"You!!" Cassie said as she pointed at me with a scowl, making many heads turn to me and my mates but as soon as they saw Kenji besides me some averted their gazes and just looked at Cassie.

"Me?" I asked with a smile, tilting my head sideways just to make her more angrier. It doesn't seem like a good idea to anger the female lead but hey, I want to have fun every now and then so I just shrugged it off.

"What are you doing here?!" She asked and I looked at her as if she's stupid, well not that she isn't. "You know, if stupidity was a virtue you'd be a saint" I scoffed and watch as her scowl deepen.

"Who said I'm not allowed to be in the market? I was having a nice day until I heard a shrieking Banshee and I got curious so I went to look and found you" I said with a snicker.

"I mean, how mean can you be Cassie? You spilled someone's food and then run off to pick a fight with another female? My even I as a queen don't act like that" I covered my mouth and look at her.

"You have no right to tell me what to do in my life" she hissed and I shrug. "And you have no right either to tell me where I can and can't go" I said which earned snickers from the surrounding females.

"Youu!!" She gritted her teeth and I just smiled at her. "Don't get so cocky just because your a queen. Your parents didn't even love you" she smirked and it was my turn to scowl.

It was indeed true, in one of the chapters just before Sera died Cassie revealed that Sera's parents didn't even love her. That's why, in the beastworld she became a little desperate on trying to be loved.

"At least I have a new family who loves me now" I scoffed, refusing to give in to her and give her that satisfaction that she made me angry because of Sera's past.

"But that will never change that you didn't get love from your parents. Isn't that why your desperate to be love?" She scoff and I just rolled my eyes.

"My past does not define me. I don't care if they didn't love me! Because what's important now is that I have my own family and they love me as much as I love them" I huffed.

"And at least right now I get to live the life that I want. I get to live in a nice and cozy castle, unlike you who's stuck in a tiny house" I snicker and her smirk turned into a scowl again.

"You know if you keep scowling you'll get ugly, well not that you aren't already" I laughed before looking at her mates who were glaring at me but didn't do anything.

"Hmph, pathetic. You boast that your so pretty yet just look at your males. They're week, just like you. But I shouldn't be surprised, if the head bitch herself if weak than its natural for her mates to be weak too" I laughed, and I can hear the countless sniggers and laughs from the other females. Especially the two female who she picked a fight on.

"I agree with the queen, it's pathetic of you to think that your above us all when in fact your just mating with males to gain more males to protect yourself" The rabbit half beast said with a shrug as she stood behind her tiger mate.

Cassie scoffed. "Isn't that all females do for their protection? So what's the difference" she rolled her eyes. "The difference between you and us is that we at least don't threaten our males by cutting their marks over something so stupid" the fox beastman retorted.

"Many females do that too! So what's the difference" Cassie said as she turned to the two females. "My Cassie, have some shame. So your admitting in threatening males by cutting their marks? Oh my" I fake a gasp as I eyed her and the other males in the surrounding who shifted in their places with frowns on their faces.

'Looks like she won't be getting any new mates' I thought with a shrug. 'That'll stop her for gaining more mates for a while and gain more power' I smiled at just stick my tongue at her.

"Let's go, there's no point in wasting my time with a pathetic female who thinks she's above everyone else when in reality she's just a desperate and jealous female who can't be happy that's why she causes trouble wherever she is" I said and Lucas turned around and was about to take a step but stop when he heard a roar.

Two of Cassie's tiger mate who she stupidly ordered to attack Lucas run to us. But before they can even go ten meters near me or Lucas they were sent flying by Carlos tail and in the silence we can hear bones cracking and Cassie hissing.

I watch her as she looked at her thighs, seeing two tiger marks fade. "You! Your mate killed my mates!!" Cassie yelled as she looked at Carlos with a sneer. Years pooled around her eyes as she was held by her mates in case she does something rash.

"My mate only defended me. If he didn't your mates would have hurted me" I said and looked at Carlos who was glaring back at Cassie with a hiss.

"Pathetic and weak" I spat with a scoff. "Watch your mouth female!" Luka said as he looked at me. "Watch your tone when talking to my mate brother" Lucas sneered at his brother before he handed me to Denver who was quick to stand behind the others with me in his hand.

"Are you challenging me?" Luka asked as he stared at his brother. "If you disrespect my mate again, may the beast god forgive me for what I'm about to do with you. I will forget we're even brothers if you try to harm her" Lucas said as he stood his ground against his own brother.

It's a pity, they both seems close when I first saw them back in the village and they were too in the novel since both of them were Cassie's mate.

"That's enough, let's just go. No need to waste any more time with her" I said, making Lucas give his brother one more glare before he turned around and walked to us without even turning back once.

"This isn't the end of this!" I heard Cassie yell and I turned to look at her. "I don't care what you do, but remember that I will always find ways to get back at you. So bring it on, after all your just a pathetic little fox who's desperate for love and jealous of someone she knows who got a better life than her" I scoffed before Denver walked away, most of my mates following right behind us.

"That's two less mates for her" I grumbled under my breath as we made our way back to the castle. "Fox queen! Wait!" I heard someone say and patted Denver's shoulder so he stopped walking and turned around.

It was the two half beast not long ago. "Can I help you?" I asked, tilting my head to the side. "We just wanted to ask if you know that filthy fox" The rabbit half beast ask as she was being carried by one of her rabbit mate.

"Hm yes, we grew up in the same city and we were close but she changed" I said and saw both of them nod. "I'm Chloe" the rabbit half beast said with a smile as she introduced herself.

"And I'm Penny" the fox half beast said. "Sera, it's nice to meet you two" I smiled at them, feeling happy for getting to know two new friends, especially these two.

In the novel these two along with Fara and a few other powerful half beast were Cassie's friends but looks like the tables turned. Penny for example became a queen of a powerful city, which greatly help Cassie in the future with finding Sera and her mates.

Chloe was also a powerful half beast, having several merfolk mates in the future which helps Cassie of course but hey they're my friends now and not hers so wouldn't hurt to take advantage of that.

"Well it's nice to meet you Sera" Both of them said and I nodded. "Well, we won't waste any of your time now. Byee" Penney waved at me, before her mate who was carrying her turned around and began walking away, probably to bring her back home.

"I'll get going as well" Chloe smiled at me before she too left, leaving me and my mates. "Well two new friends for me and two more enemies for the little bitch" I said with a grin making my mates shake their head with smiles on their faces.

"You really hate her huh, well doesn't matter. Just say one word and she'll be gone" Kenji said and I just hummed in response. "Forever" Marlo added which made me laugh.

"You know, I would love that but not now. But I'll be sure you get to do it and have fun with her mates" I said which earn a smile from him.

"What's stopping you? I mean you have a king and another seven star beast along with a few more powerful mate. One of them being a prince of another city" Denver asked as he looked at me, tilting his head a bit.

"Now's not the time yet, but she will get what she deserves. And that's being ten feet below the ground" I scoffed, remembering all the things she did in revenge to Sera in the original novel.

'Time for her to taste her own medicine' I thought before I turned to my mates.

"You'd do anything for me right?" I asked with a sweet smile which made them look at each other for a few seconds before nodding.

"Of course, just say what you want little mate and we'll do it for you no matter what" Xavier said and my smile widen.

"Great! I'd like to have some fun with Cassie you see" I said and they nodded in understanding and listened closely while I speak what I want to happen.

'Ha, wouldn't hurt to act live the villainess I am' I smirked and turned my attention in front of us, seeing my three cubs happily chasing each other while we walk back to the castle.

'Doesn't mean I act passive and weak means that I won't do anything' I thought before a smile curled up in my lips, just thinking about Cassie and the things she would probably complain about when I start my little game with her.

But oh well, that's her problem to face and not mine. I just want to enjoy my time and enjoy my life in this world. Maybe getting more mates won't be a bad idea, I'll just add just a few more. Probably 15 or more.
