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?

The water was not a dream
She knew she saw a glimpse of a man, but before she could confirm her suspicion, he was gone. The elevator closed, and she did not see his face.
But she did not doubt that it was him she had caught in her peripheral vision.
But what was he doing there, and why did he leave in such a hurry?
"Is there a problem, Ria?" Jay asked her, probably noticing her abrupt movement. Then, he followed her gaze, but he would only see the empty hallway.
During the short course of their meal, she had learned a few things about him. While she also shared a few things about herself. She had discovered that it was not hard to talk to him.
He seemed to be a sweet and loving husband to his late wife and a good and responsible father to his adorable daughter. He showed her a picture of his family while she showed him some pictures of his son.
