Natasha Shaw

Natasha Shaw is a supporting character in Beacon Hills. A well-educated therapist by day and supermom by night, Natasha is the mother to Tyler Shaw and Lowell Shaw. She's a Human & is bewedded to Logan Shaw.

Natasha Preobrazhensky—her birth name—was born in Volgograd, Russia, to a family of hunters, though she knows not of her family's secret. Natasha, being the kind and extroverted person she is, was not suitable for the role of matriarch—in the eyes of her father. The Preobrazhensky clan, much like many other hunter clans, elect a matriarch to lead. The males are trained to hunt. Natasha, arguably the smartest in her family, hated her life in Russia. She could never really make friends, and so she felt isolated from the outside. She instead found comfort in the pages and words of great authors and their works. When reading grew to be a routine, Natasha took up the skill of arts & crafts, where she became more subjective. This was her start towards being a therapist.

The day after her 20th birthday, her parents announced that they were going to immigrate to Australia. And, unlike her siblings, Natasha was sparkling with excitement. This was her chance, to reset and start a new life of sorts. Once they successfully immigrated to Brisbane, Natasha and her sisters and brother went to the Gallery of Modern Art, where Natasha was asked out on to a date by a rather daring security guard. At first she was taken back, and didn't really want to go out with this stranger, but after some pressure from her sisters, she agreed. She wasn't one to jump willingly into the dating game, but he managed to change her mind somehow. He took her out on the most romantic tour of Brisbane, followed by an exhilarating time at a festival that was crowded with food trucks, carnival games, and amusement rides. After dancing to David Bowie's "Let's Dance", Logan led Natasha to a secluded hilltop where they just gazed at the stars for the rest of the night. That was the night she fell in love for the first time. The couple moved to America, where they would later marry and settle down—having twin sons. Natasha landed a job as a therapist in Beacon Hills and Logan continued his active duty as a mercenary.
