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.

Love Untangled

I felt a hand stroking my naked legs. Tears started to flow from my eyes. I was bound to the chair, I had no way of protecting myself. Not that I ever had a way of protecting myself before, when it came to him.

"America has made you a filthy whore already," he spat in my face.

I tried to breathe and sit as still as I could. I was not going to give him the satisfaction of seeing how scared I really was.

I heard the door open with a shriek. "Hey!" Ssmeone shouted. "We will leave her unharmed!" the man said with authority as if he was in charge or something.

"I am barely touching her," Saeed said. "Don't be nasty like that. She is your sister in-law," the man said disapprovingly.

Saeed dropped his hand from my leg and went out of the room. Somehow, I had a feeling this was not the last time I was going to see him.

"Are you alright?" I heard a man say. I did not think I knew his voice. I nodded 'no'.
