It's not what he's accustomed to, but it boils down to the same thing - someone wants to hunt them, finish them off like they're nothing but animals.

He doesn't say he comes from the oldest werewolf line in his world.

That his father is the werewolf king, and he's a psychopath. He tries not to think of it if he can help it.
