"Boy, get me some more tea, my old throat is as dry as the Gobi desert. When I finally located Ginette, she did not recognize me because I was no longer Fah'Rey. It broke my heart, I was unaccustomed to my new human body I couldn't control the lustful urges.

 I made the unforgivable decision to drug her and kidnap her. I ravaged her innocent body repeatedly. When I had a moment of clarity and felt ashamed of myself. I brought her to a hospital, and began to work on an antidote for Jean's serum.

I was successful, the compulsion was finally gone. I became determined to commit the rest of my life to the sole purpose of her protection. She is a beautiful, forgiving soul after I explained to her what had happened. Shortly afterwards she became pregnant with your father. We were both overjoyed, but he was a sullen boy with not an ounce of capacity for love.

Jean meanwhile worked for a pharmaceutical company, where she was able to continue her experiments. Many years had passed with no communication, it was a peaceful time in our lives.

But that peace ended when Jean arrived suddenly at our doorstep like a thunderclap. A harbinger of the storm to come. She was obsessed with your father and was adamant that we allow her to study his blood. 

We gave her permission, only finding out later what a grave mistake it was. When your father was 16 she returned, this time with a girl. Using her serum she manipulated the two to fall in love. The girl became pregnant with you and your twin sister Rebecca. Shortly after the joyous event, Jean kidnapped the pregnant girl and disappeared.
