"Sultanim, your wedding day has finally arrived," Fehime said as she helped me to get ready. This was the day I have been waiting for so long and I was really emotive on this day. I couldn't still believe that tonight I will finally be able to be Osman's wife and to see him without being afraid if anyone would see us.

It took me many time to prepare myself for this. I didn't know what should I chose to wear on this day as I wanted this to be the most beautiful day in my life, even though I knew I and Osman would be the only ones that are happy on this day.

Valide couldn't accept the fact that I am going to marry Osman and she was still against it. She didn't even want to make any feast in harem, but Beyhan talked with her and made her little more easy on this subject. I also invited my sister Sahuban on this wedding and it was good for her to come now and make some order here.

Hatice was still depressive and very angry on everyone since Ibrahim was in dungeon still and Suleiman didn't allow him to come out. He was waiting for perfect time to decide with his punishment, and honestly he was just procrastinating because he didn't know what was the best way to do. He knew the right thing is to punish Ibrahim, but he knew he would lose Hatice that way.

I ordered one of my new maids Bidar to take care of Nigar and make me the first one to know when she gives birth. I also sent Aylin with her brother Celal far away in one estate that Namik left to me so she could have peaceful life there.

"Sultanim, what will we do with Gulcemal now? You will move in your new Palace with Osman Pasha and I am afraid if Hurrem Sultana would do anything bad to her," Fehime said as she could not to not express her awareness. She was together with Gulcemal for the whole time while they served me in Bosnia and of course she was afraid for her.

"Hurrem knows if she does someone to her, that I will think of that like she did against me," I said because no matter of my and Hurrem's friendship I wouldn't allow her to do anything bad to Gulcemal because Suleiman himself has chosen her.

"I wish I could see Osman. I haven't seen him for a long time and I can't wait more until tonight," I said as I looked at myself in the mirror. I haven't seen him since he was left from dungeon since Suleiman didn't give me even though he allowed us to marry which I didn't understand. I wanted to see him at least for a minute but I knew I would risk the marriage then.

"Be patient Sultana, you will see him tonight when you move together in your Palace. And from then on you will see him every day and every night, you won't need to separate anymore," Fehime said as she had to calm me down and don't allow me to go and insist on seeing him now, when he shouldn't see the bride before the wedding.

Suddenly the doors of my chambers opened and Kaya came inside with my new maid Bidar who helped Fehime to take care of my children as she couldn't do it alone. Kaya always wanted to go somewhere to play especially with Mehmed and Mihrimah, and as Mahmud was still young and couldn't walk alone properly he couldn't go with her and Fehime had to take care of him.

"Mommy, I can't wait to see you as a bride," Kaya said as she ran into my hug. I placed a kiss on her cheeks and put her to sit next to me. She was really happy about my wedding and I was glad she would accept Osman because otherwise it would be hard for me if my children wouldn't like him.

"We will move tommorrow to our new Palace my brother Suleiman gifted to us," I said to her but her smile suddenly disappeared. I thought it may be hard for her as this would be the fourth place we are moving in a less than a year.

"I will stay here alone?" She said as she couldn't hide her sadness. She obviously thought I would move alone without my children.

"Of course not. You, Mahmud, Fehime and all my maids will go there. It will be our new home and I can't go anywhere without you my angel," I said as I placed hand on her cheeks and she immediately smiled again.

"Fahriye?" I heard a voice when doors of my chambers opened and I saw my sister Sahuban. I haven't seen her for so many years and I couldn't but not to go and hug my sister which together with Beyhan was really close with me.

"Sahuban, I am glad you arrived here for a wedding," I said as I welcomed her in my chambers. She seemed very happy for me in this moment.

"I couldn't not to come after everything that happened. I want to see my sister happy on this day as she deserves," Sahuban said while taking a box and gifting it to me. I opened it and inside I saw a beautiful diamond necklace.

"Thank you Sahuban," I said and placed the box as I was already prepared for the wedding and couldn't wear anything else beside.

"I really want to meet Hurrem everyone talks about. Valide and Hatice said so many bad things about her, and I want to know who has stolen heart of our brother," Sahuban said as she wasn't in Istanbul for so many years and she barely knew what is happening to everyone. But I knew how is it because when I arrived to Istanbul from Bosnia everything was weird for me too.

"She is not like they talked to you, I met her and I am glad Suleiman found someone like her who loves him not because of his position but for who he is," I said and saw Sahuban's smile dropped. She resembled our mother the most and she was very traditional and I knew she wouldn't like Hurrem same as they didn't because they all supported Mustafa and Mahidevran because Mustafa was heir to the throne.

"I will have to meet her to know my opinion, but I am saddened about Hatice. If Sultan kills Ibrahim, I don't know how she will be able to survive this. She is so emotional and doesn't deserve this stress. Sultan should at least take away his titles and let them leave peaceful lives," Sahuban said and at this moment my opinion already changed. I didn't know she would be like them and still want Ibrahim to stay on life just because of Hatice.

"I didn't know you will be able to give your opinion about this subject so far because you don't know the whole story," I said to her seriously as I thought at least her wouldn't be like them, but she was obviously too.

"Valide Sultan, how could you allow Fahriye Sultana's wedding to happen and everyone to have fun and be happy while Ibrahim Pasha is in dungeon and no one knows what is going to happen to him?" Mahidevran asked Valide Sultan as already everyone gathered in her chambers. Hatice just looked at her as she was really depressive and only mention of Ibrahim would make her even more and more sad, but she would show it with her anger on others.

"I didn't want this to happen. Suleiman ordered me to do this. Otherwise I would never allow this and I don't know why he wants to celebrate happiness of one daughter while other is dying from sadness," Valide said seriously as she sat on the sofa next to Beyhan and Hatice, while Mahidevran and Gulfem were sitting down on pillows.

"Valide you are still to harsh on Fahriye. She deserves to be happy after so many years. Why shouldn't she be happy? At the end because of Ibrahim Pasha she and her little children would be dead if Malkocoglu haven't saved them. You don't still treat them equal," Beyhan said but everyone was surprised in her words. Beyhan didn't like to mix in those things, but when she did mix everyone knew that situation is already serious.

"Beyhan, Ibrahim didn't do that. How don't you understand it?" Hatice yelled on her as she wanted to make everyone believe Ibrahim is innocent, even though everyone beside her knew Ibrahim is guilty.

"No matter what, Ibrahim is waiting for a child with another woman and this is his biggest sin, Hatice. I wanted to return when everything would be better, but I had no other to come here and make some order," Sahuban said seriously as she entered the chambers. She came and kissed her Valide's hand and sit down beside her. They two looked really alike and held the same way.

"I didn't know Sahuban you wouldn't believe me but believe Fahriye and those traitors instead," Hatice said being disappointed in her sister who she haven't seen in years.

"I know what the truth is, but you don't want to accept this truth. At least don't brag about yourself today when this is supposed to be Fahriye's happy day and let one day to be about her not about you," Sahuban said and surprised everyone with her words.

As it was already getting late, I knew the ceremony would begin any moment and I shouldn't be late for this. I walked downstairs from my chambers to the Harem where when agha announced my name all the concubines bowed to me.

I was dressed in long red wedding dress and had a veil that covered my head. I walked slowly to my Valide's chambers where everyone already was. I bowed to her and kissed her hand only because traditions said this, and I would never do it otherwise because I had no respect for her anymore. No one seemed to be happy for me expect for Beyhan, and only Hurrem was missing there.

I sat in the middle of the chambers as the henna night was being prepared. Maids walked around me while others were singing and playing music instruments.

This was the day when I was happiest but the fact that none of my family was happy for me hurted a bit. Only my sister Beyhan seemed to be happy for me, while others were preoccupied with Ibrahim's trial and what his punishment will be.

As the henna ceremony ended I sat next to my Valide, Sahuban, Beyhan and Hatice. Music was playing and it was supposed for everyone to enjoy the feast but rather all of them were very nervous.

"Congradulations Sultanim, I hope you will be happy in this marriage," Gulfem said smiling to be to try to be kind and gentle and I returned her with a smile, even though I knew she is gossiping about me for the whole time with Valide, Hatice and Mahidevran.

"This is marriage you deserve Fahriye, to finally be happy with a man you love. Where would be luck if I would be able to have that feeling one day," Sahuban said as she took my hand into hers trying to make at least good relations now after I was disappointed in her today.

"You see what I all had to do to be here and have happiness, it wasn't really easy like it was to others," I said and Hatice just looked at me angrily but I'm glad she was normal enough not to make any scandals now.

"Why didn't Hurrem come here?" Valide asked as she saw Mahidevran is for the whole time looking where Hurrem is. No one loved her but they were all bothered about what she is doing or where she is.

At that moment doors opened and Hurrem came inside with big and magnificent crown that even Valide never has worn. She came and bowed to all of us not being able to stop her smile on her face and I knew something good has happened when she is like this.

"Fahriye Sultan, I am sorry for being late and missing henna ceremony, I wanted to come here and bring you good news together with His Majesty," Hurrem said and only few minutes later Suleiman came inside. He smiled to Hurrem but first went to me as I bowed to him and kissed his hand.

"My sister Fahriye, I am finally happy to be able to make you happy. I hope Osman Pasha will treat you well and that you will be happy in this marriage. I am sorry that I needed many time to let you do this, but most important is that you are happy now," Suleiman said as he seemed like he is telling truth for the first time. He took a necklace from the box that he made specially for me and placed it on my neck.

When I went to sit back next to Valide, Suleiman went to stand next to Hurrem and they both seemed to be very happy. Suleiman placed his hand in front of Hurrem and she placed his hand into her.

"I have very big announcement on this day. I legitimate married Hurrem Sultan, which is from this day my legal wife," Suleiman said proudly and Hurrem still couldn't hide so much happiness from her face.

"Congradulations, I hope this will be good for everyone," I said and smiled to Hurrem, but everyone else was shocked. I couldn't but not to laugh at Valide's face as she was so shocked and disappointed. Hatice was also very surprised and Mahidevran seemed like she will faint any moment.

"Thank you Fahriye, Valide won't you congradulate to us?" Suleiman asked as we all turned to Valide who was really shocked, but everyone else was also. I knew Suleiman freed Hurrem as I suggested her to make good things, but I didn't know he would marry her and I was really happy for this marriage especially for Hurrem who loved him so much.

"I will never accept this. It is not allowed for you to marry slaves!" Valide yelled and Sahuban tried to calm her down but she was also very surprised and had no idea how this happened.

"I freed Hurrem, and from now on she is my Haseki Sultan. I don't care if none of you will approve it but I am Sultan and everyone will obey my rules," Suleiman said.

After everything that happened and whole Palace went into total chaos, it was finally the time to sit in the carriage that would take me to my new Palace. I was the only one together with Hurrem who was happy on this day while everyone else was desperate and shocked and I couldn't stand being more time in that Palace.

I walked inside the Golden Palace, new Palace which was quite close to my old Palace, and which was appointed to me and Osman. It was palace which my late father built, but sadly he died before the Palace was built totally. As Suleiman knew father loved me a lot he decided to give me this Palace.

I walked upstairs to the chambers where Osman was awaiting for me. I was trembling as I couldn't believe this day would finally happen. I walked inside to the chambers where Osman was awaiting for me and he couldn't hide this smile from his face anymore.

"I can't believe this day has finally came," Osman said removing the veil from my head.

"We can finally be together, without anyone banishing us from," I said as my eyes couldn't do anything but look at his eyes which I was crazy for.

We couldn't wait for a moment more before Osman's hand placed on my cheeks and he took me into a passionate kiss legally for the first time.
