Plot
Sila was born in Midyat, Mardin to Celil and Beder. She is later given to a wealthy family in Istanbul by Celil in exchange for money. Celil convinced Beder that Sila had a terminal illness and hence had to be given away.
After many years, Sila, now a 17 year old, lives in Istanbul with her adoptive parents. She is pampered by her parents and has a boyfriend named Emre. In Mardin, Sila's biological brother, Azad, has run away with Narin, the sister of the Genco tribe's leader Boran Agha. When they are caught by Boran, the tribe orders a death sentence on them as per the 'honour code'. However, this is later forgiven as Boran agrees to the Bride exchange ritual, which requires Azad's sister, Sila, to be married to Boran.
Celil and Azad come to Istanbul on the night of Sila's graduation to take her away to Mardin, claiming that her biological mother is very sick and needed to see her before she died. However, in reality she is being deceived to marry Boran. Sila and her adoptive father go to Mardin in order to meet Sila's biological family but later her father has to return for urgent work. Nevertheless, Sila decides to stay a little bit longer as she is thinking that they are celebrating her brother Azad's wedding and her return together. However, on the day of their wedding Azad holds Sila at gunpoint and threatens to shoot her if she does not agree to marry Boran. Fearing for her life, Sila signs the marriage papers. On their wedding night, Sila tells everything to Boran and asks for a divorce. However Boran, knowing the tribe's rules, refuses to annul the marriage. A few days later, Sila's adoptive parents come to Mardin after failing to communicate with her. When they insist Sila to return to Istanbul, she refuses as this could threaten Azad and Narin's lives. Sila and her parents decide to make an escape plan for Sila. However, on returning to Istanbul, her parents die in an accident and Sila has to now remain the wife of Boran.
