A month have passed since I took Sadika as my servant. In the first time, I was sceptic about her, but the time proved to me that she was loyal.

Silahtar fell in love with her easily. She often served him in his working chambers and that's where she had a chance to be closer with him.

I was really happy about my plan working and it was all going in good way. Silahtar was sending secret letters to Sadika and he was coming more and more often in Palace just because of her.

I needed only one thing left – to make Atike question herself about Silahtar's love. It was known that Silahtar was in love with Gevherhan, but after his marriage with Atike, he gained some emotions towards her. They had one mission together – to make throne free for Suleyman.

Atike was really good friend with Farya and that's why she loved Suleyman a lot. At Farya's death I've promised to take care of Suleyman, but no one gave me even a chance to become close with him or to take care of him.

Only thing they teached Suleyman was to hate me and my children. However much he could hate me, I've never hated him or wanted him anything bad.

He grew up without his mother. No one could make him feel like he has mother next to himself. He didn't have mother to support him through his life, and that's why I was sad.

Unlike Ayse, I didn't look only for the throne. For me it was most important thing that my children are healthy and happy and that I have Murad's love.

I would never do anything bad to any of the Princes. I would never order someone to punish them or even kill them. They were innocent children which were taught bad by their closest ones, Ahmed by Ayse and Suleyman by Atike and Silahtar.

That day, I was sitting in my chambers talking with my daughter Huricihan which grew into very beautiful Sultana and Ismihan which I loved the same way as all my children.

- My girls, your father decided its your time to marry soon. - I told them with a smile. I saw smile in Ismihan's eyes because she hoped she will marry Kasim-paşa, but I couldn't say Huricihan was happy.

- Huricihan, what is wrong? - I asked her. Seeing her sad was making me sad also. She was my first child and my biggest love no matter what.

- Valide, I don't want my father to marry me for some old pasha. - she told me sadly.

- Huricihan, our father would never do that. If you have anyone on your mind, you should tell him, because he will always listen to your wishes first. - Ismihan touched her hand trying to comfort her.

Seeing them two being really good made me feel so happy.

- Huricihan, if you have anyone on your mind who you like you can tell me. I will personally talk to your father about that if its your wish. - I told her.

She looked shy at that moment, but at the end she looked at me straight into eyes.
- Valide, if I can chose, I want Kemankes Mustafa-paşa. - she told me which shocked me totally.

Kemankeş? How did he come inside her head? Out of all young viziers and officiers, she thought about Kemankeş? The same Kemankeş late Kosem Sultana had feelings for, which were both-sided? I couldn't believe what I've heard.

- Huricihan, are you sure about what are you saying? - I asked her as I've felt nervous in that moment.
- Valide, you told me you would allow me to marry whoever I want. And I want to marry Kemankeş. - Huricihan told me proudly like she has never before.

- But, Huricihan, he is lot older than you. - Ismihan said which was shocked in her words the same way I was.

- Valide, Ismihan, I like him for a longer time. If I could chose, he would be the only one I would chose. - she told us. Every her word made me more and more nervous.

- When did you have ability do see him? Or even meet him? - I asked her as I was surprised of her words.
- When I was walking in Gardens, he was always there with our father. Sometimes I saw him alone. I chatted with him a lot. And I don't care if he is older than me, I want to marry him. - she told me.

- Does he know about your wish? - I asked her.
- I think he doesn't. - she told me and looked at the ground.

- Huricihan, don't think I won't support you. I will support you in everything, I was just shocked at first moment. - I told her trying not to make her sad about my words.

- Hoşyar, will father marry me for Kasim-paşa? - Ismihan asked me trying to break the silence.
- I think he will, he will always listen to your wishes. - I told them with a smile.

At that moment, somebody knocked on the doors of my chambers. I let that person in. It was Haci-agha. He signalised me its something important.

- Girls, please return to your chambers. I will talk with your father later about those plans. - I smiled to them as they were leaving my chambers.

When we made sure they left the chambers and none of the maids stayed inside, Haci started to talk.

- Sultana, Sadika Hatun did very good job. She sent you a letter which Silahtar sent her. - Haci told me with excitement and gave me the letter.

Oh, woman from my dreams
Something I've waited for  years
A man like me would never know what happiness is
If I wouldn't met you
You were like a gift from God to me
You are the only reason I breath
And smile everyday
Your touch is only thing I need in my life
After many years of monotonous marriage, you woke up my feelings
You woke up the passion in me
You made me crazy about you
Tommorow I want to meet you
In Secret Gardens
At noon
Only you and me
With lot of love
Only and truly yours
Silahtar

I couldn't believe what I've just read. I wanted my plan to work, but this was even more than it should be. This was perfect.

- Haci-agha, I haven't excepted this. This is even better than we excepted. - I told him as I was really happy about this. And I was really proud of Sadika.

- Sultana, I also couldn't believe. Sadika did very good job. - he smiled to me back.
- I want you to gift her with whatever you want. She deserves everything. - I smiled.

- Sultana, what will we do with the letter? - Haci asked me curiously.
- You will take it. You will go to harem. Atike is today here. You will act strange and like you are searching some woman. Atike will see something is wrong and she will ask you. You will have letter in your hand. You will first try not to give her, but at the end she will take it. And that's how we will do it. - I smiled him.

- What a brilliant idea, Sultana. - Haci smiled to me and I've felt really good at that moment.

I will remove my two enemies with one job.
