Season 3 of the fantasy drama followed Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent (Jay Ryan) as they are finally able to focus on their love, finally free from Muirfield, manhunts and beasts. However, that love was tested as new and more dangerous threats awaited.
When they learn that innocent victims are being used to test the boundaries of the impossible, Cat and Vincent uncover a deeper conspiracy, one which Vincent can fight only by turning to the beast he carries within.
