Living a normal life was now impossible to Lily after being kidnapped by the tatters. She was stolen off of the boat that was supposed to take her to England to study from the White Sea after visiting her family that lived in Egypt because of her fa...
"The Sultanas are waiting for you on the teras and Hatice Sultan required the presence of Shehzade Murad, she wants to see him before bed," Helen said as she secured my tiara on my head.
"Bring him to me" I ordered smothering down my beautiful blue dress. Helen came back a minute later with Murad. I walked out of my room with the four months old baby in my arms. I walked down the harem proudly as the girls looked up to get a glimpse of my darling boy.
"Hold him, Zeynep, he doesn't like to be in the same pair of arms for long," I said making her laugh as she took the small boy from me. Maybe I should ask Hundi to add Zeynep to my woman and end her long search for someone loyal, Zeynep has never betrayed my trust before.
When I reached the room Hatice Sultan was using, during her stay here in the palace until Ibrahim pasha came back from the campaign, the girls immediately opened the doors for me and let me in. I walked out onto the teras where the others were sitting giggling.

"My Murad" Hatice got up and walked over to me as I bowed to her, she smiled at me before turning to look at Murad in Zeynep's arms.
"We finally know he has been grumpy today, he missed his aunt," I said watching as he giggled happily when she tickled his small feet.
"Maybe I should steal him from you and keep him all to myself" She joke turning to face me fully. I chuckled patting Murad's small hand which he was flailing happily.
"He's all yours" I joked back as she walked back over to her throne. I walked over to the table Hurrem was sitting on and took a seat beside her, in front of me sat Gulfem hatun and Mahidevran on their own table.

"Zeynep, take the Shehzade back to my chambers and put him to bed" I ordered, she bowed and left the teras. I took a sip of water as Hurrem stood up and took a seat beside Hatice.
"I'm sorry, but my legs were starting to hurt," Hurrem said apologetically. Hatice feeling happy from seeing Murad nodded her head. I smiled at the maid who handed me a plate with some food on it. I took a small bite to make sure it wasn't too hot before taking a slightly bigger bite. After a couple of minutes, Hatice sighed placing her plate down beside her on a table earning all of our attention.
