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?

No. No. No.
Was she dreaming?
She meant yes.
But how could she answer him when he had not asked the question yet? Then, she felt overwhelmed with emotion as she looked into his eyes, which proudly reflected his love for her.
She did not expect someone would love her in such a way. She always thought that she was already damaged goods. No man would ever take her seriously. But here he was, ready to spend his life with her.
If she was whimpering before, she was fully crying now. "Hey, Ria, what is wrong?" He asked, seemingly afraid and concerned.
