Chapter 2.

Deep in the middle of an unknown rain forest is a secret camp, and in that camp, Zach is currently cleaning his weapon.

'It's been a long past few years. Not only did I run away from my family but I was saved and taken in by an old man. He was very kind to me.'

I became depressed as I thought more about the old man that took me in and raised me before I left to join the military.

"Captain! There is a video message for you in the main tent." One of my subordinates called to me knocking me out of my sad and depressing thoughts.

It was strange ever since I have been in the service and ever since the old man died nobody has ever video called me. Wll besides the hire ups but that was only for another mission.

I put my AR-15 heavily modified, down that I was cleaning put my cover on and then left my tent.

A few moments later I walked inside the main tent. Monitors and televisions lined the wall as soldiers video chatted with their loved ones and children, happily.

My spot was at the farthest corner of the tent, all alone.

As I walked over to the monitor and I was surprised to see who was on the screen calling me.

"Grandfather-in-law what a surprise... How did you find me." I asked to my wifes grandfather.

Yes you heard right about three years ago with the old mans dying wish and calling in a favor I was wedded off to someone I never met. I was his dying wish so how could I refuse.

The family that he maried me off to was wealthy and i mean very wealthy. Which put me in a predicament. It would be to awkwad and annoying to deal with her family complaining and treating me like shit since I was a commoner. Truthfully I also didnt want to be treated like a dog by her family.

"Hoho did you think that I never didnt know where my grandon-in-law was. I just didnt bother you however..."

His expression became dark and tense and I insticntively knew that he called me about something major. It was either conscerning his grandaughter Eve, my wife or him personally.

"What's wrong grandfather." I asked.

He looked at me with a stern expresion.

"Evie's parents are trying to force her to get a divorce."

'What' I stood their speechless for who knows how long.

All I could think of was how absurd and idiotic Eve's parents were. Though she was already married they were still trying to sell her off to another man who could bring a lot of money to their family.

I wont sugar coat it I am not the best husband, if I could even be called that. However I still did very much care about my wife, the woman I maried.

She was someone that I always kept tabs on and was always up to date on what she was doing or who was causing her harm.

I stopped a lot of assault and assasination attempts on ehr throughtout our married life.

"Why do they continue to meddle in things that dont conscern them." I said with a hiss.

"As much as I want to be angered it is mostly my fault for raising my son with a golden spoon. He is greedy and wants more than he should have." My grandfather-in-law said with a sorrow filled expression.

A million different things were going throgh my head at that moment, would Eve divorce me, wpuld she follow her parents will, what was she thinking.

All of that was making me loose focus on my current mission so I hastly said.

"I have a lot of leave days saved up, I will be back soon."

Before I knew it I was bording a plane back home.
