The answer

You made a mistake by leaving your family and marrying without a guardian, as the majority of scholars stipulate the presence of a guardian for the validity of the marriage.

You must repent and return to your family. If the husband does not divorce you unless you relinquish your right to the dowry, then do so, because you cannot marry anyone else until after his divorce or the annulment of the marriage and the completion of the waiting period.
