Corrine.

I sighed slouching and already tired, this heels were killing mih. Why did I have to attend this farewell party again? Because I might find something suspicious.

After Erin's unexpectedly buried his brother, a public figure, the public decided to throw him a farewell party, that basically represented his funeral. A picture of Alfonso was set in the front on the platform that was placed there.

I moved slowly and sat with my family, it was a week after the dinner,one that I was pushing to forget the after incident.

The party was attended by influencial people, respectable charitable representative, CEO, celebrities, even the prime minister and governor was here, Reid was also here , I made a mental note to talk to him about my request.

" Do you think Magnus will attend?" Lexi asked curiously.
I swallowed the lump in my throat at his name I didn't want to think about him but it was getting more and more difficult.

"He isn't the kind of man to attend such things but I know he'll be here." Father said with so much surelity that I casted him a look before looking away.

Don't think of it.

" Mmmh. Excuse everyone." A voice echoed through out, looking up seeing a man dressed in a black tux, the man was a famous MC one of the most know and loved.

" My name is Seth McKinney. I know you all know mih but some don't. Today we're mourning the death of our beloved Alfonso Magnus." He muttered in the microphone, looking at everyone around him.

" We all know the good that he has done for all of us, despite his brother burying him without any consideration of the people who love him, we are still going to give him a proper farewell." Seth explained as if riling up a crowd the same way a politician does, and as always the people agreed clapping their hands.

" To Alfonso..." He shouted lifting the glass of champagne and everyone followed, that speech was as stupid and useless as the man himself. It made mih annoyed for some reason, maybe of the way he disrespected Erin but I blamed it all on Aria.

" To Alfonso..." The crowd cheered.

The air suddenly turned tense and thick, Erin, I thought a second later his presence adorned the place. He appeared on the stage, elegant and a million dollar bucks.The party was a black themed, everyone was dressed in their best black garments but the King, obviously the King. He wore, pure white suit with a light blue shirt, it reminded mih of my eyes. Every wulf, shifter stood up at his presence except the humans who were looking around before they stood up immediately. No one fucks with this man, even the prime minister was on his feet.

The crowd that was cheering a second ago was mum.

Magnus walked slowly his demeanor dangerous and intimidating, choking and tense. His hands were folded behind his back he walked towards Alfonso's portrait.
He stared at it for a while. Then he turned and looked at Seth, the look on his face was passive but anger that I could clearly see his followers could also feel it.

He stood infront of Seth, looking at him dead in the eyes, that the poor man took a step back.

" You celebrate him?" Erin asked with an amused look, taking a step closer to Seth, his low voice echoing in the quite room due to his proximity to the microphone.
