You guys have no idea how much I adore Fen. I love my big, grumpy, grumbly hero something FIERCE!
The funny thing is book 5 was the one book I didn’t have a concrete outline on when I originally outlined the series. I knew it would roughly follow a Goldilocks theme, but as for who our Grimm was? Nope. No clue.
In fact, Fen wasn’t supposed to be one of the main characters in this series at all. He appeared a line at a time as I told Zel and Isobel’s story. The idea that he’d be the starting point for the line of cursed wolves hit me when I was working out how the cursed wolves came into being.
And, BOOM, Fen was born.
So, Fen. The jaded, tired youngest son of the cursed family who began all this craziness. As it turns out, he’s the only one who had an actual family. And, BOY, did he give making babies a lot of effort. LOL.
By the time Gretchen stumbles over him, he’s completely cut himself off from the outside world. He wants nothing to do with the pain of loving someone and having them ripped from him by time and circumstance. So he hides in the forest and ignores his responsibilities.
Which doesn’t work out so well for him when Gretchen stumbles into his life. Because she pushes and pulls and gets him to see how empty his life has become.
And then the magic happens.
