There is no us.
The words had been swimming around my head since I'd heard them. How could she say that? How could she dismiss me so easily?
After she'd returned to her friends it was as though I didn't exist, and once we'd arrived back on land, she'd disappeared up to her room without even looking back at me.
I was alone now in my suite, staring at my reflection wondering where I was going wrong.
I'm a Prince for Christ's sake, what's more desirable than that? Why can't she see me the way other women do?
Usually, I had to fight them off me, but Lizzie --she was something else entirely. It was like she was completely impervious to my charm, as though I had no effect on her whatsoever.
I was just a bit of fun to her. Nothing else.
Then it dawned on me. That was how I had seen women before her. Just fun. Just a way to have an orgasm. Flinging myself back on the bed, I stared at the ceiling. The usual sunshine was nowhere to be found so all the light had been sucked out the room.
The walls were as grey as the sky and as miserable as my mood.
I need a drink.
Rolling off the bed, I spruced myself up, slipped into a clean suit and slicked back my hair. You devastatingly handsome bastard, I told myself. You could have any woman you want. You don't need that American girl. If she can't appreciate you then a thousand others women will.
If she didn't know a good thing when she saw it then I wasn't hanging around waiting on her like a lovesick little boy. I didn't need her.
Yet as much as I told myself this, I knew it wasn't true. I'd never needed anyone so much in my entire life. She was all I thought about, all I'd ever wanted. In that moment, it felt as though every woman before her had never existed.
Why doesn't she want me?
I tortured myself with this thought over and over again. Making my way down to the bar, I planned on knocking back as much scotch as it took to obliterate any thoughts of her.
As usual, all eyes were on me as I entered the VIP suite. A couple of girls were sat at the bar in miniscule sequins dresses trying their best to seductively flutter their eyelashes in my direction.
“Scotch on the rocks,” I said to the barman.
He gave me a curt nod and slid a glass over to me. Beside me, the girls' eyes were burning into the side of my head. I turned and gave them a polite smile. From the way they looked at me, I knew I could have them both in my bed within the hour if I wanted to. Maybe even within the next ten minutes.
They began whispering to each other, hiding behind their hair and hands like teenagers. I tried to ignore them, but just as I was about to walk away, the nearest one yanked at my sleeve.
