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?

"Aren't you tired yet?" He dropped down on the sand as he tried to catch his breath.
He had been swimming to pass the idle time. But he was already exhausted. He wanted to return to the comfort of their room and the cold air conditioning, but his wife refused to leave just yet.
"What are we waiting for anyway?" Marcus confusedly asked, watching his wife with curiosity.
His wife had been sitting in the lounge chair under a big umbrella for an hour. But it seemed she had no plan of moving just yet.
"I just want to savor this moment," Jacky sweetly responded with a beaming smile. "Who knows when we will be able to do this again?"
He could not blame his wife for thinking that. They could afford a hundred trips like this with the money he was earning, but it was time that was the problem.
His busy schedules and responsibilities prevented him from taking his wife on vacations more than he should.
