She Returned Beneath the Panther Moon

Liora Vale wakes in an all-female beastfolk tribe as its most feared villainess—a silver-fox woman who can't remember hurting her family. Daughter Nyla flinches from her; wife Veyra watches for lies. But this Liora carries a modern soul: warm meals, better tools, promises kept. Nyla stops running. Veyra dares to hope. Then the Moon-Bond wakes buried memories—and one chilling question: did the same soul return from the lake?
