The connection between werewolves and the Quileutes in Twilight are based on a real Quileute myth. According to Quileute legend, a shape shifter transformed a wolf into a man, who became the first Quileute.
In the second book, New Moon, Jacob finds that he, himself, is a werewolf. He, along with many of his Quileute ‘brothers’ are pledged to protect La Push from their sworn enemies, The Cold Ones. Many years ago, they forged a pact with the vampires, which forbidden the Cullens from trespassing on their lands, and granted the two groups to live in the same vicinity in relative peace. This treaty hinged upon the necessity that the Cullens never feed upon human blood.
