The Royal Contract
A one-night stand was all she wanted, but that was never his style. Still, they ended up together in a night of passion. No names, no feelings, and no complications. Heiress and advocate lawyer Daniella Hamilton had never wanted her inheritance, only wishing to live a simple life. Still, she ended up in the center of an intense war for power. Now, she had to find the balance between the life she dreamt of and the life that she was meant to have. Enigmatic and brilliant CEO Prince Alexander Princeton renounced his title to his birthright, believing that true power should come from building his own legacy. However, the kingdom faced a new dilemma where he was asked to serve his people and sit on the throne. Separated after their one night of wild adventure. They thought that their unexpected encounter was an isolated incident. However, fate had something else in mind, as they find their way back in each other’s arms, not in a passionate embrace but with a contract that would bind them for a long time. Would their agreement fulfill their dreams, or would it end in a disastrous union?

A temptress wanting to break free
She could not believe that she was sitting with him on the balcony of his apartment, staring at the mystical moon in the dark sky. The grayish sprinkles of clouds partially covered the horizon, slightly dimming the night sky.
But she still found it enchanting as his arms wrapped around her body, protecting her from the slightly cold breeze. "What did you think of Tony?" He suddenly asked out of the blue. Suddenly, her mind returned to the earlier events, recalling what had happened that afternoon.
Amelia had woken up later than usual, feeling a little bit sore. Or maybe just a bit more. However, she was not surprised to wake alone in bed this time, seeing the time on the clock. She could not believe it was already way past lunch.
Nonetheless, she was not anxious not to see him immediately. She trusted that he would not make the same mistake he did before. After all, she could not expect him to lie all day beside her, waiting for her to open her eyes.
