Running away from an abusive home, Jasmine Marie finds herself on a plane with tragic results, landing her in the kingdom of Parisih.
The kingdom was ruled by the two great twin Kings Laurent and Larry Bourgeois.
As she wandered about, she heard of...
Her words caught me so off guard that all I could say was okay. Would she really stay with me? I tried to not get my hopes up but if Jasmine would really come back after what I said, I would do whatever it took.
We arrived at the hotel and Jasmine seemed reluctant to go inside.
King Laurent: "If you are not comfortable staying the night with me Jasmine, I can arrange for you to have a separate room." She looked at me and gripped her chin in thought.
Jasmine: "I would like that King Laurent. I said that I would speak with you, nothing more. So I will stay in the limo until you get everything situated." Ow. I got out the limo and made my way to the reception desk. The receptionist, a pretty blonde, recognize me and a seductive smile lifted her lips.
"Ah, hello King Laurent. Is there something I can do for you?" Her flirting was obvious with the batting of her eyelashes and she licked her lips. I didn't even attempt to hide the disgust in my voice.
King Laurent: "Yes you can, you can start by stopping with the flirting I'm not interested. Also, I need another room, similar to mines for a friend. That will be all. Thank you." I probably shouldn't have been so rude but I was hurt by Jasmine wanting a different room so shamefully I took it out on the receptionist.
"I understand your Majesty, shall I charge it to your bill?",
King Laurent: "That will be fine." The receptionist handed me the extra key without even looking back up. Just another woman I hurt.
I stepped back out into the cool air and opened the limo doors. Jasmine turned from me quickly and wiped her eyes, clearing her throat. Talk about feeling like shit, I hated that I did this to her.
King Laurent: "I have your room ready, we can head in now if you'd like." I held my hand out for her to hold again but she rejected that one as well, getting out on her own. My eyes looked Jasmine up and down, memorizing how she looked. Just in case.
Jasmine was quiet the whole time from walking in the lobby to going up in the elevators. Though she was quiet, her mind was loud. I could practically hear her thoughts screaming. When we finally made inside the hotel suite, she wouldn't move from the door.
King Laurent: "Did you not wish to talk Jasmine?" Her eyes just stared at me and I felt myself fidget once again. What was it about this woman that could make me feel so small? She still did not move from the door.
Jasmine: "We can talk still, I just prefer to be near the door should you fail." I sighed and sat down on the huge king sized bed.
King Laurent: "Okay, whenever you're ready."
( Jasmine )
He was being very accommodating, doing as I asked albeit reluctantly and with a frown. I would admit that King Laurent was to damn adorable with that pout upon his bow lips. I leaned against the door and closed my eyes.
Jasmine: "What happened to Lauren? She said Candice did it to her and you said nothing to object that, so tell me." Laurent eyes narrowed and he smacked his teeth.
King Laurent: "I don't see why that matters Jasmine, it's irrelevant to our situation." Already looking like a F.
Jasmine: "You either answer all my questions or I fucking leave, you don't choose what's relevant here Your Majesty, I do!" If looks could kill, I'd be in a casket.
King Laurent: "Very well, since you asked oh so nicely. After Candice awoken from her coma and I told her I would take care of her family, Lauren and Candice got into an argument about what truly happened. I don't know the full story and Lauren refuses to tell me, just that Candice lost it and broke a bottle and sliced Lauren's face with it. Lauren said Candice never even apologized." Disgust was in every pore of my body. That was the woman he chose to love?
Jasmine: "Wow King Laurent, you have amazing taste in women. I'll accept that answer. If you love Candice so much, why haven't you made her Queen?"
King Laurent: "She isn't worthy of the crown. The kingdom would never accept her. Whilst they already are in love with you I've noticed." Saying that would get him nowhere.
Jasmine: "If she's not worthy of being your Queen, why even waste your time King Laurent?! I don't understand this stupidity!" I was now pacing by the door, my irritation with King Laurent growing.
King Laurent: "It is only guilt that keeps me with her Jasmine, I do not wish to abandon her like everyone else! She would be all alone!" I stopped pacing and glared at the stupid fool.
Jasmine: "When someone is so foul that no one will stay around and everyone hates, does that not maybe register in your head that she's a fucking cunt?! That she is a damn sociopath?! And you won't leave her because she'll be abandoned? If the bitch could breathe without an insult in it, maybe people would stay around." I pulled on my curl, feeling like I was on the edge of losing it. King Laurent just sighed and looked down at the carpeted floor.
King Laurent: "Any other questions Jasmine?" Tiredness was laced in every word.
Jasmine: "Fine, since you're so against speaking bad about your whore, tell me what's the point in me going back with you? Will you leave Candice if I was to be your Queen? Would I be your only one? Or would I be constantly fighting for my husbands love and a place by his side?" King Laurent got up and walked over to me, placing his hands on both sides of the door, trapping me. His eyes were angry but calm.
King Laurent: "Jasmine, if you're to be my Queen then there would be only you. If need be, I will get rid of Candice if you asked me. There would be no fighting Jasmine, if you're already my Queen, what would you fight for? You would already have your crown and I would be only yours baby. Why won't you believe me?" King Laurent reached into his pocket and pulled out a black silk rectangular box. He stared at it for a second, then took my hand, placing it in the palm.

Inside the box, lay a beautiful rose gold Jasmine flower charm and necklace. It was adorned with smaller crystals and five large ones. I smiled and a tear brushed down my cheek. I leaned forward and kissed King Laurent, it started off gentle but then I deepened it, my tongue playing with his. I pulled away and leaned my head against his.
Jasmine: "This is a beautiful gift King Laurent and I love it. You said that I would be your only, but remember King Laurent, you also told Queen Jessica that. Yet, Candice is around and she is not. I care for you so much and I want nothing more than to be with you, but this is not enough. You told me when I first arrived that you believe actions not words. Show me King Laurent. Until then, you've failed. Goodnight." And with that, I turned the doorknob and left King Laurent's room. I went into mines, locking the door. I went to the hotel phone and called the number of the person I had made plans with when I first set out for London.
