Chapter 55. Unexpected Meet at Funeral

SEBASTIAN’S POV

“How long will the funeral service last?” Catherine asked while seated on the edge of the bed.

“In the text message, it said it shouldn’t take more than three days,” I replied, looking at myself in the mirror as I slipped on my suit jacket.

When an Alpha King passes away, the funeral services typically last for two or three days as the case may be. On the first day, family members, other Alpha Kings, and important guests gather. The second day is dedicated to the wake-keeping and ceremonial customs, which take place the day before the main event. During this time, candles are lit, incense is burned, and other symbolic rituals are performed to the moon goddess, asking her to accept the king’s soul and honour him as a king in the afterlife. On the final day, the main event takes place. The body is laid to rest on the ground. Eulogies and tributes are given, and after the closing remarks, a gathering will be held at his castle for a reception.
