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 Savannah's P. O. V.I felt someone watching every step I make in the middle of the darkness. I can feel my heart slowly beating fast and my breathing was hitch in nervousness as I continued to make my way in the hospital entrance.I could already see the guards in front of the entrance when I heard footsteps from behind me, tears were building in my eyes as my imaginations started to scare me and my body started to feel cold.What if I get kidnapped here? I heard from the news that a lot of women are mysteriously getting kidnapped in the city and the people to blame are still unknown.'Maybe I should hurry up…' I told myself and another set of images crossed my mind. I imagined being pulled away just before I got to the hospital.So my adrenaline rush acted to where my body was comfortable. I ran fast just to reach the hospital and when the guard saw me, he gave me a familiar look and opened the door for me.I got inside while catching my breath and they eyed me with question

    Ezekiel Riego's P. O. V."Sir, their leader went inside the forest just now. Should I take care of him?"My eyes glistened with darkness as I heard what my assistant said over the ear piece. A cruel smirk made its way to my lips as I turned my car over and parked it in the middle of the road."Leave him to me." I got out of the car and looked up at the dark sky.The moon was shining beautifully dark tonight and all I was thinking is if the said Moon Goddess is watching me from above. How wonderful it would be for her to see me avenge my ancestors for her own failure in protecting them from these filthy and disgusting human beings, the same human race she has made us into protecting against the vampires and witches who are doing nothing but harm them in the darkness. Yet they found them amusing and heroic, while they hunt us down, their supposed protectors, only for a reason that we are monster looking and have a special blood to carry.Fear and greed. Their weakness and strength, but

    Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V.I was busy serving the drink that one of my customers purchased when one of my co-workers approached me. Her eyes looked bothered when she suddenly gripped my wrist and pulled me in the kitchen."Schuyler.."I looked around us and realized that the staff were gone. Where did everyone go? As soon as the door closed, the loud music of the bar speakers was minimized as well."I have a question for you.." I gaze back at her before I slowly nod."What is it?" My voice sounded casual and I think it gave her relief somehow.Something's really bothering her. I can tell that, especially while watching how nervous she looks right now."Do you still want to finish college? You know, to get a bachelor's degree?" Her tone sounded as if she's strolling, but at the same time, curious as well."I want my parents well more than anything."She slowly nodded at me before she sighed. "Well, what do you say about getting an extra job?" I raised my brow while waiting for her to

    Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V.People outside were screaming outside the room and I should start worrying because of that, but instead, I was standing here in the middle of this room, with a killer in front of me and watching me with those menacing cold eyes of his.I tried to step away from him, but the moment I did, I felt someone pull my hair and throw me on the wall. I felt my hands hit the wall and my own body, causing me to scratch my arms, and bruises quickly appeared in my skin."You, b*tch!" My eyes were filled with fear when I saw him raise his hand and was about to slap me.My defense instinct made me want to cover my face, but because of my aching arms, I couldn't move to protect myself.I closed my eyes and looked away from him, bracing myself for the impact, but instead, I heard another gunshot and the man's grip on me loosened as he screamed in pain.I slowly opened my eyes after I felt when someone lifted me up and helped me to stand still. I heard footsteps rushing ins

    Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V."Schuyler?" I quickly turned around when I heard someone calling me.I was ready to smile when I suddenly stopped myself and looked at her with no emotion visible in my face. Her smirk widened while eyeing from head to toe and I could already feel the next insults I'll hear from her mouth."You work here? I thought you'll go abroad and spend time after college." She suddenly gasped and acted worried in front of me. "My, I forgot. Do you even have funds to attend college?""Who's she, Alana?" We heard someone ask and when I turned around to look, it was a woman, probably a year older than us, walking towards our direction with a confused look on her face. "Please, don't tell me you're friends with this… Anyway, you're not, right?""Oh, please! How would I be close to someone who didn't even have the chance to submit an application for college?" Alana laughed and rolled her eyes. "Let me guess, you're in debt right now, yeah?"I balled my fist secretly while

  • His Tempting Obsession   Chapter 6

    Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V.Roaming my eyes around the president’s conference office, I hid my hands under the table as I felt them shaken in nervousness. The president was sitting across from me with a serious face as he scanned my parents' hospital bill. I didn’t know that things like this could be handled by a higher person like him. I thought it’d always be his employees who would do it, but our situation has probably reached his ears now and can no longer be handled by the accountants.“Miss Savannah,” he started and closed the report folder before placing it on the table. “You’re fully aware of your situation right now, right?”I was contemplating whether to remain silent and wait for him or nod my head in agreement, but I still ended up doing the latter. He nodded back in understanding before he stood up and faced the glass wall, he was watching the scenery outside.“I admire your affection for your parents, for the past years, you have proven how much you care for them.” I lo

    Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V.The fact that instead of crying and doing nothing, I have chosen to work and earn money is what slaps me that I have nothing against Ezekiel Riego. That man... I can’t believe that I’m really married to him. And I will have no choice, but to always deal with how cruel he is when he can’t get his way to what he wants to claim.I could call him a spoiled jerk for that, but that won’t suit him for his cruelty, right? For me, in this situation, he was more cruel than Alana. And I don’t think it’ll ever change soon.“Finish up this one, Schuyler!” Our boss called me and pointed at the table at his side.I silently nodded at him and went to that table after the other one. There are a lot of people coming today because of the festival, some are even foreign and have been giving us huge tips. Right now, every cent matters to me. Especially since I have a huge debt to pay tonight and no matter how impossible it might be for me to have that amount of money, I still

    Schuyler Savannah's P. O. V.The darkness and the cold temperature did not help to ease my tense mind and stop me from trembling in nervousness. I tried to look around me and see what was happening, but all I could see was nothing. I looked down on my hand as I continued to caress the eyefold that Hunter had given me when he picked me up and dropped me in this place. No words came from him, but I do know the obvious thing that I am required to wear this before Ezekiel arrives here.I was told to wait, but I don’t have any idea how long I should do that. I looked out through the veranda and saw how dark it was outside. I know that by now, the hospital has already received an order to let my parents stay there. I sighed deeply. As much as I wanted to call the hospital, I know that I can’t. Hunter took my phone with him, claiming that if I don’t cooperate, they’ll quickly send my parents away. I stood up from the coach and tried my best to make my way on the bed.I feel so tired alread

    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
