Disclaimer: Sadly I dont own them, I wish to god I did, but alas,no... except Mark, I do however very shamefaced admit to making this guy up in my very sadly and warped mind!

Authors Note: I can honestly say with the advice and guidance and patience and bullying reading over of my stuff and constantly reassuring me that i wont get laughed off of LJ land by
One hour after leaving the courtroom, Mark Peters was sitting at a desk in his hotel room, writing out a substantial cheque. Finishing off the signature with a flourish he handed it over to the waiting Father and son;
‘’Consider this a bonus, you two played the game to perfection, a job well done!’’
Colin White looked anxiously up at his father who hadn’t made a move to take the cheque, before turning to Mark;
‘’It’s just that you said he wouldn’t go to jail mister, you said you just wanted to teach him a lesson, he wasn’t sposed to get sent to prison or nothing!’’
Colin’s father, whose name Mark couldn’t even recall at that moment shuffled his feet and clutched his sons shoulders in front of him, as if leaning on them, even though at seventeen the son was already almost his fathers height.
‘’Sir, we appreciated the offer of the money to help my wife sir, and we appreciated the fancy doctors in California, and the money you have already transferred to our account is enough for us to live on for a very long time, but you never said nothing about an innocent man goin’ to jail, not Mr Jared sir.’’
Mark smiled viciously at both men in front of him, ‘’Come on now, please don’t tell me you are both really playing this angle with me? You both agreed to this, you both lied to the police, you both filed false accusations, you both took that stand and lied to a Judge and Jury, and now you decide to grow a conscience? Come now... we all knew where this was going to go, please don’t try and insult me now by deciding to play dumb, you both stand to spend a hell of a long time in prison for this as it is...We all got what we wanted from this ok? Jared is where he is going to learn very quickly that I’m the lesser of a hell of a lot of evils, and you guys have got the best of the best of doctors to help with your wife’s illness.’’
He rose from the chair and moved to sit on the edge of the desk facing both men, he made a very imposing figure and he knew it.
‘’I don’t even plan on letting him there that long, I promise.... I will arrange for a flaw in the judgement to arise when the time is right, and Jared will be safe and sound back here with me... ‘’
He smiled again, the smile never reaching his eyes and continued;
‘’Look you don’t want to go backing out on me now, as I’ve already told you, you will spend a hell of a lot longer in prison than I will I can assure you, so, why don’t you both run along, I have taken the liberty of having your house locked up and on the market and where you are heading, none of Jareds friends will find you.’’
He held out his hand in a manner that they knew meant business, shook hands briefly and ushered them out the door.
Once he was alone he sank down onto the bed with a glass of whiskey and smiled to himself. God but that had turned out better than he could ever have thought! Finding that kid had been a stroke of pure luck on his last visit to try and talk sense into Jared. Kid had obviously had a pretty bad day, and one look at him had told Mark he was vulnerable, and ripe for moulding, and a plan had suddenly taken route. A sympathetic conversation and the hinting of the fact that Jared was his Husband and the kid spilled the lot, his past and how ill his mother had taken, and how without the proper treatment she would be dead within months. After that it was just a walk in the park.
Mark had enough money and knew enough of the right people to listen to the kid, and to act faster than normal. Jared had been arrested very publicly and held from that day on without bail until the trial. That had been four months ago, four months rotting in a prison cell wondering what the fuck had happened and why that kid had lied, that is until the day he had seen Mark take the stand for the prosecution, they had little to no concrete evidence except for the word of the kid and his father, and Mark had played the aggrieved and hurt Husband to perfection. The tears on the stand as he spoke of Jareds betrayal, about how he had gone and begged him to come home, even though Jared had hit him on several occasions, and thanks to Chris and Jensen striking him those times he had provided picture proof of Jareds violent behaviour when provoked.
So it had been very easy after that to convince a Jury, that a man of Jareds size could have a temper that had stricken fear into the heart of the vulnerable teenager as he had molested him on several occasions and then the final act of attempted rape, that the kid had been too afraid to report until then. The look of confusion on Jareds face had been priceless as he had watched Mark talk, his features turning to shock and anger as the lies unfolded, but the look of helpless rage on the face of his friends Chris’ when he had realised that Mark had used his actions to bury Jared was one he would relish for a long long time. The bar tender hadn’t fared much better, in fact he had been quite amusing when he had stood up and announced to the courtroom that it was in fact he who had hit Mark that day, not Jared, and Mark had simply sighed and shot a very brilliant sympathetic look Jensens way and announced to the prosecutor how Jensen was practically a mirror image of himself, trying to defend Jareds actions, even covering up for him. Mark smiled to himself at the memory, ahh yes, he had enough to keep him going for a long long time. Now all he had to do was wait, wait until the time was right, Jared had been discredited good and proper now, no one would be listening to his version of events any time soon. Jared would be sentenced in two weeks time, and then he had paid the judge well to have Jared sent to the worst most filthy, vile prison he could get him into, give Jared some time there as some fatso’s bitch and he wouldn’t be so eager to turn his nose up at Mark then. Then maybe he would arrange for Jareds release and maybe, depending on if Jared survived that long, maybe he would take him home.... maybe... or maybe he would leave him there, really all depended on how damaged he was by then... hmmm... he could maybe arrange for the right ‘roomie’ for Jared, to give him enough to break Jared but not disfigure him....
Hey, maybe he would even give that bar tender of Jareds a go, must be some fuck to have given Jared the set of balls he had grown, and anyone could be bought, and he was pretty damn sure that bar tender would do anything for Jared... anyway, he would keep his options open, he had time.
Never let it be said that Mark Peters didn’t fix his mistakes, he had made a huge mistake throwing Jared out, had never realised the valuable asset he was, but he was fixing that now, and it would look just perfect when he was seen to take his convict of a husband back into his arms after spending time in prison.
Mark sighed happily, all had pretty much turned out better than he could have hoped for, he had just started out wanting Jared silenced so as not to do any damage to Marks career, but the way this had gone? He couldn’t have planned it better.
Mark was safe.

Mark just have to be the biggest sickest sociopath that I have ever had the pleasure of hating!!!!!!!
I am surprised of the length that he will go to to get revenge, and he was the one that threw Jared out in the first place!!
And if he think he can do anything with Jensen, he deserves to get hit again.
Jensen or Chris or whoever better get Jared out of that jail now!!!
AND YOU MISSY BETTER FIX THE LINK TO CHAPTER 3 NOW, BEFORE I BLOW SOMETHING INSIDE MY BRAIN!!!
♥big hugs♥
