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?

Missed the chance
She gazed at herself at her reflection, staring at her long white gown as it smoothly flowed down the length of her body. She had pictured herself wearing this stunning wedding dress since she was a child.
Just like most girls, she was one of those who fantasized about becoming a princess. Then, one day, his prince would come, sweep her off her feet, protect her from all harm and save her.
But at some point in her life, she stopped believing in that dream. She woke up to the hard reality that even a prince could not save the day. She only had herself to depend on, and she had to stop waiting for this charming man.
"Are you ready?" Her friend asked as she put the final pin on her veil and placed the bouquet in her hand.
"Yes!" She whispered under her shaking breath as she looked at herself one last time in the mirror. The woman that never thought her dreams would eventually come true.
