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?

"Because..." Adam paused as he gently forced her to turn to face him.
He wanted to see her face. He needed to see her reaction to what he had to say. It was the only way he could gauge his situation.
"Because what?" She asked, slightly sounding indifferent, failing to return his hug while standing before him, immobile.
Honestly, this was not what he expected her reaction would be once they saw each other again. He guessed he thought she would be thrilled and excited like him.
On the other hand, she should be furious with him if David mentioned his transgression. However, she was too calm if she knew anything about it.
