Chapter 7 Habbab Before I close the last button of my shirt, my eyes get caught by the glow of my mother's ring hanging from my throat, resting on my chest, so close to my heart and yet so far away. I miss my mother, every day that passes, I imagine growing up by her side, being in a happy family, without tragedy and pain broke our souls. I wonder what would become of my life right now if my mother were still alive, maybe I wouldn't be about to hurt a woman who doesn't deserve it. I’m about to break her too. “I hope someday you can forgive me, Melek.” I pray to nothingness because I seriously don't want to hurt that little girl who hopes to find a hero in me. She longs for someone to love her, and save her from the family hell she lives in, very soon she will realize that it's not me and that will end up crushing her heart. The faint glow of my mother's ring reminds me that I can't feel sorry for that girl, no one did for my mother, it's time for me to take revenge and end it all.

Chapter 7 / Part Three Cakir wrinkles his face but says nothing in front of me, I have seen them argue many times before and I am sure he does not want to make it a habit, there is a lot of money between the two of us and we both know it. Hazar leaves to look for his daughter, Cakir apologizes and leaves, but not before inviting me to go to one of the living rooms, to wait for my girl. Twenty minutes go by when finally, my eyes meet Melek's. "I hear you want to take me on a date, are you serious?" she asks with excitement shining in her eyes. "Yes, it's completely true, shall we go? They're waiting for us." She turns to look at her father expectantly, waiting for the go-ahead. "Go quietly, my daughter, it's me who is giving you the permission to go, don't worry about anything." "Thank you, Father." She gives him a huge hug and then turns to me, I hold out my hand and she accepts it, I think it's the first time we hold hands, after the commitment ceremony. "Have fun," Hazar says

Chapter 8 / Part TwoI leave the Erdoğan mansion and head for my car, open the door and someone slams it too violently. I turn around to yell at my assailant to fuck off and I find Esat Erdoğan, Melek's cousin."What the fuck is wrong with you?" I yell at him, stepping back to face him."What's wrong with me is that you're going to ruin this family. You think by putting my grandfather on an edge you're going to protect Melek? I should be the one asking you, what the fuck is wrong with you, Argent?""I don't have to explain myself to a spoiled brat like you. Now, get out of my way, you good for nothing.""You don't have to explain yourself to me? Do you have the slightest idea what Melek lives in this house? My grandfather beats her every day since you came into our lives." He shoved me by the shoulder and I laughed sarcastically."Don't ever touch me again. Next time you do, you'll lose the hand you touch me with." He shakes his head, from one side to another, looking indignant at m

Chapter 9 / Part OneHabbabThe first rays of the sun came to my eyes and that's when I woke up, today would be my wedding day and I was not very happy about it, just like the first wedding I had with Enise. At least this time it is my decision, not for love, but for a stronger feeling than that. The doors to my room opened and my grandmother came in, as always with her serious and royal way of walking. She sat on my bed, right next to me, she was smiling, just like that day when I swore I would take revenge."Finally, the day has come dear grandson." Her hands caressed my face "Today is the day we will get the justice we have fought so hard for."Yes, Grandma. "I gave her a weak smile trying to keep the feelings of guilt aside. "Grandma, do you think after everything is over, the revenge is taken, we can help Melek? Get her out of the country maybe?"She grimaced at my request. "You are the same eleven year old boy who so long ago vowed to seek justice for his family, you had a noble

Chapter 9 / Part ThreeWe looked at each other and I gave her a kiss on the forehead, then looked at those present as I vowed to myself that I would achieve my task, whatever it took, I was going to avenge my mother's dishonor, what they did to my family. We had rented a mansion for the party and civil ceremony, we arrived and shared our personal vows in front of everyone."You look beautiful, I swear in front of everyone present that you will always remember this day and also me, in every second of your life, I will be present.""I will look for you in all my lives" She kissed my hands lovingly. "Each one of them you are going to have me there, loving you with the same intensity or maybe not, every day this feeling grows in my chest to a point that it is not going to be enough for just one life."Melek was a very beautiful woman with a good soul, I thought so at the time, but then I remembered my goal and I knew well that I could not fail my grandmother. My goal was always to make Me
