This is the default behavior.
Since you are asking excel to fill the row color upon cell selection. Ultimately your previous background color will automatically be removed.

if I may ask, what is the purpose of this color fill you are doing via vba?

try
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Range(Cells(Selection.Row, 1), Cells(Selection.Row, 13)).Select
End Sub

and then double click on any cell in the row you want to select.

If you only want to select the rows using excel's default selection method, then (on doubleclick)

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Set rng1 = Range(Cells(Selection.Row, 1), Cells(Selection.Row, 7))
Set rng2 = Range(Cells(Selection.Row, 10), Cells(Selection.Row, 12))
Set Rng = Union(rng1, rng2)
Rng.Select
End Sub

If you want to use your own code to highlight the row, then (on singleclick)

VBA Code:
Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

Set rng1 = Range(Cells(Selection.Row, 1), Cells(Selection.Row, 7))
Set rng2 = Range(Cells(Selection.Row, 10), Cells(Selection.Row, 12))
Set Rng = Union(rng1, rng2)
Static xRow

If xRow <> "" Then
    With Rows(xRow).Interior
        .ColorIndex = xlNone
    End With
End If
prow = Selection.Row
xRow = prow
With Rng.Interior
    .ColorIndex = 34
    .Pattern = xlSolid
End With
End Sub

HTH...
