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?

"Can you grab me a cup of coffee and a muffin?" Tim instructed one of his men, who dropped a few files on his tables. He had just finished another meeting with his head of security that morning.
They discussed updating their security system after last night's break-in. He could not afford another slip up like that. Cause another incident might be worse and could mean their deaths, as their enemy clearly pointed out.
He checked his watch, calculating if he still had a few more minutes before he had to leave. He had planned to meet another informant before lunch, and he did not want to be late.
"Yes, Sir." The well-built man nodded his head, acknowledging his simple task.
He returned back to his files. So far, the reports he had received still led them nowhere. Although the pictures might be pointing to something, they still could not grasp the entire connection.
