Baby Lynx of the Tiger Family

I am Bariya, the greatest wildcat shifter in the world! (Age 10) One day, after losing my mother to hyenas and being hounded by them every single day—

“A kitten?”

I got caught by a fierce tiger shifter who couldn't even tell a wildcat and a cat apart! I was ready to scratch his face right off and make a run for it, until—

“You hate hyenas too? So do we. Let’s form an alliance.”

I figured I'd just stay under their protection since we shared a common enemy. Except…

*“Little one, do you like shoulder rides?” “Eat up. Eat more! Keep eating until you’re so round you roll around!”

“Play with me today!”*

Why on earth are these tigers being so sweet to me?!
