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.

An accident or a foul play
Ben was following Dani closely when the accident happened. Fortunately, he was a defensive driver who had easily maneuvered his car away from the accident. If not, he would be one of the piles of tangled metals on the street.
He immediately went out of his car to check on Dani. He scanned the chaos and counted five vehicles involved in the accident. At the front of the pack was Dani's car.
He simultaneously took out his phone and dialed for help. He reported the incident and made a quick assessment of the situation.
He debated for a second if he should call his boss right away or check on Dani first, but the latter won. Every second counts. His boss could wait. Then, he returned his phone to his pocket.
In instinct, he moved into the wreckage, checking if he could reach Dani's side. It was a tight squeeze, but he managed to work around the carnage of twisted metals until he was standing outside her window.
