This story is fictional. I would like to stress that it is not based on a true story or has any purposeful resemblance to any real occurrences. The topic of a child bride is something very serious, but I do not have a lot of knowledge on it so I would like to make it clear that this story is not to be taken as accurate or correct. The information from this story is completely made up and any accuracy is 100% accidental.
I am not trying to offend anyone by writing a story about this. I have recently been reading a book about this and it sparked some thoughts. I am not trying to be rude to anyone who has anymore knowledge about this sort of topic because I will admit I don't have a lot about it.
There are some topics that may be seen as concerning to some. If it is a topic you feel uncomfortable with, then please stop reading. I will give advanced warnings when anything unusual may happen in detail prior to the posted chapter.
The cover for this story was made by @DannyFlinn.

In her past life, Giselle was betrayed by her husband and stepsister, who plotted to carve out her heart while she was still alive. But fate granted her a second chance. After being reborn, she returned from the countryside and, by chance, saved a mysterious man-only to steal his precious dagger and flee, completely unaware that he was the wealthiest man in all of Zephara. That very night, he caught up to her. "Little mouse, do you still think you can escape?" "I-I wasn't trying to...!" But no matter how she tried, there was no running away. She fell right into his trap-and into marriage with the overbearing man. Just when she feared she had made the same mistake again, he leaned in close and whispered, "Don't be afraid. As long as I'm here, no one in Zephara will dare disrespect you." When the richest man took Velmora City's so-called ugliest woman as his wife, everyone expected it to be a laughingstock. But when that so-called "ugly" woman unveiled her breathtaking beauty and astonishing skills, the world was left in shock. The countryside girl they had scorned was, in reality, an all-powerful goddess!
The Prophecy: Pregnant With The Cold Prince's Heir
Prophecies and arranged marriages only exist in history books, right? That's what Giselle thought. Giselle returned home confused from 3 clinics after getting the news that she's pregnant. How can a virgin get pregnant? Upon arrival, she noticed a convoy of cars parked on her street, ignoring the buzz from the neighbors; she silently walked into her home. "Mom," she called out upon finding a group of bodyguards in their house. "Come to the living room, honey; we have guests," Mrs. Ramirez said. A nervous Giselle walked further into the house; the atmosphere was abit tense. Only then did she meet face-to-face with a man she thought existed only in her dreams. "Y... you," Giselle stuttered, her mouth open in awe. He stood tall, like a piece of art; his features were pleasing to the eye. His height, physique, and eyes would make even male models envious. He was dressed in an expensive suit with a golden crown on his head. Everything about him screamed wealth and power. "Are you done staring?" he asked; his voice was deep, smooth, and confident, snapping an embarrassed Giselle back to reality. Giselle didn't reply, but the man chuckled lightly, returning to his seat. "I believe your mother already explained the whereabouts of your father," he said. "If you sign this contract and become my bride, not only will you get the chance to see your father, but you'll also be the future queen of where I come from," he added. Giselle glared at the prince, ready to reject his offer. "Your Majesty, please give her time to think about it," Mrs. Ramirez cut in. She knew her daughter quite well; she wouldn't want to force her daughter into marriage, but she also wanted to rescue her husband. And so Giselle's life complications had just begun. First, the recurring nightmares; then the unexplained pregnancy; and now a prince trying to make her his bride. Will she agree to the marriage to save her father? What will happen to the strange baby she's carrying?
