Threats and Plans

Tapinakçilar Castle

Titus was present with the stern face. His gaze was continuously on the map kept on the table. Petruccio came, all the soldiers bowed to him. Petruccio stood infront of Titus. Titus's eyes held different emotions, definitely not the pleasant one. The sour silence between them was like that of between a mother and his child after her scolding him. But neither they were relatives nor attached.

"Efendi!" Titus greet him. Petruccio nodded his head. He took out a letter from his dress.

"We, will reconsider our plan Titus." Petruccio started. "There are some changes."

"We won't overtake Anatolia you mean to say?" Titus asked confused.

"Not now. We will now attack Kayi's." A smirk escaped his lips.
"They are at their weakest now. It's perfect time to erase the name of Kayi from history."

"But Efendi... Kurdoglu said, he will convince his people to give up once he will be Bey. So why this attack now?" Titus was unsure.

"Kurdoglu...." Grumpily Petruccio took his name. "He is a power thirsty man. He will even ditch the devil himself for his benefits. He just wants to overpower Kayi's, he will lie to any extent for that."

Titus felt surprised.

"But how you know this?" He enquired.

Petruccio smirked. He has his own ways!

"Not important for now. You will prepare soldiers for attacking Kayi, once Kurdoglu will gain Beylic. Then our aim will be Kara Toygar. Indeed, they both have the habits of pea from one pod."

And Petruccio considers himself the most holy one on this earth. Titus remained staring him. He has something more in his mind, which he won't uncover now. He knows, if a person plans to kills his own ally, hw himself is not even a pawn for him. And for this reason, he knows well how to execute for his brother's revenge.

Kayi Tribe

"Don't know how long!" She sighed.

Turgut smiled lightly seeing her. She was right, everyone is tired of waiting now, let the reason be any. Turgut was sitting just infront of Aykiz. Turgut softly grabbed her hand.

"My sweetheart.... Why you are stressing yourself... Don't you trust Allah. Indeed, he knows everything and do everything right." Turgut was trying to assure her. Aykiz saw him.

"I know Turgut! And I know too that, everything's has it's own timing, but it's just I am tired. Tired of everything, moreover..." She took a brief pause. "I don't know why but this girl Halime... Didn't seems right... I mean,she is hiding something." Aykiz completed. She looked in Turgut's eyes.

"I am scared for this too Turgut, I really hope we don't slip into another problem because of her."

Turgut took a minute to reply. She might be right and not, but he didn't deny the fact that the girl is mysterious.

"Well Aykiz... I don't know anything about problems, but yes I find her a riddle too! Moreover, she seems to be familiar to me."

"Familiar?" She asked.

"Yes, I think I know her... I am not sure because I can't remember her face from past, but still I am having strong feeling that I know her."

"Strange!" Aykiz exclaimed.

"But..." Aykiz saw him. "There is one possibility.

Mother Hayme, Halime and Aykiz were sitting in mother hayme's tent, upon calling by mother hayme. For some little talks, they thought. She seemed to arrange her things, and Aykiz and Halime took their seat infront of her.
