The second season picks up after Vincent was captured by Muirfield. 
The story continues with Catherine finally locating where Vincent is after months of tracking him down. But this time, Vincent doesn't seem know them. Muirfield must've erased his memories in order to control him and so Vincent would do as he says.

This season, Cat and Vincent's relationship is put to test even more now that Vincent can't remember Cat. But Catherine would stop at nothing just to give Vincent his memories back and to make Muirfield pay for what he's done to him. 


Now that Vincent doesn't have his memories, Catherine tries to move on, to let him go. She starts a relationship with Gabe trying to convince herself that she can forget about Vincent. But who is she fooling? Vincent also starts to make a connection with Tori, a wealthy socialite who has discovered that she's also a Beast. Because of their shared beast instincts, they decided to stick together so they can watch and protect each other. But after Tori's death later in the season, Vincent realizes that he is still in love with Catherine. He tries to win her back but Catherine reasons that Gabe is safer now that he's not a beast anymore.
