Once Bitten, Twice Burned

The world-building around shapeshifters felt fresh and layered. I'm curious whether this was inspired by existing mythology or an entirely new creation.

The hesitations and betrayals added depth but also kept me wondering if trust can truly be rebuilt after such scars. Did others find it realistic or frustrating?

The curse added a compelling layer of stakes and conflict. Wondering if it was inspired by personal experiences or classic folklore adapted in a new way.
