My Name is NOT Cupcake novel Chapter 35

I didn't move. What finally broke me was when he started crying. I'd never even thought of Elias as being one to cry, but here he was sobbing, and it was all my fault. I broke him. I felt my eyes pool with unshed tears as I reached up and brushed his away. I couldn't let him cry because of me. I'd taken it too far. He froze and stared at me with wide eyes. I brushed my thumb over his cheek as another tear fell. He squeezed my hand in his and closed his eyes briefly.

"Please say something, Nova," he breathed as he kissed my hand.

"I don't want this," I said hoarsely. He broke into sobs again. I'd been fighting it so long that talking felt like a weight had been lifted off of me. My feelings and urges towards Elias were stronger. And then it hit me. There is was again.

The burning.

I felt it in my mark first. Then it spread through my body faster than last time. I arched as I screamed. Elias immediately covered his nose and stepped away from me. Minnie burst through the door with Taylor and Peyton on her heels.

"Oh no," Minnie breathed. Taylor turned just in time to pin Peyton to the wall. Peyton was growling and snarling and trying to fight towards me. Elias was growling at Peyton as he inched closer to me, his eyes began to glow blue. I groaned and tried to move away from the heat.

"Elias," I whined, bringing his full attention back to me. He was hovering over me before I finished saying his name. He kissed me eagerly. His mouth nipped and teased me. I could feel the heat leaving me slowly.

"Alpha, no!" Taylor yelled. The pain was diminishing, so I didn't want him to stop.
