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?

Clear sailing from here on out
"Don't make a sudden sound," Alex warned her again, seeing the excitement in her eyes. She could hardly hold the pole correctly as her hands trembled on the handle.
Even he felt the rush of catching their first fish for the day. It did not matter if she was the one who was able to capture it as long as it would become dinner tonight.
"Oh, my!" She finally shrilled when the hooked almost slipped from her grasp. "I think I need some help."
She quickly held it tightly as she fought the fish from escaping. She pulled on the pole, hoping that the fish would finally surrender to her.
"Just keep it steady and slowly reel it in." He instructed as he slowly stood up from his position and moved towards her.
Instead of holding the fishing pole, he just watched and guided her on what she should do. Slowly, she fought the fish and reeled it in until it finally gave up and floated in the air.
