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.

"Is her daughter missing or did she run off to get married? Why are they bringing this to me instead of settling it with the town guards? Fools," Tobias muttered, rubbing his aching neck where there was pain. "I should have left with Hazel."
"You should have and not called me here," said an unhappy Edgar. "Go to her so that I can go home. When you got married, I had hoped it meant that I wouldn't be bothered by you. Bored of her already?"
"Of course not. There isn't anyone that I love to be around more than Hazel. I'm just bored that she isn't here so thank you for coming," said Tobias, appreciating the company.
"You said that it was important. You disturbed my day. If there was a spare prince around this palace, I would have thrown you out of the window by now. I am leaving," Edgar announced, standing up from his seat.
