The Duke's Unwanted Wife
“While falling from the building, there was only one thought in her head. 'If rebirth is real, I hope I'm not born ever again. Life is too horrid to live again' Her head hit the ground, splitting into a million pieces. The perfect way to die for someone who wanted to be unrecognized and forgotten. Like a painful dream, she opens her eyes and she's back again, 10 years in the past. She was back to the day she was being married off to the duke who was destined to abandon her and love another, to a prince who was obsessed with other people's possession, and a witch who pretended to be a saint. 'One of you gods up there must be messing with me, right?! I said I didn't want to live again! What is the meaning of this?!' Brought to the past, Natalia has two choices, flight or fight. What would've become a wasteful life in the slums was reversed when he had a hand stretched out to him. The prince was charming and kind and he would've given his life for him. However, betrayal was a bucket of cold water and a priced dagger in the back. He would never accept an outstretched hand but he couldn't deny a sharpened sword to the neck. She's not a knight in shining armor but she's the salvation he needed and whether he liked it or not, he would give his life for her.”
