Not a shifter, not a human, not really sure what I am.

I was rescued as a newborn by my Fae best friend and we've been together ever since. I'm not really part of the supernatural community - being the only shifter in existence who cannot shift has made me an oddity and uncomfortable in my own fur. Until I met him.
WE'RE both unexplainable, oddballs who don't belong - So maybe our place is together. Except we're driving each other crazy and then there's that little spark inside me that is making itself known whether I like it or not. Can we be friends? Or is the Mountain just not big enough for our kind of magic?
