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?

He had stood frozen in his place as his eyes kept staring at the other person in the room. What was she doing in here? She was supposed to be thousands of miles away from him. Was this a dream, a play of fate?
"Is there something wrong?" He could not help but think that there was an emergency, that was why she was here. She did nod. "Is it Grandmama?" When she shook his head. "Is it Eida? Luisa?"
He walked further into the room, standing closer to his visitor. He still believed that his eyes were deceiving him. That by the time he touched her, she would suddenly disappear in a puff of smoke.
"Then, what is it?" He could not stand the silence as her eyes remained fixated on him.
Finally, she left the chair and stood before him. He could almost touch her if not for the few inches of air that kept them apart. She was too close but not quite.
