Wren Tigarian (Katagaria - half snow leopard and half white tiger) & Marguerite "Maggie" D’Aubert Goudeau (Human)

Mom and Dad don't like me
They say I'm mean and crude
They tried to make me a good little boy
By sticking downers in my food

My neighbours try to run me down
Because I'm such a mess
Maybe it's cause of the way I look
Or maybe the way I dress

Girls don't really like me
That's why I hate myself
Maybe it's cause of the way I look
Or maybe it's something else.
DEAD MILKMEN lyrics from the song “V.F.W.: Veterans of a f@cked up world”

This is Wren’s favorite song and it is the one that actually summarizes his existence. Wren is such a baby boy in Katagaria years. Less than 50 years old, he was unfortunate in terms of his parents who both apparently hated him. When they were both killed about 20 years ago, little Wren found refuge at Peltier House that sheltered creatures who were thrown out of their clans and all the misfits in need for help.

Wren rarely talks; he has a monkey as his only friend and long hair to cover his eyes and his job is to clean tables.
But for some reason almost everyone is scared of him.
Maybe because he is deep down an animal.
Maybe because he is half snow leopard and half white tiger and completely unstable.
Maybe because he is more lethal than he looks.

But when he takes a look at Maggie, his quiet world is shattered. Maggie is the daughter of a senator and she has strong Cajun roots from her mother side. Although rich, she is a simple, nice girl really. Her world will change as well when she meets her first Were-Hunter.

As their story proceeds, many truths will be revealed. Wren is not really that poor and his father is not really that bad and Wren is not really that dangerous unless you harm the woman that he loves.

That was an awesome story! I loved the chemistry between the two main characters.
I loved Wren! He is such a tortured hero. He is basically a male who just waits for the right girl in order to show his true self and shine.
