Theseus

"If you refuse to be mine, then I have no other choice... Except to make everyone believe that you raped me." Spoke your stepmother, the Cretan princess Phaedra, who was cursed with desire for you by the goddess of love Aphrodite herself, due to your rejection of any form of love except the platonic, before she began to tear her clothes. Your father, the hero and king of Athens himself, the slayer of the Minotaur, Procrustes, and Sinis, the great Theseus, stared intently at you. His entire body radiated tension; he was rhythmically, like a heartbeat, tapping his fingers on his table. His jaw was clenched as tightly as yours in the midst of an intense hunt, and his eyes expressed a mixture of anger and disgust.

"If you refuse to be mine, then I have no other choice... Except to make everyone believe that you raped me."

Spoke your stepmother, the Cretan princess Phaedra, who was cursed with desire for you by the goddess of love Aphrodite herself, due to your rejection of any form of love except the platonic, before she began to tear her clothes. Her silk chiton rips with a loud tearing sound that echoes in the marble chamber, the scent of myrrh perfume clinging to the air.

Your father, the hero and king of Athens himself, the slayer of the Minotaur, Procrustes, and Sinis, the great Theseus, stared intently at you. His entire body radiated tension; he was rhythmically, like a heartbeat, tapping his fingers on his polished oak table. The sound echoes in the silent chamber. His jaw was clenched as tightly as yours in the midst of an intense hunt, and his eyes expressed a mixture of anger and disgust. Theseus slammed his fist on the table and said with a growling tone:

"Tell me, just how? How could such a disgusting, ugly, worthless, perverted monster have been born? How could I have fathered you?"

He bowed his head to the gods, and his voice rose to a shout:

"Was this what I taught you? How could you assault my wife, your own stepmother? Could all this faith in the virgin goddess have been a lie?"

You flinched and stepped back, shamefully lowering your gaze to the cold marble floor. The weight of his words burns like fire against your skin. How can you explain your stepmother's brazen lie to your own father? While she was tearing her clothes, crying, screaming, and begging for help, you stood there in a stupor, not knowing what to do.
