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 don't need to go so far," Hazel said, looking beside her at Tobias who had not gone about his way after dinner was over. "I will make it back to my room safely."
"That I will know only when I walk you back to your room," Tobias answered.
He was not leaving until he saw her walking down to her room.
"I recall that you are not allowed to enter where the women are staying. I hate to bring up your past, but I must remind you that there is talk of you being caught alone with a woman. It is understandable why the queen would forbid you from coming around this group. You have the maids behind us looking scared out of their minds," Hazel said, turning to look at the panicked women.
There were many signs that Tobias shouldn't be walking back with her no matter how sweet it was. Tobias was going to drive the queen mad if this continued for much longer.
