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?

Tongue-tied
"We had been talking about me all day. What about you? How was your date with Lance?" Dani asked her friend as she helped in the preparation of dinner.
The day in the office had been hectic due to the several cases she was handling. She still brought three contracts home that she had to review tonight to catch up with her work.
On top of all the things happening with her life, she barely had time to bond with her best friend. So now, she was taking advantage of their time alone to have a meaningful conversation with her.
"Honestly, I don't know if I can even call that a date. I think we are in a friend zone. He only likes my company while he is here, but nothing more." Jacky explained to her friend.
That was her impression on their dinner date. She had expected that it would be nothing more. She had to face reality and not the fantasy world.
"Hold on." Dani placed down the plate she was holding and walked towards her friend.
