The King's Unbreakable Wife
“I cannot come to you with my problems when you have the weight of the kingdom on your shoulders. I would rather suffer in silence so I do not bother the king-” “Your husband,” Tobias corrected Hazel, placing his hands on her shoulders to comfort her as her eyes filled with tears. It pained him that he had not noticed how much the palace had been slowly breaking her. “I am your husband first. Do not hide your sadness from me,” he said, wiping away a single tear that slipped away with his thumb. … Hazel Wallace never thought she would make it far when she was picked to enter the selection for the next queen. In a surprise turn of events, she finds herself tangled up with the future king, Tobias Castro. Hazel once thought she would be strong enough to survive living in the palace walls. As queen and with Tobias by her side, she had nothing to fear. That was until the crown was placed on her head. Soon she realised the dangers in the palace and how not even the queen was safe from scheming men and women. Each day she spent in the palace, Hazel felt like a piece of her was slowly breaking away. Eventually, Hazel wanted nothing more than to run out of the palace, but after betrayals from people she thought she could trust, Hazel sought to become the person she was before entering the palace and get revenge on those who sought to take away her crown.

"Calm yourself, Linda. The selection is over but no need to make a mockery of yourself. You should put this energy into finding a husband rather than be excited to see Hazel," said Grant.
"It feels like a long time since I have seen Hazel. I must know how she is fairing in the palace. She is there without a friend by her side. I can only imagine how boring it is," Linda said, pitying Hazel.
"She is in the palace. There is no better place to be," Grant replied. "I will do what I can to get you to stay there with her."
"I changed my mind about that. I love Hazel, but living in the palace isn't for me. I am satisfied with visiting her throughout the day. Much would be said about me by Hazel's side when she is meant to be preparing to be queen. Don't worry about it anymore," Linda turned down the offer.
