I woke up hearing multiple knocks on Murad's door, not wanting to intrude his slumber, I gently released myself from Murad's grip.I quietly opened the door catching sight of a panicked Maria.
"Maria, what are you doing here this early?" I asked confused
"Meleksima, come with me, it's very important," She said hurriedly
"Alright give me a minute," I said receiving a soft nod, before closing the door, I grabbed my coat. before making my way toward a sleeping Murad
I couldn't help but smile hearing his steady breaths, I softly creased his cheeks, giving him a delicate kiss on his forehead, before making my way back to Maria.
"Come on," I said heading toward my chambers with Maria.

3rd pov~All the girls were having breakfast and chattering with each other
"Did you hear what happened last night?" asked one of the girls, taking hold of both Meleksima and Maria's attention as they reached the harem entrance
Meleksima slowly stepped closer wanting to listen to what they were saying despite Maria's protest.
"Valide sultan was furious at Haci aga when she found out that Meleksima hatun stopped hünkârım's party." she continued
"What did you expect her to do, Meleksima has crossed the line," said another.
"But didn't Kösem sultan do the same thing years ago with Sultan Ahmet?" asked another
"That's exactly why Valide sultan feels intimidated by Meleksima, she sees her old pure self in her," she said earning numerous agreements
" the only difference between them is that Valide sultan is intimidated to lose power, while Meleksima is frightened to lose her love" she continued laughingly causing the girls to laugh
Meleksima was about to announce her presence but Maria "Calm down, don't let their words get to you, what's important is what you know not what they think" Maria affirmed with gentle eyes
"I'm sure that Meleksima won't last long, valide sultan will get rid of her Mark my words, she will get rid of her." said another confidence filling her voice
"Who does she think she is to stop us from serving his majesty? We need to do something about it before it gets out of hand" said another with her back facing me
Meleksima listened to their words, Maria rubbing her arm trying to comfort me,
She stood straight with her head held high as she stepped into the harem with Maria
