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?

A wreck and riding a sinking ship
"Is this not great?" Cassie said as she attacked her pancake and coffee with gusto in a diner not far from her place. As she tried to convince him that going out was a good idea.
She felt so alive and had a great appetite as she enjoyed the food on the table. She could feel her heart pumping with adrenaline as she thought of the things they would do for the rest of the day.
She sliced a big chunk of the pancake and tried to feed Jacob with a mouthful. He first declined, but eventually, he opened his mouth and gave in. He only ordered coffee since he was not hungry.
"You know I could have cooked you that in the safety of your place." Jacob still was apprehensive about her plans.
He wanted to regret agreeing to her plans, but seeing the smile on her lips made him feel guilty that it was his brother who was the cause of all her misery.
