Marcus’s POV

It wasn't a killing blow. I wasn't strong enough for that, and even now, even after everything, I wasn't sure I had it in me to take a life. But it was enough to make him choke and stagger backward, his hands flying to his neck and his eyes bulging with shock and pain. The crowbar clattered to the asphalt at his feet, and he went down on one knee with a strangled sound that was somewhere between a gasp and a scream.

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 133

    Marcus’s POV It wasn't a killing blow. I wasn't strong enough for that, and even now, even after everything, I wasn't sure I had it in me to take a life. But it was enough to make him choke and stagger backward, his hands flying to his neck and his eyes bulging with shock and pain. The crowbar clattered to the asphalt at his feet, and he went down on one knee with a strangled sound that was somewhere between a gasp and a scream. I was out of the car before he hit the ground. My legs were unsteady and my head was spinning from the crash, but I forced myself to keep moving because the second man was already reaching for his pistol. He was fast, faster than I expected, and his hand was on the grip before I could close the distance between us. I dove for the crowbar on the asphalt instead, my fingers closing around the cold metal just as he cleared his holster and raised the gun. The crowbar connected with his forearm before he could pull the trigger. There was a crack that echoed off

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 132

    Marcus’s POV I fumbled for the door lock, my fingers clumsy with adrenaline and terror, and then I stopped because something cold clicked into place in my brain. My father's voice was still coming through the phone, telling me to stay calm and wait for his people to arrive, but I wasn't listening anymore. I was looking at the headrest of my seat and remembering a video I had watched years ago, one of those survival tips you scroll past at two in the morning and think you'll never need. The headrest was designed to detach. You pressed the button at the base and pulled upward, and the two metal rods that held it in place came free with it. They were sharp at the ends and solid enough to do real damage, and I wrapped my fingers around the leather cushion and pulled it loose with a single hard yank. The rods slid out of the seat with a metallic scrape that seemed impossibly loud in the quiet of the wrecked car. The men outside were still walking toward me with their measured, unhurrie

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 131

    Marcus’s POV I wanted to scream at him and tell him that his arrogance and his assumption that he was always the smartest person in the room had put Iris in danger more than once. But yelling at my father wouldn't find my wife, so I swallowed my anger and forced myself to focus. "The black sedan. Do you have a description? A make and model? Anything that could help us track it?" "I have photos. My people took them as a precaution. I'll send them to you now." The photos arrived a moment later, and I stood on the sidewalk outside Meridian Press staring at them on my phone. The car was a dark sedan, unremarkable in every way, the kind of vehicle that blended into traffic and vanished from memory the moment you looked away. But there was something about it that made my skin prickle because I had seen this car before. Not recently, not in any context I could name, but somewhere in the back of my mind a memory was stirring that I couldn't quit

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 130

    Marcus’s POV The letters were a dead end, but I didn't know that yet. I had spent three hours in the conference room at Meridian Press with Rachel the junior editor hovering in the doorway like she wasn't sure whether to offer me coffee or call security. The stack of fan mail had yielded exactly what I expected it to yield: obsession dressed up as admiration, threats wrapped in flowery language, and one unsigned note that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. None of it gave me a name or an address or anything I could take to the police. What it gave me was a pattern. The letters had started arriving six months ago, right around the time the book came out, and they had increased in frequency over the past few weeks. The sender knew details about Iris's life that weren't public knowledge, like her favorite restaurants and her writing habits and the exact route she took to her parents' house. The kind of details that could only co

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 129

    Iris's POVThe morning passed in a blur of forced choices and false compliance, each hour bringing a new delivery and a new opportunity to pretend I was playing along. Margaret returned at ten with another team of assistants, this time carrying handbags that cost more than some cars I had owned. They lined them up on the chaise lounge near the window like soldiers awaiting inspection, each one positioned just so, each one waiting for me to acknowledge its existence."The boss thought you might appreciate some accessories," Margaret said, her voice carefully neutral. "He said a woman of your stature should have options.""My stature. Does the boss always talk about me like I'm a collectible he's acquired?"Margaret didn't answer. She just gestured toward the bags and waited.I walked over to the display and pretended to examine them, running my fingers over leather and suede and exotic skins I couldn't name. They were beautiful, objectivel

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 128

    Iris's POV I woke up in a bed that wasn't mine, and for a long moment I just lay there with my eyes closed, trying to piece together how I had gotten here. The mattress beneath me was impossibly soft, the kind of soft that came from expensive sheets and a frame that didn't creak, and the pillow cradled my head like it had been designed specifically for the shape of my skull. I could smell fresh coffee and something baking, and somewhere in the distance I heard the soft hum of classical music playing from a speaker I couldn't see. The blindfold was gone. The restraints were gone. I lifted my hands in front of my face and flexed my fingers, half expecting to find fur-lined cuffs still wrapped around my wrists. But my skin was bare and unmarked, and someone had dressed me in silk pajamas that felt like they cost more than my first car. I sat up slowly, taking in the room around me. It was beautiful. Not beautiful in the way h

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 70

    Victor's POV I was in my study with a glass of whiskey and a stack of contracts I had no intention of reading. The house was quiet around me, the way it always was, the way I had designed it to be. Silence had been my companion for twenty years and I had made peace with it.

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 59

    Iris’s POV The mall was way too loud for a Tuesday afternoon. Music blasted from three different stores at once, a baby was screaming somewhere near the food court, and a teenager walked past me yelling into her phone about someone named Derek who had apparently "liked her story but didn't text ba

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 54

    Iris’s POV For the first time in weeks, the house felt…strange. That strange quiet way that comes after a storm passes but the air still feels charged, like something might crack open again if you breathe too hard. Marcus moved around the living room, humming under his breath, flipping through

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 50

    Iris’s POV His fingers tightened around my throat. “I know.” The words came out low, steady, and far too calm for the way his hands were pressing into my skin. I clawed at his wrists, my nails digging in, my body twisting beneath him as I tried to pull free. “I know what you’ve been doing.” My
