Semua Bab The Pains of Guilt (WTAH series book 2): Bab 31 - Bab 40

Third-person POVTrey’s nose caught the familiar scent of freshly baked sugar cookies, but he figured it was impossible and concluded that he'd finally lost it.“I thought I'd find you here. Stop flooding my phone with messages if I clearly won't answer back.”“Ams...whoa, what happened to your hair? Were you fighting with a curling iron or something? It looks like you lost.”“I don't own a curling iron. Anyway, my hair always gets frizzy whenever the air gets too humid or dry and I didn’t have a hair tie on me to... stop laughing. It's not funny.”“If it's not funny then why am I laughing?”“Because you're a dick.”“Or because it is funny. But you're right, it's not funny.”“Really?”“Yeah. It's hilarious.”“You're the dickiest dick of all time.”“I can’t even take your insult seriously.”She couldn't deny that his one dimpled smile was making it hard for her to stay mad. Until he pinched her arm.“What the fuck was that for?”“Just checking to see if you're real. Glad to know that I

Later...Twilight POV“Which one of them was it?” Mitsu asked.“You know; you shouldn’t ask questions like that when you know I won’t know who or what you’re talking about.”“Which one of the Alphas in the secret husband? It was a little hard to pinpoint with so many scents in one room and he didn’t give himself away either. But at least it made the list of possibilities much shorter.”“And you think I’ll just fess up?”“Ok, you make a fair point, but will you at least tell me which ones are unmated?”“Not happening.”“I’ll find out one way or another. I have something else to ask.”“Sure.”“Well, tomorrow is Shin’s final verdict. Be honest with me. How do things look for him?”“Logically speaking, I’d say pretty good since he hasn’t done anything wrong as far as I know, and I doubt he’ll mess up after coming so far.”“Oh.” She breathed a sigh of relief. I get that she's worried about him, but I have a feeling that it's more to it than that.“Is there anything else you wanted to ask?”

A few days later…Third-person POV"Alpha, there's a situation at the border," Sosuke mind-linked."Another Rogue?""No. A wolf named Kai is here and said he needs to see you. He's also badly injured.""Let him through and take him to the hospital. I'll meet him there."“Alright.”Afterwards, she left Natsumi with her dad and got to the hospital as fast as possible. When she got there, Kai was in a worse state than she had imagined. The doctors told her that he had passed out and seemed to have alarming amounts of wolfsbane in his bloodstream. They also weren’t sure when or even if he’d wake, but they assured her they’d do everything they could to get him into a stable condition.She spent some time pacing around the hallway and tried a few times to call Trey’s office, but no one picked up. She contemplated going over there but thought it’d be better to know what was going on before going, and Kai was her only source of information.After a while, one of the doctors came out.“How is

Third-person POVSeconds later, a body crashed through the office's window."Oof, he fucked up," Youhei commented."You hit the wrong woman, you pathetic piece of crap," Twilight said while coming out of the pack house and wiping the blood from her nose. "Come on and duel me if you're the so-called man you claim to be. I'll even level the playing field and not involve shifting or weapons. Unless you’re scared of facing little old me as I am."He got up and dropped all the weapons he had before taking his stance. Anyone would count it as him accepting her challenge.He tried to lunge at her, but she slid under him, causing him to miss and she went straight for a kick to the back of his knees while his back was still turned.She could tell she had wounded his ego when she challenged him and he’d most likely be fuelled by rage. It didn’t bother her because she thought she could somehow use it against him to win.He had his own claws out and charged at her. He almost ripped her stomach op

The next night…Third-person POV“May I ask you something?” Trey asked.“You already are but sure.”“I’m curious to know what you do that makes you so tired most of the time. I get that you have a pack and pup to care of, but it doesn’t always add up.”“I have a job, but I do work from home most of the time. Other than that, I do other small things, like helping out in the kitchen whenever we have a pack dinner and the farms on Mondays and Wednesdays. I mostly got into all that after Natsumi’s dad and I split up to keep myself busy. I thought I’d stop after a while, but I guess enjoy it more than I thought I would.”“Would it make any difference if I suggested that you slow down?”“No. Your words would just go in one ear and out the other.”“I thought so,” He sighed."Anyway, you never told me about what you do for work. I remember you mentioning something about pups that one time."“I'm a certified child psychologist. I like working with them, and they feel the same.”“Ah, that's why
