## Personality

Liam is a kind, extremely protective person with a big heart. Still, it's very difficult for him to make other people see these features. Handling other people well is very hard for Liam as he has problems understanding emotions, irony and sarcasm. When Liam likes someone, he will protect and stand by this person until he dies. From Volume 3 on, Liam gets more friendly and open-hearted. He finds new friends and starts to manage his social problems.

Liam is extremely honest and hates lying. This especially shows when he finds out about his half sister. He is a disciplined, strategical worker who likes order and structure. Liam fights for his beliefs and sometimes overreacts, especially when he's angry or frightened. Liam doesn't have a problem with killing his enemies and hates losing a battle. In the beginning, he is extremely impulsive and moody which later gets better.

Liam is a great leader with a lot of self-confidence. Some people think he's a "freak" because he is a complicated and sometimes egoistic person. Still, it's possible for him to convince people with rational arguments and charm.

## Supernatural Powers

Liam is, like his sister, a native zodiac-holder what means that he has the genetic disposition to be a zodiac holder. When his father Charles died in 2007, his zodiac power of being the Leo is transferred to his son Liam. He is part of the 2009 Zodiac. If the other members of his Zodiac, especially his trine, are around, he can feel their feelings and minds, gets visions and spiritual dreams and has access to their minds, emotions and memories. Liam is clairvoyant and, with the zodiac around, of supernatural strength. Besides Zahira and Liv, he is the only one who can see Wyatt's visions too.

In 2007, Liam gets transformed into a werewolf by Caleb Navett. He has the normal werewolf powers like shapeshifting, healing and stronger senses. Liam learns very quickly about self-control and using his abilities. He becomes involved with himself and his powers and tries to use his abilities to help others.

As an alpha wolf, Liam has even higher powers than normal werewolves. He got his alpha lives from Derek Jefferson, his father Charles and Santiago Rigato. The werewolves bitten by Liam are Joline (2008), Henry (2010) and Zahira (2010).

## Relationships

### Love Interests

Liam is bisexual. He has been involved with three men yet but told nobody. Even his sister didn't know about it until 2007. Known love interests included

* Joey Wright (1991) and
* Aiden Wilson (2007-now).

#### Aiden Wilson Keaton

Aiden is Liam's love interest and later his husband. They meet in Volume 2 when Liam and the werewolf hunters come to White Falls. Aiden instantly falls in love with Liam and subsequently they make out and have sex. Liam then tells Joline and Liv that it was an one-night-stand which offends Aiden, but obviously it was a lie and Liam has feelings for Aiden too.

Their relationship gets built up very slow but steady through the book. Aiden helps Liam with learning how to control himself after Caleb Navett had bitten him and transformed him into a werewolf. In the final showdown of Volume 2 Aiden frees Liam from his cell and helps him killing Garrett Black. Liam then makes the decision to stay with Aiden instead of going away with his pack or staying with his family.

In Volume 5, they move in together and take Henry Rigato in their house to help him. In Volume 7, Aiden thinks about marrying Liam, but he is sure that Liam doesn't want to marry him. Eventually, Liam tells him he wants to stay with him forever which is why Aiden asks him nevertheless and Liam says yes.

### Family

#### Charles Keaton

Charles is Liam's father. They have a quite good relationship, until Liam finds out Charles has betrayed their mother and has a third child. Liam is extremely mad at his father while his sister seems to be more relaxed about it. Charles and Liam are very similar personalities which is also why they argue a lot.

When Charles dies, Liam suffers a lot. He is very happy to see his father when he comes back as a shadow soul in Volume 5, and is devastated when he leaves him again. Charles also gave Liam one of his alpha lives.

#### Joline Keaton

Joline is Liam's twin sister and his closest confidant since their childhood. They compensate and supplement each other and Joline is kind of Liam's oasis. Joline even lets Liam bite her so she can be a werewolf and stay close to him in his new life. As her alpha, she respects and admires Liam.

Liam and Joline never argue and are a perfect team at work. They always support each other and would never betray their sibling. In Volume 9, Liam even starts to cry because he worries about Joline and her family.

### Friends

#### Henry Rigato

Liam feels sympathy for Henry from the day they meet. He protects the boy and later saves his life by making him a werewolf. From this moment on, Henry is a member of Liam's pack. Liam teaches him how to use and manage his new abilities and strength. On the other hand, Henry tries to help him wherever possible and admires Liam as an idol. Liam is very proud of Henry's success and likes to work with him.

As Henry is an orphan and has no home, Liam and Aiden take him in. When they marry, Liam chooses Henry as his best man. Liam is also Henry's mentor during his agent training.

#### Noah Fields

Liam helps Noah with managing his powers and dealing with the fact to be different from his friends. They develop a deep sympathy and Liam starts keeping an eye on Noah. Due to not being able to evaluating his power, Liam nearly kills Noah in Volume 3. He feels very guilty and is extremely happy to see Noah alive. Liam enjoys training Noah and helping him with his powers.

#### Derek Jefferson

In the beginning, Liam and Derek have a difficult relationship as they are very similar and argue a lot. Later, Derek starts to be a confidant for Liam and even gives him on of his alpha lives. Liam sometimes has visions and dreams of Derek and even learns to ask Derek for help by calling for his ghost.

#### Caleb Navett

Liam didn't trust Caleb when he started to work for the ECCO. He even tried to shoot Caleb in Volume 2. Liam's anger increased with Caleb biting him and transforming him into a werewolf. Still, this bond helps both to develop a better sympathy and become friends even if the relationship is very subtle and unstable.

#### Gwen Stapleton

Gwen and Liam have a very bad relationship in the beginning as she is a suicide hunter. Gwen attacks Liam several times and even bites off one of his index fingers. Liam is unable to understand Henry's sympathy for Gwen and doesn't support their relationship. Later, when Gwen is freed from being possessed, they start to bond and Liam allows Gwen to be a member of his pack.

#### Eric Dempsey

Eric was a childhood friend of Liam's. At the age of 12, both boys were bitten by a wendigo. By accident, Liam blocks Eric from being healed which makes Eric a wendigo. In 2008, they meet again and Eric tries to kill Liam for revenge.
