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

"Can I hear a round of applause for my beautiful wife," Benjamin said to the crowd. "Isn't she beautiful?!" he went on. My cheeks felt like they were on fire.

My heart raced in my chest as Benjamin began to sing. His voice was stunning and the crowd seemed to agree. Benjamin looked at me while he sang the most beautiful love song.

I tried to stop myself, but tears started to flow down my cheek. Stupid hormones. When the song ended, Ben got up and wiped my tears away. "That was beautiful," I said a little reluctant.

I looked at him, begging for a kiss, but he did not give it to me. I guess we both knew why. Benjamin bowed and waved at the crowd and led me back to our seats. The whole crowd went hysterical.

On the way back to the hotel, Zachary kept trying to animate me, since Saphira kept talking to Ben. Benjamin kept looking at me the entire time, his eyes almost seemed black.
