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?

He drove in the traffic and then into the almost empty street to be with her. No matter how late he got out of work, he went straight to her to check on her. He knew that he would not get any sleep if he could not see her.
Although Roseann told him he should not stay overnight, sleeping on the chair or the couch, he would still have lingered for a few hours before returning to his empty apartment. He needed assurance that she was ok.
"Hi, David. You are late today." The nurse on duty greeted him. They were getting familiar with him since he was always around.
They even brought him coffee or a sandwich from time to time. But he could guess it could be Roseann who asked them to do so. Still, he appreciated their kindness and concern.
