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 was not happy to see who had disturbed them. If only they had been quicker to leave their husband's side then they would not have been spotted. At least they were closer to the room where they were to sit in whilst the men drank.
Emma was the one to interrupt Eleanor and seemed to know that she had come at the wrong time, but still pushed her way to the front.
Hazel might have her troubles but she was not out of the loop that Emma was hardly a friend of Alessandra and Eleanor. Then there was Alessandra's half-sister who was being looked into as the one to harm Alessandra's face and a friend of the sister named Grace.
Other young women were waiting to speak to Hazel, but it was these three that stuck out the most and not for a good reason.
Though Hazel wanted to hear what Eleanor had to say, she had to entertain the other women for now.
