TW: SACressida I shrieked the moment I felt someone bury their fist in my hair and pull me up from the ground harshly. I rapidly started blinking to get rid of the sleeplessness but feeling someone tie my hands behind my back had me remembering where I was again which had me search for Savaş, even though someone besides the person grabbing me placed a tape over my mouth, taking away my ability to speak."For safety measures we had to take him out of here before you, no need to keep on being a little slut for him, Ida." Frozen. That's exactly how I felt.Noah. That voice belonged to Noah. He was my friend and now he… who was he? How could he talk to me that way? How dare he call me that as if I'm nothing. I groaned through the tape while squirming in an attempt to get away from him but he suddenly was in front of me and I barely registered what happened before I felt a sting on the side of my face that had my head turned to the side.He slapped me. That son of a bitch slapped me.

DanteThrough my entire life, I made lots of mistakes and formed way too many enemies but it never crossed my mind that it would affect my only child and wife but it did.My mistakes came back to haunt me the moment Deniz died while trying to protect Savaş -our son- knowing damn well that it would cost her life but she was always that way… it was what made me love her in the first place, her selfless and loving nature had me captured the moment I met her.She and I both knew I wasn't a decent man yet she still let me into her life until I managed to have her love me and there were moments in my life where I thought that I was way too cruel to have her by my side, too cruel for her pure heart but the moment Savaş was born and I saw her holding him and staring him down with unconditional love.The moment she looked away from him and her gaze settled on me, full of love, passion and trust… I just knew it would be impossible for me to let her go but life was never fair to me… ever.One bu

TW: Organ Trade.Cressida It felt like I was back there, back to those times where I had to be the strongest, where I had to pretend that I wasn't scared shit less of those gaurds.Back to a time where an eight years old had to tell her twin brother that she'll protect him when she knew damn well that if it came down it, she would try to protect him and probably die doing so but that wouldn't have meant she would be the one who saved… if he got saved at all.To look into that man's eyes opened back a part of my memories that I just now realised… I had closed. I did it. I chose to forget rather than facing my fears but what else would eight years old me would have done? No matter how many tough act one can play, there would always be a moment where your heart would be beating so loudly and intensely that you can feel it in your ears, your brain going into overdrive, a part of it wishing to just doze off until the danger is gone, another part only longing for the truth but all of tha

Savaş"Cressida, come on baby stay with me." I whispered beside her ear as I was running alongside the nurses and doctors that surrounded us, rushing Cressida to the operation room.My blood ran cold the moment she let out that one small weak smile, the same way my mother did before she… No. No! No it's not the same because Ida won't die, she wouldn’t leave me. I know her, she won't leave me or Jack or anyone who she loves.My Ida wouldn’t want to make us this sad. She loves us, she loves… me. She fucking admitted the she loves me seconds before she collapsed.How dare she? How dare she do that to me? She doesn’t get to do that, not after everything I've done, she doesn't get to make me feel guilty more than I already do!"Ida, I love you too. You know I do, You always knew so come on stay with me and I'll say it as much as you want me to… I'll say it all day and night if you want me to, just… just come back to me, please." Tears blurred my vision. I never cried, barely did at my mot

CressidaMy muscles felt like they were on fire when I started regaining consciousness, body hurting like a bitch. I started opening my eyes slowly, trying to force myself to adjust to the many lights around me, hospital lights no doubt."Cressida." There it was. I would've been surprised if he wasn't beside me and the first to call out my name once I'm awake.So I looked beside me to take a good look at him. He had dark circles beneath his eyes, telling me that he had quiet sleepless nights because of me and even his green eyes looked tired and who could blame him.Both of us suffered way too much till this moment but that face off with Queens was a last straw for everyone. It revealed secrets and brought back some horrifying memories and apparently almost killed me given that I'm still alive."I'll be right back." Talia's voice came from beside me and I saw her move towards the door but she was a blur when all I could see was Savaş, the man I thought wouldn't see again because deat

Cressida"Why are we here?" I questioned the man who was pulling me with him after taking us into this abandoned warehouse. There were tables everywhere full of knives and what looked like torturing tools… what the hell was this place?"You'll see, Güzel." He declared to me before we came to a stop in the middle of the warehouse, like we were waiting for something and deep down, I think I knew why we were here…If I know Savaş which I believe I do then there was no way he let the Queens go which meant he did some unthinkable stuff and maybe it was the Raven's Caw doing something alongside him as well but I didn't think I would even be mad.And I was right because moments later Ace and Oliver came down some stairs in the warehouse, each had one of the two men, pushing them towards us until they were standing right in front of us and hit the back of their knees making them kneel before us."Go on, apologies." Savaş ordered Noah but he was just looking at me, pure hatred covering his fe

Cressida Three Years later "Are you okay?" Ember asked, eyeing me suspiciously and who could blame her because I wasn't exactly fine and while she thought that my kidney was acting up… that wasn't the case. "Yes I'm fine, it's just I still want to kill Oliver for this." I told her and that wasn't a complete lie because I did want to kill him for what he did but I lied because that wasn't why I was bouncing my leg up and down or why I had my face turn pink. Despite the fact that knowing I was Talia's and Oliver's wedding after she was forced to marry him still made my blood boil and I'll be sure to make him pay for it but again that wasn't the case for my situation now. The case was that my husband, being the asshole that we both knew he was, decided that he wanted to play a few days before now and I ended up losing a bet. The bet was that the other can do whatever they want with the other for a full day of their choice and he wanted that day to be today… of all days and also h
