The hidden panel slid open with a soft click.Alan reached inside and pulled out a compact assault rifle, two pistols, spare magazines, combat knife, and a satellite phone—all sealed in vacuum-packed plastic. He tore them open efficiently, his hands moving fluidly.Hazel watched from the doorway, her breath shallow."You installed a weapons cache. On our honeymoon island.""I install them everywhere." He checked the rifle's chamber without looking up. "Old habit.""That's not normal, Alan.""Neither is a rocket launcher through the breakfast window." He handed her one of the pistols. "Do you know how to use this?"She stared at it, "Vaguely.""Safety's here. Point, squeeze, don't hesitate." He met her eyes. "Can you do that?"Hazel swallowed and nodded.The man who clipped the spare magazines to his belt and checked the knife's edge was not the same man who had cooked her breakfast twenty minutes ago. The warmth was still there, buried somewhere deep, but everything else had shifted.

“Did I wake you?” She came back to her senses just in time to hear his question.She couldn’t decipher his question for a moment, “Huh? No, the sun did,” she drew closer to his side to see what he was cooking, “Didn’t know you could cook,” she confessed when she saw his cooking skills. She could have mistaken him for a chef if she didn’t know him before.“I usually spend time with the cooks back home, I might not be that good, but I can cook some simple dishes”Hazel raised a brow in amusement, ‘if these are simple dishes, then I am only capable of cooking water’With what she could see, it was like Alan was preparing a full course meal for her.“Tell me how it tastes”, he raised a spoon for her to taste. When she did, an explosion of flavors enveloped her tongue, albeit hot. She nodded in satisfaction.“It’s great. If I knew you were such a great cook, I would have married you earlier”Alan smiled and focused on the meal he was preparing.“I felt like doubling the dowry, but I though

Melodic sounds echoed out of the church as the program began. The priest was standing in front of the altar, with Alan.A gentle rustle of excitement swept through the crowd as the bride, resplendent in her ivory gown, entered the hall. Her father, beaming with pride, offered his arm, and together they walked down the aisle.As they approached the altar, the wedding party stood up: the best man - Pietro, the maid of honor, and groomsmen. The officiant, a warm smile on his face, welcomed everyone.The officiant began, “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union of Hazel and Alan in marriage.”Alan and Hazel exchanged tender glances as the officiant spoke of love, commitment, and the journey ahead in marriage.* At the end of the street, a man in black vest jogged to the black vans. After talking a bit with the scarred man in the first van, the scarred man smiled and gave an order to the driver beside him. The vans rumbled to life and they soon left.* “Hazel Hade

In the Silver Lace International Airport, two figures in military green vest and khaki trousers ran with duffel bags, almost creating chaos as they rushed to get out of the airport and get a taxi as soon as possible.* The St. Seamus Cathedral was the oldest cathedral in the city and it was said that it was built by one of the founding fathers from the Walker family.When the crowd outside the cathedral saw the black limosine adorned with a family crest, they immediately recognized it to be the arrival of important members of the Walker Family. They went into an uproar.“Walker Family. It’s the Walker Family!” someone screamed with excitement.“Is the Hades Family close to the Walker family?”“Don’t you know? Alan Walker must have some connection with the Walker Family, it is in the name!”“I already heard rumors that Arthur Walker seemed to be quite close to Alan Walker and that Alan Walker had created Gold Aries as part of the ‘Dragon Race’”“How cool!”“I can’t even feel jealous a

Two days to the wedding of Hazel Hades and Alan Walker. The city of Silver Lace was in a festive mood. Not only was Gold Aries running a discount for their clients and patrons, even the Hades family were doing the same.People that didn't care about the lives of the rich and wealthy began to join in the excitement going on. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of such discounts?!Hazel cleared most of her schedule ahead of the wedding, allowing herself to focus on the process.But it was two days to the wedding, yet, Alan was nowhere to be found.Hazel stared at the magazine Clara had given her to preview. There were many holiday resorts they could pick for the honeymoon. Her eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep and she yawned every couple of minutes, tired and drowsy.Seeing Hazel staring absentmindedly, Clara asked casually, “Have you been worrying about the wedding?”Hazel snapped back to reality, sending a sad smile towards Clara.“It's just that the wedding is in two days and he

Chabert and the other officials were still packing up to return to their jobs when a soldier ran into the meeting room.“Sir!” The panic on his face was mixed with excitement. He was holding a satellite phone, “It's headquarters, they said Warlord is on the line.”The name caused the entire room to freeze. Even the aides from the Defense Ministry froze in shock and surprise. A spark of hope erupted within their hearts as they all stared at the satellite phone in the soldier's grip.Warlord was a name synonymous with ruthless efficiency. An undefeated commando on the field, capable of making enemy forces run in terror when he enters the battlefield. His military merits were enough to put him at the forefront for at least two promotions.General Chabert managed to remain calm, he collected the satellite phone, “Chabert”“It is good to hear your voice, General”…Bobbing up and down on a calm river was a flotation device, Alan laid on the device, staring at the sky, with a satellite phon
