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.

"Grandfather! I wasn't told that you would be visiting today," Linda said, surprised to see Grant standing before her. "My parents aren't home. Only Liam is here with me while the others take over training."
"I came to see you," Grant replied.
"Oh. What for? I don't need to go to the palace today," Linda answered, still confused as to why he was there. It was a little late for him to be thinking of escorting her to the palace.
"Can't I come see you when I miss you?" Grant questioned, pretending to be sad.
"Of course you can. It has been long since we've all sat together for dinner or just to have fun. Will you be staying long enough to stay here for dinner? We can call for grandmother to come," Linda suggested.
These days Linda was only seeing Grant and not her grandmother. It was odd how her grandmother was always too busy to visit and then too busy if Linda went to her. It was like they weren't welcomed at their grandparents home.
