No reborn

You awoke in a strange place, feeling odd. You mind was not working properly. You drifted in and out, getting flashes of a life that was not your own. Crawling, learning to talk and the embrace of your mother. But she was not your mother, she was a tiger, you were a human. No you were a tiger now.

It was common for reborn people to regain memories of their past life in early childhood. by the age of 4 they would fully recognise both their new self and their old self.

Your new name was Orion. Terra was your new mother, She was doing her best as a single mother who got pregnant in high school. Turns out sex with Terra was enough for Anthony to come out as Bi but not enough to make him love or even help out Terra after he found out she was knocked up. His dad, a rich and powerful salesman, gave Terra a deal. A set monthly sum until you were 18 to "make the problem go away." Your mum knew that she was not going to get anything out of Anthony as he had failed (without your help) and dropped out of high school. His athletic career was going nowhere, and he now worked at the local gym.

With your experience from both lives, you wanted nothing to do with Anthony, so your mother's decision to take the money and move was great. When your memory came in, you asked to visit your human mother. She was happy to hear you had been reborn, but she and Syruys had already replaced you with a kid of their own.

You lived your new life as Orion the tiger, at the top of the food chain and in dominance.
