His Tempting Obsession Chapter 72
Ezekiel Riego's P. O. V.More than a week ago and my men have reported to me that our products kept on getting stolen. I had to rush out of the country after the argument I had with my wife. I kept on clenching my jaw when I remembered the fear in her eyes after I lashed out on her.I never intended to do that, but I have to make her listen to me and do everything I ask her. ‘For a while, she must…’I was in the middle of interrogating these motherfucking assholes and torturing them when I received a call from Hunter. With my hands covered in blood, I picked up the phone, thinking that Schuyler must have demanded something again.For a while, it excites me to hear her complaints again, but what Hunter told me was unexpected. I never wanted to believe it at first, so I rushed back home while in the middle of doing a business.I knew that if I left here, these assholes would be able to escape with the help of their organizations, but the thought of Schuyler getting violent with my mothe

Schuyler's P. O. V.“Need something, Sky?” I heard Hannah's voice coming towards me. “Hungry?”I nodded at her before sitting down on the chair. Hannah brought out something from the fridge before putting it inside the microwave. I looked up at the clock in the ceiling before asking her.“Is Ezekiel's back?” Hannah stopped from whatever she's doing before she slowly glanced at me.She doesn't have to say anything, just by the way she eyed me, I already know the answer. My parents just… died. And my husband, who's the only person connected to me right now, is nowhere to be found. He would let me see him and neither even answer my calls whenever I try to reach him.I feel so alone right now. Irina told me that the day after my parents were buried, Ezekiel and I had a fight—But I did most of it. And the worst thing, I don't even remember what we fought about and none of them would let me know as they don't want to interfere.I understand, at first, but now that Ezekiel's distancing himse
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 74
Schuyler's P. O. V.After seeing the doctor, Ember and I were on our way to visit my parents' graves when we stopped in front of a restaurant because of the traffic. I was casually looking everywhere and trying to kill the busy time when my eyes spotted a familiar car.My forehead creased as I saw Ezekiel's car parked at a restaurant and as if luck was on my side, I saw him coming out while holding a paper bag and beside him was a familiar face of a woman I once saw. I just couldn't tell where I saw her before, but the way she clung to my husband who's not even minding her and how they're attracting attention is what I can't take.Everyone who would see them together will definitely say that they look perfect for each other. As if they're some kind of arts, carved with passion and love for one another.And Ezekiel… Is this what he's been doing every time he’s away? Is he only coming to see me to check if I am already pregnant with his child?! He doesn't really care about me, but he w

Schuyler's P. O. V.“Does she live here?” I asked when it was just me and Hunter, alone in the kitchen. Hunter glanced at me as he poured me a coffee in my cup. “Was planning too.” Hunter pushed the cup in front of me. “Tell me, how did you do it?”I looked up to Hunter while sipping from my coffee. “Hmm?”“The maids… The lycans..” He trailed with an amused look in his eyes.“What about them?” I put down the cup of coffee.“Well, as you know, they're so loyal to Beatrix, but, then—Nevermind!” Hunter said and sat on the chair in front of me. “How have you been? I last saw you at the funeral.”“Oh..” I looked down on my cup and I started to pay with the edges of it. “I don't even know that you were there.”“Considering your situation, that was pretty normal.” Hunter shrugged his shoulders. “Have you been taking meds?”I shake my head at him, “I don't have that.” I looked into Hunter's eyes and he seemed to already have an idea what I would be asking next. “The Lycan King left just thi

Schuyler's P. O. V.“I’m glad you give it a chance, Mrs. Riego.” The Attorney said to me in a delighted tone. “It took me a while to find your location. I’m sorry for what happened to your parents.”“Cut the crap! Who are you?” I directly said and he was taken aback by me getting straightforward.“I am your great-grandfather's attorney, Attorney Tim McGraw.” I nodded at him. “Ten years ago, your great-grandfather passed away, and in his will, your name was written.”“My name?” He nodded at me, confirming that I heard him right the first time. “What for?”“His will—”“Yes, but what is will’s all about?!” I snapped at him. “And damn him! Why include me with the mess of his will when he never even once appeared in our lives?!”The Attorney thinned his lips, “I apologize, Mrs. Riego, but I can only answer the will’s related questions. That one is too personal and I don't have any idea about it.”“Tsh!” I clicked my tongue and leaned back on the wooden chair I’m sitting on. “Would you lik
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 77
Schuyler's P. O. V.As we entered the plane and it was about to leave the airport, at the corner of the driveway, I saw a familiar figurine and looked at me from a distance. It was Hunter. He nodded his head at me and watched me as the plane left, as if he was letting me know that it's okay and it was the best decision to do at that time. I don't know how he found out, but I knew, by the way he looked at me, he wouldn't say a word to Ezekiel or to anyone else.The hours of the flight felt so sickening for me. It was because of my pregnancy that I was often in the washroom and had to vomit. And when it was finally over and we landed in a foreign country, I started to feel worse.“I’ll be accompanying you for your first month here, Mrs. Riego.” Attorney Tim said with a gentle smile on his face. “For now, I think it's best for you to see a doctor first. You're looking pale and I’m not sure if it's normal.”I slowly shake my head at him. “No… No, doctors. T-They would know about my baby,

Schuyler's P. O. V.“Do you like nature, Ms. Savannah?” I heard Honey asking behind me as I stared at the huge trees in the mountain not far from where we're standing. “We can go there tomorrow, but I doubt if you can climb. You're a pregnant human with a lycan baby, after all.” I glanced at her while trying to think in my mind. “It would be dangerous for you.”“You're a halfbreed yourself,” I turned my body to face her and looked closely at her face. “And so do most of the people here.”“That is correct,” she nodded at me while smiling brightly, again.“How do you take it?” I sat back at the bench and continued to stare at the people below, dancing and having fun as the night struck. “How can everyone here be so damn happy when anytime, one can betray you and humans might experiment on everyone here? Worst… The Lycan King and his pack might find out and decide to kill everyone.”I imagined Ezekiel hating me for whatever reason, and that hatred became deeper than I can imagine and in
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 79
Schuyler's P. O. V.“Is there a problem?” Attorney Tim asked as I only stared at the papers in front of me. He has already explained everything to me about the process taking longer than expected, and while I should focus myself there, my mind would go and think of something else. “We can discuss the rest the next day if I see any progress. As for now, I only need you to sign more papers for the transferral of the properties.”“Can’t you rush it even more? I can't wait a month for all these!” I snapped at her and I saw when shock crossed his eyes.“I’m afraid that's the fastest I can get. These inheritance had been here for years, there are some changes that happened with the policies, but will have everything.” He calmly told me before releasing a deep sigh. “If you're worried about your relatives—”“I’m not worried about them doing anything to me,” but I am worried about them wanting to do something to my child.“Mrs. Riego..” He sighed when I didn't even look at him. “Schuyler…” He

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

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
