His Tempting Obsession Chapter 10
Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V.Since Ezekiel had somewhere else to go, I was dragged by Hunter back to the mansion. I'm not sure if I should be worried or not, even despite the fact that he left his men to look after my parents and even have the whole floor just for them.Still, I trust no one from them.Hunter was strictly instructed to keep his eyes on me while my husband is gone to attend to something important and urgent.Honestly, I don't like Hunter since the night I first met him. He's just too annoying and harsh on me in every way he can. And surely, if not for the fact that I am married to Ezekiel, he would've wanted to end me if he can.I was grunting with his hold when he decided to drag me out of the car."I can walk, Hunter!" I hissed at him, but his face remained emotionless. "Ugh!""Hunter?" We both stopped at the living room when we heard a woman's voice."You, again.." Hunter exclaimed, still showing no expression at all.I rolled my eyes and eyed the woman back. She do
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 11
Schuyler's P. O. V.I held tightly on Ezekiel's hand when he opened the door and a woman's hand quickly came flying across in front of me. I flinched and tried to cover myself, but Ezekiel was quick enough to catch her hand."Ezekiel!" She shouted with so much anger for him.When I had a clear look at her face, I immediately noticed the small resemblance that she has to my husband. I wasn't the st*pid to not know that she might be Ezekiel's mother."How dare you bring that woman here!" She shouted and even tried to get to me, but my husband quickly pulled her away from me. "Let go of me! Have you not learned anything?""Stop it, mom!" Ezekiel hissed and let go of her before he pulled me to his side. "Show some respect. You'll be meeting my wife for the first time and you want to greet her this way?""Wife, huh?" She smirked and glanced at me before she faced him back. "Have you lost your mind?!"I wanted to cover my ears for how loud she screamed at us, but that'll look insulting for
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 12
Schuyler's P. O. V."All the tests came back normal. Except that I am requiring you to rest more and drink the vitamins your body is begging to have." The doctor looked me straight in the eyes. "And please, eat much more than you do, Mrs. Riego. Sleep whenever you have the chance and do a lot of exercise."I looked down at the vitamins he handed to me. And a bottle of sleeping pills if necessary to take."At your condition right now, I'm afraid you might one day have a hard time conceiving. And we don't want that, right?"My eyes were in shock when I looked up to him. "What?""What do you mean, Mrs. Riego?" He creased his forehead while looking at me. "You're married now to a wealthy and successful man. Surely, he'll one day look for an heir who will carry his bloodline and continue his hard work, don't you think?"I suddenly remember the reason for this marriage on Ezekiel's side. The doctor was right, Ezekiel is expecting a child. And that's my duty as his wife. How can I forget abo
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 13
Schuyler's P. O. V."Ah, 'Risse.." I called when I saw her in the living room and receiving a massage from the maids.She furrowed her brows at me. "What?""I was wondering if you would want to join me to lunch—""Save it!" She asked the maids to stop before she stood up and went in front of me. I'm already disgusted with the fact that I have to join you every breakfast and dinner time, and now you're asking me to also join you for lunch? Ha!" She sarcastically laughed while looking at me. "Don't you have any sense of disgust in yourself, Schuyler?"I lowered my head for what she said when I suddenly felt her grabbing my hair to meet her eyes."Why? Does it hurt?" She asked when I flinched at her touch. "You'll get a lot more of that if you don't stop lurking around my cousin, you got it?""W-What do you mean?""I mean, go and divorce him now!" She snapped at me and pushed me to the corner. "I really don't understand what Zeke saw in you. I mean, you're not even from a noble family or
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 14
Schuyler's P. O. V.I know that I should be happy because neither my husband's mother nor his cousin are no longer living with us since that night, but I couldn't help feeling guilty.Ezekiel, I might not know him much, but I could tell that he's a family oriented kind of man. He values and treasures them despite looking like a cruel and cold person, because if not, then, he would've pushed them away the moment they came here unannounced."Are you leaving?" I asked him when we bump into each other while walking in the hallway.Lately, he has been going out most of the time and would always come back only when I'm either sleeping or when I'm also out to visit my parents. I think I could already consider myself lucky seeing him here right now.He nodded at me before he walked straight to the staircase. I turned around to watch him do it and when he disappeared from my sight, I held the urge to follow him, but failed to do so.I quickly ran after my husband and found him almost near the
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 15
Savannah's P. O. V.Under a deep sleep, I felt when someone moved beside me so I unwillingly woke up and quietly roamed my eyes around.In front of the closed veranda, Ezekiel was already standing there while talking to someone over the phone. His voice was too low and I could barely hear him despite the deafening silence around us.I quietly sat down on the bed, thinking that he doesn't know that I am awake now. But then, he turned around and our eyes locked to each other. He said something more to someone he was talking to before he dropped the call and went back to bed.I brushed my eyes a little as Ezekiel sat in front of me."Did I wake you up?" He said in a low voice.I stopped moving when he reached out to tuck my hair behind my ear and I was left staring at him."Was it for work?" I asked as he continued to caress my hair. Ezekiel stopped what he was doing before he looked back at me and released a deep sigh. He doesn't seem to want to answer my question."The call, was it fo
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 16
Schuyler's P. O. V."Hunter.." I walked towards him after spotting him making his way to Ezekiel's office. He stopped and waited for me to approach him. "Can I ask you something?"Hunter gave me a calculating look before he slowly nodded. "Anything."I smiled at him, "You're my husband's right hand.""Is that fact not to your liking, Mrs. Riego?" Hunter suddenly asked before I could even finish asking him. His eyes were sporting danger, as if he could end me in a snap if he wouldn't be pleased with my answer to his question.I tried to hide the uneasiness that I suddenly felt with him. Hunter's face never changed, he still looked mercilessly."That's not what I mean.. I was merely wondering why you're here and my husband is not? Aren't you supposed to be always with him?" I couldn't tell where I got the courage to act normal in front of him when all I want now is to disappear from his sight.How is it that Hunter looks cruel to me now, but his boss was the one who managed to put me in
His Tempting Obsession Chapter 17
Schuyler's P. O. V.The moon was exceptionally beautiful tonight. I couldn't help, but keep on praising it. Or is it because I was merely trying to divert my mind with the fact that I am meeting my husband's father for the first time tonight and I feel so fr*making me nervous right now.I released a deep sigh and wandered around even more. Anytime now, he'll be back home and we'll have to dine together. His wife left me here to fetch Marisse somewhere, not caring if I'll be all alone here with the maids. They all feel weird, honestly. They watch me everytime they have the chance, as if I am someone they should always be wary of.It was a good thing that they decided to leave me after some time and I had the chance to go to this backyard.There's a huge barn on the left side and a tree on the right. Although I feel curious what's inside the barn, I don't think I am allowed to go in there, so instead, I went to the tree, but the moment I did, I saw a track around it, something I didn't

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

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
