What if some people were born with a superpower and the world around them either fears them or wants to use them? It makes it nearly impossible for superhumans to lead normal lives without constantly having to look over their shoulder. Especially with a shadowy organisation hunting them. But still, this little found family tries. Though, their interpersonal drama doesn’t help. And all of them are working through their own issues. Eventually.

Varaine Woods

Deep in the mountains of British Columbia lies Varaine Woods. It's been known as a kind, progressive and protective werewolf pack for decades. It's filled with odd pairs that more traditional packs would scoff at, but the Varaines pride themselves in being welcoming. The upcoming generation is still figuring their stuff out; their bonds, their place in the pack, how they want to express their dynamics. Amongst it all, young Alpha-to-be Grey Varaine is desperately hoping his best friend will be his mate, while said best friend Ralph has always assumed he'd be Grey's Beta one day.
