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?

She did not hear the door open. Was she too lost in her thoughts that she did not notice her surrounding? She wiped her tears and held on to the cloth until she was sure that there were no more tears left in her eyes.
"No, I was here first. But I believe I did not notice you come in. I was standing on that far corner." He pointed to the spot he had left.
It would seem that he was not alone in wallowing their sorrows and hiding in this room for comfort. He stared at that beautiful face and wondered who would think of hurting another person.
