Love Untangled

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? #Shaphmin #Jazzmin #Shaphary #Benierra? #Saphlik?

True strength

*Benjamin's POV*

Advisors came in and our my office, from the moment I arrived back in the palace.

Security in the palace had risen to maximum. But even I knew, that the most threat came from inside these walls.

I had been thinking about that for a long time. In some countries the king does not live in the same 'house' as their family members, those each live on their own. That would probably anger my family members, for reasons, I could really not understand.

Or maybe I could, because before I came on the throne, succession was not according to who was first born and so forth, but through favoritism within a family. In my case, it made my family more than corrupt. 

I should  of realized that instead of easing the situation, I had just put a bounty on my and my wife's head by changing the succession. From my coronation on, only my oldest born could inherit my title and the throne, should that oldest be a son.
