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?

Serena paced the room, moving back and forth on the available space between her bed and the wall. She could not think straight, wondering if she was wrong.
Did she harshly pass judgment on an innocent man? Did she readily jump to her conclusion without giving him a chance to explain and defend himself?
"Serena?" Her assistant suddenly knocked on her bedroom door, making her turn, distracting her from her thoughts.
"Yes, Claire." Serena forced a reply from her lips, knowing she was waiting.
"I will call it a night if you do not need anything else from me." Claire hollered on the other side of the wooden door.
She thought about it, concluding that she had all she needed. At least, with her state of mind, she doubted she would require anything else for the night.
Steadily, she moved toward her door, opening it. Since her visitor had left, she had locked herself in her room, wanting a quiet place and privacy.
