The first season's story centres on Elena Michaels (portrayed by Laura Vandervoort), a female werewolf who is torn between a normal life in Toronto with her human boyfriend, Philip, and her "family" obligations as a werewolf in upstate New York. Among her pack is her ex-fiancé Clayton, who is responsible for her becoming a werewolf.[3]
In the second season, story centres on the aftermath of the battle, as other packs demand they hunt down the remaining rebellion, as well as the meeting of witches Paige and Ruth, who are looking to save their lost coven member, Savannah, from evil warlock Aleister.
The third season reveals Elena's true origins as members of her biological family who she did not know about come to find her. However, they have a secret too, in that they are on the run from another larger, more dangerous pack.
On May 22, 2014, the series was renewed for a second season of 10 episodes, with production beginning in Summer.[4] On May 22, 2015, Space confirmed that the series would be renewed for a third season, with filming set to begin in the summer / fall of 2015.[5] It was confirmed in December 2015 that the third season of Bitten would be its final one.[6]
