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?

Acting like children
"Hey!" A voice broke into her thoughts. "We are here." Suddenly she woke up from her dream, or was she even sleeping? However, it was not a dream but a nightmare that had come true.
She had fought hard to escape her past, but why did it start chasing her again? Why did she have to see him again? Why now? She only hoped that this was an isolated case. That after this trip, she would never see him again.
She finally saw the diner outside her window and remembered his offer to take her to dinner. At least this was far from the hotel. She doubted that her ex would even think of looking for her here.
"What are we waiting for?" Ria asked, unbuckling her seat and exiting the car, not waiting for him to ask questions. "I am famished."
She noticed how he was looking at her with concern. But she was not about to feed his curiosity by behaving weirdly. So, she decided to act normal, like nothing was wrong. At least, she would try.
