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?

Wonderful surprise
As the night went on, the boys enjoyed their drinks and banter, not minding the time and the people around them.
"Anyway, any of you guys want a date tonight?" Marcus asked as they all had their fourth drink or fifth, except for Alex, who was still in his second one.
"If you want one or two, no one is stopping you." Evan eyed the two girls that kept on flirting with them, just waiting for the opportunity to join them.
"I think he is just heartbroken, so we should let him deal with that in his way." Alex taunted his friend, who still seemed to be dealing with his loss. Although, he did not realize it yet.
Alex believed that his friend was hiding behind his mask of masculinity, not wanting to face the fact that his breakup with Jacky affected him as much as Jacky did.
"No, I am not. What gave you that idea? Jacky and I are over, and I am glad because she turned out to be like the other girls. Clingy and demanding." Marcus said in disgust.
