Micah tried to remember the last time he had a deep conversation with Hazel in the past, or even discussed the issues in his realm.
She was already the queen at that time, but he didn't give her any chance to understand the real problems that he had to face, until everything was too late and he lost the two people that he loved the most.
Hazel only knew the bright side, the happy side of the things around the palace. She learned how to host a party and handle the few nobles, who were still against the idea of him having a human as his mate.
However, he had never discussed anything important with her, because he would withdraw himself to fix things and only returned to her and their daughter when everything was under control again.
He didn't think it was a mistake until now.
"Tell me." Hazel's grip on his hands tightened, she pleaded with her eyes.
