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.

"Hazel, you said that you knew what they would speak of but you didn't say anything about agreeing to it. You should know that none of them will let you forget what you said today and you won't be able to go back on your word. You gave them what they wanted," Tobias said.
Tobias tried his best not to yell because Hazel wouldn't deserve it.
"I know what I did. It was the only thing that would silence them. I didn't give a time frame to how long before I would bring up letting you have someone else. I am just having hope in myself that I will have a child before you need to go through selecting another woman. Hopefully, this moment of peace will allow me that," Hazel replied, hoping for the best.
"They all have the time for when you should have a child by in their heads. They are not kind enough to wait. I want you to stop trying to race against time to have a child. Regardless of how much time passes, I am sticking my word," Tobias promised.
