MY INSOLENT HUSBAND

"There is an island ahead! " A military man removed his binoculars as he announced to the blonde haired woman standing at the watch tower far away from the ship that was sailing. 

The heavy sea wind blew harshly on them, making the ship bent side ways and all the goods with it. The lady held her cap as she slowly walked down the tower. She walked towards him, her clothes flapping in the wind, the sea water sprinkling on their clothes.

"Let me see," She took the binoculars from him and checked it out and truly there was an island surrounded by clouds far away from them.

"Finally, I've found the mystery island," She beamed with joy. "Tell tue captain to sail North! Hurry! We aren't far from our destination!" She added staring ahead.

Amelia Blaze an executive from the British colony was sent by the government to check out an island that rarely appears after every 6 years. It was rumoured that the island was ruled by werewolves and other mythical creatures, but…there were only rumors if they aren't confirmed.

The 22 year old woman stood in ye middle of the sea, as she waited for her pending adventure.

"It's going to be fun here," She smiled, revealing a set of dimples.

Hours later, the lady and her assistant stood at the mouth of the island, as they watch amusedly at how beautiful the island was.

"I am going to make a great harvest from here, let's set a camp here and tour round the forest at sun rise tomorrow," She announced to the crews who took out some equipment for camping.

They rested under the moon with howls of creatures heared form afar. Amelia entered her camp and sent a letter to the secretary informing her that their journey was a success but they were still yet to check the island.

"Okay, I'll send your report," A man replied and hung up the call. She sighed and took out a jotter writing some things down on it.

Meanwhile, hidden In the forest from where they were, a blue glowed eyes stared at their movements growling silently. The men guard the camo chatting and drinking oblivious to the fact that there was a predator at their watch.

The creature growled and disappeared from there towards the woods, its paws left a deep print behind in the form of a wolf and seconds later a howl rang out in the forest.

The men continued with their chats not knowing the impending danger ahead.

The next day, Amelia with her crew and assistant went deeper into the forest as they checked out it's texture if it was good for a construction site or not. 

"Wendy what do you think about this place?" Amalia asked the blonde haired girl beside her.

"Mm…it's not bad, it's just that I find this place too creepy, I mean there haven't been any sign of animals yet. Which is strange for a vast and scary forest like this." Wendy said with a deep frown on her face.

"I thought the same way as you did. But I think maybe they might have a rule here, you know the jungle rule. The king only tell he subjects to do something once," Amelia replied frowining.

"Which means we are being followed by something dangerous. Something with great power in this jungle," One of the men gluped nervously as he looked around frantically.

"Geez, calm down it's not like you stole something from them that they will just attack you. Just chill okay?" His teammates laughed at how scared he was and they made jest out of him.

"Whatever," He grumble and focused ahead. Amelia cut down the thick plants before her as they continue marching forward.

Few minutes later, they all felt like they are being watched. They could feel the piercing gaze from the 'things'. They ignored it at first but as time goes on it became more unbearable like if they turn at any point or stop they willbe attacked from all sides.

"Keep your cool guys, don't look suspicious to the creature. If we don't move I don't think they wil-" Her voice dropped low 26° as she stared at the blued eyed being that appeared out of nowhere.

The creature raised it claws and slashed it at her…no… at the person beside her!

She tried pushing her away but the claw was already a breath to her face, she watched helplessly as it came right at her.

Is this how they are going to die?

Slash!

She shut her eyes not daring to witness the bloody scene before her but all she could hear was a gasp followed by a thud. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a body in the pool of blood.

It wasn't a feminine figure but a man's body! Amelia felt her leg loose weight as she recognized who the person was.

Everything that happened, happened so fast like a movie. She slowly raised her head and caught a great view of the creature before her.

A small-housed size mountain wolf stood before her with its hair as dark as night. Its blue eyes shone in the dark forest as they stare back at her. Feeling pressurized, her voice lost sound as she stood there dazed out.

The werewolf slowly approaches her and stood infornt of her not moving or attacking. It growled slightly at her and sent a death glare at the person beside her.

Her brain was in a mess and her mind was in chaos, she felt like an ant before the wolf. Her mind displayed all that transpired few seconds ago.

She tried moving her lips but they were too heavy to move. She could only stand there dumbly.

"You people came to the forest at the wrong time," A voice rang in through her head as her consciousness fade away.

Only the sound of her name being called was heard. The words of the werewolf rang in her head like thunder repeating itself again and again and again.

"Uh!" She slowly opened her eyes and all what she can see was iron bars that runs In a weird pattern. She stood up abruptly but hisse as she felt the sharp pain on her joints. She looked down and saw that she was bounded by sharp metals like chains that rang along the wall.

"Where am I?! Who is out there?! Get me out of here!" She screamed at the top of her lungs but only silence greeted her. She tried getting out of the iron bar but there was no way out, there wasn't even an entrance.

She slumped weakly on the floor as the incident that happened earlier displayed In her mind. She felt like all the things that happened was a dream, she just wished it all to be a dream.

"What Is this place? Why did that werewolf attack us? Where am I?" She asked herself multiple times and wasn't able to find an answer.

She stayed there in the dark iron-barred room for God know how many days. She slowly felt her sanity loosing as she gave up on resisting the punishment from the unknown person she offended.

"I just hope the others are safe, I hope they aren't suffering like I am," She sighed weakly as she hoped for someone to open the door but to her disappointment another day passed.

On the last day she felt like she was going to die. The door opened and a young handsome walked up to her with a cold expression. He looked so arrogant and young but she wasn't concerned about him more like what he was doing here.

She saw his weird attires and got a hint that he might be a local of where she was trapped in.

'Maybe he is the errand boy sent to provide food for me. Or check up on if I am still alive,' She thought coming up with different scenarios.

'if he is truly the errand boy, then I can black mail him to send me and my people put of here.'

Gritting her teeth, she stood up weakly as she stared aggressively at the young man.

"Young man, what is your name?" She questioned as she stood on guard.

"Why do a prisoner of low worth dare ask of my name?" He questioned, a trace of displeasure appeared on his face.

Amelia chuckled slightly, watching the arrogant man before her,"You sounds like you are from royality,"

The man frowned in return on hearing that, she can see for his expression that he doesn't like her attitude.

"You can't speak that way to me, woman!" He cursed silently.

"You are only a chicken poop if you can't take me out of here. Don't you dare open your fart mouth and speak that way to me again!" She threw insult at him provocatively.

She was waiting for an insult or frown from him but all she saw was  a face with an amused smile.

'Did this guy loose a screw?'
