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.

"Satisfied?" Hazel questioned.
She laid on top of Tobias in their now shared bedroom. He had succeeded in convincing her to leave the ball early so he could see his gift.
"For now. There is still some time left before we have to get up," Tobias replied, holding her in place so she would not leave him just yet.
Hazel rested her head on his bare chest. "You have tired me out and I have to be up soon to greet my parents. I will need to try not to yawn all day."
"Then, how about we just stay in bed?" Tobias proposed. His birthday celebration wasn't over just because the day had passed.
The kingdom was still celebrating so they should join everyone.
"I cannot do that. They missed the ball so we must greet them today. All the work from planning the ball is now coming over me at once. I do not have the strength to move but I must," Hazel said and then yawned as the need to sleep came over her.
