“So no one knows what happened to his bloodline?” I frowned, “How could an entire bloodline fade into history?”

Many didn’t develop their own wolf, inhibiting them from ever shifting. They simply had heightened strength and sometimes heightened senses. Those who developed wolves, were brought into the pack-life. Half-blood’s could still had mates, and could bear children all the same. Hundreds of years ago, werewolves hated half-bloods. Time’s have changed since then, and they are no longer hated. We accept half-bloods the way

Instead of green and purple, the lights were red and white. It gave everything in the club a red-tinged hue. The
