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?

Painful reunion
"Do your men report to you everything that I do?" Alex heard her asked him.
He wondered where she was going with this question, but he was willing to oblige her by answering her truthfully. Well, he had nothing to hide anyway.
"Just only pertinent information about your safety." He told her, glancing in her direction.
"Oh, ok." She replied back but with slight hesitation. She wanted to ask more, but she could not think of a better way to rephrase her question without sounding offensive.
"My men don't report to me what you do or where you go to if that is what you are asking." He finally looked at her directly in the eyes to prove that he was telling her the truth. "I only asked them to make sure that you are secure at all times."
His men were only there to assure him that she was always safe and not spy on her. But he could only guess that she had a bad experience with men trailing her from the way her father had over-protected her.
