She saw herself in a dark forest. Where there were dense trees and sunlight could not reach the earth. It was daytime but there was darkness in the forest. Dressed in a black gown, she seemed to be a part of this darkness. She did not know why she was there. In front of her was a palace. It was very beautiful. She wanted to go into it. She took a step forward and a sound hit her ears.

"I want you …," that was the gorgeous voice of a man. She looked around in surprise but there was no one.

"I want you," again repeated. Her heart pounded. Then her eyes opened. She was on her bed in her room and was having a dream. Now she was awake. She looked like a fairy tale Barbie because of her extraordinary beauty and pinkish color mixed with white. Her brown wavy hair was very long which was scattered on the pillow and bed and she was hidden in a blanket up to her chest. She blinked for a while and thought about that strange dream. That was the third time she had the same dream. She did not know why this happened.

"Who wants me?" She questioned herself. There was someone who wanted her. that was a man's voice. Did any man want her? She was confused. When she didn’t understand this dream she shook her head, stopped thinking about it and sat up looking at the clock. It was eleven fifty-five at night. She felt thirsty. She looked at the side table. The jug had run out of water. Now she had to fetch water from the kitchen. It was very cold. She got out of bed, put on her shoes, picked up the jug, and walked towards the door. The whole house was made of wood. It was a small house built on an icy mountain at the end of the Fairy Meadows area. It had two floors. Her room was on the second floor. She left the room and came down the stairs. She saw the lights in the dining hall were on. Maybe Mama forgot to turn off the light. She came to the dining hall to turn off the lights but was surprised. Mama was awake. She was decorating a cake by putting candles on it. She remembered that it was her eighteenth birthday at twelve o'clock. 

"Mama!" Her tone of speaking was beautiful. Zaria looked at her and smiled with pleasure.

"Hey, Anna! My daughter. Did you get up? I was about to wake you up. To wish you a birthday. Look, I made a cake for you." Zaria spoke enthusiastically.

"It looked pretty. Thank you." Anna thanked as she approached the cake

"Come here. It's about twelve o'clock. Let's celebrate your birthday together." Zaria spoke. Anna stepped forward and sat down on a chair.

"There are only ten seconds left. Until then, think of your wish. I will accept whatever you ask me." Zaria lit the candles and sat down on a chair near her. Anna closed her eyes and thought. A wish that she had wanted since childhood first came to her mind.

"It's twelve o'clock." she opened her eyes at Zaria's voice.

"Extinguish the candles," Zaria said and Anna blew out the candles. Zaria applauded.

"Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to my dear daughter. Happy birthday" Zaria sang and she smiled happily.

"This is your gift." Zaria handed her a necklace made of diamonds. It was very alluring.

"Oh wow. It's so beautiful." Anna beamed.

"So wear it now," Zaria said and she put this necklace around her neck.

"Make a wish Anna," Zaria touched her face.

"I want to visit Fairy Meadows." The whole valley of Fairy Meadows was visible from the window of her room. She loved a small lake that was on one side of the valley. She wanted to go to that lake. But Zaria never let her out of the house. Maybe she still would not let her go. Anna was looking at her, chewing her lips.

"Okay. You're allowed to go anywhere today." After a short pause, Zaria approved and Anna's face lit up with happiness.

"Really? Thank you so much. You're the best mama in the world." Anna hugged her and chattered. There was a mysterious smile on Zaria's face.

…………………….

Today was a full moon night. A caravan was passing through the forest in the moonlight. There were seven people in the caravan, all men. They had black clothes on their bodies. There were swords in their belts around their waists. They were all talking casually, laughing, and moving forward. Maybe they were friends. One of them was central to the group. He was everyone's favorite person. All the friends were preferring to talk to him. And that conversation was about him.

"Prince! As much as you run away from girls, I think you have to be a virgin all your life." One man said. He smiled while everyone else was laughing.

"Every beautiful girl In this area is your lover. I don't know why you didn't like any girl." The other joked sweetly.

"The girl who can conquer my heart has not yet been born," he said in a proud tone. That was the reality but he was unaware of it. That girl wasn't really born yet.

They had crossed half the forest. They came to the forest to hunt. They were too late due to running after a deer. After hunting it, they were now returning to their city, which was adjacent to the forest. Suddenly they heard someone growling.

"It's the sound of a wolf. Be careful." The prince drew his sword from its sheath. Everyone else followed his instructions and drew their swords. Then a wolf-like creature came out of the trees on the left and fell on them. He was bigger and stronger than a normal wolf. It had long teeth. There were big hairs on the body. Toenails were also large. He had killed two of the prince's companions in two blows. Seeing his friends dying, the prince stilled for a moment, then he angrily ran towards the wolf. By then he had killed another man. The prince stabbed the wolf in the neck with a sword. A slight scratch appeared on the back of its neck. It turned and attacked the prince with its claws. The prince retreated quickly, but the wolf's claw mark appeared on his arm. He felt pain in his body suddenly. He fell to the ground and his body began to move in a weird way. While the rest of the prince's companions attacked the wolf, it turned to them. The prince could not help them even though he wanted to and they were all killed by the wolf. The prince's eyes turned red with anger. The veins of the whole body emerged. Suddenly his body began to grow larger than its size. The teeth grew long. The hands and feet took the shape of the wolf's claws. Screams like wolf growls began to come out of his mouth. Soon he was in the shape of the wolf that had attacked him. He was standing some distance away from it. The prince snarled furiously to see it. They both were now face to face and ready to rush upon each other.

………………….

She was going outside today for the first time in her life. She did not know why Mama would not let her out of the house. she had asked Zaria but Zaria did not give her any answer. She was a very strict mother. Anna was never frank with her like normal children. Zaria taught her at home. Her hobbies were playing the piano, reading books, and painting. She could play every tune very easily. It was difficult to stay in one place for years but now she was used to it. All she wanted was to go to the little lake in the Fairy Meadows valley, which looked so beautiful from the window of her room. It was her childhood longing that was about to come true today. She was very happy.

After getting ready, she came downstairs and saw Zaria sitting in the lounge. She was reading a book, sitting on the couch with her head bowed.

"How do I look, Mama?" She approached Zaria and asked. Zaria raised her head and looked at her. Dressed in a black gown, she looked very cute. There was a strange gleam in Zaria's eyes.

"Very sweet." He said in an admiring tone and Anna smiled innocently.

"Mama, come with me." she requested. 

"I can't go today. I'm not feeling well." Zaria wanted her to go alone.

"Oh. I won't go then." Anna was worried about that.

"No, you go. It was your long-held wish that can only be fulfilled today." Zaria said, and she bowed at her command.

"Okay." Anna was a little nervous. She was going outside for the first time so she was afraid of getting lost. Zaria had refused to go. Now she had to go alone. She came out of the house strengthening her heart. She had seen this place many times through the entrance when Zaria was leaving or returning home. But she never went out the door. She came out today. There was a path in front of her around which there was only snow. The path led down a mountain and into a field of fairy meadows valley after alpine trees. There was a small population. And a short distance away was Anna's favorite lake she was going to see today. She took a slow step forward. She was very scared when she came down from the mountain. The road was steep slope. It seemed as if she were about to fall, but after a ten-minute slow-moving effort, she came down the mountain and took a deep breath. After a while, she passed through the alpine trees and then entered the valley of Fairy Meadows. The valley was as beautiful to see closely as it was from afar. She was joyfully watching every scene of the valley and the people there stopped to look at her. They thought she was a fairy descended from the moon, who had strayed into their territory. When Anna realized that everyone was staring at her, she became more confused and started moving faster. Some moments later, she saw the lake she was looking for. There was a beautiful smile on her face. She looked at the lake mesmerizingly and started walking towards it. As she approached the lake, she bent down and touched the water with her hand. Waves formed in the water.

"Beautiful" She cheered. Then she started playing with water. After a while, a butterfly came flying in front of her eyes.

"Butterfly!" She exclaimed with pleasure and stood up. The butterfly was flying to the right side. She started following the butterfly, wanting to touch it. The butterfly was not so high that Anna could not catch it but its flying speed was very fast. Anna increased her walking speed but in vain. Then she started running fast. She did not know when she entered the forest. All her attention was on the butterfly. The forest deepened. She had reached the dense trees. The forest was getting dark. As the darkness deepened, the butterfly suddenly rose and disappeared from her sight. Anna came to her senses and when she looked around, it was the same scene as in the dream. She was in the same dark forest. she looked around frightenedly and saw the house she had dreamed of. She wanted to go back but because of curiosity, she walked towards the house.

"I want you," she remembered that voice. She was waiting for that voice, but it didn't happen. She put her hand on the wooden door.  with a little push, it opened automatically. Anna began to see the inside scene holding her breath. It was an old-style house but very beautiful. There was a large courtyard in front and a tall building behind it. Anna thought it was a dream world. After pausing for a moment, she entered the house and started walking ahead. Sometime later, she was at the entrance of the building. The door was slightly open. She opened the door wholly and looked inside. She was stunned. It looked like an old royal palace. Its beauty had not yet diminished, perhaps someone still took care of the palace. Everything there was shining. It was a rectangular hall. There were chairs along the right and left walls and lots of beautiful pictures on the walls. All had natural scenery. Anna liked all the pictures. With the front wall, there was a stage on which a beautiful chair was lying. Maybe it was the king's seat. Just behind this chair was a picture of a wolf. She was scared for a moment but the picture was beautiful. She looked at this fascinatingly and came close to it. Seeing the wolf's gray eyes, Anna felt her head dizzy. She quickly looked away from it and then she saw a corridor on the left. There was a statue. Anna quickly approached it.  He was extending one hand and stood as if he was offering dance to a girl. His face was very charming. Like the prince of stories. His clothes were also of old times. Anna stared at him for some moments. Then she came closer to him. And put her hand on his outstretched hand as if she had accepted his dance offer. She wished that she could dance with him. She was just thinking that when a movement happened in Statue's body. She was badly startled. The statue was now in the form of a living human being. Anna's heart was trembling with fear. She wanted to step back but she felt the man's grip on her hand tighten. The next moment he pulled her towards him and put his arm around her waist. His gray eyes were watching Anna's face with interest while Anna screamed and fainted.

………………….

The initiative was taken by the prince. And the other wolf did not stay behind. The two jumped on each other at the same time. The prince slapped the wolf hard on the face. It jumped and fell away. it got up and walked towards the prince again. The prince bent himself and put his teeth on the wolf’s neck. Then a fierce battle broke out between them. The roar of wolves in the mysterious forest night made the atmosphere even more frightening. Sometimes one hit the other, sometimes the other struck the first. They were both strong rivals. Their powers were equal but the prince had power as well as intellect. He had defeated this wolf with his intelligence. At last, the wolf was lying on the ground covered in blood and the prince was standing next to it, looking at it with hatred.

…………………

When Anna opened her eyes, she was on the bed in her room. She did not remember the incident before she fainted. But she remembered that at midnight Mama had allowed her to go out. She got up happily and when she came out of the washroom after taking a shower, Zaria was in her room.

"Mama, do you remember that you allowed me to go out?" She asked excitedly. Zaria smiled cleverly.

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

"Yes. I remember. Eat first. Then you can go out." She said and Anna looked at the watch. It was twelve o'clock at noon

"How did I sleep so long?" She wondered.

"You were awakened late at night, so maybe."Zaria guessed.

"Sorry, Mama. I won't wake up late next time." She looked down and spoke innocently.

"Don't say sorry. Let's eat together." Zaria took her and went downstairs.

……………..

Tariq was passing through a forest of Fairy Meadows. He had a knife in his hand and sweat on his face. He killed someone and ran away. Now he had come to the forest to save his life, but he had forgotten that death can come everywhere. He was running fast and his breath was swollen. He stopped and took a deep breath. He was about to walk again when a wolf appeared in front of him. He was a little bigger than a normal wolf and looked beautiful despite being scary. Tariq's breathing stopped for a moment. he stepped back screaming and aimed the knife at the wolf. The wolf roared angrily at him and soon tore his body apart. The wolf was a werewolf who was very angry. He had no control over himself. Tariq's dead body was found soon by police. It didn't take them long to realize that he had been hunted by a wild animal. He was punished for what he did.

...................

Anna was playing with the water of the lake. She had just arrived there. She was happy to see small fish swimming in the lake. She was trying to catch a fish when she heard a strange sound on her right side. She was scared to see a wolf running towards her. Her whole body began to tremble. She couldn’t run away. Barely a scream came out of her lips. The wolf approached her and jumped on her. she fainted. Then he understood why this happened. In eagerness, He forgot that he was in wolf form. He just wanted to be close to her. Now he was upset to see her fainting. Anna was lying on the ground near the lake and he was wandering around her anxiously. Then he started rubbing his cheek with her cheeks. 

Sanan, who was driving on the road with his secretary and bodyguards, saw this scene and stopped the car with a jolt. He got out of the car carrying a pistol from the dashboard. The next moment, A bullet came out of his pistol and penetrated Haad's stomach. He thought the wolf could harm someone so he shot him. The wolf growled at him. Sanan fired another shot at his chest. He was seriously injured. His blood was flowing very fast. His power was waning. He fainted soon and Sanan's guards moved towards him while Sanan moved towards Anna and became mesmerized. That beautiful little girl became dear to his heart. He lifted her in his arms and took her to the hospital.

…………………….

Sanan was a member of the National Assembly and a political leader in that area. In addition to politics, he had his own business and owned a large fortune. His father had died some time ago. He was now fulfilling his responsibilities. But he was attached to business instead of politics. He was carrying out the responsibility of politics because it was his father's order. He knew his son was very fair. He could have been a good ruler. Sanan was 24 years old. He was a brave and dignified man. One of his hobbies was pet keeping. He had lions, tigers, and bears in his farmhouse. He ordered his bodyguards to take the wolf to his farmhouse and call a veterinarian to treat him. He had come to the hospital with Anna. His secretary was also with him.

 When the doctor came out of the ICU, Sanan rushed towards him.

"How's that girl, Doctor?" He asked anxiously. Aman had carefully watched his concern for a girl.

"She is OK. She lost consciousness due to fear and her heartbeat slowed down. But now she is normal." Doctor said in a professional way.

"Can I meet her?" Sanan asked. Aman observed his face.

"Yes, of course." The doctor nodded and left. Sanan entered the room but he was surprised to see that the bed was empty. Anna was not in the room.

………………...

Haad was conscious. His wounds had mostly healed. Seeing himself in the cage made him very angry. He got up from the ground and moved forward, broke the bars of the cage, and came out. That was the back of the farmhouse. There were no bodyguards at the time. He crossed the walls of the farmhouse and ran into the forest. When the two employees arrived, they found the broken cage empty. And this news reached Sanan. Sanan ordered his guards to find the wolf.

………………………….

 Anna was lying motionless on the bed. Zaria was standing near her. She was looking at Anna with cold eyes. She was a witch, who kidnapped Anna for her special purpose when she was born and raised for eighteen years. She needed Anna to revive haad from his statue state. Anna was no longer of any use to her. She wanted to kill her now.

 "Thanks. You helped me a lot. But you are no longer necessary to me. So you must die now." she said viciously and pointed her hand towards anna. A magic rope came out from her hand and grasped Anna's neck. Anna’s breath stopped. She regained consciousness and began to suffer acute pain.

…………………….

When Haad came out of the room, he saw the front view and became stilled. His eyes were fixed on the same girl for whom he was going crazy. She was standing a few steps away from him. Haad couldn't believe it for a while. Then, he came out of surprise and hurried towards the girl. There was a smile on Zaria's lips. She appeared in front of Haad in the form of Anna.

When Haad was one step away from her, Haad suddenly stopped. He had known at that moment that she was another girl. She was not what she was looking like. He got angry and grabbed Zaria's neck. Zaria's eyes widened in shock.

"Where is that girl?" Surprisingly, He was speaking the local language now, despite being old. 

 Zaria wanted to disappear with the magic but her magic could not work due to her closeness to Haad. On the contrary, it was declining. And on the other side, her magic rope was removed from Anna's neck. Anna got up coughing and started breathing heavily.

"Mama… ..mama!" She barely called Zaria. She was scared. Her whole body was trembling and her heart was pounding. She did not know who attacked her. she couldn't even think about it. She got out of bed and staggered out of the room.

"Mama ... where are you?" She came down the stairs looking for Zaria but she didn't find her anywhere. Maybe she wasn't at home. she thought. Anna could not stay there alone. She rushed to the front door to save her life and left the house. After walking two steps, her foot twisted. She fell. She was in pain but she didn't care and got up, started running. Sobs come out of her lips that were heard by Haad. He looked to the right side and left Zaria's neck. He started running to the right side.

…………………………….

The prince had spent that night in the forest. He did not understand what had happened to him. How did he become a wolf? On the one hand, he was saddened by the death of his friends and on the other hand, he was shocked to become a wolf. Even after killing that wolf, his anger did not subside, he started smashing everything that came in front of him. He was scratching the branches of the trees. He picked up the stones and threw them away. He turned his face towards the sky and howled, then he bowed his head and took deep breaths. After sighing and mourning over the death of his friends till midnight, he said goodbye to them all and walked away. Every animal that came in front of him on the way kept dying by his hands. He started wandering in the forest. In the morning, the sunlight appeared, he felt a change in his body. He was surprised. In a short time, he became human again. She was pleasantly amazed. He thanked God for becoming human again. He thought he would always be a wolf, but he was overjoyed when he saw himself become a human again. Now he could go to his area. Before going home, he went to visit his dead friends.

……………...

She was running very fast. It was a little far from home. She was tired of running when she hit someone. A scream came out of her lips and she fainted. Haad grabbed her with both arms. He was watching her silently. How sweet she was. She was very close to him. He could feel her heartbeat. After finding her, he was relieved. He bent down, lifted her in his arms, and brought her to his palace. The palace had many rooms. He came to a bedroom and laid Anna on the bed. Before stepping back, her innocent beauty stilled him for some moments. Then he smiled charmingly, stepped back, and sat on a couch.  His eyes fixed on Anna's attractive face. After a while, Anna's eyelashes moved slowly. Haad came close to her.

"No. Don't kill me …... Save me." She muttered before opening her eyes. Haad distressed.

"Hey, girl. Get up, " He patted her cheek. Anna opened her eyes and saw someone close to her. She screamed with fear.

"Leave me. Don't kill me," she said, pushing Haad back.

"Look, I'm not doing anything. Don't be afraid. I won't kill you." Haad moved back and raised his hands. Anna became silent and looked at him with a blank stare. Then she remembered that she had come out of the house in fear and collided with someone. He was probably that boy.

"Who are you?" She asked innocently. Haad was surprised. Did she forget him?

"You forgot? We've met in this house before. You came here and revived me from the statue." He reminded her. Anna was blinking her eyes looking at him in confusion. Haad shook his head in disappointment.

"Never mind. I'm talking nonsense. Don't take it seriously. By the way, my name is Haad." He said.

"Haad!" He was glad to hear his name from her lips.

"And what's your name?" He asked softly.

"Anna" Her lips moved very beautifully. Haad had a desire to touch them. Her voice made his heart beat fast.

"Why were you running?" He questioned concernedly.

"Someone was going to kill me." There was fear in her tone.

"Who?" Haad asked angrily. His heart trembled by thinking that she was about to die. 

"I don't know. I didn't see him. He was strangling me. Mama wasn't home either." She started crying. Haad stepped forward and hugged her. Anna's Heart skipped a beat.

"Don't cry. No one will harm you now. I am with you" He was holding her in his arms. Anna's heart was pounding now. She hesitated and tried to back away. Haad realized her shyness and moved back.

"I have to go home." She murmured.

"You can't leave me now," Haad said obsessively. Anna looked at him in surprise. Then in the next moment, she disappeared suddenly in front of him. Haad's breath stopped. She had gotten away from him again like before and he could not do anything.

"No ..." He nodded his head and then started screaming helplessly.

"Why did you leave me again?" Haad got angry with Anna. Then he began to feel pain in his body. He was rapidly trying to control himself. He had to find Anna in human form.

……………….

Zaria's powers returned shortly after some time. Being so close to Haad, her powers could not work. She didn't know why this happened. Haad strangled her, making her even weaker. It took her half an hour to regain power. She knew by magic that Haad had taken Anna to his home. She was very envious of Anna. She made Anna disappear and chained her in a prison cell. The next moment she was in front of Haad. But this time she came to him in her appearance. She was a beautiful woman in her thirties. Haad was surprised to see her suddenly. He had seen her before when he was in the form of a statue. This woman came to him once. Now Haad was surprised to see him.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Zaria. Anna's mother." Zaria said.

"Anna? ...... Where is she? You took her away from me?" He understood that Zaria was a witch. She must have made Anna disappear just as she suddenly came in front of him with magic.

"Yes. I have her. Would you like to see how she is?" Zaria calmly pointed to a wall. Haad looked at the wall. a scene of a prison showed there in which Anna was chained. He stilled for a moment in shock. Then his eyes began to turn red.

"You bitch …… I'll kill you." He rushed to Zaria but she disappeared. Haad heard a laugh from behind. He turned furiously.

"You can't catch me. And you can't compete with me. If you want Anna, you have to obey me." Zaria spoke in a proud tone.

"What do you want?" He tried to control his anger.

"You have to marry me," Zaria stated the condition. He became upset. After meeting Anna, he could not think about any other women. But it was necessary to save Anna. He could not decide for some moments. He saw the clever woman standing in front of him angrily. He felt hate for Zaria.

"Okay. I accepted your condition." Haad spoke after some thought.

"Great," Zaria said with a triumphant smile.

"And what if I don't get Anna?" He said with doubt.

"You will definitely get her. But if you try to do something wrong, I won't take a second to kill her." she threatened. 

“You can not be her mother.” He guessed. Zaria smiled in reply.

"Do you know who made you live from the statue? I did," she said. Haad looked at her confusedly.

"I sent Anna to you," she told him. Haad remained silent.

"And I know you're a werewolf." She smirked. Haad was speechless.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone," she said as she approached her. Haad was looking at her with a blank face. Zaria placed one hand on his shoulder and got closer to him. 

"Stay away from me," Haad said, controlling his anger.

"Oh come on. You have to marry me. Don't be shy." She spoke shamelessly.

"But I don't like it. You have to marry me first. Then you can come closer to me." Haad said, she fumed in her heart but brought a smile to her face.

"Okay. We'll get married tomorrow." She chewed and spoke.
