Death of the Hypotenuse
 The Bedwyn Saga / int_2aff6a25
comment
Death of the Hypotenuse: Slightly Dangerous begins with mention that Wulf's long term mistress has died of illness. She was never a love interest, their relationship was more of a business relationship, but it did mean he was completely free of any involvement when he met Christine.

Woman Scorned
 The Bedwyn Saga / int_4063acfd
comment
Woman Scorned: Freyja in the prequel series, though she scorned him first. By the time her story rolls around she's more depressed about it than angry. The daughter of one of Aidan's fellow officers. There was an understanding that when the time came, Aidan would ask for her hand out of practicality. She and her family run into Aidan and Eve in London, and were less than pleased to find he had aquired a wife in the few weeks since they'd seen him last.

Defiled Forever: Averted. Eve had consensual pre-marital sex before she met Aidan. She tells Aidan this after they're married but before they consumate it. Aidan's alright with it because he's not a virgin either. Well, he's alright with it until Eve's old lover shows back up.

 The Bedwyn Saga / int_c8d6d621
comment
I Will Wait for You: Technically averted. While lacking his memory, Alleyne can't marry Rachel, who he's "ruined" while under the impression she was a prostitute, because he specifically remembers that there was a woman waiting in Brussels for him. Much angst is had by the lovers even though the reader is aware that the woman waiting for him was his sister, Morgan.

comment
What the Hell, Hero?: Morgan delivers one of these to Marianne, the woman Wulf was supposed to marry, for framing Rosthorn for her rape. But because Marianne did it because she was a lesbian and didn't want to marry a man we're supposed to forgive her.

Chekhov's Gunman: In Slightly Tempted, while searching the battlefield for Alleyne's body, the Earl of Rosthorn notices a woman calling for help because her husband is injured. In Slightly Sinful we find out the woman's name is Rachel. And the injured man she claims is her husband? That would be Alleyne.

Acquitted Too Late: The Earl of Rosthorn wasn't executed, but his father who he loved dearly banished him to continental Europe for the supposed crime and died before the girl finally fessed up that it was all a lie. So his father died thinking his beloved son was a drunken rapist and thief.

Never Found the Body: Alleyne, which if you weren't aware that there was an "Alleyne's Story", would probably tip you off to the fact he's Not Quite Dead.
