The Playboy playmate Hugh Hefner's 21-year-old son has been accused of assaulting told E! Online Monday that she's not pressing charges.

Marston Hefner was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor domestic violence Sunday afternoon at Playboy Mansion in Pasadena. He was later freed after posting $20,000 bail.

Police Lt. Rick Aversano told the Los Angeles Times that police were called to the mansion and arrested Hefner after determining that Claire Sinclaire (she was 2011's Playmate of the Year) had minor injuries consistent with an assault.

But Sinclaire on Monday told E! Online that she will not press charges if Marston Hefner makes a public apology and agrees to get counseling. She made the comments while at Pasadena Police Department to obtain an emergency protective order against the 21-year-old Hefner.

"I want him to admit that he did hit me more than once. If he can do all of that and get help, I will never press charges. That's all that I want at this point. Playboy let me know this afternoon that he will be doing this, so I just hope they stick to their word."

There was no official word from the Hefner family or Playboy Monday. An emergency protective order typically is good for three to five days.

Marston is the older of two sons that his famous dad had with ex-wife (and 1989 Playmate of the Year) Kimberley Conrad.
