With a pretty face that hides a demonic fury, Evelyn is a force to be reckoned with, leaving devastation in her wake whenever angered. Contrasting sharply with Evelyn’s menacing presence is Hazel, a 17-year-old boy whose beauty is matched only by his purity and kindness. With hazel eyes and an innocent demeanor, Hazel embodies everything good and gentle in the world. Recently graduated from high school, he is eager to embark on a new chapter of his life at university, embodying the dreams and aspirations of youth. Their worlds collide in an unexpected twist of fate, where power meets innocence, and darkness clashes with light. As Evelyn's shadow looms over Hazel's life, will his purity be tainted by her darkness, or will his kindness illuminate a path to redemption for the both of them? "The Runaway Husband" explores the delicate balance between love and power, and the unexpected ways in which two seemingly opposite souls can influence each other's lives.

Breaking the Rules

Hazel

It's not like college is All bad, there are somewhat good bits about it as well I guess .

I've made new friends at least, that's a plus .one good thing about college is that nobody cares who you were before because essentially, collage is like a fresh start and that's kinda nice to know when you're shy person in secondary. People who I wouldn't dream of ever becoming friends with are suddenly my best mates . 

As I enter cafeteria I saw my group they were discussing something. I waved at them and asked "what's up"

Stephanie- Hazel we are planning to go the movie after college, would you like to join ? 

As I was free today i said yes. We decided to meet at tom's house at evening then we'll go together from there . 

 After college I went to home I was feeling tired so I took nap and as i woke up after one hour I rushed at tom's house And texted dad

Hazel :Dad I'm going out for movie with my friends , I'll be back in two hours. 

Dad : Okay , come home before seven 

As I reached his house he was on calling with someone , I tip toed to him.

This time I will scare him, hahaha...

I was just going to "Boo" him...and he turned around And cut the call .

"You are so late." Complained Tom .

"Sorry I fell asleep." I apologized.

"Come on. Lets get ready. We have to leave." He ushered me in a room. 

"Leave where? Aren't we supposed to wait for our group ?" I asked.

"The plan has changed, They are not coming and We are going to the Royal's club." He said

handing me a beautiful navy blue shirt.

"No I can't. You know rules. I'm not allowed to go to the clubs ." I

handed him the shirt back.

"Hazel , you are a big boy now. Don't be a baby. No one will know." Tom convinced me.

It took him about 30 min to convince me. I never lied to my parents. It was like He brain-washed my mind. "Okay. But we will be back in 2 hours." I said.

I glance around the club. It was a posh club. I am sure it would cost a fortune. I felt uneasy. Tom offered me a glass of water After drinking water 

I looked around again. Few women were drinking,

dance floor was full, flooded with all the rich people. But my eyes rested on a highly tinted glass wall. It felt like someone was staring at me.

"Tom, I don't think this is a good idea. I want to leave, please." I requested politely.

Tom hold my hand and pulled me forward.

I hissed in pain, his sharp ring cut my skin. Few drops of blood fell on the ground.

I saw Tom turning pale. He started shivering and looked at the highly tinted glass wall.

I was turning to leave when I felt a hand on my back. "'Hey cutie ." A women Spoke. 

"You are hurt, let me help you." She started cleaning my blood.

I smiled at her generosity. She was raised properly.

looked around and Tom was no-where to be seen. 

The lady saw me looking for him.

"Your friend is on the first floor." She said.

I thanked her and walked towards the door. I want to leave. I don't like in here.

"Sir your friend asked you to join upstairs. Please follow me." A waiter came rushing to me.

"Please Tell him I am leaving." I said politely .

My eyes again land on the glass wall. It felt weird. It sent chills down my spine and not in good way.

I walked out wrapping my arms around my body . I shouldn't have come here tonight. I started to walking down to the street as I was walking I felt some one is following I look back , streets were full of people but no one in particular was looking at me. suddenly I started to feel dizzy. I tried to walking faster . I walked in an alleyway It was dark and empty

I felt someone's presence behind me. I take out my phone to call dad I felt being suddenly lifted from the ground I was harshly thrown on the wall.

Before I can process anything, In just blink of an eye, my hands were harshly pulled above my head. I

was pinned on the wall. And a hand on my mouth.

I opened my eyes slowly.

A woman stood in front of me. She was tall, muscular and strong. She wore a mask I tried to break free but nothing helped but she tighten her grip around me.

I tried looked in her eyes. It immediately sent the shivers down my spine. I froze. Soon I fell more dizziness consuming me , She removed her hand from my mouth and I black out . Last words I heard was "it won't hurt. I'll Just marking you, my love"
