  masolo.com seems to be a live web site – name already taken

  for anything else you have 48 hours after you register a domain name to cancel it – the name can’t be edited or the spelling changed – you need to get a new name spelled the way you want –

  Advice – get the new name before canceling the old one – make sure the name you want is not taken – do a whois and try to visit the site to make sure name is not taken

  If you own masolo.com – you can map it to any blog here – that site sells wood – is that domain name yours? You could probably have the staff transfer the domain mapping if you want and not need to pay again for mapping –

  consommonscongolais.com. – has been registered since January so no refund on the registration or mapping

  But if you cancel the mapping and registration for consommonscongolais.com. – then all the bookmarks to that site and all the search results will not reach your site

  WordPress.COM did not make the mistake or you failed to check the domain name after you bought it – so after 48 hours they are off the hook and you accepted the domain name as valid

  Guess I am still a bit confused on exactly what you would like to do.
