I agree about the connection to nature and the worldbuilding possibilities being the most interesting things about werewolf stories, and there are definitely some good possibilities with this setting—and what a thing to confront Keith's Enlightenment scepticism with! And I love the idea of Keith finding wolf!Ewen in hiding and bringing back his human side.
Huh, I didn't know that! Would certainly have to make something of it...maybe werewolves compete with real wolves?
I was thinking something like, he killed the last wolf so now the Eternal Spirit of Wolf-ness is transferred to him instead, and that's the origin story of the Cameron werewolves—but perhaps that wouldn't work with it being a straightforward genetic thing!
