My Name is NOT Cupcake novel 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 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'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.
