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.

"You've been smiling since we got into the carriage. Have you forgotten what outside of the palace is like?" Tobias questioned, enjoying the view across from him.
"What outside the palace looks like is not something I will forget. It is a beautiful day with all the snow. This is better than the walk I suggested that we take. I am surprised there wasn't any noise," Hazel said as she had anticipated that there would be a few men to try to stop them. "Does the court know where we are going?"
"I've entrusted our location to one of them. Kenneth knows where we are going as well as Liam and Edgar. They will come to us should we be needed, but I've instructed them that it is only for important matters," Tobias replied.
"Though Liam is in the palace, I haven't seen much of him. Every day I look forward to him bringing news about what has been happening to the maids. I want the answer soon. Maybe when we return, we might finally have the answer we seek," said Hazel.
