Moonlight 💫

~Chapter 28~

''I'm so happy bade , I really am '' Feraye said to her friend as they sat near the balcony. "The view from the balcony is breathtaking," she continued, her eyes sparkling. Below them lay the sprawling gardens of the Turkish mansion, with its ornate fountains and lush, vibrant flowers.

"Last night with Ateş was magical. He really is an angel and I don't deserve him, he's been nothing but good to me every since the first time he came back , he wanted to make me his wife just so I wouldn't have to raise my baby alone, but I couldn't even be honest with him and tell him that me and Yaman were together that Yaman his brother was the father of my unborn baby ,I really hate how much I hurt him'' Feraye confessed, her voice filled with emotion.

Bade reached out and gently squeezed Feraye's hand, offering silent support. "You did what you thought was best at the time," Bade said softly, her eyes full of understanding and compassion. "But now you have a chance to make things right and be honest with Ateş, you have no reason to lie to him anymore he loves you love him, and I know that the only reason why you're still with Yaman is because you want to protect Ates from him but I promise that Ates can take care of himself you know , you don't have to imprison your self anymore Yaman doesn't own you ''

Feraye's eyes welled up with tears as she listened to Bade's comforting words. She took a deep breath and nodded, feeling a weight lift off her shoulders for the first time in months. "You're right," she whispered, a newfound resolve in her voice.

"I'm terrified of confronting Yaman," Feraye admitted, her voice trembling slightly. "He's always had this hold over me, making me feel powerless." But as she looked into Bade's reassuring eyes, she felt a spark of courage ignite within her

Bade squeezed Feraye's hand tighter, her voice steady and full of conviction. "You are stronger than you think, Feraye. Remember, you have people who care about you, including Ateş. We will stand by you, and you don't have to face Yaman alone. You deserve happiness and honesty, and it's time you reclaim your life."

 Feraye then got up with a new sense of confidence and headed to Yaman's room. Her heart pounded in her chest as she closed the door behind her. The click echoed ominously in the silence. Yaman looked up, surprise flickering in his eyes before it was replaced by his usual cold demeanor.

"We need to talk," Feraye began, her voice trembling but determined.

"You're such a coward, Yaman. Your obsession with Ateş made you neglect me and our unborn child. We lost the baby because you were too busy trying to outdo your brother instead of being there for us." The tension in the room was palpable, and Feraye's fury radiated off her in waves. She could see Yaman's jaw tighten, but for once, she wasn't afraid.

"This ends now," she declared, her voice unwavering. "I won't let you control me any longer. I grew up with you and I've been loving you ever since ,but I-''

''I love you,'' Yaman said cutting her off. Feraye's eyes widened in shock, her breath catching in her throat. For a moment, she was speechless, her anger momentarily forgotten as she processed his unexpected words. But then, a bitter smile curled her lips as she shook her head.

Yaman's eyes softened, a rare vulnerability showing through his hardened exterior. He took a hesitant step towards her, his hand reaching out as if to bridge the emotional chasm between them.

"Feraye, I know I've made mistakes, but I want to make things right," he pleaded, his voice barely above a whisper.

''There's nothing to make right anymore Yaman , the only thing that aligns me to you is gone ,I love Ates and he loves me I want to be with him he makes me happy ,happier than you ever could, I can't be with you now, I have to be with Ates. I want to be with him and I want to be happy. I can't be with you anymore, I need to move on. I'm sorry Yaman, but I can't do this anymore.'' And with that she left the room.
