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?

"That is not funny." She found herself giggling at his corny joke. She could not help it. She had thought he was amusing, but she refused to admit it.
However, despite her misgivings, she could not deny that she enjoyed his company. She had to confess she liked his silly sense of humor.
The more she spent time with him, the more she felt closer to him. Was that bad? She hoped not. But her brain still advised caution.
"But you like it. Come on." He insisted while laughing himself. "Admit it. It was a bit funny." He gave her a charming smile that seemed to melt all her inhibitions. And indeed, she found his laughter infectious. Eventually, she grabbed a piece of bread and threw it at the man sitting opposite him at the counter. "Stop it, David. You are going to give me a stomach ache." Rosella slightly bent on her stomach, finding him hilarious.
