Schuyler's P. O. V.

"What?" I turned my back on Ezekiel. "I said it already."

I didn't hear him say anything else, but I can still feel Ezekiel's eyes on me and stabbing me from my back. I sighed before I turned around to face him again.

"Ezekiel, I never signed up to be the 'Lycan Queen', just because you are their King and we're married." I pointed at the door. "I don't even know how to treat them!"

"You can treat them normally, Schuyler." He raised his brow on me. "They're don't have much difference with humans—"

"Oh, of course, you all are different from us!" I quickly cut her off. "Ezekiel, you… You transform or shift—Whatever you call the process is, you can be a Lycan anytime you want. And I'm merely a human! Do you really think that all the Lycans out there are going to respect and accept me as their Queen?" I shake my head at him. "No, they won't.."

"What made you think so?" Ezekiel asked in a calm voice.

"Oh, please!" I washed my hands in my face. "Ezekiel, it's too obvious.

    Schuyler's P. O. V."I didn't do anything, Hunter." My eyes sharpened while looking at him. "Why the hell are you pinning it on me?"Even after we got on the event, all dressed up and with lycans waiting for us outside, Hunter wouldn't stop his questions. I looked outside of the car and watched as everyone surrounded us with their faces and looking at the car we're in.If not for the heavily tinted windows, they'd probably see through the horror in my face with the fact that I am freaking inside of the lycans den. "Don't worry." I heard Hunter say it in a serious tone. "The car's lycan proof."I sarcastically laughed, "Nice try, Hunter, but I'll pass in believing your lies. I've done some research, and I know that lycans strength is the same as a strongest machine."I saw him smirking while sitting in the front seat, "That's true, but… Why do you think our products are of top qualities?" I frowned at him."I don't even know any of Ezekiel's business other than the underground."Hunge

    Schuyler's P. O. V.The lycans from above were howling after Ezekiel introduced me to everyone. The looks in their eyes were screaming danger as I looked at each of them, but no one dared to question Ezekiel's decision. Still, I'm certain that not most of them are loyal to him. Maybe, they're one those who are plotting against him for marrying me, a mere human in their eyes.As Ezekiel pulled me to sit in front of them, I saw Marisse giving me a meaningful look before she turned her back on us and left the room. I faced Ezekiel and touched his wrist."I-I need to use the restroom." I stood up from sitting again.Ezekiel narrowed his eyes on me before he slowly nodded and let me go. I turned my back on him before I carefully walked away. I thought for a moment there that he wouldn't let me go.As I left the room, I saw Marisse talking to someone, an old man and he only stopped when he spotted me coming towards them. I heard him respectfully excusing himself and he only walked past me.

    Schuyler's P. O. V.As I walked back towards Ezekiel, I could feel the eyes of everyone around me. And just when I'm almost near him, I felt something bump in my legs and silence filled the room after some women gasped.I stopped and slowly looked down at my legs. There was a stain from a chocolate cake in my dress with a hand print of a little kid who's sitting on the floor right now and looking up at me with tearful eyes.I wanted to wipe my dress first and look more presentable in everyone's eyes, but I can't just ignore the child in front of me. The innocence in her eyes held me captive as I slowly kneel in front of her with a gentle look on my face."Hey, there.." I whispered to her before tucking her hair behind her ear. "I'm sorry, I didn't see you. Would you mind if I help you to get up?"I offered my hand to her, but she only looked at me with fear in her eyes. From behind her, I saw when Ezekiel started walking towards our direction. I helped the kid up just the same time a

    Schuyler's P. O. V.Ezekiel licked his lower lip and my eyes were locked there for a moment before he slowly smirked at me. His eyes were twinkling with excitement and interest in them. As if I just said something he's expecting but looks stupid in his mind.I grimaced at him before looking away. Just by the menacing look in his eyes, I can already tell that he's never planning to help them in the first place and he only wants to hear my opinion. But what should I do? I can't just sit here and do nothing, but how can I do something when I know that I should be careful with my actions and no lycans here would side me.I felt when Ezekiel reached for my hand under the table. I glanced back at him and found how serious his face now looks."Want to go there?" He said in a low voice.Hunter looked surprised with his question, but it slowly disappeared after he averted his eyes on me. He took a step back to give us privacy and I focused my eyes on Ezekiel when I felt him squeezing my hand.

    Schuyler's P. O. V."Are we going out?" I carefully asked Ezekiel while looking outside of the car's window. "I don't think we should—"My words were cut off as I heard a door opening and just as I turned my gaze to look at his side, Ezekiel closed the door behind him. I was about to ask Hunter when he quickly exited the car too and followed behind Ezekiel.They stopped in front of the car and were staring at something from below the bridge. As curiosity hit me, I slowly opened the door to follow them outside.Hunter took a step back as he distanced himself after seeing me approaching them. I stood beside Ezekiel and watched him with a dangerous look in his eyes. He looked so serious as he probably thought of something while looking somewhere. I slowly followed what he was looking at and I gasped loudly as I saw some lycans from below and in the middle of a field near a small lake, they were dragging unconscious people to the side by holding them in their feet.By the looks of it, it

    Schuyler's P. O. V.Worry was visible in my face as I glanced at the window's reflection behind Ezekiel. I saw him clench his jaw before he took my phone and ended the call just before I could even take it back from him. "Ezekiel!" I growled at him before I tried to take my phone back.Ezekiel held both of my hands using only his right hand before he hid my phone in his pocket and faced me with a hard look in his eyes. I sighed before I leaned back to my seat while crossing my arms in my chest. I glanced out of the window and was not facing Ezekiel at all when I asked him."Alana… Where is she?" I seriously asked.Ezekiel didn't answer me, but I can feel his sharp stares piercing through me. I snapped at him with a glare."Answer me, Ezekiel! Where's Alana?" I saw him avoiding his gazes on me."You still care about the bitch, huh?" He scoffed. "Didn't he try to kill you?""You weren't there when she dragged me with her cousin. So, you probably don't know where she is now, right?" I g

    Schuyler's P. O. V."Ezekiel." I held him by his wrist just as he was about to approach them. I shake my head at him after he averted his attention on me. "Just.. Let them go already." I pleadingly said. "It's not like they can do anything—Besides, you have their daughter, right? And even if you won't tell me if she's already dead or whatever you did to her, it won't be worth it if you will pay them more time for a mere threat, right?"Mere threat, Schuyler? What am I even saying? Knowing their family, they won't take me and my parents lightly, but I just don't want to add more fuel to the fire."Not worth it, you say?" Ezekiel asked with no emotion in his face. "Mere or not, it's a threat, Schuyler. Look around us," he motioned his head to the side. "Killers are everywhere. Mere or a serious one, a threat will always be meaningful in these people." He clenched his jaw and avoided his eyes on me. "And no one should ever dare threaten my wife under my watch."Ezekiel continues walking

    Schuyler's P. O. V.A week after that, I received an unknown call at midnight. I took my phone from the bedside table before glancing at Ezekiel. He's still in deep sleep and he just looks so adorable for me to watch, but I had to answer the damn call before my husband woke up.While covering my naked body with a comforter, I answered the call."Who's this?" "What's with the voice? You sound sick." She laughed sarcastically. "Nah, more like you got laid tonight. Is your husband that good in bed?"I arched my brows as I heard a familiar voice, but I couldn't process who she was after hearing her words. Was it too obvious? I can feel my cheeks burning as I tightened the hold of the comforter."I don't have time for—""Easy there, Sky! We barely contacted each other." I heard her pouting her lips. "Can't you spend some time with me?"Sky?My eyes widened at the realization!"Damn! Irina?" I swear, I can tell that my eyes are widening in shock right now! "How the hell did you have my num

    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

    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

    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

    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,

    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
