With iMessages, you can receive messages both on your phone number and on your Apple ID email - or if you have added other emails.


You can see which phone numbers and e-mails you can be contacted at here:

Settings Messages Send & Receive


Under "You can receive iMessages to and reply from" remove the checkmarks from your email address(es).


Alternatively, you can block the numbers from which you do not want to receive messages.
