Sultan Mahmoud was the most lustful sultan the Othman empire has ever known since it rose from nothing to the strong dynasty it is now. He was a womanizer and the whole dynasty knew that but they didn't care as long as he was leaving for campaigns t...
"How are you feeling today?" Daphne asked braiding a lock of my hair and pulling it back and tying it there.
"The morning sickness is making me go crazy, it wasn't like that with Ahmet" I whined a little pulling on my necklace and locking it in place.
"Maybe it's because you're having a girl," Diana Kalfa said from the side. Daphne glared at her and was about to say something but I cut her off.
"Maybe," I said placing my hand over my still flat stomach. Many women would be sad if they had a girl in this dynasty because they don't give you power but I didn't care as long as they were healthy.
"Where's Ahmet?" I asked feeling worried since it's been calm most of the time since I woke up.
"He's with Zeynap hatun, she's been sticking with the prince since you let her join me as one of your maids" Daphne explained. I stood up fearing that maybe she was a spy and wanted to stay with my prince to harm him or worse kill him.
"Why did you leave her alone with him?" I asked mad already marching out of the room and down the small harem, we had in this castle. Daphne and Diana followed behind me hurriedly.
"I thought you trusted her since you let her join me," She said catching up to me.
"I let her join to test her loyalty," I said angrily glaring at Daphne who whimpered and staggered a little back but still followed me.
I barged into the room making the doors hit the wall. I looked to the side to find Zeynap sat on a couch with Ahmet standing on her lap like she was bouncing him before I barged in when she saw me she jumped up and bowed to me holding Ahmet close to her so she won't drop him.
"Ahmet" I sighed relieved and ran over, taking him from her and held him close to me feeling relief wash over me as he was in my arms safe and sound.
"Go back to the harem Zeynap" I ordered. She bowed and left the room looking a little shaken up from me barging in like this.
"This is the last time I forgive such mistakes, Daphne," I said angrily turning around to glare at her making her look down in shame.
"You are the only one allowed around my children and you would entrust them only to the maids I tell you to. If I let her in as one of my women doesn't mean I trust her to that extent" I explained calming down a little.
"Let's go back to my room, it's much safer there," I said handing Ahmet to Daphne before walking back out of the room and down the harem. Diana left us to do some work so it was only me and Daphne that went back to my room.
I sat down on my couch feeling exhausted already, this pregnancy was already draining me. I heaved feeling like I need to throw up making Daphne lean forward worriedly but I raised my hand as the nausea went away and I felt myself settle back.
I looked up when the doors opened and Hatice walked in confusing me, since when does she visit me in my own room. I stood up with a confused face and pointed for Daphne to take Ahmet and leave the room.

"Heard you had a meltdown today when you didn't find the heir to the throne today," She said almost sarcastically.
"It's none of your business," I said angrily glaring at her making her smirk even more at my reaction.
"Of course it is, your son is my daughter's brother," She said stepping closer to me with her head held high like she owned the world.
"What changed you so suddenly?" I asked also stepping closer to her making her confidence flatter a little.
"You were so nice and admit that you knew that the sultan doesn't want you anymore and now you're acting like you're back in the game," I said taking another step closer to her.
"Who said I was out of the game?" SHe asked sassily. I raised my eyebrow in confusion at her words.
"When Isa died you spent a lot of time with Mahmoud to comfort him, but you spent the days with him, not the nights," She said smirking. My eyes widened at her words making me clench my fists tightly. Since when was Mahmoud interested in her again?
"That doesn't change anything, I still own his heart," I said confidently. I know I owned his heart he was mine and only mine and I understand why he spent time with Hatice he needed heirs and it was the harem traditions especially after a prince dies he has to conceive more to fill in the space the deceased prince left behind.
"I will get rid of you as I got rid of Fatma" I continued strongly. She let out a sarcastic laugh.
"You didn't get rid of her, she ruined herself by being stupid, instead of spreading these rumors as an anonymous she went and said her name like a total idiot" She shrugged. She was right I didn't kick Fatma out but I will kick her out.
"Aren't you going to mention Leyla? You killed her son to get to her position" She said. She was trying to make me sat that I did but I won't let her.
"I had no hand in prince Isa's sickness, he was a small child and his body would've never survived the sickness," I said angrily. I stalked over to her so we were chest to chest.
"Get out of my room and stop saying none sense" I ordered angrily. She smirked at me and pushed her hair off her shoulder almost hitting me in the face and turned around to leave the room. She stopped in front of the extra room's door and smirked in at who I assume is Daphne holding Ahmet Cem before leaving the room.
I let out a scream pushing over the table in front of the couch I was sitting on making all of the fruits fly around the room with the cup of juice on it.
"She will regret threatening me and my son," I said glaring at the door she just left through like she was still standing there.
