"MORE story?" Leo asked.

"I like more story!" Jason agreed.

They boys totally skipped the part on the betrayal and her killing her kids, which came to show how selective the male mind could be sometimes.

Medea didn't look happy. "One will do the strangest things."

"But that hero took you with him when he fled Colchis," Piper remembered. "Didn't he, Your Highness? He married you just as he promised."

"At first," Her Highness admitted, "it seemed he would keep his word. But even after I helped him steal my father's treasure, he still needed my help.
As we fled, my brother's fleet came after us. His warships overtook us. He would have destroyed us, but I convinced my brother to come aboard our ship first and talk under a flag of truce. He trusted me."

"And you killed your own brother," Rebecca said.

"What?" Jason stirred. For a moment he looked almost like himself.  "Killed your own-"

"No," the princess snapped. "Those stories are lies. It was my new husband and his men who killed my brother, though they couldn't have done it without my deception.

They threw his body into the sea, and the pursuing fleet had to stop and search for it so they could give my brother a proper burial. This gave us time to get away. All this, I did for my husband. And he forgot our bargain. He betrayed me in the end."

Jason still looked uncomfortable. "What did he do?"

The princess held the sliced-up toga against Jason's chest, as if measuring him for an assassination. "Don't you know the story, my boy? You of all people should. You were named for him."

Then it hit Rebecca. "Jason," She said. "The original Jason." She looked at Medea. "You should be deep six foot under."

The princess smiled. "As I said, a new life in a new country.
Certainly I made mistakes. I turned my back on my own people. I was called a traitor, a thief, a liar, a murderess. But I acted out of love." She turned to the boys and gave them a pitiful look, batting her eyelashes.

Rebecca could almost feel the powers.

"Wouldn't you do the same for someone you loved, my dears?"

Rebecca blinked. "No, I wouldn't fall in love."

Medea looked at her sceptical.

"Oh, sure," Jason said.

"Okay," Leo said.

"Guys!" Piper ground her teeth in frustration. "Don't you see who she is? Don't you-"

"Let's continue, shall we?" the princess said breezily. "I believe you wanted to talk about a price for the storm spirits— and your satyr." Leo got distracted on the second floor with the appliances.

"No way," he said. "Is that an armored forge?"

Before Piper or Rebecca could stop him, he hopped off the escalator and ran over to a big oval oven that looked like a barbecue on steroids.
