My head hurted so much , and my eyes felt so heavy that i could barely open them .
Everything in front of me was blurry and my eyes were just blinking .
" where am I " i said in a weak voice feeling so numb .
A doctor rushed to my side and immediately put her hand in my forehead .
" Sofia hatun ,glad you gained consciousness " she said touching the hand that was resting on the bed .
I then just remembered what happened , the snake that bit me . I looked over to my leg and it was a bit swollen and the area was all covered with patches .
" you could've died , you were lucky " she said to me flashing a warm smile .
" I want to see my friend " i said weakly and the doctor immediately nodded and rushed outside .
I closed my eyes meanwhile ,i tried to move my leg and it hurted a little bit .
" Sofia " i heard nadia'a voice from.very far , she rushed to my side and took a seat next to me
" I was so scared something would happen to you " she said with so much emotions making me chuckle .
" How can i die and leave you alone " i laughed it off to not make her worried about me
" Look i am fine i just need some rest and i'll be fine " i explained to her and she didn't seem to get convinced .
" I am personally gonna take care of you " she said eyeing the doctor who was standing just few steps away .
" Just go back to your work nadia ,you shouldn't worry about me i'm fine " i reassured her by giving her a light tap on her arm but she didn't seem to be convinced
I knew she was stressed with all the work and i didn't want her to get worried about me too .
" I'm okay i promise you , i'll be fine " i said one last time before someone entered the room . I looked towards the door and there stood mehmed .
The kalfa and nadia stood up and bowed to him .
" You can all go " he ordered them and waited until we were alone then aporoached me .
" How many times are you gonna save me " i asked as he took a seat at the end of my bed .
" Forever , whenever you are in danger i'll always be next to you " he said grabbing on my hand tightly , after his words i felt super shy .
" You know that there is no way that snake landed there right " he said after thinking for some moments .
I didn't really think about it ,but it just hit me . That he was right , the harem was way far from the garden or any door who led outside the palace .
" I will find whoever was behind this don't worry " he said reassuring me with a smile .
" i don't wanna stay here anymore , i just wanna leave with you " i said in a sad tone making him grab my other him and joined them together .
" Once our work is done in the capital we'll leave don't worry " he placed a kiss on my left hand and then put it down
" Now i want you to focus on your recovery " he said getting up , i was sad he was gonna leave right now .
" Stay more " i said reaching out for his hand , my gesture immediately made him smile .
" i have some work to do with my brother mustafa , don't worry i will visit you again " he got closer and put a light kiss on my forehead before heading towards the door .
After he left i started thinking about what the snake thing , who would want to hurt me ? I didn't have problems with anyone .
I kept thinking about that matter until my eyes closed taking me to another dimension .
After two weeks 🌙
It was my last day here in the infirmary , it was finally the day of my discharge . It took my longer than what i excpected but the venom stayed a long time in my body that it had to be all out of it .
A kalfa helped me walk towards the harem and the second i made it the second all girls came towards me .
" Sofia are you alright " they all asked worriedly and i reassured all of them that i was doing great .
I got pulled out of the crowd by sumbul who took me to the side .
" Hurrem Sultan wants to see you " he said grabbing my arm dragging me with him towards hurrem sultan's room .
I didn't even have the chance to breathe after my discharge yet she called me first .
We got in without permission and my eyes landed first on nadia who was massaging hurrem sultan's hands . I bowed to her in respect and then called me to come closer to her
I walked a bit closer and looked at her in the eyes .
" I hope this gave you a lesson " she said giving me her biggest grin .
" I don't understand " i said dumbfounded then stared at nadia who looked as shocked as me .
" The snake , i put it there so it would be a lesson for you to not put your eyes on the sultan ever again " what she just said shaked me from the reality .
Was she really thinking like this ? Did she really think i was in love with the sultan or whatever ?
" I was gonna die " i said seriously making her laugh for some seconds .
" That was the point but my brave son pitied you " her words angered me so much i wanted to punch her so bad .
" Sultana , i do not have any intentions to steal the sultan away from you . He's the age of my father i was sent forcibly " i said making her look up with a questionable face .
" What are you saying " she said feeling dissapointed then yelled at sumbul to come towards her .
I exchanged looks with nadia and it was obvious she was as angry as me.
" Who sent her ? " she yelled at sumbul who stood next to me .
" I -i don't know the orders came right from nigar " he barely could speak from the stress .
" Call her for me right away " hurrem sultan stood up furiously pushing nadia's hand away
" You go away " she said ordering me but i just stood there .
" You almost killed me for something i didn't do i will not stay shut about it " i finally let out what was in my chest and she looked at me angrily .
" You still don't know who you're dealing with"she yelled at me again then sumbul grabbed my forearm and dragged me out
" You will all pay for this " i yelled at sumbul who sighed in annoyance .
" You can't do anything to our sultana or even me you'll just try in vain and nothing will work , you will shut up and forget what happened " he said quietly in a threateming tone , his finger was right infront of my face .
" After you tried to kill me you excpect me to stay calm " i laughed for some seconds before grabbing his finger and putted it down
" I am not like other girls , the day will come where i will crush you all " i said walking angrily past him .
I felt so angry and had the urge to break this palace on their heads , they played with my life .
