After the good news I literally flew to the harem to see if Mehmed's there, or not, but instead I bumped into Cennett.
- Why are you so happy? - she asked me.
- You have no idea how happy I actually am! - I replied.
- Well, I would, if you'd tell me.
I stepped closer and whispered the news into her ear which caused her to nearly scream.
- Shut up! Jesus... - I groaned.
- Sorry, but this is amazing! Isn't it?
- It is, it is!
- When will you tell the Sultan about it?
- I don't know, but hopefully as soon as I possibly can!
Suddenly Bulbul appeared behind us, making both of us go silent.
- Kösem... Sultan Herman wants to see you right now - Bulbul added.
- Okay! - I nodded and quickly went towards his room, not knowing what is actually going to happen once when I get there...
----- TIME SKIP -----
I walked in.
He was standing there, in front of the fire place, with his back towards the door.
- Herman... - I said quietly, to make him notice I'm actually here as he seemed to be deep in thoughts at the moment.
I was about to speak up about the good news when he literally snapped at me...
- Who do you think you are, in this palace? - he asked as he now turned to face me - Who do you think you are to decide about other people's fate? To where they belong to?
I was shocked and seriously confused.
- Wha...
- Katerina! - he shouted this time - Who do you think you are to close her down like that?!
I indeed asked Mehmed to take care of her and it seems like that's what he did.
- Don't you dare! Don't you dare... To do anything like that anymore without my permission, understood?!
This is ridiculous.
Seems like some slut is more important to him than me...
- Understood... My Sultan... - I groaned.
At this point I didn't even want to talk to him so I just bowed and left his room.
I can't believe this crap.
Why is some girl more important?
I mean... What does she have that I don't and is making her more important?
She has nothing.
But whatever.
I'll stay silent and focus on my other mission I have which is to get a believable proof of Fahriye Sultan's sin.
And I already know how to do that...
