My Name is NOT Cupcake

Chapter 37

"Elias still fooled around with other women while you were there?" he asked shocked. I shrugged

before I nodded. I felt embarrassed. "Dad," Mason said. Apparently, it was enough.

"Alright, she's staying," Peter said before he walked away. Mason set me up in a guest room before he

sat on the bed with me and played with my hand. Mason eventually sighed and shook his head.

"You're not even my mate and I wouldn't dare to even think about cheating on you. You're too good for

that," he said with a small smile towards me.

"So... Nolan has known that he was a werewolf the whole time?" I asked, changing the subject. Mason

nodded.

"Right around the time he was about to shift, we explained everything to him. We kept an eye on you Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

just in case, but you never showed the signs. That's how we knew you were completely human. Nolan

will be here soon. You 're safe for now, Nova," he assured me. Mason made me lay down and rubbed

my back like he used to do. It was nice and made me nostalgic.

"I missed you," I whispered honestly. Mason laid down behind me and kissed the back of my shoulder.

My mark ached a bit, but I ignored it as it quickly went away.

"I missed you too, little one," he said just as softly. "I'm sorry I let this happen. I should've come for you

sooner, or done something," he said, and I knew he truly was sorry.

"You didn't know. It's okay, Mason," I said.

"Nova," I heard my brother's relieved voice. I sat up only to be wrapped up in another bone-crushing

hug. "I'm so sorry," Nolan said as well. I shook my head as he released me from the hug. I found myself

glaring at him as I hit his arm.

"You're a freaking werewolf?! Why didn't you tell me!" I yelled at him.

"We can't tell anyone unless it's our mate... not even family," he tried to explain.

"But we're twins!" I yelled at him again. Nolan only chuckled and hugged me again.

"I missed you too," Nolan said. He pulled back and his eyes caught on my collar. His fingers grazed the

top of the scar, immediately embarrassing me. "I can't believe he let this happen," Nolan said seriously.

I felt the strong desire to defend Elias, but I knew it was just the stupid mate bond pushing me to do it.

"He wasn't there," I shrugged. "He was doing pack business or whatever," I said dismissively.

"That's no excuse. She shouldn't have been anywhere near you," Mason chimed in. Nolan sighed and

kissed my head before he stood.

"Get some rest. I'll tell dad you're safe with us. When it's safe I'll being him to see you," Nolan said. I

grabbed his arm and stopped him.

"Does dad know about all of this?" I asked curiously. Nolan nodded.

"Mom was his mate. She told him everything. She told him about me so I would have some help and

he knew that werewolves were behind your kidnapping," he explained. I glared at him.

"Great, so I was literally the only one who had no idea what was going on? Awesome," I said

sarcastically, rolling my eyes. I sighed and laid back down. That was a lot to take in on sitting. Mason

pulled the covers over me and wrapped an arm around me.

"I'll stay with her," Mason said to Nolan. Nolan rolled his eyes.

"Of course you will," he muttered before he kissed my head. "Goodnight, little sis," he said playfully.

"Only by 5 minutes," I said as the corners of my mouth pulled up into a ghost of a smile slightly. Nolan

smiled at me before he left. The door was closed and the lights were turned off behind him. I was in the

dark, alone with Mason.

"How do I get rid of it? How do I get rid of the mate bond and go back to my normal life?" I asked

quietly in the dark. There was a moment of silence as Mason hesitated.

"It's too late for that now," he said honestly. I closed my eyes as a tear rolled out. I hated to admit it, but

I actually missed Elias.
