable. “Sage, I’m not waiting around for Cholo to make the next move. I’m done playing defense.” I clenched my fists in my lap. He was so damn stubborn. “And what happens if something goes wrong? If this guy is expecting us?” Mark was silent for a moment. Then

    I woke up to the smell of coffee and the sound of Mark pacing. My body ached in the best way possible, a reminder of hot sex we had last night, but the second I opened my eyes, reality came rushing back. The tension between us, Cholo, I just didn’t feel so good .I pulled the sheets tighter around me, pretending to be asleep for a few more seconds, just to gather my thoughts. But Mark sighed beside me and I realized he had been watching me.“You’re awake.” His voice was flat and serious. I felt his eyes on me before I even turned my head. Slowly, I sat up, rubbing the sleep from my face. “Barely.” Mark didn’t smile, he didn’t say anything. He just handed me a cup of coffee and sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the floor like he was trying to hold something back. I took a sip, letting the warmth wake me up. “Okay. What’s up? You look like you wanna say something but don’t know how.” His jaw clenched. Then he reached for his phone and tossed it onto the bed next to me. “Re
