Our three days wedding was over and it has been very chaotic and beautiful if it was not for esmehan and turhan being around .

I asked selim so many times if she was going to stay here but he always said he didn't know . i just wanted her gone because she always provoked me in some way .

Today was obviously going to be boring since my mother went back home yesterday and mihrimah was too busy with her daughter .

in these three days i just noticed that there were to men directing the harem , mercan and sumbul and not gonna lie sumbul was more fun and active .

Sumbul was now standing infront of my door with his back to me as he let in bunch of girls who stood next to each other inside my room

"Sumbul why are these girls here ?" i stood up from my seat and approached them .

"Our beautiful sultana , these girls were sent to you for you to pick one to be your personal maid" It's like he read my mind because i wanted one .

" Was it your idea" i asked him as i looked at the girls one by one .

"Of course sultana , i want you to feel comfortable " he walked towards the first girl and fixed her posture before looking at me .

My eyes stopped when i spotted a girl between them , she looked very beautiful and innocent

"what's your name" i asked as i got close to her .

" My name is aynur your highness" she answered with her eyes fixed on the floor .

"Great sumbul im gonna keep her" i looked over at sumbul who nodded before dismissing the other girls .

the girls was still standing infront of me until i offered her a seat she hesitated to take at first .

"Hope you're not sad about me wanting you , but don't worry i'm not very demanding" i teased her as she grabbed her dress nervously

"No no sultanim why would i be sad , it's an honour to be able to serve your highness" she quickly answered me and i laughed near the end of her sentence .

"I'm just kidding , get used to me being like this" i tapped her shoulder amusingly before i told her to choose more loyal girls to serve me .

" I think you know many girls obviously , i trust your choice don't disappoint me"

"Don't worry sultana i will choose carefully" she answered and bowed down before i dismissed her .

my door opened again but this time it wasn't aynur it was sah sultan coming in , i stood up out of respect and bowed down to her .

« How are you , feeling better ? » she asked me before she broke the distance between us .

« I am good sultana thank you » i answered but she didn't seem satisfied , she had an annoyed look in her face .

« I am here to talk to you about something that you done that bothered me » her eyes narrowed and for the first time i sensed this aura coming out from her .

« I want you to get something straight to your head and i better not repeat it again » her voice got deeper and her tone got threatening.

« This is the last time you'll say something uneducated or provoke esmehan in any way » my eyes were focused on her for some moments before i could answer .

« Sultana you should first hear both versions because esmehan was the one who disrespected me first » i tried to sound as calm as possible when replying .

« It doesn't matter and i don't care , know your limits with my daughter and me . it's not because i made you come here that you'll start doing whatever you want » my patience was holding on for its dear life .

i breathed in and out trying to keep my composure as i waited for her to finish .

« You know that i can easily put esmehan instead of you , don't test me » this was way a different version of sah sultan i've never seen .

« Sultana, i know exactly what i said and i have way more power than your daughter. i all not like akça , i will not tolerate you yelling at me , because i will give you a harsher answer probably not with words » I confidently answered back while looking straight into her eyes .

« What is this insolence ? no wonder why you're ibrahim's daughter » her look said it all , she disliked us because me and my father shared almost all of our traits .

« Next time , esmehan should respect me too if she wants me to respect her in exchange . i am not one of your servants to control me » i added but with that i felt pain in my cheek and my face facing the other side of my room .

She slapped me .

« Maybe this will give you some sense of reasoning » i turned around to look at her and i could easily feel my face burning from humiliation .

« Remember this sultana , the tables will soon turn around and you'll regret touching me » i exhaled angrily as i fixed my posture making her chuckle .

« Leave my daughter alone » with that she left my room and i stayed there standing at the door .

i don't know what kind of bullshit esmehan told her but i was gonna make them both pay for this . the slap felt like it was esmehan's not her mother's .

i was going to make them pay , both of them . but i was not gonna tell selim about this , last thing he needs to hear is this .
