Chapter 53: Envious Heart

Everyone is gathered to watch Astri and Ana duel. Astri wants to try and give Ana a lesson that will make her stop bothering her family forever.

"Ana! We’re prospering and our tribe is stronger because of them. Fighting Astri is disrespecting them!" Shung barks at Ana.

"It’s not. Any female can duel the other for her males." Ana responds,

"Do you think you can defeat her? And even if you do, they won’t come with you. They love her and won’t ever leave her because of this ridiculous fight." Shung says.

"I believe all of them are males of their word, besides the snake. The snake can leave." Ana is concentrated and blind now, everything she wants is Astri’s head. freёweɓnovel.com

"Listen to us just this time, Ana.. Stop it." One of Ana’s spouses speaks.

"Are you not scared of what might happen to us too? Her males will revenge her on us." Another of her spouses says.

"Shut up! If you’re not going to help defeat her, don’t stay in my way! I’m doing this for us to have the sole power again." Ana speaks.

"Don’t put us in this! I don’t want to lose their partnership!" Shung stomps away.

Astri was waiting they finish talking with crossed arms. She looks pretty calm for someone who might lose all of her mates, and everyone notices that.

"Lee? Would you make the honors, love? Let’s finish this, we still have dinner to prepare." Astri says to Lee.

Lee smiles proudly at his female. He gives Yuki to Wayde and then goes back to where Ana and Astri are waiting.

"This duel will end when any of you give up or lose consciousness. Killing is forbidden and will result in banishment." Lee speaks.

"Shifting is allowed." Ana says.

Lee looked at Astri, who simply shrugged shoulders.

"All right. You can fight in whatever form you want. You can start." Lee speaks.

Astri’s spouses can’t deny that they were curious to watch Astri fighting. Even Claud who visited her memories wants to watch that for real. The others around are curious to actually see Astri shifting for once.

Ana jumps with her hands shifted and with long claws trying to slash Astri. Astri purposely lets her make the first move, then she diverts to the side pushing one of Ana’s arms to the side to then give a firm slap on her ear.

Jumping back dizzy and with her eardrum buzzing, Ana puts some space between her and Astri. Ana tries attacking Astri again, but she diverts her body again holding both of Ana’s arms and pulling her down to knee her nose.

After kneeing Ana’s nose, Astri turns and pulls Ana’s head to throw her on the ground with a judo attack. Everyone voiced their amazement at seeing that style of fighting.

"Oh my... I’ll be undone when this fight ends." Lee whispers to himself, but his companion spouses agree with him.

"I’m the next. Remember?" Cyprian says.

"Shut up."

No one is blinking watching that duel. Astri lets Ana stand up again and dodges Ana’s attacks and counter-attacking with punches on Ana’s face. Astri gives a full spin to dodge when Ana jumps on her again, she uses her movement to give a stronger punch behind Ana’s head.

Ana falls again dizzy, but when she sees Astri’s feet she grabs one. Everyone imagined Astri would have a hard time after that, but she quickly jumps forward and knee Ana’s chin. When Astri mounts Ana and starts punching her, Ana shifts to her wolf form and kicks Astri away.

Astri only fought those wolf ferals long ago, and some monsters. However, she’s sure she can predict Ana’s movements. She can’t use her powers or shift entirely, so she must be careful.

When she was watching Ana’s movements, she could sense everything in her in slow motion. Nature is telling her everything, she can sense the wind around Ana and the earth’s vibrations.

Ana rounds Astri and when she believes Astri made the wrong move with her feet. Astri dodges Ana’s head and grabs the skin and fur from Ana’s neck. Then with a swift movement, she rolls on Ana’s head pulling her hand and making Ana contort her head and fall to the ground.

Astri presses Ana’s arteries with her leg stopping her blood flow. Ana growls and barks, kicking her paws around to try to move, but Astri has her grab on her neck tight and strong.

When Ana’s feeling her eyes wanting to black out she stops moving, making everyone understand that she gives up. Astri lets her go, but right after she does that Ana goes for her throat taking everyone by surprise.

Astri half-shifts flying away, everyone is amazed by her pure white broad wings.

"I don’t even know why I still believe in you." Astri says looking at Ana.

Astri lands on the ground slowly. Unmated males are drooling at her, and that makes her spouses release their auras to keep them away.

"I think this is finished. Everyone saw you have given up." Lee says to Ana.

Ana barks not agreeing. Astri shifts to her human form again, hiding her wings.

"Let her. She talks about honor like she had any." Astri speaks.

She had dodged again quickly when Ana ran to attack her from nowhere again. Everyone can see that Ana is retorting to desperate movements.

Astri finds an opening and kicks Ana’s throat, making her cough and lose her breath. She swiftly dodges and kicks, dodges and punches Ana many times.

"Astri learned these movements by herself?" Cyprian asks, impressed.

"She had to learn how to survive in her conditions." Wayde answers.

Ana is tired, with bleeding wounds on her face, but her hatred is burning. Astri didn’t even shift to fight her, only to dodge her once.

Ana shifts, her body is full of bruises and wounds. Astri looks at her males with a warning in her eye to not look at another female who is naked.

They smile even more excited at her possessiveness towards them and fix their eyes on her.

"Do you give up?" Lee asks Ana without looking at her.

"Yes.." Ana says limping to Astri. "Mark my words. This is not finished yet." Ana growls at Astri.

"I expected nothing less coming from you, dear sister-in-law." Astri sneers, and turns around to leave.

In a blink of an eye, Ana tries to slash Astri’s back. Astri sensed her and before Lee jumped to try to save Astri, she dodged and hit her elbow strongly in Ana’s nose.

Ana falls back and on her butt, with her nose bleeding. She’s fighting to keep her consciousness, and when Astri walks in her direction again, Ana tries running away stumbling. Astri stops and sighs at that scene.

"Do you think it worths your lifetime to still keep feeding this kind of feeling inside of you? Take this time that you’re poisoning your heart and learn something new. Support your males to become stronger and build your own castle to have your family protected. You need to learn once and for all that if you keep doing things only for yourself, you will have exactly what you’re looking for. Only you will have things, but no one will like you, and even your males will be with you only for the obligation. Why do you want a castle if you don’t care about who is there with you? Why do you want to own this tribe if you don’t care about who lives here? If you live in a castle and the people suffer attacks on their own, they will leave. You will have a castle but no one. Start thinking before adding more poison to your heart. Always question yourself if it’s going to be worth your time. And remember that no one survives alone, and no one grows alone." Astri speaks and then walks to her males.

Everyone cheers for Astri, clapping hands and howling. The females are not cheering, but they’re not against them. Astri looks around confused and then at her mates, their smiles showing pride.

Claud hugs her waist and kisses her head.

"Let’s go home." Claud says.

When they start walking away, they notice Ana’s females following them.

"What do you want?" Cyprian asks them pushing them away with his aura.

"Ana said that if she won she would have all of Lady Astri’s males. Since she lost the duel, all of us belong to Lady Astri now." One of them answers.

Everyone looks at Astri expectantly. Her spouses with worried eyes, not wanting new males, but in the blink of an eye, they got relieved too.

"No, thank you. I’m not interested in having so many males. You’re good males, worrying about that piece of trash over there, but remember that you’re living beings too. She’s a female, yes. She needs respect, yes. She needs protection, yes. But that doesn’t mean she’s allowed to treat anyone badly. Good fruits only come with good nurturing. Everyone needs respect and love. Males and females. If at least one of you learns that after this duel, it’s enough for me." Astri speaks, then walks away followed by her spouses.

At home, Astri had to keep hearing her excited and proud spouses, but she had to order them to go have a cold bath so they stop showing their things to the kids. She knows they get excited when they see her protecting them, but that day made them so excited and aroused she’s scared of going into the bedroom by herself.
