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?

"Hey, Jacky. Are you ok?" Dani asked, finding her friend looking like she was still in shock while Lance held her.
She was late to witness what happened earlier. Unaware that Jacky's current state was not due to the press outside, but something else she was not expecting to happen.
Jacky finally snapped out of it. Even Lance seemed surprised by the sudden turn of events. "Yeah, I think I am," Jacky answered her friend, releasing herself from Lance's grip on her arms.
She quickly turned to her friend and faced her, avoiding looking at Lance, afraid that he might read something in her eyes. She had to get her bearings in order. After that short kiss, it felt like she was drowning.
What happened with the press seemed so insignificant compared to the awkwardness and confusion she currently felt. She did not know what to think of that gesture. But she knew she could not ask Lance why he did that.
