He proposes a contract for her to pretend to be his fiancée, to save his reputation and avoid a forced marriage.
Story Recap
Episode 1
Amelia is a struggling actress with nothing left — her manager Tommy has taken her money, and she's broke, homeless, and fresh off a blown audition she spent her last money on. Then a mysterious stranger, Alex, offers her a deal: a room in his mansion and a generous fee if she signs a contract to pretend to be his fiancée. She pushes back — she doesn't even know him — but he needles her pride, betting she isn't a good enough actress to pull it off. Amelia signs.

Episode 2
Alex's father isn't interested in negotiation. He orders Alex back to Millburg to marry Lucia immediately, and Alex refuses flatly — he's not marrying her. Meanwhile, Amelia chafes under Alex's house rules: no questions, no leaving the bedroom without permission, strictly business. She calls him a dictator, but swallows it for the money. Still, the arrangement clearly isn't as simple as either of them planned, and the wedding pressure from the palace isn't going away.

Episode 3
The masquerade party throws everything into chaos. Amelia, masked and out of place, gets mocked by guests who sneer that someone like her isn't fit for the prince. Then she bumps straight into Alex — the clumsy girl who just collided with the prince. The room turns. Whispers spread that he's the prince of Valmyr. Amelia's cover, and everything she thought she knew about the man who took her in, starts to crack wide open.

Episode 4
Alex corners Amelia in the bedroom — no leaving without his permission — and she panics, desperate not to be recognized. He demands an apology for the collision, reminding her of the rules and warning her not to defy him. But Amelia fires back, refusing to be treated like property. The tension between them sharpens: he's used to obedience, she refuses to give it, and neither is backing down.
Episode 5
Amelia tries to walk away, but Alex won't let her leave without paying a penalty. She accuses him of tricking her — he never told her he was the prince of Valmyr. He insists he never hid it, and then it clicks: she's the woman who bumped into him at the palace. Amelia denies it, but Alex's patience runs out. He warns she'll be punished for lying to him, and the question hangs in the air — what exactly does he mean?
Episode 6
Alex makes his intentions explicit, threatening a humiliating punishment before ordering Amelia back to the palace to fulfill her contract. At the airport, an official disrespects her, and Alex steps in with a warning: judge his fiancée again and he'll lose his post. He tells her no one may disrespect her except him. Then he turns on her outfit, and the royal lessons begin. Amelia realizes he's a completely different person here.
Episode 7
The palace etiquette instructor is merciless — stomach in, chest up, chin high — and calls Amelia's efforts pathetic. He warns that if the king sees through their act, it won't end well for anyone. Next comes court etiquette: memorizing an entire book. Amelia calls it torture and starts scheming an escape, claiming she doesn't feel well and needs the restroom. The instructor isn't fooled so easily, and the pressure of playing a princess keeps mounting.
If you love a fake-fiancée romance with a prince who's equal parts infuriating and protective, this one's worth hitting play on tonight.
