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?

Unspoken question
"Alex?" Dani stretched her hand and found the bed empty. "What are you doing? It's barely dawn."
Alex was already up, getting dressed. She could not help the disappointment displayed on her face upon realizing that he was already leaving.
"I am needed to be early in the office. I still need to go home and get change." He said as he buttoned his white shirt and folded his coat in his hand.
If he had a choice, he would rather stay until later or even skip going to work. But he had responsibilities that he could not ignore just because he wanted to spend more time with Dani in bed. That was just not a good excuse.
"I supposed you are right. But I am already missing you." She sounded so wanton that she did not even recognize herself.
Maybe she was still dreaming, and nothing about this was real. She pinched her skin to check if she would feel the pain. Unfortunately, she was wide awake.
