My Brother's Best Friend Is My Mate
Chapter 50: Visit

The days passed by slowly and soon it was Thursday. I had taken a few days off from school, due to the doctors orders, but I was feeling better in no time. It's safe to say that the treatment and antibiotics I got from the doctors actually worked and I wasn't pushing myself too much. I was bored out of my mind from just sitting down for days, not doing anything, and I was happy when Thursday finally came. Tomorrow was my birthday, I was finally 18! I was elated for the arrival of my much anticipated birthday but got chills when I remembered the last party I had been to.

Mom had come visited me this morning, to check up on how I was doing. She looked much better now, she even said she was feeling better because as long as I was alright, she was alright. My mom is such a kind, gentle creature, I don't know what I would do without her.

"You ok?" Spencer's voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I looked up to see her sitting on the counter if the huge kitchen. She was wearing a green turtleneck sweater and her hair was put up in a messy bun. I hadn't even heard her come in the kitchen. Oh, wait, she's a werewolf.

"Yeah." I answered with a blank mind. During the past few days, Spencer had told me all about werewolves, and their abilities. Speed, strength, advanced senses, endurance, agility, night vision and even immortality. I found all of this information interesting although, in the beginning I had done some research for myself. Spencer even said some werewolves had the ability to heal a sick or injured person. It was rare to have that ability, and because of that, many who possessed that type of power were hunted and captured.

"I'm going down at the pack house, want to come?" Spencer asked. She jumped off the counter and didn't even wait for me to answer. My bestfriend just grabbed my hand and pulled me through the house. Throwing the wooden, and expensive, front door open, she ran outside like a wild child.

"Liam told me to stay inside the house. I'm suppose to be resting." I told Spencer who laughed. She spun around to face me.

"What's he going to do? Punish us? Come on, live a little!" My bestfriend exclaimed and stared at me with puppy eyes.

"Fine." I finally gave in. Don't get me wrong, I want to get out of the house really bad but I don't want to risk getting Spencer in trouble, or worse, hurt. Or anyone else for that matter. It seems as if everywhere I go, some evil spirit follows me and hurts anyone around me. I follow Spencer towards a huge settlement where, from what I've learnt, is where most of the werewolves of this pack live. Some smaller families live in independent individual houses but are close to the pack house, just in case of an emergency or the need for help.

"Welcome to the Moon Stone pack!" Spencer says with as much enthusiasm as I have being here. A few children are wandering around, talking, laughing and playing with one another and they all look happy with what they're doing. One little girl with a melting popsicle in her hand has not stopped looking at us ever since we've gotten here. A group of elderly women are seated by a table near the playing children, as if unconsciously watching them and keeping them safe. The pack house is

"We're going inside, I'm gonna visit someone. You don't have to come if you don't want to." Spencer assures me.

"I want to come." I tell Spencer

firmly. She nods and motions for me

to follow her up the steps of the huge house. How rich must Liam be to have a entire mansion for himself, and also run another pack house just as big? I'm starting to think I judged his character a little too quickly. A few weeks ago he was just a handsome stranger who I knew nothing about. It's funny how your perspective of people can change in a short time. Spencer turns the lock of the front door and lets in herself, as well as me. The interior of the house is just as beautiful and decorative as the exterior. Paintings hung on the walls like children's paintings and a huge chandelier danced over our heads as we passed through the entrance of the house.

"Here." Spencer instructed as she walked over to a stairway. A group of children ran down the stairs just as we were about to start up them Three of them immediately jumped on Spencer, tackling her to the floor and almost laughed. All of them were girls, and looked like they were still in preschool. Two clung to Spencer's feet as she struggled to get up from the three weighing her down.

"Beta Spencer, we're so happy to see you!" One of them, a pretty blonde with sparkling blue eyes, exclaimed. Spencer laughed and hugged them. A beautiful brown haired one with hazel eyes pointed at me.

"Isn't that Luna Emerald, the one Alpha Liam always talks about?" She asked and my eyes widened. Spencer gave me a evil grin and told the girl I was the person.

"You look was prettier than Liam says you are." She told me as the others slowly nodded their heads in agreement and I blushed furiously.

"Okay, enough compliments, you're making me jealous." Spencer says jokingly and the little girl's burst into laughter.

"Annalise, do you know where Elder Daciana is?" Spencer asked the pretty blonde.

"She's up in her room making the

costumes for our Halloween party." Annalise shared. Spencer thanked the girls and we went on our way after they went outside to play with the rest of the children. Thankfully, the steps of this house were limited and within a few minutes we were heading towards Elder Daciana's room. Spencer knocked once, twice.

"Mother Daciana, it's Spencer can I come in?"
