Lucas POV

The morning council session was pure agony with each ticking second. The ministers babbled about the kingdom's issues. Their voices droned on like buzzing flies.

I nodded at the appropriate moments, signed three royal decrees, and kept my face straight as iron, refusing to let anyone see the weakness rotting me from the inside out.

The moment the session was dismissed and the hall cleared, I lifted my hand. "Lord Victor. Remain behind."

The head of House Brandon paused near the door

  • Body Swapped With The Alpha King: Chaos Unleashed.   Chapter 62: Wanted

    Serene’s POVHe was actually getting married.The news hovered in the air like smoke, choking me every time I tried to draw a breath. Lucas Thorne had announced his marriage to Eloisa Brandon, and it was official.While I sat in this dusty room, nursing a bitter hangover, he was preparing to put a crown on the head of the woman I hated the most.Of course he is, I thought bitterly, my fingers digging into the corner of the desk until my nails scraped against it.He was a King, and he would always prioritize his throne over anything… including me.I cursed under my breath and raked my fingers through my hair. A knock at the front door broke me from my miserable thoughts, and I walked over to open it.Kyros was on the opposite side, sporting a bright smile on his face. I frowned, raising my eyebrows.“I wasn’t expecting you…” I said slowly. “Do you need something?”He shook his head. “I just wanted to check on you. Are you fine?”"Just... thinking," I lied, stepping back to open the doo

  • Body Swapped With The Alpha King: Chaos Unleashed.   Chapter 61: A New Life

    Lucas POV"Are you out of your mind?”I flung the scroll to the ground, glaring into the eyes of the elder mage.The old man didn't even blink. He stood calmly, his hands resting on his staff, his face unbothered by my rage. Beside him, James looked as though he were about to faint, his hands trembling as he stared between us."I do not forge the stars, nor do I write the threads of destiny, Your Majesty," the mage said. "The ladies listed on that scroll are the only noblewomen in the entire kingdom born under the alignment of the Astral Star."I scoffed, a dark laugh escaping my throat as I tapped a single finger against the top name on the list."Eloisa Brandon," I snarled, my eyes narrowing into slits. "You want me to believe that her name found its way to this list by coincidence?”Why did I even bother trusting him in the first place? I should have known that Victor wouldn’t miss the opportunity to sink his claws into this situation. "Sire," the mage countered, leaning forward

  • Body Swapped With The Alpha King: Chaos Unleashed.   Chapter 60: News from the palace 

    Serene’s POV I picked up the mug, taking a hesitant sip. The liquid was bitter and burned like fire as it slid down my throat. I squeezed my eyes shut, coughing. "It’s terrible."Kyros laughed aloud. "You’ll get used to it, don’t worry."I stared into the drink, seeing my own reflection in the foam. Lucas. His face flashed in my mind, especially the way his eyes were filled with mistrust.An unbearable pang of hatred and grief exploded in my chest.Without thinking, I lifted the mug to my lips and chugged the rest of the bitter alcohol down, letting the burning heat drown out the agonising noise in my mind."Whoa!" Kyros gasped, his eyes widening in shock. "Slow down, small wildcat!""Another one," I demanded, slamming the empty mug onto the table.One drink turned into two, and two turned into four.As the hours dragged on, the alcohol flooded through my system, washing away my inhibitions and tearing down the dam holding back my emotions. I began drinking faster and faster, tryi

  • Body Swapped With The Alpha King: Chaos Unleashed.   Chapter 59: Have a drink? 

    Serene’s POVThe afternoon sun poured through the dusty window of the study, casting orange shadows across the desk.I sat alone, staring down at the torn half of the document resting in my hands. The edges were jagged where Lucas and I had ripped it apart in our furious tug-of-war. My thumb traced the faded ink, my heart growing heavier with every passing second.I was stunned to find more pages in the document, and what it held was enough to make my stomach turn into a nauseating knot. It detailed the truth of how Lucas’s father had spent his last days consumed by poison and how he had signed the death warrant that condemned my father, Arthur Ashton, and my mother to the executioner's block.“He knew,” I whispered bitterly, my eyes burning as tears threatened to spill. “Lucas knew what his father was, and he still defended his lineage over my family's blood.”A knock at the open door broke the stifling silence."Serene, darling?" Martha stepped into the study along with Lily, who

"Lord Victor. Remain behind."The head of House Brandon paused near the door, bowing before stepping back. "Your Majesty? How may I serve you today?"I leaned forward on the throne, resting my elbows on my knees, my eyes boring into his own. "I want the truth and only the truth, Brandon.” “As you wish, sire.” He responded, meeting my stare.I nodded and then asked, “The document… why did you give it to another?” Victor blinked, his mouth opening and closing for a moment. Then he cleared his throat. "Sire... I am not certain I understand-""Do not play games with me,"

  • Body Swapped With The Alpha King: Chaos Unleashed.   Chapter 57: Love and Hate

    Lucas POVI slammed my palm against the desk, and it cracked in two. Everything on it, from the documents to the ink, splattered on the floor, but my heart was pounding with anger. I grabbed the water pitcher and threw it at the wall, watching as it exploded into pieces, water trickling down to the floor. "Your Majesty. Please, calm down." James pleaded, wringing his hands in panic as he hovered near the door.I growled and slammed my fist into the wall, but it still did nothing for the fire burning in my chest. "Calm down?" I roared, my voice trembling with anger. "How can I be calm, James? If you were in my shoes, would you be calm? Tell me?”I spun around to face him, but it felt like my heart was suddenly ripped out of my chest. The pain that followed was so intense that my vision went black around the edges. I gasped, stumbling backwards until my thighs hit the armchair. James exclaimed and rushed over to me, fussing incessantly. “Stop,” I wheezed out and clutched my chest,
