Oh, Wakefield! That character totally stuck with me after binging the show last winter. The role is played by Julian Morris, who brings this eerie, magnetic charm to the enigmatic Wakefield. I first noticed him in 'Pretty Little Liars,' but his performance here is next-level—subtle yet unsettling, like a slow burn. The way he balances vulnerability with menace makes you question every smirk.
Funny enough, I dug into his filmography afterward and found he's done everything from horror ('CryWolf') to sci-fi ('New Amsterdam'). But Wakefield might be his most nuanced role yet. The show's writing gives him layers, and Julian peels them back like an onion—each episode reveals something new. Makes me wish he got more leading parts!
Wakefield's actor is Julian Morris, and honestly, I nearly didn't recognize him at first. His transformation for the role is wild—lankier posture, this detached gaze, even his voice drops an octave. I rewatched a scene where he monologues about time, and it gave me chills. The dude commits.
Side note: I love how the show plays with his British roots too. His natural accent slips through in moments, adding this extra layer of 'otherness' to the character. It's those little choices that make Wakefield feel like a puzzle you can't solve. Julian's chemistry with the lead actress also crackles—every interaction feels like a chess match.
Julian Morris nails Wakefield's creepy charisma. What fascinated me was how he physicalizes the role—the way he tilts his head slightly, like he's always listening for secrets. The show's ambiguity about whether Wakefield's a villain or just misunderstood works because Julian plays him with equal parts charm and menace.
After finishing the series, I fell down a rabbit hole of interviews where he talks about preparing for the role. Apparently, he studied predatory animals to nail Wakefield's stillness. Now I can't unsee it—every scene he's in feels like watching a panther stalk its prey.

Yara Ellis is a medical student, hiding in a human university while she studies to become a doctor. Unlike most, Yara is majoring in human medicine, veterinary medicine, and minoring in zoology. Since the packs are constantly at war, there are never enough doctors to help injured pack members. She’s been on her own for several years now, escaping from her previous pack and making her own way in the world, hoping to one day return to her roots and become the premier doctor of the packs.
Warren Hill is an Alpha, caught up in the constant wars that abound between the packs and the battles that are never-ending. He’s a strong and powerful Alpha, but because of the constant fighting between the packs, he’s never been able to find his mate.
One day when Yara is letting her wolf run, she comes across Alpha Warren, caught in a bear trap. She’s heard of this, packs leaving traps so that other pack’s members will get caught and either die a slow death or are easily killed.
Warren is in his wolf form, unable to shift without ripping his leg off. Yara carefully springs the trap, releasing him from his metal capture. However, Warren recognizes her as his mate and when his pack arrives, he’s unwilling to leave her behind.
Yara doesn’t want to return to Warren’s pack but is unable to fight against the Alpha and his warriors. When she hears that the one who desperately wants her, the one she ran to get away from, is now Alpha of his pack, she realizes that the safest place for her may be with Alpha Warren, even if he is her mate and even if he is unwilling to ever let her go.
You think you've had a bad day?
My name is Braddock Westfield, Billionaire Alpha (head werewolf) of the Crescent Moon pack I've searched for my fated mate for 22 years and finally conceded to the elders to choose a Luna to produce an heir. The night before our union my pack was attacked by rogues (werewolves with no pack, no morals, mostly criminals), we suffered no losses except my Gamma (Lead Warrior), who now we need to pick up 100 miles away in a small human town at a Diner. I receive a call as I pull into the parking lot, that my chosen mate has been kidnapped by rogues on her way to my pack. Pissed off, I enter the Diner, an intoxicating scent hits me and my wolf howls in my head "MATE" (22years of searching and on my Union Day, you find her). Two men crash threw the door inside the diner, yelling "Charlie get your ass out here now, we're not done with it yet." The old woman behind the counter grabs a shotgun and makes them leave. A waitress comes out bringing food and that intoxicating scent, my heart clenches when our eyes lock and our mate bond snaps tethering our hearts together, as I look at her broken nose, bruised face, split lip, swollen green glistening eyes. I need to get her to leave with us, promising to keep her safe, revealing I'm a psychiatrist with facilities, to help her rebuild her self-esteem and build her confidence to help her, move past her obvious trauma. Explaining she's a werewolf and I'm her fated mate and at least 20+ years older than her, that may be more challenging. Let's not forget, I now need to find my kidnapped chosen that I need to reject. All this before 9am.
