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?

Beep! Beep! Beep!
Her alarm clock went on continuously, but she kept ignoring it, letting the sound enter one ear and exit the other. She knew it was time to wake up. However, she did not want to go to work.
She did not want to be in the same building, let alone in the same room with her sister. Although nothing happened last night, she still felt guilty, as hell, for her unwarranted thoughts.
"Ooohhh!" She hated herself for it as she covered her face with her pillow, muffling her voice. And at the same time, she wished to suppress her mind from wandering elsewhere.
Fortunately, last night, she was the first stop. Her apartment was the closest to the hospital. Therefore, she requested to be the first one out of the car. When David offered to walk her to her door, she shut him down, telling him she could still do it alone. She did not want to spend a minute longer with him.
