9th Chapter
"My beautiful Mahnaz, who would dare to do something like this to you?" I could hear Ahmed standing next to me while I wake up in infirmary and my whole body hurted me.
" Hunkarim... Mahfiruz slapped me and I fell down... I remember nothing after that." I said to Ahmed anxiously and showed him my sadness and hurt.
" Mahfiruz will pay for this, no one can dare to touch my favourite." Ahmed said and kissed my forehead gently.
At that moment, I felt such a strong pain in my belly. I knew the time for giving birth has come.
"Hunkarim, you must leave the ambulance. Mahnaz Hatun is going to give a birth now." Nurse said and forced Ahmed to go outside.
" Ahmed, stay with me!" I yelled as the pain started to be so strong.
" Sultan can't be here with you, Hatun. Push now!" nurse said to me and I felt such a pain like I have never had before.
Very quickly I could hear first cry from the baby, and all the pain I felt was uncomparable to the moment I heard their cry for the first time.
Ahmed and Handan Sultana came inside followed by Safiye Sultan.
" Hunkarim, congradulations. Twins were born. A Sehzade and a Sultana." nurse said showing my two beautiful babies to Sultan and his mother.
" My Mahnaz, I can't explain to you how happy I am because of this. You made me luckiest man in this world." Ahmed said as he walked closer and took our son into his hands.
" Your name will be Mehmed." Ahmed repeated three times into ears of our son.
Then he came and took our beautiful baby girl which was covered in little pink blanket.
" Your name will be Gevherhan." he repeated three times into her ears and gave the children to me in my arms.
" Congradulations, Mahnaz. You gifted this dynasty with two beautiful children." Handan Sultana said as she gave me huge smile.
" Thank you, Sultana." I smiled to her as I couldn't hide my happiness anymore. I never felt such a moment like this when I could finally have my children in my hands.
" This is for you, my Mahnaz. This is a sign of our dynasty, a tulip is its symbol. When you gave birth to a son and daughter, you are part of our dynasty. You are our Sultana now." Ahmed said and gave me beautiful necklace with tulip sign on it.
I took it and Ahmed putted it around my neck and I couldn't believe this day has finally came.
I took my son Mehmed in my hands while Ahmed was holding Gevherhan in his hands and we were admiring the beauty of our children.
Mehmed looked alike really of Ahmed. He had his eyes, lips and eyebrows.
" Our Gevherhan is going to become a beautiful Sultana like her mother is. Look, she looks the same as you." Ahmed said to me as he showed me how Gevherhan and I look alike a lot.
" I am afraid now, Ahmed." I said to him as nurses putted our children in golden baby cribs to sleep finally.
" You should not be afraid while I am close to you. No one can dare to do anything to you while I am here." Ahmed said and kissed my cheeks gently to show me he is always here for me.
" I am afraid after Mahfiruz did this to me. I am afraid what is she able to do to me." I said to him and showed him my sadness and fear, even though I knew I was the one who provocated Mahfiruz to slap me.
" Mahfiruz will be punished because she did this to my favourite. After that no one will dare to touch you anymore." Ahmed said and gave me a smile.
" What will you do to her?" I asked him with curiosity.
" You will see it soon, my love. But I promise you that I will take care of you with my own life. No one can even say something bad to you anymore." Ahmed said and kissed me once again before he left the ambulance.
" Those are your new chambers, Mahnaz Sultana. Sultan Ahmed gifted you with these." Haci-aga said as he introduced me to my new chambers which were huge.
" We assigned your friends Rosalinda and Daniela to be your servants now to help you to take care of your children. We gave them new names since they started working in Harem now, and they are Aybige and Kalika." Haci aga said and my two best friends came happily inside my chambers and went to my hug.
" Mahnaz, you are a Sultana. I can't believe how cute your babies are." Aybige said after she hugged me and went to see my two angels sleeping peacefully in their cribs.
" I can see your lion Mehmed being Sultan one day and you ruling as Valide Sultana, we will see you very powerful." Kalika said as she smiled when she saw my lion Mehmed.
" That is far away from now, who knows what can happen. I am finally happy with my angels and I am glad you will help me here, because I can't trust anyone else here." I said as I sat on sofa in my chambers.
" We will protect your children even with our own life, you shouldn't worry. Your father helped us when we were no one and gave us a home, of course we will be with you no matter what." Aybige said and smiled to me.
" Now that Kosem should be afraid of you, I heard she locked herself in her chambers and doesn't want to see anyone after she heard you gave birth to a son." Kalika said and laughed.
" As she should, I can't have more threats in Palace. I don't want Kosem to be here, but I know her biggest punishment is that Sultan doesn't care about her anymore." I said and smiled from my heart. Ahmed fell in love with me so quickly that Kosem lost all of the attention she was getting.
" Mahnaz Sultana, Sultan Ahmed wants to see you now in his chambers." Haci aga informed me and I got up immediatley.
" Girls please take care of my angels, I entrust you with them." I said to Aybige and Kalika and left my chambers to see Ahmed.
I stepped inside Ahmed's chambers and I saw Mahfiruze is standing there and anxiously looking at the floor. When she looked at me she gave me so angry look, but then continued to look down at the floor.
" Hunkarim, you called for me?" I said as I bowed to him. It was something weird for me when I saw Mahfiruz is also there, but I hoped it is for something good.
" I wanted that both of you see each other after the incident that has happened." Ahmed said and looked at both of us.
" Mahfiruz, you will beg Mahnaz for forgivness after what you have done to her." Ahmed said and smiled.
Mahfiruz looked at him shocked and couldn't believe she has to do something like this. She looked at me then, and once again at Ahmed in distrust.
" Hunkarim... She provocated me... She started threatening me with Osman and that how I would never become Valide Sultana..." Mahfiruz started saying, but Ahmed signalised her with his hand to stop talking.
" Mahnaz isn't like this, I am sure she would never tell something like this, right Mahnaz?" Ahmed said and turned to me.
" Of course, Hunkarim. I would never say something like this. At the end, who we are to speak about the throne while you are here in front of us? This is obviously something Mahfiruz made up because she wanted to make a reason for hurting me." I lied to Ahmed but I was so good that I would even trust myself on my lies.
" Mahfiruz, beg Mahnaz for forgivness." Ahmed said and turned to Mahfiruz who couldn't believe what Ahmed wants to do.
Mahfiruz continued to look at me and I could feel that she couldn't do this. Ahmed looked at her angrily once again so she must do it.
" I... I beg for your forgivness... " Mahfiruze barely could say and looked at me.
" It is fine now." I said to her and gave her a smile because I knew how hard for her it must have been to do this.
To beg forgivness to favourite woman of her son's father was obviously hard and destroyed her proudness.
" I don't want this ever again to happen. Mahfiruz, if you dare to do something bad to Mahnaz once again I will send you far away and you will not see your son ever again. Fine?" Ahmed said seriously to Mahfiruz who I could see was shaking from fear at the mention of separating from her son.
Mahfiruz just bowed to make him sure that she understood what he has said to her.
" You can return to your chambers now." Ahmed said and smiled after everything was done.
Mahfiruz and I started walking towards the doors, but Ahmed then stopped us.
" Mahnaz, you will stay here with me tonight." Ahmed said and I stayed in the chambers, looking how Mahfiruz looks at me angrily while she leaves his chambers.
