Ottoman Stories

"They executed her father. They erased her brother. They forgot the daughter was still alive.""

Book 2 in the Heed My Name Series. Excerpt: "He looked down, watching her face peacefully lull against his chest plate; she was sleeping, just sleeping. Any other thought would only cause him panic; she would be well, she would live, she is alive. The words echoed in his skull, repeating them over and over to himself. In a kinder world, what would they have been? From the start? Would he have teased her? Maybe picked her flowers? She would have denied him, and he would have chased her until she'd call him "mine". But this world isn't kind." ___________________________________________________________________ After the blood-drenched night, pieces that once seemed to fit neatly into place are now scattered and distorted into a picture far from the prophecy Orion had imagined for himself. Sutekh has lost far more than his head, but those losses soon turn out to form unlikely alliances which are now the only strings keeping the play from falling apart. Kallista might have gained what freedom she sought, but at what price? To be hunted like game by the very Empire she'd been promised to one day inherit. But will that very game be what finally unravels what desires she swore to keep buried, or will Orion's secrets be what ultimately destroys what they fought so hard to deny? _________________________________________________________________________________ DISCALIMER Be aware that this is an unedited first draft of this story and that English is not my first language.

Dilruba Sultan has risen from a nameless girl in the harem to a mother of twins, a Sultana, and the strongest force beside Şehzade Mustafa - the heir the empire needs but the throne refuses to see. Their love was born in betrayal. It has survived scheming rivals, bitter enemies, and a palace that chews women alive and spits out their bones. But love alone does not win thrones. In a world where everyone poisons everyone, where family becomes the biggest enemy, and where one wrong step means death - Dilruba and Mustafa must fight together as they never have before. Not just to survive. Not just to love. To reign. This is not just a love story anymore. This is war.

1892. CONSTANTINOPLE. Murad never knew what to expect at weddings, especially not his own. He'd never even met the bride, much less know her family. Brought up in a religious household, Murad had always tried to be good and obedient. Obedient to what was expected of him. Obedient to the tight, carefully-placed rules governed by the word of God. But when an unexpected guest comes to the wedding uninvited, the fragile facade Murad had painstakingly built collapses overnight. Iskender never liked the restrictive unspoken rules of the religious elite. So much so that he retreated to his estate in Nicomedia while his family all forgets about him for the most part. Far from his family's attention he hosts parties - complete with wine, women and other forms of western debauchery. Modern and outward-looking, Iskender thinks himself better than conservative society. But a kind, unsure smile was all it took for him to rethink his prejudice. Constantinople lay on a fault line - the crossroads of the world, where east meets west and old meets new. The house of cards in the very center of a dying empire, where the slightest of tremors would bring everything crumbling down. And nothing beautiful ever lasts.

What happens if the disgraced child of the Ottoman Empire saves his family by risking everything and his entire family becomes his enemy? (it progresses differently than normal history, the events and people in the story are fictionalized)
