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?

Near impossible
"I heard that you were leaving tomorrow," Lance uttered just behind her on top of the poolside.
He watched her move in the water, happy she was enjoying herself, but she was alone. He wondered what happened to her friends. He knew that he should be flying around the world right now, but he could not stop thinking about her. He had to see her.
"Oh! Hi, Lance. How long have you been standing there?" Jacky looked in his direction, a bit surprised by his sudden presence.
She suddenly stopped swimming in the water, if she would call what she was doing as such, and focused her attention on him. She wondered if he had been watching her for some time.
She did not know that he was coming today. Yesterday, when they separated after their overnight trip on the island, he mentioned that he was going on another trip. So, there was no possibility that they might see each other before she left.
