- I'm Dilruba Sultan, daughter of Halime Sultan and granddaughter of Safiye Sultan!! - Dilruba continued, getting the guards attention immediately - Kösem Sultan is trying to kidnap us!! Me and Sehzade Mustafa!!
Now all of them were standing around us.
- Hold on! - I shouted - Don't you dare touch me! I'm Kösem Sultan! Sultan Herman's first lady!
- That doesn't matter - said one of the guards with his sword out.
- Sehzade Osman, Sehzade Mehmed and all the others are hiding in one of the houses nearby!! - Dilruba said.
- You little... - I hissed while two guards were already holding my arms.
I couldn't let them hurt my son...
- She's lying! It was only us, who was hiding there!!
- Let us make sure about that - spoke the same guy again and we headed back towards the house.
No...
I can't let this happen!
But I'm trapped already...
No... My son...
I know I sound extremely selfish right now, but I don't really care.
I just don't want my son to get hurt.
----- TIME SKIP -----
When we arrived to the house Dilruba lead them inside and to the room, where we were sleeping only a few minutes ago...
But the room was empty.
And by empty I mean there was only Defne and her mother standing there when we got it...
Wait, how...?
- Where are they?! - spoke the same guy again.
- They were here! - Dilruba snapped.
God, how much I regret taking her with us now.
You have no idea...
- Tell them where they are! - she hissed at Defne.
- Nobody else has ever been here - Defne replied coldly to her - Only you two... And Kösem Sultan...
The last part she said really painfully and I nearly started crying.
I don't know what did they do, but they hid the kids, the Valide, Cennett and Azura so perfectly that even I had no idea where they were.
Luckily the men gave up and we headed to the palace, since Safiye wanted me and Mustafa back there first.
(No one's POV)
Defne ran out after the men took Kösem away and at the same time Cennett also came out to see them slowly disappearing in the distance.
Once when Defne turned back she was at the edge of tears...
- Where are they taking her? - she asked Cennett on a shaky voice.
- Probably to Safiye Sultan... - Cennett replied with a painful sigh.
- What will they do to her?
Cennett sighed again.
- I don't know for sure... But she will possibly be punished... The worst way possible...
They both were sad to see this happening and being unable to help, but they also had to take care of the others inside the house.
