His Tempting Obsession Chapter 35
Schuyler's P. O. V.Ezekiel didn't allow me the opportunity to look further at that book, he carried me back to our bedroom and tucked me on the bed like some fragile and sick person!I admit, that hurt for a moment there, but I'm all good now! I don't like how Ezekiel chose to treat me, but somehow, I'm enjoying that he has his whole attention on me right now.Huh… Since when did my heart start beating this much? Last time I knew, I only adored my husband, but now… I shrugged off that thought. No way I would go beyond those feelings, not especially to the man who I only married for each other's personal benefits.'Why do I sound defensive to myself?' I asked in my mind while watching Ezekiel damp the ice pack on my knees.He was right. They're swelling already. Although my body is used to working up a lot and not minding the whole pain like this, I still can't prevent bruises and wounds from appearing on my body whenever I am being careless.I sighed and just watched Ezekiel do that u
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 36
Schuyler's P. O. V.When we arrived at the party, people's eyes were on so that I felt conscious of my look. No one informed me first hand that we're going to an event like this and it was too late for me to react further after hearing it from Ezekiel, especially after what I just witnessed!Ezekiel was greeted by many, but he never stopped to greet anyone and no one also dared to ask him who I was despite the obvious curiosity in their eyes.From afar, I saw Alana and her family hanging around with their own circle. I got nervous for a moment so I stopped walking and face Ezekiel who glanced at me. "I-I need to use the restroom, please?" I asked him.Ezekiel furrowed a brow slightly before he calmly nodded at me. "Want me to go with you?"My cheeks burned because of his question and the sudden thoughts in my mind. For a moment, I saw him smirking lightly at me before his face changed back to being emotionless again."I-I can manage," I let go of his arm before turning my back on him
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 37
Schuyler's P. O. V.Hunter looked deeply to me before he faced Marisse again, "Do something about this, I'll distract him.""Why me?" Hunter just left without looking back and Marisse snapped her eyes on me. "If not for our protection, I won't f*cking help you out!"Marisse tried to hold me, but I stepped away from her. "Then, don't do anything. I don't need your help, anyway!""You really think you can come out here on your own? People here are of high status and you're just a wh*re that my cousin brought home with him—"She was stopped from speaking when I harshly slapped her face. It takes the attention of everyone around us because of what I did and I quickly heard them whispering to each other until it gained the others attention."I know my place, Marisse." I gritted my teeth and spoke again in a low voice. "You don't have to f*cking say it, repeatedly, as if it will change anything. But you know what?" I walked towards her and whispered in her ear. "This wh*re is your cousin's
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 38
Schuyler's P. O. V."Baby, don't play dumb with me." Ezekiel looked deep in my eyes. "You know what will happen if I get pissed.""Ezekiel, I don't know what you're saying." I furrowed my brows. "It's you who's at fault here, not me. So, don't divert the topic and be honest with me!" He didn't speak, as if he was trying to figure out something by carefully looking at me. "When you force me to marry you, I clearly know that you're not just anybody."I saw him clenching his jaw before he nodded slowly, but still remained silent."You have a gun that night.. You hold it as if it was a part of you, like it was just a simple thing and not something that could kill me back then." I looked up in the sky while trying to find the right words to say to him at this point. "You have men, all with knowledge to kill anyone. You have Hunter to carry around and don't just do what a mere right hand would do. And above that.." I looked back at him. "You have enemies wanting to kill me for being connect
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 39
Schuyler's P. O. V.A mafia.My husband is not only a mafia boss, but rather he rules them. Me? A completely unknown person has managed to enter this kind of life and I don't even have any idea how fate has decided to cross our paths! Ever since the day that Ezekiel confessed to me about his real identity, he locked me inside this bedroom and wouldn't let me out. He would come from time to time, or would have Anne to stay with me inside whenever he's gone, but today was different after we broke into a fight last night and just like the past few days, I didn't talk to him again after demanding to just leave me alone.I know and I was never ignorant with the fact that his family had been saying a lot of things about me again. The maids can hear them and whenever I am pretending to be asleep as they clean and take away the foods I didn't touch, I often hear them talking sh*ts about me and how I lacked as the hostess of this house that even my husband's family aren't satisfied.What are t
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 40
Schuyler's P. O. V.I knew that agreeing to come here was a mistake. I shouldn't have ever come here, but if Ezekiel wanted me in this place, all I can do is just do what he says. 'Isn't he always the one in charge of everything?' I sarcastically asked myself.Hunter glanced at me from the driver's seat as he slowly parked the car and people were staring right at us. I saw when the familiar bodyguards of Ezekiel surrounded the car and pushed away everyone on the way as Hunter finally stopped. I looked outside the window and saw nothing unusual at all.Well, except the fact that we're in the freaking mountain and in the middle of a forest! What has gotten into Ezekiel to have such a place in this kind of area?!"You're probably wondering, right?" Hunter suddenly asked, but I didn't look at him. "The Riego's are known for living an extravagant life, almost the same with the nobilities or even better than that, but something like this exists in a secluded place?" Hunter laughed at his o
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 41
Schuyler's P. O. V.When I woke up, I was already home and Anne was preparing a meal for me at the table on the balcony. She was so busy that she didn't notice me so I carefully stood up before going out of the room. Anne knew nothing when I locked the door from outside. It's strange actually. There was completely no one around. The maids that used to scatter here are out of sight, but that's not a problem to me. I was glad, actually. They can't fool me anymore. If the last time it happened, they managed to play me, not anymore. I shouldn't have trusted Ezekiel! H-He… He's a monster. I saw a maid carrying a tray of juice so I quickly ran to the side and hid from her sight. When she silently walked past me, I covered my face in fear before leaning on the wall. I took a deep breath as I decided to go now, but my feet froze on the floor as I came face to face with all of them.Ezekiel, his family, and even Hunter were there and watching me with mixed emotions in their faces. For the fi

Schuyler's P. O. V."What do you mean, doc?" I followed the doctor when he stood beside my parents bed. "What happened last night?"He glanced at me with a confused look. "Your husband requested for your parents to be transferred to a different hospital, Mrs. Riego. Aren't you aware of that?"I looked at him with complete worry in my eyes, "W-Which hospital?"Is Ezekiel removing his financial support now that we're close to breaking apart? I would understand him, but he should've let me know first so I can prepare!"That.." He trailed. "I'm not sure yet. He said he's waiting first, before he would let us know." He looked at me with worry. "I don't mean to intrude in your life, Schuyler, but I've known you for some time now and I've been looking after your parents too. So, will you be honest with me… Did you only marry Ezekiel Riego for the sake of your financial need?""W-What?"He sighed and closed his chart before facing me with a serious face, "I've known that you're a good child,

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

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
