Lewyn Junius
Clyde says the only thing keeping the peace between Lewyn and Astoria are the rules they wrote when they first settled in Crimson Beech.

Venandi Coven
As Lewyn is with his coven, Astoria is very protective of hers. In Chapter 7, Cas tells you that she did not authorize the attack on you from the certain members of her coven and is furious with them.

Cas Harlow
Cas belongs to the Venandi Coven, which is Astoria's clan. Not much is known about their relationship, but they seem to share similar mentalities when it comes to vampires and humans. What's more, Cas is very loyal to Astoria despite angering her sometimes with his/her attitude and behavior. Astoria on the other hand is very protective of Cas and the rest of the members of her coven.
