— Elena in Summons
| ||
Elena Michaels is the female lead and protagonist of Bitten. She is the only known female werewolf in the world, the fiancée of Clayton Danvers and the ex-girlfriend of Philip McAdams.
Early History
Elena was orphaned at a young age when both of her parents died. With no living relatives she was placed in the state care system and lived with foster families. At some point as a child she was molested by a neighbour, Victor Olson and reported him to the authorities. He was later charged, she testified against him and was sent to prison. After graduating from high school, Elena attended college.
To pay for her college, Elena applied to be an assistant to an anthropologist professor, Clayton Danvers. They fell in love and quickly became engaged. Clayton brought Elena to Stonehaven where his adoptive father, Jeremy Danvers, lived.
Jeremy Danvers was in the middle of a turn when Elena heard a noise and looked toward the woods. He thought Elena saw him so he ordered Clayton away so he could kill her, because one of many strict rules werewolves adhere to is that if a human knows about werewolves they must be killed.
Clayton not wanting this to be his lover's fate, bites Elena so she can have another chance at life. However, biting her was a huge risk for both of them. There had never been a female werewolf, therefore women were thought to be generally not strong enough to survive the change: getting stuck mid-change or mentally unstable from it eventually always led to their deaths.
Somehow Elena survived and now is the the only female werewolf, but Elena, not knowing the truth behind why Clayton bit her broke off their engagement.
Throughout Bitten
Season One
Elena Michaels moved away from Stonehaven in Bear Valley, NY to Toronto where she had met Philip McAdams. She tried to live a normal human life away from her pack especially her ex-fiance, Clayton Danvers.
Elena's cousin, Logan Jonsen also lived in Toronto where he is a practicing psychologist. He also wanted to keep distance from the pack to live a normal life with his girlfriend, Rachel Sutton.
Her plan didn't work when she was called to Stonehaven by the pack Alpha, Jeremy Danvers, to help track a rogue murderous Mutt (a werewolf that isn't part of a pack).
Elena and Clay tracked down the Mutt at a warehouse party where chaos quickly followed after the Mutt turned. He ended up killing a woman and biting a man. The Mutt's chaos was short lived, he was hit by a truck. The man who was bitten was "mercifully" killed by Clay so he wouldn't have to spend any longer in agony.
Elena wanting to go back to her new life in Toronto and further not spend any more time with Clay leaves Stonehaven.
Not soon after Elena is called back to Stonehaven once again putting her life on hold and causing her to lie to Philip about why she had to leave again, because one of the pack members, Peter Myers, was murdered by another Mutt.

Physical Appearance
Elena is described as being a slender, tall woman with a "werewolf's typically athletic build", standing at around 5'10. Furthermore, she has blue eyes and white-blonde hair that is mid-back length. It is stated in the books that Elena has not worn makeup since the 1990s, but despite this she has "wholesome good looks" and people have stated that if she made an effort to fix herself up, she would be very beautiful. Contrary to the previous statement, others have said that Elena possesses a natural beauty and does not need any makeup. When she is in her wolf form, she becomes a blonde wolf. Her wolf appearance is similar to that of a husky or another big dog.

Abilities
Being a werewolf Elena possesses all the basic abilities of her kind such as being physically stronger and faster than humans, possessing heightened senses, prolonged youth and the ability to shift into a wolf. Evidence of this strength was shown when she easily broke the arm of Thomas LeBlanc. It is stated several times by Jeremy that Elena is the pack's best tracker. Elena also possesses heightened senses, which she displayed when she was able to hear the conversation between Philip's sister and mother at the awards ceremony. She has also shown to possess an even greater sense of smell than that of others in the pack and is the best tracker among them. An ability that is unique to her is that she can prevent the change mid transition, which no other werewolf has been able to do.
