We arrived in Topkapi due to Gevherhan and Dilruba's wedding. After three months I finally arrived in Topkapi and I finally had hope I could see my sons.

Osman allowed us to come here only because of rules of marriage and traditions, but Mahfiruz wasn't so happy when she saw us.

I walked to Gevherhan who was getting ready in one of the chambers. I came inside and saw my daughter in beautiful red dress and veil on her head.

" Valide." Gevherhan said as she walked closer to me and kissed my hands, but I saw on her face she is not happy about this.

" My darling, don't be sad on this day, trust me. I met Halit and he is about 20 years old. I talked with him and he is loyal to us. You have nothing to worry about my love." I said as I took her hands into mines.

" Valide what if he won't treat me well? What if he will be bad and only make me sad?" she asked me worriedly.

" You are Sultana by blood. No one can behave bad to you. You always have opinion to divorce. And if he dares to make you cry even once I will kill him by my own hands." I said to her and I could finally see her smiling.

" I will do whatever is needed to turn my husband on our side. He will have to help us to put Mehmed on the throne." Gevherhan said and she finally made me happy as she accepted the wedding.

" My beautiful girl, you are so smart and intelligent. But I will do whatever is needed. Tonight, I will get rid of Osman. He won't be able to see the morning." I said to her and left to the Harem.

Mahfiruz putted giant throne inside the Harem where she was sitting. She was so proud as she is Valide Sultana and we all had to bow to her. I sat next to Halime on sofa while Mahfiruz measured us for the whole time.

Nilufer walked closer and sat on the pillows down on the floor. I know that she must have been successful if she sits here with Mahfiruz.

" This is Nilufer, Osman's favourite. She is pregnant and hopefully we will soon have new heir to the throne, so we won't need your sons, Mahnaz." Mahfiruz said and I was ready to explode on her.

" Don't even dare to talk like this, Mahfiruz. You may be Valide Sultan but you and your son still don't have respect from the army and people." I said and I could see her face expression changing quickly.

Soldiers were against Osman because he killed Mustafa who was heir to the throne. People also weren't so happy because of his rule.

I gathered a lot of soldiers by my side, and I knew I will use them someday to get rid of Osman if my plan doesn't go like it's supposed to be.

" Give me that ring, Mahnaz. I am Valide Sultan and it should be mine." Mahfiruz said as she jealously looked at emerald Hurrem Sultan's ring.

" While you put state in so many troubles and people are dying outside because they don't have food, only thing you care about is the ring?" I asked her and raised my eyebrows.

" Give it to me." Mahfiruz yelled on me.

" Stop being jealous about the ring, Mahfiruz. If it should have been yours you would get it many time ago." I said to her seriously.

" Mahnaz, your sons are in my hands. If you don't give me the ring I swear to you I will kill them." Mahfiruz yelled on me.

" What kind of person can you be when ring has same value to you as life of five innocent boys?" I said as I took ring from my hand. Nothing was more important to me than life of my children. Ring meant nothing to me.

I left the Harem after the ceremony ended and I wanted to see Osman. I knew he hated me but I wish to speak with him at least.

While walking through the Harem hallways, I saw someone is following me. I turned and saw Nilufer who ran closer to me.

" Sultana, I am pregnant with Osman's child, but I want you to know that I am ready to do whatever you ask from me. You saved me from Old Palace and I will be always thankful to you." Nilufer said to me and smiled.

I returned to her with a smile, and took a little bottle from my pocket in my dress.

" You will poison Osman. No one should know for this. I promise you to take care of you and your child after you do this." I said to her and she bowed to me.

This was the poison that I had with myself if one day I would want to kill myself, but that day won't come soon. I will do whatever is important to save my children from this traitor.

Aghas opened to me doors of Osman's chambers and I came inside and bowed to him as the tradition said. Osman was surprised I went to meet him.

"Mahnaz Sultana, did you come here to threat me?" Osman asked me with smirk on his face. I couldn’t believe how he changed so quickly from innocent child to such evil person.

" I never wanted to threat you or mean something bad towards you. You were the one who looked at me and my children as your enemies." I said to him trying to show me as innocent. Osman just laughed at my words.

" I know you will do whatever is needed to put Mehmed on the throne instead of me. I am sure about it. You don't want me to rule." Osman said and walked closer to me. I could see so much hate in his eyes.

" I don't want to put him on the throne instead of you. You are Sultan and no one can change this. Only thing I want for my children is to be safe." I said and looked down at the floor.

" Your children will be safe, but I don't know about Mehmed. You won't be able to put him on the throne." Osman said and I looked at him immediatley. What should this mean?

" What are you talking about?" I asked him as I was ready to fight whole world if he dares to do anything to him.

" Go on the Square of Palace and find out there." Osman said seriously and I left his chambers without even bowing to him.

I had bad feeling about all of this and my heart was so weak at this moment. I ran there and I saw lot of janissaries around. They bowed when they looked at me.

They moved to right and left side and on the floor I could see Mehmed's lifeless body.

" Mehmed!" I screamed as my heart broke when I saw dead body of my first son and my first child on the floor.

With Mehmed I learned how it's to be mother. My Mehmed never has done anything bad to deserve this. My Mehmed didn't deserve to be killed by his traitor step brother.

After losing Ahmed, seeing my child dead made my heart empty. Nothing could ever compare to the pain of losing a child.

I didn't want to give them Mehmed's body. I couldn’t realise I will never again be able to hear him calling me mother.

" Sultana, what is your order?" Celal Paşa, one of Ahmed's loyal viziers which was also loyal to me asked.

I took a deep breath to get my strength and decided to do what was the best for the future of my children.

" Get me Osman's head." I said.
