We walked in no hurry to get back to the estate while I looked at the icicles dripping off the trees in wonder. Quill tells me about his childhood, talking about his relationship with his parents, and how his father was the one that carried the alpha gene.
Apparently, the chances of getting the werewolf gene were determined by the father since there was no account of female werewolves until Cersei came along. The werewolf gene, though common from past ancestors passing it down from the father's side. The Alpha gene was a bit more complicated to explain though.
"Cersei really was the first one born with it?" I asked, slipping my hand in his.
"It's a bit more complicated than that." Quill said, and he sighed, running a hand through his hair, the curls sticking up a bit.
"Yeah?" I asked, trying not to seem too invested.
