It was the most wonderful news I ever heard... pregnant. We were going to have a child! - Behiç Sultan
✧✧✧
"Behiç my beauty, you are pregnant. I will have me first children with you." Sultan Osman said excitedly as he leaned over my bed and kissed my forehead."
"InshAllah it will be a son!" said Sultana Nuray. To be honest, a son or daughter would be fine, since I am ahead of the other girls. I just need to keep it that way. I need to be the one who raises the heir to the throne, the one of whom I will serve as Valide.
But for now, I love Sultan Osman and I plan on staying with him for many years.
As Sultan Osman left the room, his footsteps echoing down the marble hallway, I allowed myself a small smile. I have his heart, and he has mine. Arketá Hatun has nothing on me, nor my future children. She always has, and forever will be, a mere one night stand, worthless like leaves in the wind.
Nobody will get in my path.
I knew that the path to becoming Valide Sultan, the most powerful woman in the empire, would not be easy.
Rival concubines will try and appear, envious eyes, and hidden dangers lurked behind every ornate curtain. They will try and isolate me, put me down, try to throw me out, do every cruel thing anyone can imagine.
But there is hope. With the child growing within me, I had a chance to secure my place, not just as a mother, but as the mother of the future sultan. I would need to be cautious, clever, and above all, patient. God did not just choose anyone for this task, but me: Behiç Hatun. Or now, Behiç Sultan. Animals will roar, thunder come crashing down, but in the end I am the storm.
