His Tempting Obsession Chapter 56
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
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 57
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
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 58
Schuyler's P. O. V."You live here?" Irina asked in awe as the car approached the entrance door. I glanced at her and saw her gaping while looking everywhere around us. Her eyes were twinkling with excitement before she glanced at me."Seriously? This is a freaking palace, Sky!" She exclaimed while smiling brightly at me. "You should've told me sooner so I could prepare a gift for your husband!"I frowned at her after hearing what she said, "A what now?"She laughed playfully, "Just kidding! But seriously, who is Ezekiel Riego and how the hell is he so rich?"I thinned my lips before smiling at her, "He's a… businessman."I wonder how Ezekiel would react if he heard my answer. A small smile appeared in my lips before the car stopped and Hunter opened the door for me.What's he doing here? I thought he had a job to do today. Nevermind! I exited the car and waited for Irina to come out. She raised her brow at Hunter who showed no emotion to her before she went to my side."Tour me arou

Schuyler's P. O. V."Who would've thought that they'll still end up together even after believing that they're twins?" Irina laughed drunkenly and was even slapping her seat. "That was hilarious!"I grimaced while watching her continue to drink even if it was obvious that she can't deal with it anymore. I leaned back on the chair and sighed as the movie ended and we were surrounded by darkness."Should we go for another shot?" Irina asked and I saw when she raised the bottle.I grimaced at her as she tried to stand up, but failed while laughing hard. "Hey, Sky?" She called before hiccuping."Yeah?" I slowly sat down and faced her."Do you think… life would be better if I, like you, leave our town?" Irina slowly laid back while looking up at the ceiling.I couldn't answer her question, because honestly, I don't even have a better life even after leaving the town I grew up in. But Irina, not knowing anything, of course, we'll believe that I had a better life, considering that I also ma
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 60
Schuyler's P. O. V.I couldn't explain why I hate to see Ezekiel today and every time he would show up around me, my hatred would just intensify. Irina had already left even before I woke up and I didn't get the chance to even bid her goodbye. Ezekiel didn't wake me up as well!I was watching the view from outside the car and noticed that we're in the city. It's not far from the mansion, but I feel like it took us forever to get here. And with the fact that there was a deafening silence in the car for the whole ride.Hunter was the first one who got out of the car, leaving me with Ezekiel. I glanced around us and noticed that we stopped in front of a huge and well guarded building. The parking space for the people is wider than the road, but from the entrance, only few people can get in after showing their access card to the guards who would analyze it.I've never been to this place, but my pride is overwhelming that I did not dare to ask Ezekiel. I felt when a hand caressed my thigh
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 61
Schuyler's P. O. V."Come here," after Ezekiel attended a meeting that made me wait here in his office, he came in and went straight to his table. I glanced at the papers in front of the table before I did as he says. "What?"He motioned the chair beside him, "Sit."I slowly sat down and pulled the chair beside him. Ezekiel placed the papers in front of me and I looked at him with a blank face."Seriously?" I asked with sarcasm in my voice."It's time you face these works," he said in a serious tone."You'll make me work?" I shrugged my shoulders. "Thought you'll be more of—'I'm the man, I provide'---kind of husband."I saw when Ezekiel clenched his jaw, but he remained calm and only opened the paper for me to see what the contents were about."If you worry about working your ass 'til sunrise like how you used to do before, there's no need for that." He looked deep into my eyes.It took a moment of silence as we looked into each other's eyes. I had to be the one to break it and take
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 62
Schuyler's P. O. V.After a tiring day with Ezekiel constantly commanding me to read a bunch of papers, we were on our way out when Hunter suddenly received a call and had to have Ezekiel in the conference room, again! I groaned before sitting back on the couch and was reading through the account details again when I felt my phone vibrating.It was a call from Irina. I gaze at the door, but after realizing that Ezekiel won't be back sooner, I answer the call to pass my time."Hey, Sky! Didn't have the time to say goodbye to you earlier, my damn boss is making me work a lot these days!" She snapped in anger. "Damn him!"A soundful smirk grazed my lips, "You have money, why still work a lot?"She groaned in an annoyed way, "How can't I? I have nothing to do when I'm home, anyway." I heard him sighing and I almost relate to her for just laying down back at home. "And besides, since I met your husband, I wanted to be like him—You know, being wealthy and powerful—Girl, he looked so damn co
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 63
Schuyler's P. O. V."What took you so long?!" Irina snapped at me, but she still looked so gentle and maybe even a little tipsy."Sorry, I got into something on my way here." I frowned at the memory of that brunette woman and her threats.Everyone's eyes are on me, some are shocked to see me joining them, while the rest are confused and probably trying to figure out who I am."A friend, Irina?" Someone from our side asked her.Irina laughed before shaking her head, "Shut up! Can't you, guys, recognize her?"Hannah, who's behind Irina, stood up and approached us."Didn't know you'll be here tonight, Sky!" Hannah said as she embraced me tightly while whispering to me. "I'm hoping that your husband's aware this time that you went out to join us?"I bit my lower lip before sheepishly smiling at her when we distanced ourselves from each other, "He'll know.."She raised her brow at me before shaking her head. "When did you become a good girl?"I laughed a little before facing everyone. "Hel

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
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 131
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
