## Biography

### Early life

Blake comes from a troubled home. At a young age, her brother was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. And ever since, Blake has been supporting and helping raise him, to a degree where even their father admits that she does a better job with than he does, or her mother for that matter given that her parents have separated. Fighting between them got so bad that she sneaked out the house with Danny one night and checked into a motel.

According to her former friends, family, and herself, she has always rejected digital media, and thus never owned a mobile phone or a computer.

### Bitten by a werewolf

After evacuating the school bus due to the nearing fire on the freeway, Blake is bitten by a werewolf. However, before running home, she saves Everett from a speeding car. Once home, she looks in the mirror at her acne scars and the bite mark on the left side of her lower back before joining her father and brother as they make plans to seek refuge at a shelter. Realizing that they'll never make it to the shelter in time, Blake proposes they go to a nearby motel instead, the same one she took Danny to that night her parents got into a six-hour fight and didn't even notice they were gone.

After discovering that her bite is nearly healed, as are her acne scars, Blake runs home at supernatural speed, where she and Everett are attacked by the werewolf but manage to escape unharmed. Once they're a safe distance away, Blake begins to have a panic attack, which Everett talks her through before parting ways, at which point, they're drawn back to not only each other, but Luna and Harlan as well, who reveal that they're werewolves.

Blake panics after Everett's claims of them being werewolves and runs off into the woods, with the three of them giving chased. She runs into the rescue crew, who instruct them to go home. And so, they drop her off at the motel, where Blake discovers that much like Everett, her bite has healed as well, but she also hallucinates having fangs. She then exits the bathroom and notices that someone has left a message. It's Everett's mysterious caller, warning her that she's in danger. So, as a precaution, Blake pushes the dresser in front of the door. When she awakens the following morning, she enlists in Danny's help to track her speed, or lack thereof, before being questioned by Investigator Ramsey. Afterward, she convenes with Everett, who she almost kisses until he gets a call from Connor, revealing that he's being hunted by the same creature that bit him on the freeway.

Blake, Everett, Luna, and Harlan are taken to the station for questioning. There, Blake learns that Phoebe turned her in as a possible arsonist suspect. Fortunately, the four of them don't remain in custody long, as the twins' father arrives and brings them home with him. Unfortunately, the Briggs don't have many answers. Making matters even more confusing, Blake is dreaming about sexual encounters with Everett. After confessing to Everett that she also got a call from a stranger, Blake plots her escape, with Everett cautiously following behind. Almost immediately after leaving the house, Everett is comes face to face with the werewolf. However, it ultimately decides not to kill them after discovering they've connected with the twins.

Blake follows Everett into the restroom at school after he suffers an anxiety attacks, which also appears to effect her, as well as the twins, who eventually join them. After Harlan attacks Everett and bares his fangs, Blake decides she wants no involvement in a pack if it means they become monsters and kill people. That night, she is tasked with watching Danny even though she's scheduled to work. From Danny, she learns that someone has been calling the motel phone for her, warning her that she can't make it without Everett and the twins. Blake ignores the warning and brings Danny to work with her. However, after he goes missing, she becomes concerned and screams his name off the rooftop, which alerts Everett, who finds Danny and returns him to Blake, who discovers that he was taken by the werewolf. Not long after, Luna and Harlan arrive, also having heard Blake's howl.

Blake and Everett gather with Harlan and Luna to discuss the missing cop and the fact that the werewolf went after her brother, which they all agree is due to the fact that the werewolf is trying to protect them as it seems them as it's pack, which the unknown caller later confirms before directing them to the scene of the latest attack, where they fail to save Nurse Hughes in time. After learning that the next attack will be at Tia's, the pack attends the kickback at her place, where Blake and Everett share their first kiss just before the werewolf attacks.

### Phoebe's death

Blake bumps into Phoebe while looking out the windows for the werewolf, forcing her to finally confront her former friend on why she distanced herself. About a year ago, Blake's dad came to her with her mom's phone and asked her to unlock it. When she did, he found messages from a guy named Rob. Blake's mom was cheating, leading to a fight between her parents, a loud fight that resulted in the police being called. Social Services took Danny for a week, and Blake was put in a foster home. Her whole life ruined by a phone, which Blake has never shared this with anyone until now. The following day, the pack convenes and learns from Malcolm that the hotshot crew killed the twins' mother and that their father then killed the crew. Additionally, the werewolf that's been killing everyone isn't their father, rather their brother, Baron.

Blake returns to the motel with plans to pack up, as her father has finally found them an apartment. However, upon her arrival, she discovers that Phoebe was killed, and her body was left in the bathtub of their room. Given the circumstances, Ramsey would like to bring her down for questioning, which Blake is agreeable to so long as she promises nothing will happen to Danny. Later that night, she convenes with the pack to enact Everett's plan by dressing up as Austin, the werewolf's next victim, and leading it to the medical freezer, where they lock the werewolf inside to slow its heart beat and bring it to a point of near death, at which point Baron returns to human form, and Austin stabs him with a silver coated knife.

The pack removes the silver-coated blade from Baron chest and takes him to Everett's house, where they learn that if Baron dies that Blake and Everett will become human again, putting the new lovers at odds, as Blake wishes to be normal, whilst Everett wants to hone his abilities. The following day, she returns to Everett's with Danny, who recognizes Baron from when he went missing in the parking garage and also reveals that Ramsey was there as well, leading Blake and Everett to suspect that she's somehow involved in all of this. Shortly after Everett leaves with the Briggs to take Baron to the hospital, Blake's dad arrives and reveals that Social Services has come to take her and Danny away. To make matters worse, they will most likely be split up. Ramsey then remarks that she has beautiful skin, but that it wasn't always like that. Something helped change things for the better. Ramsey wonders what Blake thinks about changing Danny for the better as well. While Blake may claim she doesn't want Danny to change and that he's fine the way he is, they both know she's lying.
