The Runaway Husband

In the dark underworld of power and influence, Evelyn Grey reigns supreme. Known as a nightmare, Evelyn's wrath can obliterate lives in the blink of an eye. At 26, she is the epitome of ruthless success, owning numerous gas stations and hotels, and wielding control over the illegal underbelly of society. 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.

Hazel

After Evelyn left last night, I laid on my bed thinking about her. The way she touched me, I felt butterflies in my stomach.

The way she pulled me, the way she kissed, the way she touched me it all made me feel new. I want more. I want her to touch me. I blushed and dossed off.

I woke up the next morning with a huge bang on the door. I growled.

"Wake up sleepy head wake up." Shouted Claire on the top of her lungs.

I covered my ears with the pillow but didn't helped much. "Shut up" i shout but it didn't bothered her.

She shook my body like a rag doll. Finally giving up I sat up and laid my head on the head board.

She was holding a huge box in her hand and few other boxes lay on the floor.

"Its not my birthday" i frown. I want to sleep. I looked at the watch it reads 8:00.

"OMG! Its 8 only. How dare you wake me up." I seethed pulling the duvet on me again. No way i am getting up so soon. Not on this planet at least.

"Evelyn sent you these." She said and i am out of my dreamland. I smiled from ear to ear and looked at the boxes.

"Why?" I asked jumping off the bed looking around. May be she was here but nope. Claire and I were alone.

I want her here..

"She will pick you up at 10" she informed. "And open this." She said handing me a box. I did.

 Beige Suit . With black formal shoes.

She pushed me in the bathroom. I freshened up and decided to take a long bath. The whole time i was interrupted by Claire but i ignored. I woke up early. I deserve this.

I walked out, the clock reads 9:30. I spent next 30 mins drying my hairs and moisturizing my body. I was still wrapped in towel when Dad barged again in my room

"Why the hell are you still in towel?" he was fuming. I ignored. I will take my time.

"Get dressed" he said. I pulled out my black biker jacket with v neck black T-shirt and black knee cut jeans.

"What the hell are you doing?" he asked me fuming. Claire entered too I was bothered now. Why the hell are they is concerned its between me and Evelyn and i am not going on date when mom is not here. I am not drooling over her . Dad left my room 

"Get out" i shout. Claire still standing there dumb fold. Her mouth open. May be she was bothered by my audacity I grabbed her hand and pushed her out.

I immediately dressed up. I have exam next week and Tom is going to help me with it. I have decided to continue my studies

I walked out. I got My phone back it was in dinning room, i forgot it there last night and was too lazy to go downstairs after meal. My phone was ringing already when i reached dinning room. Tom.

"Hello." I greet to Tom 

"Are we still up for studies?" he asked.

"Sure" i replied looking at my Dad. Dad was standing on the door, his hands crossed on his chest.

I walked past him and grabbed my black sneakers.

"Do you want me to come over?" Asked Tom .

"No" i replied leaning on the wall putting on my shoes. My phone held between my ear and shoulder. "Lets meet in a cafe. I have been grounded for too long."

"Pick up one and send me location." he said and hang up. I turn to dinning room to see Evelyn.

"Evelyn" I whispered more to myself. She was not smiling. She didn't feel safe.

I looked at my phone, time -10:50 AM

Oh ! No
