JadeandIreturnedto our usual routine. Lolade left town after apologizing. Jade still can’t understand why she would drug her. She has promised me she will stay away from Lolade.
I show up most times to surprise her. I’ve plans for her graduation. She seems willing to be seen with me as the days draw closer.
I left Jade and returned to Rhanaz. I need to complete this training soon. I went in after telling Jade I’ll be gone for three months. I explained why I needed to complete this training in the stretch, and she understood. I should be done before she graduates, and I can clear my schedule for her temporarily.
I’m behind on the prince academy training but it needs to be done. I’d just completed part A when the king summoned me due to an urgent need. I had to attend a gathering and talk over some situation that had gone bad. Of course, Nadra showed up at every gathering, one evening she even tried to kiss me, but I did my best to avoid the kiss and save face.
The next day I saw a magazine that told a different story. Once the crisis was averted, I went straight to Chicago. I can’t return to the camp without seeing Jade. I sent Rilwan to get Jade, but he returned without her and a voice message “We’ve reached our stop, I think we should go our separate ways, Prince Naseer. I no longer wish to date you. Goodbye.”
I toss my drink. “Are you sure Jade is, okay?” I ask Rilwan, who returns a frown.
“I know that Princess Nadra paid her a visit last week.”
“What!?” that has disaster written all over it. How the fuck did Nadra know where to find Jade? The only answer that comes to mind is my dad and I’m not liking this at all.
“I have it on good record that words were exchanged, and Princess Nadra left upset.”
“Do you know where Jade is?”
“Yes, she was on her way out with her course mate, Nate.” He then showed me the picture he took.
I look at the picture and I’m upset, seeing the guy’s arm wrapped around her in a short dress, no point sending Rilwan back. I’m going back myself. Two hours later, I return to her campus and Rilwan gets me into her room.
Certainly, a dorm room. I sit in the corner of her bed and wait. I noticed a magazine with a taped note. “Do you think you’re exclusive?” Whoever sent this magazine to Jade knows how to make her tick, the downside is, that it could be anyone in our long list of enemies. Doesn’t help that fucked up Nadra visited her. Waiting is my Achilles heel yet somehow Jade seems to always keep me waiting. I checked my watch every minute until I got a text from Rilwan telling me she’s on her way up.
She soon arrives with the boy. They are smiling and laughing, they didn’t notice me. He’s getting comfortable like he’s going to stay the night, I notice he’s attempting to kiss my woman, that’s where I draw the line. I’ve had enough of this nonsense.
Clearing my throat loudly, I rise.
JADE
IwalkedbackwithNate to my dorm room; it was a quiet walk we had a good time together. He’s fun.
I needed to laugh and hide my broken heart. Last week while studying a strong familiar smell that I detest filled my nostrils when I lifted my head from my books, there she was in front of me. The mighty Princess Nadra in a study room. Staring me down in her overpriced clothes looking completely out of place in a college library. I’ve never considered anyone to be my bane, but I can honestly say Nadra whose perfume chokes my lungs, is the bane of my existence in a thousand scorching sun. The thorn in my side. I could go on, but I needed to get rid of her, first.
“How can I help you?” I firmly ask as I maintain eye contact and do not bother to get up. If anything, she’s disturbing my flow and I’m glad there’s a large table between us because the open hatred emanating from each of us could have set the library ablaze.
“You can stop fucking my boyfriend.” She snickers.
“Who might that be?” I refused to take her bait though we both know the one person we have in common.
“Prince Naseer; he keeps coming to Chicago to fuck you. I’m sure you’re aware that he’ll never marry you so stop getting between us.” Her eyes roll in disgust. Hands on her waist. I watch her stance, as I prepare myself for her attack.
“Who said anything about marrying him, not to worry, he can be yours when we separate but right now, he’s mine and I can fuck him anytime I want.” I returned a Cheshire cat grin to her scowl. While preparing myself for a fight.
“You must think, you are special because he can’t stop coming to you but not to worry, I’ll have the last laugh and I know how to play dirty.” She snares.
“I know how dirty you play, and like I said right now, he’s mine. But if you feel a need to settle this immediately. Why don’t we call him on speaker so he can tell you that right now he’s mine.” Her face looks like she’s about to beat me to a pulp. Her nostril flares. She shifts her weight in annoyance. I bet she didn’t expect me to respond.
I remain seated and brace myself for a physical fight with this crazy woman while Naseer is unreachable.
“Sorry, I’m late,” Nate says behind her, she turns and leaves behind the choking poignant smell of her perfume.
“Who was that?” Nate asks.
“Someone not worthy of our time.” He nods and opens his computer.
Returning to my room that night, I wasn’t too happy about Nadra’s visit, the only person I could share that with was Tito and she just told me not to worry about it and keep my focus on Naseer. I was doing just that until a few days later when I found a magazine on my bed with pictures of Nadra and Naseer kissing, my heart dropped.
