My Name is NOT Cupcake

Chapter 56

The next few weeks passed in a blur. The constant checkups with the doctor told us that the baby was Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

perfectly healthy. I was officially three months pregnant. Minnie let us practice with Rhett, as promised.

Elias needed all the help he could get. It was good. We were getting along fine and things were finally

looking up for us. Before I knew it, it was time for the Luna ceremony.

Anna's Tailor shop made me a dress that was completely white. Because of the protruding belly, it had

a high waist and flowed the rest of the way to my feet. Minnie had a cluster of girls do my hair and

makeup. It was really unnecessary if you asked me, but no one ever asked. Plus, Minnie said the

ceremony was tradition, and I wasn't trying to mess with tradition in this particular sense. Once I was

done-up, Minnie led me to a clearing in the woods. It was surrounded by tikki torches. The people were

barely visible in the glow of the fire. There were twinkle lights surrounding the pond at the edge of the

clearing. Minnie led me to it. She didn't tell me much about the ceremony, just a summary. Elias was

standing by the water and a priest was waiting for me in the water.

Elias smiled when he saw me. He gave me a quick kiss before he helped me into the water. The priest

held onto me gently as he held a hand up to the pack.

"Tonight, we welcome Novalyn Moore as Luna of the Rigor Moon pack. Is there any reason why this

woman should not be Luna?" the priest asked. It was silent for a moment before he continued.

"Novalyn Moore, you have chosen to accept your role as leader, mother, and giver. You shall be of kind

heart and pure spirit. Should you choose to accept it, you are agreeing to be the mother figure to the

pack. You shall put the needs of the pack first and rule beside our Alpha with a kindred spirit and gentle

hands. Do you accept?" he asked. I took a shaky breath.

"I, Novalyn Moore, of sound mind and free will, accept my role as Luna of the Rigor Moon pack," I

recited. Minnie made sure I knew that part. The priest pinched my nose and submerged me under the

water for a second before I resurfaced. Everyone cheered as Elias helped me out of the water. Elias

wrapped me in a towel and kissed me gently.

"I'm proud of you, cupcake," he whispered to me. I felt myself smile. Elias was back as Alpha, I was

Luna, and we were having a baby. Afterwards, there was a celebration. I was free to wear anything

semiformal. Minnie dressed me in a simple, long, grey sundress, which I was grateful for. Heading back

out to the party, I was stopped by Nolan. I smiled and hugged him.

"Nolan, what are you doing here?" I asked. He smiled back at me.

"Alpha Elias invited me to your Luna ceremony," he said. I felt hands reach around me to rest on my

stomach and immediately knew whom it was. I smiled at Elias.

"You did that? You invited my brother?" I asked. Elias kissed my head.

"Yeah, I knew how much it would mean to you. Your dad, Alpha Peter, and his pup, Mason should be

around here as well," he said. I turned in his arms and smiled at him as my eyes started to water.

"You did that for me? You're not mad still?" I asked softly. He cupped my face in his hands and kissed

me gently.

"I would do anything for you, cupcake. Plus, I'm confident in us, and if I learned anything, it's that the

more I try to rein you in, the wilder you want to be. I can't control you, I know that, so I'll give you what

you want and hopefully that'll be enough to keep you here with me," he explained. I smiled as a happy

tear ran down my cheek.
