Chapter 7
Through Noman, Aman was informed that some people had attacked Haad and his colleagues in the forest. Aman told this to Sanan. He knew that it was the Sea Red Gang. The Sea Red Gang had been active in Gilgit-Baltistan for a long time who plundered the wealth of the people. The gang members would kill anyone without fear. And they kept changing their location, so the police failed to catch them. Sanan had now taken this responsibility to catch them. He had caught two of them. They had only mentioned one of their hideouts while the Sea Red Gang had several hideouts. He could not attack them until all their whereabouts were known. Now, Sanan had asked Noman to keep an eye on Haad from afar. He wanted to check Haad’s strategy. If Haad had made a mistake, Noman could have helped him.
“How was Haad’s performance?” When Aman came to Sanan’s office to report on the success of Haad, he asked.
“Haad’s strategy was the best. His plan not only rescued his hostages but also forced all the enemies to bend to their knees …” Aman told Sanan the whole thing.
“He divided the enemy into two groups and killed them. Good.” Sanan said admirably.
“Noman has brought a member of the group with him. Haad and his comrades killed the others but they were not the whole gang. They were a part of the gang. In that case, Haad is in danger. “Aman said seriously.
“Then it’s time to meet Haad,” Sanan said thoughtfully.
“Try that person to tell you about the gang,” Sanan ordered.
“Okay, sir.” Aman nodded.

Nasir brought Haad to the clinic before going home. By then, his wounds had mostly healed. The doctor didn’t even need to have stitches. He was simply bandaged with ointment. He either didn’t need it, but he didn’t want to make anyone suspicious. He came home and, as usual, went to Anna’s room first. Today he had locked Anna’s room. Yesterday he allowed her to go all over the house and then saw the result. Many other places in this palace were terrible. It was better for Anna to stay in one room. He opened the door and looked inside. Anna got up from the bed in panic and was looking at him in fear. He was shocked to see the strange expression on her face.
“What happened? Are you all right?” He came closer to her.
“Yeah …. I’m fine,” she said, looking around.
“But I don’t think so.” Haad looked at her intently. Anna could not answer.
“What’s the matter? Tell me?” Haad asked softly.
“I was so scared.” She cried.
“Why?” Haad raised his eyebrows.
“Someone came here.” She said nervously.
“What? Who came?” Haad was surprised.
“I don’t know. He was a boy. He was outside the door of my room.” Haad was very angry when he heard Anna’s words.
“Did he say anything to you?” Haad asked.
“Yes. He was asking about me.”
“And you told him?” Haad stared at her.
“Yeah … no. I told him a little bit.” Haad took a deep breath.
“I was very scared. I prayed that you would come but you didn’t.” Anna complained. Haad’s heart was filled with joy. He stared at her in amazement. Anna was embarrassed when she realized what she had said.
“Sorry. It won’t happen again. Take the fear out of your heart and relax.” Haad reassured her and left.
“And what do I do with the fear of you ?” She muttered.

The name of the master of Zolun was Karan. He had many powers. Many witches were his slaves, including Zolun. He was also Karan’s student but Karan had not taught him so much about the magic that he could fight him. His fear was right. Zolun wanted to take his place. He wanted to kill him and rule over the witches in his possession. But it was not possible to do so without killing him. And it wasn’t easy to kill him. He was not the one who could die so easily. Many of his magical powers protected him all time. He could only be killed when those powers were gone. He used Zaria to eliminate these forces. Zaria had to be fed a special medicine mixed with alcohol, which would paralyze his body. If Karan had been a little careless, Zaria could have given him this medicine and even his magical powers could not do anything at that time. Zaria didn’t get a chance last night but today she intended to kill Karan. It was not difficult for her to distract Karan. When her beauty and alcohol began to erode Karan’s senses, Zaria handed him a glass of wine in which she had already mixed the medicine. She lovingly looked at Karan and put the glass on his lips. Karan could not refuse and drank heavily. After a few moments, he felt his body freeze. The tongue could not move. Zaria smiled with mystery and he realized that a big game had been played with him. And when Zolun appeared in the room, he knew that the game was being played by Zolun. As soon as he got paralyzed, Zolun easily reached his room. Because his magic was no longer working. Karan’s brain was also becoming paralyzed. Zolun cut his neck with a knife and made him sleep forever.

Haad didn’t go to work today. He was making lunch. While Anna was walking by the pool. The floor was wet from one place. While walking there, Anna’s foot slipped and she fell into the pool screaming lightly. When the water entered her mouth and nose, she was afraid of death. She was trying to save herself. But the water was very deep and she was far from the edge of the pool. She was about to drown when she saw Haad entering the Corridor. Her heart got peace. She was satisfied that Haad would save her. When Haad’s eyes fell on her, his heart got frightened.
“Anna!” He hurried forward and jumped into the pool, grabbed Anna’s arm, and pulled her towards him. He put his arm around Anna’s waist and raised her face above the water. She had lost consciousness due to suffocation. Her breathing was very slow. Haad quickly pulled her out and pressed his hand to her chest. Water gushed out of her mouth. She regained consciousness and started coughing. Haad took a deep breath and sat down beside her, trying to control his anger. Anna sat up in fear.
“Who told you to jump in the water?” He turned his face towards her and shouted angrily. Anna started crying in shock.
“Speak,” he was asking, holding her shoulder in a stern tone.
“I didn’t jump myself. I fell by mistake,” she replied in a low voice.
“Why did you go near the pool?” Haad asked in a strict voice.
“I’m already scared. You’re scaring me more,” she said in a weeping tone. Haad realized his mistake. He quickly controlled his anger.
“Okay sorry. Don’t cry. I was scared to see you in trouble.” He came closer and hugged her. Anna was surrounded by strange feelings.
“You’re so precious to me. If something happens to you, I won’t be able to survive either. Take care of yourself.” Haad was explaining his feelings to her lovingly but Anna got an idea in her mind. If anything happens to her, Haad will not be able to survive. In this way, her mother would be saved from death. Instead of feeling his love, she began to think of harming herself and saving her mother. Because her mother was in danger due to her. If she dies then all the problems will be finished. She thought and intended to kill herself.
Haad, unaware of her thoughts, was looking at her with affection when the main door was knocked. Haad stood up in surprise. Anna looked at him confusedly.
“Come into the room and change your clothes,” he said, glancing at her beautiful face. Anna also got up and came into the room with him. Haad came out of the room and locked the door.
........................
The doorbell was still ringing continuously. Haad wore a long coat over wet clothes and came to the front door wondering who could come here. This place was in the middle of the forest. Maybe a passenger is passing by. But did he climb the gate and come in? Then he could be the same person who came in his absence yesterday. Thinking this, he opened the door and was shocked to see the person in front of him. He was the one who shot him and when he fought the tiger. he was watching him observably. Haad’s sixth sense was saying that this man would soon find out his secret.
“Who are you?” Haad asked in a slightly harsh tone and Sanan smiled.
“I’m your guest. Won’t you ask me to come in?” Sanan asked calmly and he hesitated.
“Come in,” he said, stepping aside from the door. If he hadn’t let him in, he probably would have been in doubt.
“The house is nice. Like a royal palace. Do you live alone?” Sanan stepped inside, looked around.
“Yes,” he said, not sounding like he was lying. Sanan shook his head. Haad brought him to the lounge and asked him to sit on the sofa.
“Sit down. I’ll get you something to drink,” Haad said respectfully. He was very hospitable and Sanan’s personality was so influential and impressive that he could not take a hard line for him.
“Oh. No need. You sit here. I have something to talk to you about.” Sanan said so he sat down on the sofa in front of him and wondered what he was going to talk about. He looked at Sanan with waitingly
“Will you befriend me?” Sanan said with a charming smile on his face. Haad looked at him in surprise.
“That’s what you’re here to say?” Haad asked. Sanan laughed at his question.
“There’s a lot to say. But if we become friends first, it will be easier to talk.” Sanan replied.
“But I don’t become friends with anyone,” Haad said without looking at him.
“You befriended Nasir,” Sanan complained. Haad was shocked.
“How do you know?” He looked at him suspiciously.
“I know a lot more about you,” Sanan said.
“Wh … what?” Haad stammered.
“That you were imprisoned in a cave by a witcher in your childhood…” He was joking seriously when Haad interrupted him.
“Did Nasir tell you that?” He asked angrily.
“No. He didn’t tell me. He’s your good friend. Don’t doubt him.”
“Then do you have magic?” He asked sarcastically.
“more than magic.” Sanan shrugged.
“So you know a lot more about me?” Had wanted to know if he knew the secret of his being Werewolf or not.
“Yeah. There’s someone else in the house with you, and she’s a girl,” Sanan said. Haad was confused when his lie was caught.
“She is … my wife.” He spoke, controlling himself. Sanan felt that Haad was very uncomfortable. Maybe there was something he was afraid to reveal.
“But you have just been released from the witcher's captivity. When did you get married? Can only one of these things be true or are both lies?” Sanan said and he became angry.
“This is my personal matter. Who are you to intrude into my life?” Haad said in a stern tone.
“Okay sorry, cool down. By the way, my name is Sanan. I am the ruler of this area. You have surprised and impressed me by fighting a tiger. I like brave men very much. That is why I offered you friendship ۔ Sanan said in an impressed tone.
“Get my refusal,” Haad said calmly.
“Think about it. It’s to your advantage.”
“What’s the advantage?”
“Yesterday you killed many people from a gang in the forest. It was not a whole gang but a small part of that gang. When the rest of the gang finds out about the deaths of their comrades, they will reach you very soon.” Sanan was telling him while Haad was wondering how he knew everything.
“So I want to protect you and your wife. It would be better if you both left this place and shifted to another place for a few days. We are about to reach this gang. Until their last person is caught, You and your wife could be in danger. “Sanan told him details.
“I’m not afraid of anyone and I can protect my wife very well,” Haad said.
“Okay. But you guys can be provided with bodyguards if you want.” Sanan made an offer.
“I said no, I can protect myself and my wife,” he said emphatically.
“Okay, let’s see.” Sanan stood up.
“Did you come here yesterday?” Haad also stood up and asked suddenly.
“Hmm.” Sanan himself did not come but Noman came on his orders.
“If you come here next time or try to spy on me, you would not be alive,” haad said in a dangerous tone. Sanan gave her a smug smile and left. Haad’s eyes followed him till he was visible.

Zaria had finally reached her home after many difficulties. Anna was not there. She knew that Haad had taken Anna with him. And he was in his forest palace. But at that time she could not go there. One whole day she walked home and was tired. And secondly, she had no magic left. She could not easily go to Haad’s house or face him. If she had gone in front of Haad, Haad would not have taken long to kill her. She could do nothing to save herself because she was now an ordinary woman and Haad a werewolf. To compete with him, Zaria first had to regain her magical powers. For this, she had to go to her old teacher. Zaria did not know where he was at that time. But she could do anything to find him because he was the only one who could get her magical powers back.
