Bear It to the End Episode One

When a wolf starts running, he’ll catch his prey one way or another.
And Mina Howard just became prey. The normal graphic artist just lost her job. With no money, she sells plasma to the local werewolf clinic for 100 quick bucks. It buys a night in a cheap motel and a ticket to hell. Her blood’s got a secret – one the city’s Alpha needs, and Bane Vels will stop at nothing to stay on top. When he locates Mina, he goes in person and locks on. He knows she’ll be an easy target – her powers haven’t activated yet. But he doesn’t account for the ex-army bear-shifter next door.
Alex Cayble quit magical special ops two years ago, but the talented ex-soldier’s good at only one thing. With his massive body and sheer brute strength, he’s become a cheap magical bounty hunter for hire. When his friend dies after crossing Bane, he’ll jump at the chance for revenge. It comes sooner than he thinks. While staying at the cheapest motel this side of a roach palace, he stops Bane and his boys from kidnapping the intriguing Mina.
Bane won’t stop at one attempt, and he won’t tolerate interference. Not when Mina’s blood can cement his rule for decades to come. He’ll chase Alex and Mina across the country, from cities to ports to the rolling hills of Wolf Gorge. The brutal Alpha will throw assassins, puppets, and mind jugglers at the fleeing pair. With Alex’s raw power and Mina’s emerging magic, they’ll fight, but some battles can’t be won for long. As they’re plunged into a non-stop, punishing pursuit, they’ll fall for one another. But the forces keeping them apart are stronger. The hard-nosed ex-soldier made a promise he can’t break, and the power in Mina’s blood can’t be tamed for long.
Can Alex and Mina escape Bane before he tears the country apart? And will the great bear bend and take Mina before the power in her veins rips her apart for good?
One way or another, at the end of the chase, they’ll find out and so will you.
