Kate was Chris' younger sister and they used to be close as children. However, as adults, Kate and Chris grew distant from each other. According to her, Chris always finds a way to make her look like the bad guy in situations, despite it being her fault. Chris also disapproved of Kate teaching Allison about their family history of werewolf hunters. Despite his dislike towards werewolves at the time, Chris was horrified when he learned about Kate's role in the Hale Family Fire and her threateningly waving her gun on front of a sixteen year old boy. Like everyone else, Chris believed his sister was killed when Peter Hale bit her. However, Kate survived the Bite and instead, transformed into a Werejaguar.

By the end of the season 4, Chris joined the Calavera family to both protect the McCall Pack and hunt his sister. Unlike his sister, Chris eventually came to see Scott McCall as a hero and true protector of Beacon Hills. As such, Chris wouldn't hesitate to shoot at Kate if she ever harmed or threatened his loved ones.

By 2013, Chris and Kate were now sworn enemies. In Season 6, with Kate still wanting revenge on Scott and the rest of the pack, Chris tried warning her that if she soded with her father, Gerard would not accept her. This was proven true when their father shot her with yellow wolfsbane.. At the series finally, Chris allowed Kate to kill off their father once and for all, despite feeling troubled while doing so.

### Lydia Martin

*Main article: Chris Argent and Lydia Martin*Argent was afraid that Lydia after being bitten by then Alpha Peter Hale would cause her to be turned into Werewolf. ''("Omega")'' He continued to look out for Lydia throughout the rest of the series, due in part to honoring the wishes of his late daughter Allison, who was best friend and vice versa.
Gerard told Lydia the story of how Marie-Jeanne discovered that the Beast was her brother Sebastian and how she killed him. After Lydia sensed the Beast attacking the school, Argent immediately ran to her side to check on her. Lydia, while uninterested wasn't sure why Chris brought Gerard back because of the man's past actions against their friends, seemed to reluctantly listen to the story. Even after Chris gave her a warning glance, Lydia argued that she and deputy Parrish were very similar cuz they were just understanding their powers. Meanwhile, Chris told her that she and Jordan were very different because unlike most creatures Supernatural works through Lydia. However, Lydia sympathetically tells Chris that she cannot kill the Beast because she is no Allison, unintentionally causing Argent's sorrow but Gerard's amusement
