Schuyler's P. O. V.Ever since I started wondering about Ezekiel's job, I slowly noticed how he was trying to avoid letting me know what his real job was. At some point, I felt really offended by what he was trying to do, but then, I realized that maybe he wasn't just willing to let me know about everything yet.. Or I'm really not deserving to know a single detail about his job?"Mrs. Riego, we're here," Hunter called me after parking the car in front of a restaurant.I glanced outside and saw Georgi standing there while holding a paper bag. He was looking around him, probably searching for me in the crowds.I opened the door and was about to go out when Hunter spoke to me."Should I come with you?" He suddenly asked, and when I turned to face him, I found him glancing at Georgi too. "Do whatever your boss says, Hunter." I blatantly said before getting out.I didn't look behind me or check if he followed and just went straight to Georgi. His face brightened after seeing me."Hey!" He

Schuyler's P. O. V.Ezekiel looked away from me and I had to sigh deeply before slightly pushing him away. He didn't do anything and just let me get away from him.I picked up the paper bag I brought with me. Coming here was a mistake. I shouldn't have run to him after what happened. Why did I even do that?I could feel my tears forming in my eyes when Ezekiel was about to face me and I immediately turned around so he could not see me."I-I'll go back to your house now," I bit my lip after saying that.How foolish of me to think that Ezekiel is someone I can run to and bring comfort to me. I was wrong! He only wanted me for himself just so he could have an heir. That's probably the reason why he was mad at Georgi. Of course, we have a contract and he clearly wouldn't want to care for someone's child.I went to the door without looking back at him and after I got out of the room, I saw Hunter there, standing and just waiting for us. My face darkened after seeing him, but Hunter doesn't

Schuyler’s P. O. V. I couldn’t tell exactly how I was feeling at the moment, but when Ezekiel still didn’t move an inch, I started to worry for myself. Ezekiel looked deeply into my eyes as if he was challenging me to show him something, but even if I didn’t want to, I had no choice but to look away from him again and close my eyes. “I said drop your gun!” The man shouted again, anger and desperation were evident in his voice. “I’ll really kill this b*tch!” A small whimper escaped my lips and my tears quickly formed in my eyes, but I knew that I had to act tough in front of this man. I can’t just satisfy him by showing how scared I am of him. The sun was slowly disappearing from the sky and the stars were starting to show up. I felt when this man looked up in the night sky after the darkness slowly engulfed us and just as I was about to do the same, I saw Ezekiel move and in the blink of an eye, he was already in front of us and had managed to push the man away from me. I ran in t

Schuyler’s P. O. V.“Your… mate?” I carefully asked before stepping away from him. I shook my head and took a deep breath. “Ezekiel, how can you expect me to ask you when you’re always busy working, while Hunter is often around and I can drug anywhere I want when he’s not busy?”Ezekiel glared at me and it made me confused for a moment, but I just ignored that.“W-Well, since you’re here already... Can you, ahm..” I cleared my throat before looking away from him, feeling my cheeks heating up. “Can you drive me to the hospital? I really want to visit my parents.”We looked into each other’s eyes before he slowly nodded to me in a calm way, “Get in the car now. I’ll just get something from my office.”“Okay..” I nodded at Ezekiel and waited for him to leave, but he only remained standing in front of me. “I-I’ll go now.”I turned my back on him before leaving the house. The car was already outside and Hunter was standing there, he opened the door the moment he saw me walking towards the

Schuyler's P. O. V."Did someone come to you?" Ezekiel asked me the moment I entered the room.I closed the door behind me and leaned onto it with a weak smile on my face. Ezekiel was standing just beside my parents while facing me.I took a deep breath before standing well in front of him. I shook my head and walked towards him, even glancing at my parents. I only looked back to Ezekiel when I saw a smirk formed in his lips."You think I hurt them, don't you?" He laughed and I stopped in front of him. Ezekiel caressed my face before making me look up at him. "Oh, little kitten.. Is this a taste of truth that my wife doesn't trust me at all?""I-It's not that, Ezekiel.." I held his hand and tried my best to not tear up and cry in front of him again. "Can I spend the night here?"Ezekiel darted his eyes on me, he was too serious after hearing me and he didn't want to break our gaze, even after we heard his phone ringing and I know that he's responsible for calling him again."You shoul
