About[]

Appearance[]

He is tall with heart-stopping brown eyes, olive skin, and wavy brown hair.[3] Even as a child Nick was particular about his appearance and owning name brand clothing like the other kids, with his father making sure he always got what he wanted.[citation needed]

Personality[]

From a young age Nick eschewed any kind of work and made it known he didn't want to grow up to be Alpha because although the benefits, like getting to eat first, appealed to him he didn't want the responsibility or extra work. This would continue on into his adult life until his best friends had children.

He is laid back, having no interest in taking over the family business, although he is now beginning to take work more seriously.

As a teen he would sneak Playboy magazines to Stonehaven to show to Clay. As an adult, he has been one of the more promiscuous members of the Pack, to the point of being almost legendary to Reese and Noah. Nick is very charismatic and charming and has had many friends with benefits situations or one night stands. He specifically references his "little black book" when trying to get a younger Clay laid.

Nick also has a poor sense of direction, Clay would try to help him overcome this by abandoning him in Stonehaven's woods so he could learn to find his way back on his own.

He was a very talkative child.

Family[]

He is the son of Antonio Sorrentino, the grandson of former Pack Alpha, Dominic Sorrentino and the great-grandson of another former Pack Alpha Emilio Sorrentino as well as the nephew of Benedict and Gregory and the cousin of Jorge.

As a Werewolf[]

Nick is happiest following orders and letting other people make the hard decisions. He is not a particularly strong fighter but will offer support to any of his Pack members when called upon.

As a child Clay would practice his stalking and hunting methods on Nick in the woods at Stonehaven, he also would leave Nick in the woods alone to find his own way back, hoping it would help to improve his sense of direction.

Elena Michaels[]

Although Nick sometimes pushes boundaries with Elena - kissing her full on the mouth, snuggling into bed with her in the middle of the night - their relationship is entirely platonic. Nick would never betray Clay that way.

Noah, Reese, and Morgan[]

After the three younger wolves join the Pack, Elena encourages Nick to become their mentor and father figure. They all call the Sorrentino estate their home base, even if Morgan in particular tends to roam around. Looking after the next generation fulfills his wolf instinct of parenthood without all the messiness of actually raising kids.

Vanessa Callas[]

After the adventure is over, they tentatively express their interest to see each other more seriously.[4] They are now dating, and Nick wants to ask Vanessa to move in with him on a trial basis.[5]

Antonio Sorrentino[]

He has a close relationship with his father and the two introduce themselves first as uncle and nephew to explain how close they appear in age. Later, when the difference is not so apparent, they are more likely to use father and son.

Antonio and Dominic made sure Nick didn't get involved in mutt fights.

Nick has no intention to have kids and Antonio does not pressure him to have any.

Nick's mother[]

Antonio fell in love with a human woman and was going to defy Pack law to be with her. After Nick was born however, Antonio returned with the newborn to the pack.

Nick's mother is the only human woman to be acknowledged in The Legacy, with just her initials 'LKB'. Everyone believes Nick knows nothing of his mother when in fact he does but thinks it will make his father happier if he pretends he doesn't.[citation needed]

Trivia[]

  • He called his grandfather Dominic 'poppa'.
