What began as a lost girl without roots became a woman bound to an empire. Nevşah Saadet. The foreigner no one expected. The consort he could not forget. The one history never saw coming. Fatih Sultan Mehmed's most treasured companion, and the woman who would change the course of history forever. "In love and conquest, rules are written by the victors, and legacy remembers only the brave."

A prophecy foretells that only one girl is destined to cure the king.

In the shadow of his throne, they rose. Each of Sultan Süleyman's sisters selects a girl to groom for the imperial court, unaware that their choices will set in motion events that could alter the course of history.

She was nurtured by love, he was forged by power. She brought light to his darkest hours; he offered shelter when her world trembled. Together, they became sanctuary and strength, a steadfast haven.

Hüma, a woman dismissed, tested, and forged by hardship, rises unexpectedly within the court of Murad II, where power is fragile and the path promises no ease. Through resilience and cleverness, she establishes herself as more than a mere consort, becoming the mother of the future Conqueror and the hidden force behind a dynasty that will change history forever, its Foundress at the very origin.

Every empire begins with a mother's sin. Every Lilith leaves a mark no man can forget, and every life that crosses her path is altered, or quietly undone. Hülya was not born cruel. She was born clever in a world that devours the innocent and mistakes gentleness for weakness. In the court of Mehmed III, mercy is a luxury few survive, and love is a liability that can cost a throne. So she chooses fire over fear, ambition over surrender, and sin before sin has the chance to choose her. Merciless is the story of a mother who refused to fall in a world designed to bury her, and of the empire that would never be the same because of it.

An alliance between the Ottoman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire is set to be sealed by a marriage between the two dynasties.

Tras su eclipse, ellas se alzaron. Cada una de las hermanas del Sultán Süleyman elige a una joven para prepararla en la corte imperial, sin saber que sus decisiones pondrán en marcha acontecimientos que podrían cambiar el curso de la historia.
