All Chapters of The Pains of Guilt (WTAH series book 2): Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Trey POVWhile on my run, I caught a familiar scent. I'm hoping that my nose was playing tricks on me but lo and behold, you can already guess who was in the middle of the woods. Alone. Kai was going to be in deep shit when I get back. She didn't notice me yet. Instead of approaching her, I sat there. I was curious to know what she was so focused on.“Who knew her wolf would be this fine-looking? Size and all. I'm more impressed than intimidated. A little aroused even,” I heard Hunter say.“Quit it, she's not ours anymore.” But I'll admit, her wolf is no doubt a sight for sore eyes.“I wonder why, jackass. And cut the crap, there's a bond forming. You feel it, I feel it and I'm sure she and her wolf do too.”“Doesn't mean she'll accept it.”“She hasn't said anything yet so I wouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions like a rabbit on steroids if I were you.”Turned out she was just looking at the falling snow and licked off some that got on her face. After that, she rolled around in

Trey POV“It's her, isn't it?” Daisuke asked.“Who?”“You know who.”“I don't know what you're talking about.”“Ok then let me refresh your memory. Your wife or is she someone else?”“Don't you have better things to do?”“I guess you're right. I should start getting to know her better. Maybe I should ask Kai what she's like since you obviously won't. Then maybe I'll start planning on how to spoil my godchild or children.”“That's not what I meant, moron.”“Whatever you say. How old is she again?”“Why do you want to know?”“Are you hiding something?”“Goddess, she’s 22 going on 23.”“Woah.”This is why I didn’t want to say it.“I didn’t know you liked them that young.”“Come on, seriously?”“I’m kidding. But on a serious note, are you sure you want her? Honestly, it doesn’t look good for you and I doubt her father will accept it.”“You’re two years older than me so the stunt you pulled would get you into trouble too. Besides, we’re married so it’s too late for it to matter.”“Isn’t we

Trey POVI knew the look in her eyes all too well and, from first-hand experience, that all hell was about to break loose.Without wasting any time, I took her hand and led her outside. When she tried to go back in, I pulled her into my arms and wasn't planning on letting go.“Let me go.” She demanded while struggling. I could feel her wolf trying to take over and I was hoping to keep her restrained this time.“Calm down. Think about the consequences, it's not worth it.”When her eyes went back to their normal colour, I breathed a sigh of relief.“What was that about?”“I don't know.” She shrugged. “By the way, what was with the Ams?”“You told me about your names when we went drinking. I wasn’t sure what to call you in that situation. Too soon?”“No one’s ever called me by it so I don’t know. Do whatever I guess.”“Right. So, why did you lie to everyone and say your pup’s father died?”It was pretty shocking when news got around that she had given birth without anyone knowing that sh

The next morning…Third-person POVTrey wasn’t there when she woke up, but he had left a message on her phone, apologising for leaving without saying anything and saying that he had put the pillows and blankets back in her closet.He had also left a gift basket with a variety of snacks, berries and a bottle of whiskey.Later at the park…“I’m thinking of potty training Natsumi.” She told Takumi.“Oh?”“Yeah. Lately, she’s been embarrassed about asking for a diaper change. Apparently, it’s a sign to start potty training. But it’s entirely up to her. You can help if you want to. That's if she wants to try it.”“Sure.”“Give me a sec. Tsumi, would you like to use the potty on your own?”“No mowe baby pants?”“Yes.”“Ok, I twy.”“Well, that was easy,” He commented.“No kidding. I was thinking of using the three-day potty-training method if she said yes.”“How does it work?”“Basically, she'll be going commando for three days and having extra liquids and fibre. So whatever nice rugs you do

Third-person POVWhen she woke up, she found herself already shifted and back at the cabin with tons of blankets and clothes on. She also noticed that the fireplace was lit and that she had been sleeping on the couch with her head on Trey’s lap. She knew that he was awake when he began caressing her behind her eyes, but she stayed like that and pretended that she was still sleeping. Mostly because she didn’t want to move and was more than happy to stay that way forever.But she then sneezed, and he stopped.“Well, I guess I’m busted,” She said.When she sat up, he pulled her into a tight embrace.“Goddess, I’m so glad you’re ok.”“What are you talking about?”“Long story short, I woke up to find you had shifted. When I brought you, the time told me that we were out for about an hour. But geez, you should’ve told me that you shift back in your sleep so I wouldn’t have let us sleep outside.”“Thing is, I don’t. It’s only the second time that’s it happened, and the first time was years a
