I was roaming the palace halls, pretending to be a servant. My heart drummed when I first saw her. Jasmine’s cat-like green eyes haunted me from the moment that I had met her. The new maid in our Saudi palace was everything I had ever dreamed of; a body that made every man kneel, her intelligence was beyond imagination and her passion set my whole world on fire.

Although I knew she truly loved me, her love for me was more like a game of push and pull. She did not wish to marry anyone, and certainly not me. 

Meeting Saphira back home in Malibu USA, had seemed like a welcome distraction. And although I resisted, we had deeply fallen. It was not something I could easily take back... Saphira was not everything that I had once dreamed of, and I certainly did not plan to love her. But I did regardless, irrevocably so. 

My name is Benjamin El-Raji Saud, Prince of Saudi Arabia.  
They say love wasn’t supposed to be easy, I know that now. 
The story of how our love became untangled, was messy and twisted and full of heart ache and betrayal.
I truly did not know how our story would end, but is was ours. 
 
Which ship are you rooting for?

Love Untangled

Benjamin held my hand when Naïma's wedding was performed. Ours went by in a daze as well. At the end of the wedding, the Sultan and his first wife came up to us and presented me this golden bracelet and told me that this is the bracelet which all woman of the Saud family wear. It was beautiful.

There was an Arabic inscription that said; woman of the crown. Fake marriage or not, I was a princes now. That was a really strange thing to consider.

"Ben will it hurt?" I asked whispering.

"What Habib?" he asked sincerely unknowing of what I was meaning. "You know, tonight," I whispered back.

His eyes grew wide again, this time in real shock and his mouth fell slightly open. It took a while before he recovered.

"I will never hurt you, I promise," Benjamin seemed to be thinking. "Love is not supposed to hurt, or not intentionally at least," he said meaningfully.
