Chapter 117 - Being Bold

Jasmine

I got out of the vehicle and looked at the tall building. My stomach twisted, it felt like a bad idea. I turned around to look at my chauffeur, but I could see nothing but my guards.

I sighed and then moved inside. A Chinese man with a black suit on, walked up to me. "Good day, my name Wuh Chen, welcome at the Four Seasons." He said with a thick Chinese accent. 

"Good day." I replied. "Have you rented an accommodation with us, or do you wish to do so?" The friendly man asked me. His hair was pitch black.

"My husband is staying here, and I want to surprise him with my arrival." I told him. The man walked me to the reception. "It's fine, really." I told him. "I know where the room is, because I have slept here last night."

"We have to check first." He said friendly, smiling. "Okay." I voiced. "And his name is?" He asked me from behind the counter. "Benjamin El-Raji Al-Saud." I told him. I placed my right hand on my belly. The man was quiet for a while and then his eyes grew big.

"Your highness." He shrieked. I smiled at him. He walked up to me and bowed down. I urged him to get up. "People will recognize me." I smiled. He looked at my guards in return. "Please forgive me your highness, I will see to it that you can enter your husbands suit." He said and gestured for me to follow him.

I was getting more and more nervous as we entered the elevator. What will Ben say? Would he accept my proposal. I felt sick to my stomach and I did not know if the twins or this situation was the cause.

The kind man opened the door and my heart sped. I so hoped I would be alone for a while so I could reassemble my thought. "Your highness, your wife is here to see you." Wuh Chen said to someone inside.

Oh no… He was back. My hand started to shake a little. I was so stupid sometimes. This whole plan seemed to be more idiotic by the minute.

"Jasmine." I heard Benjamin say. "Good night your highness." The man bowed to Ben. "And goodnight your grace, if there is anything I can do for you, please let me know." He told me and left.

I was standing in the door opening. My feet had trouble moving over the threshold of the suit. Benjamin did not approach me either. So I think I stood there for at least five minutes.

"Ben…" I almost whispered as I walked into the beautiful room. Benjamin was standing before the window, watching the entrance the whole time. "Mhhh…" Benjamin said while his index finger rested on his lower lip.

I gulped. I needed to be brave to follow through on this. I needed to sound bold, because I had a very very bold proposal for him.

I walked up to him and grabbed the material of his blouse. Benjamin did not move and almost seemed frozen. I pulled the material of his blouse towards me as a gesture that he needed to lower his head.

His eyes were hard but he did lower his head so I could reach. I took his face in my hands and kissed him.

He did not kiss me back. I felt a pang through my body. I kissed him again and again, but his lips did not part. I fought back tears, this wasn't going the way I wanted. I had to get a grip on myself and I let my right hand glide to his belt and my left hand lowered as well.

He was watching me. His eyes seemed like hard topaz stones. I fumbled with his belt until it released his pants and opened his zipper. "Jazz…" He said restraint.

I took his face in my hands again and kissed him, just the way I knew that pleased him and knotted my hands in his hair. He gasped for air in between kisses.

"Please don't do this. I am- I can't-" Ben said with closed eyes.

"It has been too long for me and I cannot keep resisting you like this, while I'm on the urge of getting mad." He admitted while concentrating on his breathing.

I looked down to his pants and I could easily see that I got his attention now. "I don't want you to resist me." I said moving my hands under the material of his blouse and touching the skin of his lower torso.

"Jazz…" He said while rubbing his eyes. "We can't do this. Not anymore." He said rubbing his eyes again.

"That's what I am here to speak to you about." I said as boldly as I could.

"Have you changed your mind?" He said tilting my chin up. Benjamin drew me closer and licked my lips. I pressed myself against him in return.

"Not really." I breathed against his lips. He kissed me and I moved with him. He cocked his head to the side and narrowed his eyes.

"Not really." He repeated me and rolled his eyes at me. Benjamin twitched his lips and I felt the urge to kiss him again. So I did.

He raised his hands. "No." He said, stopping me.

"Let's not." He said firm. "We are separated." He told me. I felt like crying again. "Well about that." I said pressing my hands to his chest, underneath his blouse. His skin felt warm and inviting.

He narrowed his eyes at me. "So you want to be my wife again?" He asked me. If I would tell hem no, then this conversation would end. It meant something that he still let me touch him like this. It showed me that there was still a way.

"I want to be something else." I said as my hands lowered on his skin. Benjamin pouted his lips. "And what is it that you want to be then." He asked. He was hiding it, but I could feel that he was a little intrigued.

"I want to be your best friend and…" His eyes were softening.

"You are a prince. No, I mean… You are a king." I smiled. He smiled back. A little. "I know that you are a man of passion." I said afraid to look at his eyes. So I focused my gaze on his pleasure.

Benjamin tilted my chin up again. I opened my mouth to speak, but this sounded so stupid in my head right now. "I don't want you to share that passion with anyone else then me." I told him, looking him straight in the eyes.

The way he looked was kind of funny. His face was stuck between being angry and wanting to laugh.

"Mhh hhhuuu…" He nodded his head. He already knew this part. He knew I was jealous. "So I want to be your best friend with benefits." I rushed through the words.

Benjamin covered his mouth but a moment later he started to laugh, showing his ultra-white teeth. He then pressed his lips tightly together, but a small laugh escaped his lips anyway.

I narrowed my eyes at him in return. I did not like to feel mocked. "Please continue." He said fighting back a smile.

Please continue? That was my proposal.. what else was there to say? "How would you like me to continue?" I asked confused.

Benjamin cocked his head and laughed very loud now, while zipping his pants back up and starting to buckle his belt again.

I placed my hands on his, trying to stop him from doing so. "

What?!" He said dismissively.

"You were serious?" He said incredulous, mocking me.

I nodded.

"You want to be friends, with benefits." He emphasized on the last word.

I nodded again.

"And what does that mean." He said smiling.

I was about to cry… why was he being so mean… "It means that… that I am your friend and we raise our babies and do nice things togethers as the bests of friends… and that you won't sleep with anyone but me. It means that I am yours to take whenever you want." I said almost pleading.

Why was he being so difficult.

"Let me get this straight." He said smiling crookedly. I wanted to jump him right then and there.

I sighed. "You will come back to Saudi with me and raise our babies." He said as he touched my belly.

I nodded.

"And we will hang out together, have dinner, watch movies, go on vacations…" He trailed off, intently holding my gaze.

Then he came closer and placed his hand on my breast. "Besides all that... you want me to have my way with you." He smirked against my lips.

"Only with me." I added.

"Mhhh… Only you." He said as he sucked on my lips.

Then he looked at me.

"So what you are actually saying…." He said biting my neck. I panted. "Is that you want to be my wife." He said rubbing his nose against mine. 

His hot breath touched my face, while the room felt electric.
