Chapter 47HabbabI stop in front of the imposing Arslan mansion, and a wave of emotions engulfs me. It feels like light-years have passed since the day I left this place, even though only six months have actually gone by. Apprehension grows inside me, not having the slightest idea of what awaits me behind those doors.Ahmet summoned me for a special meeting, sending me a letter claiming to have information about Melek. My heart burns with fury at the mere possibility that Ahmet might have been the one who ended Melek's life. If that turns out to be true, I won't rest until he pays for his crime.However, I also feel some disappointment in how little Derya revealed to me. All she told me was that Ahmet has a safe house on the outskirts of the city, in the countryside, and that she once overheard him mention Melek's name, speaking of her as if she were alive. These words have given me a glimmer of hope, the hope that Melek, the love of my life, is still alive.But I know I can't let my
Anguish overwhelms me, but I also feel a strong determination. Melek is alive, and I will get her back, no matter the cost. I have to hold back the urge to cry just from seeing her face. But I also feel hatred towards that man mocking us like a maniac."You have no scruples, Ahmet," I say with restrained fury. "But I warn you, this won't end the way you think. If you lay a hand on her, I will kill you. I will make you pay."I continue staring at Ahmet, the burning rage and determination within me. "If anything happens to Melek, I assure you, you will pay for it. There will be no place where you can hide from my wrath," I warn him firmly.Hazar joins my words, his eyes filled with determination. "If you harm my daughter, you will face the consequences. No matter how much time it takes, I will search for you to the ends of the earth."Ahmet just laughs, as if our threats were a joke. He calmly returns to the chair behind his desk and crosses his legs with an air of superiority."Do you
Chapter 48HabbabI feel frustrated, not knowing how to rescue Melek without losing my money and without killing the grandmother... It's complicated. I'm about to get into my car when Hazar slams the door shut, making me jump in fright."What are you doing, Hazar? We don't have time to waste; we need to find a way to save Melek without killing anyone," I say, a little angry.But instead of talking about Ahmet and his demands, Hazar surprises me with an unexpected question. "Tell me the truth, Habbab. Could Ahmet be right? Could Melek really be pregnant?"The question catches me off guard, and I feel a knot in my throat. I can't believe I have to answer to him right now. It's strange because he is my biological father, but he's also Melek's father since he raised her. And now, I have to face the father of the woman who might be pregnant out of wedlock... Great."I don't know," I answer honestly, "it could be true. Melek and I have been together, and I don't remember if we took precauti
I drive towards my house, having decided that I need Erdem to figure out what to do from now on, with worry still clouding my mind. Hazar is beside me as the co-pilot, and I can feel his scrutinizing gaze on me. An idea is crossing his mind, and I'm waiting for him to speak it out. Before he can say anything, he breaks the silence."Do you know where Derya Arslan is?" Hazar asks seriously.I feel uneasy at his question, but I know I can't hide the truth. "Yes, she's at my house," I confess finally.Hazar looks surprised and, at the same time, angry. "How can you have that woman in your house after all she's done?"I try to explain quickly, knowing I need his understanding. "She showed up yesterday asking for help. She said she knew something about Melek's death. She suspected that Ahmet was behind it, and I've had the same suspicion for months. I wanted to confirm my theory to go after him. That's why I let her stay."Hazar furrows his brow, clearly worried and upset. "Maybe Derya is
Chapter 49HabbabI find myself in my office, exhausted and worried. It has been twelve hours since Ahmet gave me the 48-hour deadline to hand over the money and rescue Melek. The lack of sleep overnight and the uncertainty about what to do have left me overwhelmed.In the midst of my thoughts, the door to my office opens, and Erdem enters with a smile on his face."Habbab, I have good news," he says enthusiastically.I look up, hopeful, and ask, "What have you found?"Erdem takes a seat in front of me and continues, "Remember I was investigating Ahmet and his properties. I found something that might interest you. Ahmet has a cabin on the outskirts of the city, and it's the only property registered under his name."My eyes light up with hope that this lead might help us find Melek. "Do you think it could be the place where they are holding Melek hostage?"Erdem nods seriously. "It's possible. The cabin is quite isolated, and it has been a well-kept secret. There could be more to it th
LeaI watch as my husband's betas change, ready to attack me, I'm not going to let them, I need to rescue Enzo and bring him back. Bear also changes and does his best to get between me and the wolves, but there are too many of them and even though he is a huge bear, even bigger than them, he won't be able to take them down."Shit Osiris, I can't stop the spell." I tell him mentally, still chanting"Lea, you have to, this is unnatural, you're endangering the balance of nature. Stop it now.""Screw you, I'm not going to let Enzo die.""Lea, Enzo is already dead..."An indescribable fury grows inside me. No, I won't accept it, that my Enzo is dead, I won't allow it. Osiris is a coward who probably only wants the alpha's position. I am angry with him and with all those who came to support him, none of them want Enzo, otherwise they would be happy, they would support me and they would understand that I and also the pack need their alpha back.Without stopping reciting the spell, I create a
Chapter 4DaphneI should have asked Kate to take out the trash.Then she could have dealt with this strange guy who claims to be my partner. I mean, come on. A partner? It sounds so primal and barbaric. Like I have no say in the matter.Although, if I'm being honest, it doesn't sound too bad… I keep feeling this strange attraction to him. The feeling of being drawn to him when I first saw him lying injured in the dumpster is even stronger now. It's taking hold of me.“What did you say your name was?” I ask as I look at him differently.“I didn't say it. My name is Armel, but people close to me call me Army.“I can't imagine why you get that.” He actually laughed at that.“And you?” “I'm Daphne.” I say in a shy voice.“Daphne.” He whispers as she looks at me with those deep blue eyes. I feel my cheeks blush under the intensity of them.“So, then I'm going to call you Army.” I told him, “I like it, it sounds like danger, and not that I like danger, but I l don’t know... Army is origi
Chapter 3ArmelA loud moan comes out of me as I close my eyes and let the hot water wash over my face.This has to end.It's a never-ending hell. Destroying one city after another. Tearing my body apart. Bringing danger wherever I go.I don't even know where I am now.I turn my head and force my eyes open. A pink towel. More beauty products than I can count piled around the small sink. A small pair of bunny-shaped slippers by the door.The memory comes back, but it's foggy and full of holes. I remember climbing into the dumpster and passing out. Then, the bright light as someone opened the door. Stumbling up the steps. A smell that was like fire in my lungs. I had lost a lot of blood and was very weak. I didn't know what was happening.“Fuck.” I wince as I pick up the soap with my wounded arm, and a bolt of pain flashes through me. I'm going to kill that fucking Frenchman with his own sword.No. He's just doing his job. He's doing what's right. He's doing what you're too cowardly to
Chapter 2Daphne“Stop eating the fries!” Pete shouts as he tries to hit my hand with his greasy spatula. I'm too fast for the grumpy chef.“Last one.” I say with a wide grin as I shove the hot french fry in my mouth. “I promise.” We both know, it won't be the last.This failing restaurant doesn't do a lot of things right, but even I have to admit they know how to make crispy, delicious fries.“Yeah, Sure.” Pete grumbles as he walks over to the grill. I snatch another one from his as he turns his back to me.Kathy laughs. “Do you have a death wish or something?” “It's worth the risk.” I say with a groan as I swallow the delicious fry. “It's one of the perks of working at the best restaurant in Timberville.”“It's only a restaurant.” She says as she cleans up the plastic menus, “Why did you move back here?” I sigh as I pick up the coffee pot. “I wonder every day.”She laughs as I make my way to the table area, smiling at all the regulars as I refill their coffee cup after cup.There
Chapter OneArmel “Timberville, Montana!” shouts the driver as the commercial truck comes to a stop.I sigh as I look at the old, worn sign with the town's name barely visible behind the peeling paint and faded old graffiti.Is this town going to be safe?I nod as I realize that no town is safe for me. Not when the greatest danger lurks inside my body. With a heavy breath, I rise from the large bags of rice I've slept on all night and jump off the back cabin of the truck. I jumped in the past night without the guy to notice.My grizzly bear growls inside me as I head into the forest.“Hey!” the drivers yells, “Get away from my truck! Damn hobo.”I don't turn around. For his protection, I lower my head and hurry to the colorful tree line. It's a beautiful fall day, but this is no time to admire the autumn leaves.My bear growls inside. He paces angrily. I know what's coming and I want no part of it. I'm sure the good people of Timberville, Montana, don't either.“Keep your cool.” I wh
I call my men and ask them to prepare a special dinner. It will take place in five nights, right on the anniversary of Melek and Habbab's wedding. This will be an unforgettable occasion, not only to celebrate that union, which was a complete farce, but also to reveal the last secrets that have been hidden for too long. My heart beats with excitement as I meticulously plan every detail. This dinner will be more than just a gathering; it will be a feast of truth, where everyone will learn the complete story of Derya Arslan and Çakir Erdoğan. I will tell everyone why Derya decided to seek revenge and ruin the lives of the Erdoğan family. The truth will come to light, and everyone will know that her intentions were entirely personal; she never thought about the well-being of her family. Derya's revenge has left a trail of pain and destruction, and it's time for everyone to know. I can't allow her to continue manipulating others and escaping the consequences of her actions. Melek, Habbab
Chapter 52Derya ArslanI'm pacing around my room, eagerly waiting for news from Habbab and Ahmet. I feel helpless and very angry because my revenge plan didn't unfold as I wished. Everything has been ruined by that Melek, because Habbab fell in love with her. Now, I find myself a prisoner of my own grandson, Habbab, and I must hide from my other grandson, Ahmet, who wants to see me dead.The courage and determination that drove me to devise my revenge plan seem to fade in the face of this complicated situation I'm in now. I wonder how everything could have gone wrong, how Melek could have touched Habbab's heart and changed everything.It's hard to accept that my grandson, whom I raised and taught to be strong, is protecting the very person who ruined my plans. The daughter of our enemy. I should have known better; planning the fake marriage between Habbab and Melek wasn't the best decision I made. I should have come up with another plan to hurt Hazar and Çakir.It was also not a good
I watch as Senay, Hazar, and Melek walk towards the house, leaving the beautiful garden behind them. In that moment, something wonderful happens. Gul, Melek's sweet little 9-year-old sister, comes running out of the house. Her eyes sparkle with excitement, and she jumps onto Melek, hugging her tightly. "I knew it! I knew in my heart that you'd come back!" Gul exclaims with a radiant smile.Melek looks at her affectionately and asks, "Did you really know, Gul?"The little girl nods excitedly, "Yes, everyone said you were gone, but I knew it was a lie. I always knew my sister was still alive.""It's true, Melek. Gul always refused to believe you were gone," says Senay, smiling at her two daughters. "I should have believed her, to know that she had a feeling you were okay.""Mom, don't worry, I'm here now." Melek responds and then embraces her little sister tenderly, "Thank you, Gul. I love you so much, and I promise I won't leave you again."Gul smiles widely and then notices my presenc
Chapter 51HabbabWe arrived at the village of Hazar, a peaceful place far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Melek comments with a smile softened by relief, "I'm glad that my fake death was the reason you finally moved out of Çakir's house, Dad. Now we can all be together here."Hazar sighs and looks at me with gratitude. "Yes, Melek, I deeply regret not having taken you out of Çakir's clutches earlier. I thought he would change at some point, that he would love you as his own granddaughter, but I was wrong. Forgive me for not doing it faster."Melek gently squeezes her father's hand. "I don't want to dwell on the past anymore, Dad. We are together now, and that's what matters. Let's make this place our home and build a future together."Hazar smiles affectionately and nods. "You're right, my dear. I am very happy to have you back in my life, and I promise to protect and care for you always. Nothing and no one will separate us again."Taking her hand, Hazar leads Melek towa
