Azize

Azize and Kartal trust and take a liking to each other as they live together. Azize is obliged to stay at the house and inform Barbaros about The Alpans if she wants her brother to live. However, Balkan gets better and he is going to wake up soon. If he opens his eyes, he will tell Azize has tried to kill him. Azize has to choose between her own life and her brother's. Just like Azize, Kartal is also overwhelmed by feelings he doesn't want to confess even to himself.

As Azize tries to stay at The Alpans house as long as she can for her brother, Balkan recalls Azize was the one who stabbed him. Just as he attempts to hurt Azize, Kartal saves her and takes her away. Now, they are in a cottage away from all troubles. Kartal doesn't let Azize go without learning the reason why Azize wants to stay. Whereas Azize hesitates to confess, she realizes how much she trusts Kartal. Kartal may be the only one who can help her.

On her road for revenge, Azize realizes that the only obstacle she cannot overcome is Balkan. No matter how she tries to resist, she feels that her heart drags her towards Kartal. It's the same with Kartal, too. For the first time, Kartal and Azize take a step to know each other acknowledging that they have feelings for one another. With Iskender's death, Kartal has got rid of the bump in the road. However, Zeynep, who has been considered dead for eighteen years, comes back home and upsets the balances. Zeynep has the power of Iskender, the rage of Balkan and the intelligence of Kartal. She poses the biggest threat to Azize. Adnan finds out the truth about Kuzey and it causes Yildiz and Tuna to face each other. Apparently, this is not going to end with just a discussion but at least one of them will be hurt seriously.
