My Name is NOT Cupcake

Chapter 42

"Then it's settled," Mathias said before he turned to look at me again. "Nova, if you have any trouble,

have Alpha Peter notify me. I hope to meet you again soon... under different circumstances of course,"

he said before he shook Peter's hand and left. Elias turned to me in a last stitch attempt. He rushed

forward and took my hand in his.

"Nova, please," he begged. That comforting feeling shot up my arm and made me sign in relief. I

quickly pulled my hand away.

"You can see me in a week. I have a phone now... or again since you took away my phone the first

time. You can get my number from my brother," I said before I turned and went inside the cabin. I was

tired and emotionally exhausted. With everything that went on, I still couldn't forget the fact that I was

pregnant. I put my hand on my stomach subconsciously as I stood in the middle of the kitchen.

A baby...

If my math was correct, I was two weeks pregnant.

"Nova!" I heard my brother call. I opened the door and saw Nolan and Mason standing there. Everyone

else had left the clearing.

"What are you two doing?" I asked.

"You have to invite us inside. The cabin is enchanted remember?" Mason said sheepishly. My eyes

widened slightly.

"You were serious about that?" I asked They both nodded. I invited them inside and went back to the

kitchen. I began opening random cabinets until I found a glass. I ran sink water into it before leaning my

back and hands against the counter. I sighed and looked at the glass sitting on the counter as my brain

went over all the events that just happened before I could stop it.

"Are you okay, little one?" Mason asked as he entered the kitchen with Nolan. I shrugged as they came

closer. I was on the verge of tears again. I sniffled and went to the living room with my glass, setting it

down on the glass coffee table. I clasped my hands in my lap and shivered slightly. Mason wrapped a

blanket around my shoulders.

"All that fighting and death and for what?" I practically whispered. Nolan and Mason sat on either side

of me and hugged me.

"We're going to keep you here, just in case. The cabin is enchanted so that only you allow can enter.

Unless you invite them inside, they'll be stuck on the outside. I suggest you keep it only Nolan, you,

and me," Mason explained.

"Why is it up to me?" I asked confused.

"You were the first to enter the house. You'll be safe here as long as you don't invite anyone else

inside," Mason explained. I sighed and shook my head.

"I can't believe I'm... carrying a person inside of me. I didn't want Elias' baby," I muttered more to myself Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

than to them.

"Well, you did mate with an Alpha while you were in heat. What did you think would happen?" Nolan

said, getting off the couch.

"That's the thing, I didn't know! Maybe I would have if anyone bothered to tell me anything. But you

both kept me in the dark! You let me be naïve and now look where that got us! I know you've been

living this ridiculousness your whole life, but I only learned about it when I saw my kidnapper turn into a

wolf to fight off Mason, who was also a wolf, so forgive me if I'm not too educated in the 'what happens

when' area," I snapped at him as I stood. I released a heavy breath when I finished talking and crossed

my arms. My tears made up of shock, anger, and sadness spilled over and on to my cheeks.

"I couldn't tell you, Nova. Okay? I'm sorry I couldn't tell you. Is that what you wanted to hear? I'm sorry

that I didn't want you caught up in all of this in the first place," Nolan snapped back. My tears doubled

as my face fell.

God, I was such a cry baby.

But his words hurt. They sliced through me like the cold hard truth.

"I'm going to bed," I said softly. I walked through the hallway and stopped in the room that had my bag

by the door. I guess this was mine. I took the bag inside and took a shower, as I got ready for bed. I

curled up on the bed and crossed my arms over my stomach.

I did it.

I got what I wanted.

I know the truth about my family. I'm back home. Elias had to leave me alone. I was free to think and be

as I pleased.

So why did it feel like I just lost something?
