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?

Forever a prisoner of the past
At the police station, someone approached her, acting as her lawyer even though she had not asked for one. She did not even know that they were filing a case against her. But what was the charge?
"What is going on?" She demanded as she sat inside a holding room for criminals. Luckily she sat on a chair without a handcuff on her wrist.
But she was not a criminal. It was only a speeding ticket, a minor offense, and not a capital crime. She was not a lawyer, but she was aware of her right and the law. What they were doing was an unlawful arrest.
"Please, wait here while I figure this out." The man she did not even get the name said to her. He just said that he was her lawyer. He would do everything he could to clear this matter, and that was it.
She did not even know she needed a lawyer since the arresting officer had not charged her with anything yet. It was a first-time offense, so she could not be facing serious charges.
