mela is a wolfgirl who was born and raised in las vegas. she owns a bar that belonged to her parents. she lets her girlfriends drink there despite both of them being under 21. in fact this is how she befriended moca.
she has a tendency to go after younger girls as they are easier to manipulate. this is why she chose strawberry. she still definitely loves her gf tho.
the reason she started dating moca is a whole other story. moca is a bit old for mela's tastes and so mela would reject her advances. however upon learning about strawberry's feelings for moca, mela decided to date her. she thought that this could be a way for strawberry to get to moca, as fucked up as that is.
