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

After washing my hair he took some soap and started to soap my arm. His touch was gentle. "C-can I wash you?" I said flushed. He looked at me with a hint of a smile. "I want you to," he said. "But I think it is best if you do not." Benjamin cupped my face with one hand.

"Tell me what you feel," he asked holding my gaze with his hazel eyes. I fumbled with my hand on the skin of his chest. I looked up at him and then averted my eyes again. "Tell me," he said. "I don't know, it's stupid." I flushed.  How could I tell him something I did not know how to describe myself.

"Mhh…" He pressed me to continue. "I want to be near you and touch you. Even though we are this close, I want to come closer." My breathing stocked as I said this, but it was the whole truth. "I feel that too," he said tracing my lips with his finger. My lips parted a little. I looked at him and bit him softly. His eyes seemed to roll to the back of his head.

Awakened.
