Hurrem Sultana decided to make a huge celebration in Harem in Bayezid's name. She invited concubines to dance and play music for us in Harem. She sat on her throne on Harem and enjoyed the music, but the thing is that she didn't invite me.

I couldn't care less for Hurrem's celebration or for the fact that she didn't invited me. Being in dungeon would be more fun than sitting with her and Rana at the same table.

Mihrimah called me to come with her, but I refused. If I wasn't called, I wouldnt go there.

The party started already at early evening and I heard the music even in my chambers. I decided I won't go down to sit with Hurrem and Rana, even though Mihrimah was there, but I would rather go on Harem balcony to see what is happening.

I stood there and looked everything what is happening at that moment. I saw Rana is doing whatever is possible just to became closer with Hurrem. She thought Hurrem is able to defend her from me, but she didn't know no one will be able to stop me from what I thought.

I saw Hurrem is enjoying the party, until the moment she saw me standing at the Harem's balcony. Her mood changed quickly from happy to angry. I putted my hand on balcony so she could better see her emerald ring on my hand.

Rana looked at me also and she rolled my eyes. I saw she whispered something to Hurrem. Mihrimah sent me huge smile from downstairs.

- Sultana, Hurrem Sultana called you to come down. She has to talk with you. - Sumbul-aga, Hurrem's close servant came to me to tell me that.

I decided to go because I wanted to know Hurrem's reaction. I wanted to see her explode when she sees the ring on my hand.

I came downstairs and bowed to Hurrem and Mihrimah. I sat next to Mihrimah on sofa because as Haseki Sultan I could do it. Rana sat down on pillow and she looked jealousy at me.

- How can you sit next to Mihrimah Sultana? Dont you know you aren't the same title? - Rana asked me shocked by my acts.

- Don't compare herself to you, Rana. You are still a slave, while she is legal wife of my brother. There is huge difference between you. - Mihrimah raised her head and said to Rana, and smiled at me.

- Mihrimah, you can't mix into that. Rana is right. - Hurrem yelled on Mihrimah angrily.

- Excuse me, Valide, but you are also Haseki Sultana. How can you treat Aslihan different when she is same positioned as you? - Mihrimah sarcastically asked her which made her angry.

I took glass of water which was standing on the table, even though I wasn't thirsty, I just wanted Hurrem to see the emerald ring on my hand.

- Who gave you permission to wear that ring? - Hurrem asked me. It was easy to see she is really touched because of that, because I knew that ring means a lot to her.

- Şehzade Bayezid gave me it as our wedding gift. - I said to Hurrem with a smile.

- You will return it to me right now. This doesn't belong to you. - Hurrem said to me and she putted her hand in front of me, meaning I should give it to her.

- I won't Sultana. I got this as my wedding gift and for sure I don't plan to return it to you. - I said to her with a smile which made her crazy.

- Only powerful Sultanas can wear that ring. And you aren't one of them for sure. - Hurrem said raising her head.

- That's why you lost it, because you aren't one of them anymore. - I said and raised my head in front of her. Deep in my soul I wasn't like this. I never meant any bad to anyone, but after everything that happened to me in Harem, I had to change my personality.

- You will return it to me. I am asking you to give it to me now, but if you dont want, I will use all the power that I have to get it back from you. - Hurrem said to me angrily.

- You can use whatever power you want, you won't get it back. - I said to her as I fake smiled to her.

- And now excuse me, I will go to check my children. - I said as I got up from the table. I went to see how Murad is because I was scared for his health.

I started walking towards his chambers, when I heard Hurrem is following me. She yelled my name, so I stopped and waited to see what she wants from me.

- What do you want? - I asked her coldly.
- Aslihan, you wouldnt be here where you are now if I wasn't here to help you. You will return me this ring immediatley. - she said to me and I saw she is really frustrated about the ring, I didn't even knew a ring can mean so much to a person, but I wouldnt return it to her.

- Excuse me, but I already told you and I won't repeat it to you anymore. The ring stays with me. I came where I am because of myself, not because of you. - I said to her and raised my head.

At that moment Hurrem was really frustrated. I saw fire in her eyes. She looked at me angrily and then slapped me at that moment. My cheek hurted me so much from her slap, but I couldn't let her do it anymore.

- Your slap won't help you return your ring. Stop thinking about it anymore. I am not afraid of you anymore. - I yelled on her and made her even more angry.

At that moment, I've heard someone is walking from my back. I turned and I saw Fahriye Kalfa which was loyalest servant to Hurrem Sultana, together with Sumbul-aga.

- Who are you to not respect our Hurrem Sultana? Return the ring to her right now. - Fahriye said to me. I just turned to Hurrem again and saw her being really angry, almost at the edge of tears from furious.

- I won't. - I said looking at Hurrem directly in the eyes.

At that moment, I've felt huge pain in my stomach. I looked at it and saw Fahriye attacked me with a knife in the middle of my stomach.

At that moment it started hurting me so much. I could feel my blood bleeding all around my wound.

I couldn't handle the pain and I fell down on my knees, and after that I saw everything blurred.

I saw double vision of Hurrem. She took my hand and took the ring from my hand.

Everything started being dark in front of my eyes so I fell down on the floor. I just heard Hurrem's steps how she is leaving me attacked laying on the floor while she is going away with the ring she took from me. And then I fainted.
