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?

The new man of the house
Laura could hardly sleep last night, staring at the vacant bed beside her. It felt strange to close her eyes, knowing she was alone in this big, spacious room. It felt so empty without him.
It was not that she had never slept on this bed on her own. Ethan did have to work overtime countless times during their married life, so she sometimes lay alone on this bed. The only difference from that time to this.
Before, when she woke up the following morning, her eyes would land on his sleeping form next to her. Now, she would open her eyes to silence and his absence.
"I am happy to see that you are looking much better." Ben, her brother, held her hand in his as he sat next to her at the table.
She smiled at him, glad he and his family could join them on such short notice. She had missed him dearly since he resided now at a different location, farther than she wanted.
