The Pains of Guilt WTAH 2

Third-person POV

Three years have passed since Twilight had last seen Takumi. It was bad enough that she was hurt by her mate. Again. But this time, someone decided that her life wasn't enough of a mess, and she was pregnant.

In the end, she decided to keep it, which wasn't a bad thing per se because sooner or later, she’d need an heir, which saved her the trouble of IVF rounds. Plus, she highly doubted that she’d be blessed with a third mate to have pups with because things are supposed to work with the first or second mate. She also wasn't keen on being blessed with another one either. And as ridiculous as it sounds, Tis also gave up on the idea of a mate and she was inactive for a whole month. All the poor wolf wanted more than anything was a mate, not an arm and a leg.

She didn't tell anyone the whole story. She had only said that things between them didn't work out and that it just wasn't meant to be. The only person who knew was Mitsuri, and she promised not to tell. Her dad too and Etsuko, being an Oracle and all.

She loves her pack and all, but she found it a tiny bit irritating receiving all that sympathy, more so from the she-wolves. She appreciated the support, but she wasn’t one to look for sympathy from others.
