His Tempting Obsession Chapter 18
Schuyler's P. O. V.The sunlight was hitting my eyes when I woke up. I could tell that it's already nearly afternoon because it was hurting my skin. I looked around me, but found no one.I don't even know where I am!'What happened to me?' I tried to sit on the bed, but my whole body was shaking so I instantly fell back on the bed. 'Where am I?'I tried to recall what I last remember, but all I knew was the fact that Ezekiel's mother hurt me after informing me that we'll have dinner with her husband!Oh, no.. The dinner! F*ck!Despite my trembling body, I quickly forced myself to stand up, until I ended up falling on the ground."Agh!" I thinned my lips after hitting the tiled floor. "Sh*t.."My face retorted as I felt the pain in my knees before I tried to get up again and sat on the edge of the bed. It took me a moment before I finally regained some strength to stand and made my way out of this bedroom that I was never familiar with!The maid gazed at me with shock in her eyes, she

Schuyler's P. O. V."Dad, let my wife eat first." Ezekiel said in an authoritative voice.His father glanced at him, matching the way he looks before turning back to me. Watching them together, I can say that their resemblance can never be questioned. They look exactly the same, just that Ezekiel has a younger feature and has his mothers eyes.Midnight blue eyes. It looks terrifyingly cold and cruel whenever he would lay his eyes on me, but dangerously menacing as he faces everyone. Or maybe, that's just really how I view it after everything he did for me."Schuyler.." His father called, snapping me back to reality. "What do you know about my son?""Dad.." There was a dangerous threat in my husband's voice, like his father just awakened something he shouldn't have inside him.But.. What do I know about my husband? I turned to Ezekiel and carefully looked into his eyes before answering to his father."He's my husband, we're married.." His emotionless face never changed as he listened
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 20
Schuyler’s P. O. V.I shut my mouth after hearing him say that, but while we were on our way, I couldn’t control myself anymore. I turn to face him again with a determined look in my eyes. Ezekiel didn’t even bother looking at me, he was focused on driving.“Can’t I just come with you?” I was hoping that he’d agree and just bring me along with him, but when his sharp eyes met mine, I knew that he wouldn’t bringing me along. “Ezekiel, please…”He clenched his jaw and I even saw when his hold tightened on the steering wheel. “No.” He said with finality in his voice.“Why not?” I asked while crossing my arms in my chest. “Can’t I know anything about your job—”“Not now!” He quickly cut me off before parking the car in front of the house. Hunter was there with a man beside him. Ezekiel got out of the car before opening it for me. I didn’t want to move. I really wanted to come with him, but Ezekiel was also determined not to bring me with him.He pulled me out of the car before closing t
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 21
Schuyler's P. O. V.After that call with Ezekiel, I had to patiently wait for him to come home. He didn't say anything to me and just dropped the call, as if he wasn't talking to his wife! Anne, on the other hand, was strangely watching my every movement. I don't know what got into her, but after hearing my conversation with Ezekiel, Anne's mood changed, but I can't even bring myself to care much for her.I sighed and started pacing back and forth again. Ezekiel had been taking so long. It's near midnight and he still hasn't come back. I know that he owns a huge business, but what are his employees doing for him to stay until this late hour just to finish the job?I was about to ask Anne to call my husband when we heard a car pulling over in front of the house. I quickly gathered my strength and hurried to the door. And when I opened it, I was beyond surprised after seeing Ezekiel covered with… blood? No, that was probably just paint!How could there be blood on him, right? He was st
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 22
Schuyler's P. O. V.Ever since I started wondering about Ezekiel's job, I slowly noticed how he was trying to avoid letting me know what his real job was. At some point, I felt really offended by what he was trying to do, but then, I realized that maybe he wasn't just willing to let me know about everything yet.. Or I'm really not deserving to know a single detail about his job?"Mrs. Riego, we're here," Hunter called me after parking the car in front of a restaurant.I glanced outside and saw Georgi standing there while holding a paper bag. He was looking around him, probably searching for me in the crowds.I opened the door and was about to go out when Hunter spoke to me."Should I come with you?" He suddenly asked, and when I turned to face him, I found him glancing at Georgi too. "Do whatever your boss says, Hunter." I blatantly said before getting out.I didn't look behind me or check if he followed and just went straight to Georgi. His face brightened after seeing me."Hey!" He
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 23
Schuyler's P. O. V.'Where are we?' I tried to roam my eyes around me, but I couldn't guess where we really were. I remember that we're in a secluded area and that the gates were heavily guarded, but I still can't make a guess what place this is.I tried to stand up to take a walk around, but just as I did, the guards around me suddenly became alert. I knew that wherever I go now, they would be there to follow me. Ezekiel had made sure to have me guarded before he left with Hunter.I sighed before sitting back down. I feel so uncomfortable being around these men that I was never familiar with. And on top of that, they even looked like criminals to me.When the door finally opened after an hour, I first saw Hunter before Ezekiel entered the room. His face was too dark and can give anyone the impression that he's willing to kill any time he wants."Ezekiel.." I stood up and waited for him to reach me. "Are you done here?"He threw a quick glance to everyone who was watching him and just
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 24
Schuyler's P. O. V.Ezekiel looked away from me and I had to sigh deeply before slightly pushing him away. He didn't do anything and just let me get away from him.I picked up the paper bag I brought with me. Coming here was a mistake. I shouldn't have run to him after what happened. Why did I even do that?I could feel my tears forming in my eyes when Ezekiel was about to face me and I immediately turned around so he could not see me."I-I'll go back to your house now," I bit my lip after saying that.How foolish of me to think that Ezekiel is someone I can run to and bring comfort to me. I was wrong! He only wanted me for himself just so he could have an heir. That's probably the reason why he was mad at Georgi. Of course, we have a contract and he clearly wouldn't want to care for someone's child.I went to the door without looking back at him and after I got out of the room, I saw Hunter there, standing and just waiting for us. My face darkened after seeing him, but Hunter doesn't
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 25
Schuyler's P. O. V.Ezekiel stepped on the break of the car after turning to a vacant way. He pulled something out from his back, before checking on it. My eyes widened in shock and my lips slightly parted while watching him check on his gun.I gulped before Ezekiel averted his eyes on me. He looked too serious and his eyes were screaming danger, but despite that, I couldn't feel any fear for him, but rather, I felt worried about what he might do next.I was about to ask him when I covered my head in shock after hearing a gunshot from the backseats window."F*ck!" I heard Ezekiel hissed in anger before I felt him pulling my arms and guiding me to look at him. "Schuyler!" He angrily called my name. And when I eyed him back with tears cascading down on my face, he was taken aback before he clenched his jaw and looked away from me. I couldn't say anything when Ezekiel sighed deeply before his hand cupped my face and he wiped my tears."Stay here, I'll take care of everything." He whispe

His Tempting Obsession Epilogue
Ezekiel's P. O. V.“I saw mommy in the dressing room!” A smirk formed in my lips as soon as Stormi ran to me.As days passed, she became more of me in every physical way, but her attitude was more of her mother. Although my wife says otherwise.“She was so pretty!” She cupped both of her cheeks. “You should come see her now!”Of course, I’d come see my wife, but before that, I must take care of these first. The picnic basket was filled with most of Stormi's snacks. It was all her request as soon as Schuyler went to take a bath.“Did you bring my strawberry cupcakes, dad?” I heard my daughter asking when I saw her sitting at the table and looking at me with an analyzing eyes.I tilted my head to the side, “Don't sit at the table. Your mom might see you.”She pouted her lips before she crawled out of the table and crossed our distance. “Let's go to mommy, dad!”I carried her in my arms as we both went upstairs. Stormi was singing loudly on our way and I couldn't help the smile on my fac
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 135
Schuyler's P. O. V.Gunshots filled the air and Stormi woke up screaming because of that. Mr. Andrews kept on cursing, but he didn't open the door of his van. The driver and guards went out and we're trying to fix the tires as soon as they can, but I saw them dropping dead before they could even move an inch towards the tires. My heart was beating fast and nervous, but I still tried to calm myself.“Mr. Andrews, they're ambushing us!” I heard someone say something over the speaker.“They're too many, sir!”“They must be expecting us!”“Fuck, damn it!” Mr. Andrews shouted in anger. “So, this is why they didn't come right away, huh?! That fucker had been planning this!”Stormi screamed more when gunshots were directed at the van’s door, forcing it open, so Mr. Andrews looked in our direction before he smirked evilly.“You…” She pulled Stormi from me.“No! Let her go!” I kept on screaming to have my daughter back, until he opened the door and exited the van. “Give her back to me! Stormi!

Schuyler's P. O. V.“You’re a traitor!” I snapped at him.“A traitor?” There was a smug look on his face. “What makes your family different?”“I have nothing to do with my aunt!” “She's still your family,” he dismissively said before he turned his back on me. “Sedate her!”Worry creeped into me as my eyes widened. “No, please! Please, don't!”There were two nurses who came to me and tried to hold both of my arms while the other scientist took out a syringe filled with something. The man left us and that scientist held my hair before pulling it to the side. I tried to get away from his hold, but it only gave him access to inject the syringe in my neck. It was stingingly painful, but I couldn't get away from them.My eyes fixated on my daughter as I hoped to leave my face… My tears flowed while I felt my boy weakening again and they laid me back on the hospital bed, tightening the ties even more.My vision was spinning and darkness was slowly engulfing me again when I heard a whisper i
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 133
Schuyler's P. O. V.“It's incredible how they do that!”“These creatures can be of the same bloodline, but they don't carry the same genes. How is that even possible?”A small groan escaped my lips as soon as I felt myself waking up because of those voices I’m hearing around me. My vision was still blurry when I opened my eyes and my temple was aching so bad. I could feel a sticky feeling from my temple too, dripping to my jaw.When my vision finally cleared up, only then I realized what was happening around me. There were a lot of people piling at the corner and looking at something on the screen. Their faces say just how happy and thrilled they are to what they're looking at.My attention was only averted as soon as I felt a stinging pain in my arm and I saw a needle there, buried in my skin and taking out my blood. Something that's been weakening my body and it was connected to the machines in the middle of the room, where it was also connected to the computer they're facing.‘Wher

Schuyler’s P. O. V.“Where’s Stormi?” Zehan greeted me with her question. She was walking towards me with Archer beside her.I smiled and hugged her before I knelt to level Archer. “Hey, there, little Arch. Stormi’s with her dad so you two can’t play today.”Silently, he nodded at me before letting go of his Mom’s hand. He walked towards the couch and just turned the TV on. I straightened myself before facing Zehan again.“I heard what happened,” she started in a soft voice. “How are you, Schuyler?”A small smile grazed my lips before I shook my head lightly, “On the process.”Her eyes became gentle before I felt her reaching out to hold my hand, “Hey… It’s gonna be alright.”I slowly nodded at her before noticing a figure on our side. When I shifted my attention there, I saw Honey with an unexplainable look in her eyes as she walked towards me. I heard Zehan clearing her throat before she excused herself and Honey stood in front of me.“Schuyler…” There are only a few times that she

Schuyler's P. O. V.“Do you also know?”There was a deafening silence between us after I asked that question. A tight smile appeared on my lips as I slowly caressed my daughter's hair while she was asleep in my lap.“Why did you not tell me?” I knew that despite my low voice, he could tell how much pain I was in.He sighed deeply before I felt him approaching me and he sat on my side.“Would you accept it if I told you?” Slowly, I glanced at him with no emotion in me. “But still… I recently just found out about it. And you were already living with him.” Archie clenched his jaw as he looked down. “Beatrix confronted me that day, and everyone heard it. The next thing I knew, the Lycans were already talking about it until it finally reached the Riegos'.”“How did Beatrix know?”“That, I can't tell, but surely, she dug through it. There's no way she’ll find out, out of random curiosity.”I took a deep breath and dried my tears before I carefully carried my daughter to her bed. She fell as
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 130
Schuyler's P. O. V.“You're lying…” I whispered in a low voice, almost not wanting anyone to hear me. “Ezekiel has nothing to do with my parents death!”“Has Ezekiel really managed to get a hold of you?” Beatrix laughed sarcastically. “Even his family knows who your parents' killer is.”“Don't say that, he has nothing to do with them!”“Oh, my dear niece!” My aunt shakes her head in disappointment. “Just how naive can you be? Beatrix is telling the truth. Ezekiel killed your parents!” As my lips trembled and I wanted to attack her for it, her smirk widened while watching my reaction. “Well, perhaps not directly? But it was him who did that to them.”My tears were at their peak when I heard a car pulling over and Beatrix stood up as they both looked from behind me the moment the door opened.“Damn it! That ride was freaking long!” Marisse's voice was too loud as she complained. “I wasn't even able to purchase more— What the hell are you two doing here?!”“Beatrix, what brought you here
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 129 - Part 2
Schuyler's P. O. V.“You okay?” I felt someone nudging my shoulder. A small smile escaped from my lips when I felt her leaning her head on me. “Do you have any idea how much risk I take just to save your ass?”I glanced at Ezekiel on the other table, he was playing with Stormi and Archer, who are only forcing him to go along with them. Even Archie had no choice but to join as well. While Hunter was standing at the corner, smirking while watching them suffer.“I'm sorry…” I genuinely said in a low voice. “It has been a real pain in the ass to all of you, huh?”Hannah clicked her tongue, “I’d be lying if I say you were never, but honestly, Schuyler…. I’d never been prouder to you after hearing everything you did to save your daughter and keep her safe.”My gaze averted on Stormi as I heard her laughing while running away from Ezekiel. She was so bubbly, and she looked really happy.“When I found out that Ezekiel couldn't remember anything, I knew right then that you did the right thing,
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 129 - Part 1
Schuyler's P. O. V.“Done?” Ezekiel's eyes analyzed our daughter's looks before he stared at me. He was leaning at the hood of his car, crossing his arms over his chest, and waiting for us to approach him.“Mall!” Stormi almost screamed in excitement while jumping at the stairs before she ran to her dad. “Carry me, daddy!”Ezekiel's eyes bored into hers before a smirk escaped on his lips. He crouched down to carry her in his arms and they both waited for me to reach them.“Mommy,” Stormi stretched out her hand, as if she's reaching for me so I quickly walked towards her. “Hurry, please!”I chuckled as I showered her cheeks with kisses while cupping them. Stormi laughed loudly before she buried her face to Ezekiel's neck, hugging him tighter. And when I glanced at Ezekiel, I found him still looking at me. Slowly, my smile disappeared before I avoided my eyes on him.I went to the back door of his car and opened it, only to see the child seat already settled in the middle of the car. He
