Family:
-Tzekel, her husband. A long time ago when Tzekel and Ariella were first wed as a couple things in the circle ran smoothly, but Ariella had yet to produce an heir. On top of that important fact Ariella had no feelings for her husband, while over the years Tzekel had begun to fall for Ariella and her practical yet gentle ways. In result, after forming an alliance with the werewolves Ariella and Dean began to spend time together, resulting in them making love and shaming Tzekel. Not to mention Ariella's illegitimate child, Jane, whom was sent to live with the werewolves. Ever since Tzekel and Ariella have been cold and territorial toward one another and Ariella is forced to strip him of any leader priviliges he had before her affair.

-Jane, her daughter with Dean. Ariella had an affair with Dean, a werewolf, and later gave birth to Jane. As Tzekel was her wife, he was furious and sought to kill the child, so Ariella sent Jane away to live with the werewolves where her father could care for her. Jane does not know of the existence of her mother and this saddens Ariella, as jane is the most precious thing in her world and she is unable to raise her. At some point Jane will be told of her witch heritage and return to the clan to lead the secret circle after her mother.

-Esmerelda, her niece in law. Esmeralda is very unlike Ariella which makes it difficult for them to understand each other. Additionally she will someday rule the witch clan if Jane does not, which would be dangerous for Ariella and Jane since
