Totally agree. I also think people forget he’s under the control of that drug. Which the uncle was still perfecting, which means he was not only being tortured for 10 years but was being experimented on. Like Ethan couldn’t control himself & was miserable with the little dose they gave him. Now imagine wren. I totally hate what the author doing with his character. Im hoping he gets a happy ending, cuz he’s been through so much shit.
I feel like people that are calling him names and cussing him out severely lack empathy towards this particular situation! you can point out someone's flaws, disagree with their actions, and still have an understanding of where that behavior stems from. HE'S LITERALLY BEEN TORTURED FOR TEN YEARS!!! his brain chemistry has been altered and his literal survival now depends on that motherfcking scientist bitch!! humans do worse shit with way less damage.. HE IS BROKEN!! that's what that motherfcker did to him. Am I okay with him potentially betraying Tristan? absolutely not. but I also would find it hard to be a judge of character here tbh. I cannot even begin to imagine for a second the hell he's been through. we got a glimpse of it for one or two chapters and honestly my stomach was turning.... I also think the art plays a big part in how the story is portrayed and how readers perceives characters.
that's just me
You know I can't blame Wren. As shitty as it may seem that he might betray him, I can't help but sympathize for him. He clearly was tortured and potentially brainwashed to an extend. I couldn't image being in his shoes and say that I would come out the same person.
