Captured 6 castles as Independent, decided to ally with faction temporarily and then left their service. Lost ALL of my castles as a result?!

I'm blown away that this is real. I spent hours in this game sieging castles as an independent before deciding to temporarily ally myself with a faction to help destroy my enemies. I noticed that all of my lands that I SINGLEHANDEDLY CONQUERED now became apart of the faction I allied with.

But what I didn't know is that if you leave the service, you lose EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF LAND. Doesn't matter if you singlehandedly conquered it, nope, all of your lands go to that faction. In other words, hours of my life were wasted away only to be given away to a fucking King. I put 300+ troops into those garrisons and now NOTHING. It's all gone, all because I wanted to conspire with another King to wipe out my nemesis faction, which should be a POSSIBILITY IN A POLITICAL FANTASY GAME.

Somebody please tell me there's hope to save my castles as independent. I will download mods, I will use cheats, edit the game files, anything to keep those castles I spent hours of strategy besieging only to be inherited by some shitlord of a King.
