Rejected the Prince, Married His Uncle

Betrayed to death by the Crown Prince, Elowen wakes up at seventeen and boldly rejects him—choosing his comatose uncle, the feared Duke Cassian. While the arrogant Prince assumes she's playing hard to get, Elowen takes control of the estate and ruthlessly crushes every trap set by the royals. But on the night an intruder breaks into her room, the "living corpse" husband suddenly awakens to save her, claiming her as his own.
