Kane took on the recurring role of Cora, a young werewolf who is discovered to be the younger sister of Alpha werewolf, Derek (series star Tyler Hoechlin). Derek sets out to rescue two members of his pack, Boyd & Erica, in the second episode of the season, titled "Chaos Rising." What he discovers, however, is that Boyd has been imprisoned with his sister, Cora, whom Derek believed had died in a fire years before. With their werewolf abilities unleashed, Boyd & Cora fight Derek and ultimately escape. Kane appears only briefly in the episode. The following episode, titled "Fireflies," picks up the action as Derek, joined by Scott & Isaac, attempt to capture Boyd & Cora, before they can hurt any innocent people.
