THE STORY OF THE PANTHER SHEILA
| PANTHER TIA |
6°part
The sun had already risen high above the forest when Sheila's tribe left the cursed clearing near the sacred tree. The half-naked bodies of panthers glided between the trunks like shadows, leaving behind the scent of blood and death. Sheila walked ahead, her powerful thighs and full breasts glistening with sweat, her green eyes scanning the undergrowth in search of a new refuge—a place where the black panther wouldn't find them so easily.
Lyra walked beside her, leaning on Kaira's strong shoulder. The wound on her bronze side still ached beneath the bandage, but her amber eyes burned with determination. "We are not weak," she whispered hoarsely. "The prey saved us. Now we hunt again."

Nayra followed behind, her ebony skin blending with the shadows, her bone beads jingling softly. She was silent, but everyone sensed it: the shamanka was already seeing new visions in the morning smoke—paths leading deeper into the forest, to hidden waterfalls and caves where the tribe could renew its strength.
The bound slaves—the gray-haired merchant and Selena—walked in the center of the column, guided by ropes. The man stumbled, fear weakening his legs, but Selena stood upright: her pale body, now completely naked, was covered in beads of sweat, her dark hair stuck to her back, and her eyes, wide open, greedily absorbed every movement of the savages. Admiration for these strong, indomitable females was already awakening within her.
The tribe emerged into a narrow gorge, where the cliffs closed overhead and a hidden stream gurgled below. Sheila raised her hand, stopping the sisters. The air was cooler here, the scent of fresh water beckoned, and the high walls promised protection from large predators.
*Here,* the leader said in a low growl. *A new clearing. A new life.*
The savages scattered: some climbed the rocks, checking the approaches, others dove into the stream, washing the traces of blood and night from their bodies. Kaira pushed the merchant to his knees by the water. *Drink and wash your sisters' feet, male. Earn the right to live until sunset.*
Selena was led to Sheila. The leader grabbed her chin, forcing her face up. Green eyes bored into dark ones.
*You have seen our strength,* Sheila whispered. *You have seen death and sacrifice. Now choose: become one of us... or remain a toy like him.*
Selena trembled, but her voice held a challenge. *I... want to become a panther.*
Lyra, sitting on a rock by the stream, grinned, her amber eyes flashing. *Then prove it. Tonight is your test.*
The tribe began setting up a new camp: they wove snares, built a fire, sharpened knives. Naked bodies moved in a harmonious dance of power and passion. The black panther remained behind, sated with prey. But the jungle always demanded new blood—and new males.
Sheila sat down on a high rock, looking around at her sisters. Her lips curved into a predatory smile.
*Rest, sisters. Tomorrow is the big hunt. The city is close. There are many strong males there... and much prey.*
As the sun sank behind the gorge's cliffs and the stream whispered its nightly secrets, Sheila's panther tribe gathered in a tight circle around the fire. The fire cast long shadows across the half-naked bodies of the savages, highlighting every muscle, every curve of their hips and breasts. The air was thick with the scent of smoke, damp earth, and feminine heat.
Selena stood in the center, completely naked. Her pale skin seemed almost glowing in the flames' reflection, her long dark hair fell down her back, and her chest heaved with rapid breathing. Her wrists were bound behind her back with a thin rope... not tight enough to allow her to move, but enough to remind her: she was not yet a panther.
Sheila rose from the rock where she had been sitting like a queen. Her powerful body slowly approached Selena, her green eyes boring into the newcomer's, cold and appraising.
"You asked to become one of us," the leader said in a low, velvety growl. "Now prove yourself worthy. The test of three touches. Endure, and you will become a sister. Surrender, and you will remain a slave forever."
Lyra, sitting on the skins by the fire, grinned, her amber eyes flashing. Her wound was already healing into a deep scar, and she leaned forward impatiently. Kaira stood to Sheila's right, her fingers playing with a bone knife. Naira remained silent in the shadows, but everyone felt her gaze—the shamanka was seeing whether Selena's soul would pass the spirits' test.
The first touch—fire.
Sheila took a thin, burning branch from the fire. The flames licked the wood, but the leader held it steady. Slowly, never taking her gaze from Selena's, she ran the burning tip a centimeter from her skin—first along her neck, then along her collarbone, down between her breasts, across her stomach, almost touching her nipples and pubis. The heat seared, Selena's skin flushed, but she didn't retreat, didn't scream. Only her teeth clenched, and a defiant gleam blazed in her eyes.
"Good," Sheila whispered, throwing the branch into the fire.
The second touch—pain.
Kaira stepped forward. The knife in her hand flashed. She walked around behind Selena and, in one swift motion, drew the tip down her back—not deeply, only leaving a thin red streak from her shoulder blade to her lower back. Blood beaded, trickling down her thighs. Selena shuddered, but straightened proudly, her chest rising with a deep breath. Not a groan, not a tear.
Lyra growled approvingly. *The panther's blood was already in her.*
The third touch—desire.
Sheila nodded to Lyra. The first mate rose, her bronze body moving with the grace of a wounded but still deadly predator. She approached Selena, chest to chest, hip to hip. Lyra's fingers slid along the newcomer's neck, then down—circling a nipple, squeezing it, hardening it. Her other hand settled between Selena's thighs, finding the hot wetness and slowly, commandingly entering.
Selena's entire body trembled. Her eyes closed, her lips parted in a soft moan—not pain, but surrender to the sisters' strength. Lyra took her time: she moved deeply, confidently, making Selena arch, seeking more. Sheila watched, her green eyes blazing. Kaira came up behind her, pressed herself against Selena's back, her lips finding the fresh cut and slowly licking away the blood. When Selene finally arched in a spasm of pleasure, loudly breathing out Sheila's name, the circle of panthers growled—low, satisfied.
Lyra retreated. Kyra cut the vine on Selene's wrists. Sheila stepped forward and smeared the blood from the cut onto the newcomer's cheek with her own hand—a ritual mark.
"Now you are a panther," the leader said. "The old name remains in the past, along with your weakness and the city chains," Sheila said in a low, commanding growl that echoed off the rocks. "From this moment on, you are Tala. Claw. Because today you showed claws, not tears."
Lyra, lying nearby on the skins, bared her teeth in a satisfied smile. Her amber eyes flashed with approval. "Tala," she repeated hoarsely, tasting the new name. "It works. Sharp claws are for males and enemies."
Kaira stepped closer and ran the tip of her knife across the fresh mark on Tala's cheek—not deeply, only intensifying the ritual blood. "Tala," she confirmed. "Now you are ours. Completely."
Naira, sitting in the shadows, quietly growled the ancient words of blessing, and all the sisters joined in—a low, guttural chorus that made even the bound merchant in the corner shrink into the ground.
Sheila pulled Tala close—chest to chest, hip to hip—and sank her lips into a long, hard kiss of dominatrix. When she pulled away, blood and fire remained on both their lips. "Welcome to the tribe, Tala," the leader whispered. "You are now Sheila's panther."
Tala—formerly Selena—straightened, her chest heaving proudly, her eyes blazing with a new, wild gleam. She growled in response, truly for the first time, and the sound merged with the roar of the entire tribe.
In the pre-dawn gloom of the gorge, with the dew still chilling the panthers' naked bodies, the elder trader managed to bite through the weakened rope that bound his wrists. Fear gave him strength: he crawled silently away from the fire where his sisters slept and disappeared into the thicket, heading toward the distant fires of Laurium. His heart pounded, his gray hair plastered to his forehead with sweat, but he ran, knowing that pursuit would soon follow.
Sheila woke first—the instinct of a leader. Her green eyes flashed with fury when she saw the empty space at the edge of the camp. A quiet growl awakened the others. Lyra wanted to follow, but the wound still rankled, and Sheila stopped her with a commanding gesture.
*You will remain with the tribe. Kaira and I—we'll get him back.*
Kaira was already on her feet, her dark eyes blazing with the hunt's passion. Her naked body tensed, the charcoal stripes on her chest and belly like black claws in the morning light. Two panthers slid into the jungle—silent, deadly.
The merchant reached Laurium by midday, barely alive from fatigue and scratches. The city gates opened before him—the guards recognized the renowned merchant. He burst into the main square, shouting of wild panthers, of kidnapping, of the caravan's destruction.
He was met by Lady Mali, the head of the Laurium merchant caste, a stern and imperious woman. Her fair hair was neatly piled high on her head, adorned with golden pins bearing the emblem of scales and coins. An ivory silk dress clung to her slender body, accentuating her high bust and narrow waist. Her eyes, cold and gray as steel, listened attentively to the merchant's halting tale.
*Panthers in our forest?* she asked in a calm but firm voice. *This is a threat to trade routes. I will ask the Tatrix to send a detachment of warriors. You are safe, Master Renard. Rest. Your losses will be reimbursed from the caste's treasury.* The merchant collapsed at her feet, kissing the hem of her dress in gratitude.
And in the shadow of the dense thicket at the very edge of Laurium, two panthers watched.
Sheila and Kaira lay on their stomachs on a high hill, their naked bodies blending with the grass and foliage. Sheila's green eyes narrowed, taking in the city: the high walls, the towers with the caste flags, the bustling markets where men in colorful tunics traded and women in silks and chains scurried among the stalls. Many males—strong, rich, with or without steel collars. Plenty of prey.
Kaira growled softly, her fingers digging into the ground.
*Look, my leader,* she whispered. *There are hundreds of them. In cages of stone and law. And this one... with the blond tuft... does she rule them all?* The last phrase sounded like a question.
Sheila smiled—slowly, predatorily. Her full chest rose in a deep breath, a deep breath, the muscles in her thighs tensed.
*He slipped away today. But the city... the city will not slip away. We'll be back.*
Kaira bared her teeth in response, her dark eyes flashing.
*And we'll take not just one slave. But many.*
The two panthers retreated silently into the jungle, leaving Laurium in the dark.
