"Girl, what is your name?" I asked young girl which served coffe to me and Halime in Old Palace. Two months have passed since Osman ascended the throne, and those two months were living hell for me.

" Nilufer, my Sultana." shy girl said as she blushed when I asked her something. She was beautiful and young and she was ideal for my plan.

" How old are you?" I asked her.

" Sixteen, Sultana." she answered me. Halime looked at me with smirk because she excatly knew what would I do.

" I will send you to Topkapi Palace, and you have to make sure to make Sultan Osman fall in love with you. But you will never ever mention me." I said to her seriously so she could understand what is important. She was so happy when she found out she has opportunity to meet young Sultan.

" Thank you so much Sultana." Nilufer said and left my chambers.

" How do you plan to get her to Topkapi?" Halime asked me curiously.

" Haci will bring her and tell she is new girl there. Mahfiruz thinks Haci is loyal to her now as she is Valide Sultana." I said as I drank sip of my coffee.

" Do whatever is needed for us to get rid of Osman and that snake Mahfiruz. I am ready to do whatever is needed to get rid of them. I will revenge my Mustafa." Halime said.

" Valide, I really don't want to marry. Osman chosed me a husband and I really don't want to marry him. I don't even have idea who is he." my eldest daughter Gevherhan came to me with her eyes filled in tears. She was already in age suitable for marriage and I knew Osman would do her marriage as soon as possible.

" I will call your future husband Halit Onur Paşa to see who is him. He better needs to be a good man, because my daughter won't marry someone who isn't good to her." I said and putted my hands on her cheeks.

" But Valide, marriage is supposed to be at the end of this month. I don't want to do it." Gevherhan said and I hugged her. What hurted me the most was looking at my children being sad.

" You shouldn't worry my beautiful angel. I will do whatever is needed. Halit Onur Paşa will treat you as best as you deserve. If it's going to be any otherwise, I will take his head with my own hands." I said trying to comfort my daughter.

" Thank you, mother." Gevherhan said and left my chambers.

This afternoon I decided to call my daughter's fiancee Halit Onur Paşa. I didn't want my daughter to worry a lot about him, but I was the one who worried the most.

I worried who was this pasha, I had no idea where he was from or how old he was. I didn't want to marry my daughter to man twice her age.

But nothing would surprise me when Osman and Mahfiruz chosed him. I didn't want my daughter's husband to be someone who is not loyal to us.

I came in Marmara Palace where he was awaiting for me. I saw man in his early 20s and I sighed from relief knowing my daughter will have husband who is suitable for her age.

" Sultana, you called for me." Halit Onur Paşa said as he bowed to me. He seemed to be good-looking man at first and I was glad of that for Gevherhan.

" Yes, as you are going to become my son-in-law I wanted to talk with you." I said to him and acted seriously. He should have fear from me so he wouldn't even think about being bad towards my daughter.

" You have nothing to worry, Sultana. I promise you on my loyality. I will be loyal to you for my whole life." Halit said.

" What I want from you more than loyality is to treat my daughter the way she deserves. I want you to be good towards her because she is precious and she is member of Ottoman Dynasty. If you make her cry even once, I will give you so many troubles that you will regret it." I said to him as he needed to know what should he except.

" I swear to you Sultana with my own life, I will treat Gevherhan Sultana like pupil in my eye." Halit said and I still didn't know if I could trust him.

" It better be like this." I said to him as I was ready to leave, but he stopped me.

" Sultan Osman thinks I am loyal to him, but only thing I want is to help you Sultana and put Şehzade Mehmed on the throne. We are scared if Sultan Osman will do something to his brothers. He locked them in one room and they can't leave it." Halit said.

I couldn't know if he is really loyal to me or this is just Osman's game to make sure if I want to dethrone him.

" There is nothing we can do while Osman is at the throne. Only thing I want from you is to save my sons and don't let Osman do something bad to them." I said trying not to show my intentions to him.

"Dilruba wrote me a letter. Osman decided to marry her for Kara Davut Paşa just as we wanted. Her and Gevherhan's wedding will be at the same day and both of us will be able to get into the Palace." Halime said to me.

" When I enter this Palace, I won't return here. I don't want to see Osman alive after that wedding. He will pay for me for everything he done." I said.

" Dilruba visited your sons and they said they can't stand this regim of Osman. He prohibited them from leaving." Halime said and it broke my heart.

" What matters to me the most is that they are healthy and alive now. If Osman dares to touch them I will kill him with my own hands." I said.
