To those on the outside, May Winters appears to be nothing more than a completely normal seventeen year old. She has a loving mother, an overprotective father and not forgetting her annoying, big brother. Struggling to finish high school, more time is spent organizing her social life and breaking the rules put down by her parents. Totally normal right? Wrong.

Considering she has yet to actually shift and shows few signs of ever doing so, she is more human than wolf. It doesn't make trying to work out where she belongs in the world any easier though, especially when dealing with pack life.
