"Oh my goodness, Justin. Please leave me alone." I said rolling over the bed.

My phone's been making noise all night. And I wish I could turn off the sound, but my phone is basically my alarm clock so..

I wanted to pick up and give Justin a piece of my mind but then again I didn't want to hop over king Jeremy's words.

He really scared me. His words really hit home. I've never felt so low in my entire life.

They way he looked at me, his facial expression didn't show it, but just looking into his eyes said a lot about what he thought about me.

And it probably wasn't much.

His expression basically screamed, "there is no way in hell you will ever be with my son"

Who knew people could be so hurtful? What am I asking? At such a High status he's in, talking down to other people was a must-have skill.

Iman, don't let him get to you.

One thing I'm very grateful for was though, was that he told me about Justin.

I didn't want to believe what he said, but overtime what he said took over my mind and now I just can't help but to believe him.

I didn't want to believe that Justin was already in a relationship with someone of "higher class"

I didn't want to believe that he was getting married.

I didn't want to believe I was being used.

I feel like total crap right now. And what's worse is the woman he's about to get married to. Lady Victoria of all people..

At least that's what I think. And if its not her, probably another woman from a noble and "worthy" family.

I feel like I helped him cheat. Even if I didn't know what was going on. I feel sorry for his soon to be wife. Poor girl.

But even worse, I've been feeling so paranoid lately.

I constantly feel like I'm being watched and I'm so afraid of even the slightest mess up.

That's why I'm trying to stay as far from Justin as possible. The king didn't say his threats, but I knew they'd be very harsh if I stepped out of line.

I kind of wanted to talk to him, but I kind of didn't want to upset the king. Stressful.

And Justin keep trying to get closer to me just makes things worse. I already can't associate myself with him.

My phone buzzed again.

I sighed in total frustration and snatched my phone off the nightstand.

I looked through my messages and saw that it was from Justin.

Iman, please give me a chance

Why are you so upset? I'm sorry if I did anything to upset you, love

We really need to talk

I didnt want to talk to him. But I wanted to know why he did all these things.

As much as I'd hate to admit this, I couldn't deny that kind of missed him.

Ugh! Just so many things going through my head at once..

He was such a major change in my life. I haven't known him for the longest, but he always managed to put a smile on my face.

I also missed the things we used to do. All the sweet text messages, goodnight phone calls, and his corny jokes...no..not his corny jokes..
