Wolf Fever
Blurb
When Raine Bowe volunteers for a sleep study for the extra cash, she didn't expect to wake in a lab or to be victimized by a mad scientist. She escapes with one objective--to find someone strong enough to wage war with the evil growing inside her.

Excerpt
Run!
The loud hammering of Raine’s heart drowned out
the single word bouncing around her mind—and the dogs barking at her back.
Their angry growls faded the faster she ran. A little further. Just a little
more, and she’d be home free.
Trees swooshed past her with every step she
took away from the small isolated facility. She ignored the hospital gown
swinging against her legs and the blood dripping down her arms from the torn
IVs. Barefoot, the rocks bit into the soles of her feet. None of that mattered.
She had to survive. Her life depended on getting as far away from that place as
possible.
Inhaling the comforting scent of mud, trees,
and the wild, she barely heard the barking over the breeze rustling through the
willows with each step she put between them. At any other time, she’d have
dissected her reaction to the forest. Not now. And she didn’t stop. No way was
she getting captured again without a fight.
Air beat in and out of her lungs in tandem with
the pounding of her feet on the rocky ground. Moonlight filtered through the
branches overhead, highlighting her path. Her hair caught on the tree limbs,
snatching at the loose strands. Some of the hanging vines prodded her arms and
stabbed her sides. Her breath hitched, and she missed a step, lurching forward.
Something inside her tightened. Her arms swayed and her core muscles flexed.
Before she face planted, everything balanced out. She blinked. More scared now
than she’d ever been in her life. Something controlled her body and it had
reflexes far superior to a normal human.
Moisture gathered in her eyes, blurring her
vision. She blinked it away. Panic would only get her caught.
Raine glanced at the moon. It had shifted
twice—now in front of her, rather than behind. She stilled. The trees rustled
with the wind. An owl hooted. But she still didn’t hear the annoying bay of the
dogs.
Ragged breaths beat hard in her ears. A horn’s
blare sounded in the distance. Fear and excitement gave her a burst of energy.
Cars meant help. She urged her body faster.
Street lights peeked through the trees. Air
panted out of her chest. A second car honked, speeding past another. She was
almost there. So close. Thank god. She was going to make it.
Slowing down at the edge of a hill, she darted
glances around the now quiet street. No people milled about or walked around.
Nothing. A big store, one she recognized from the one time she’d gotten lost in
the shadier side of town, sat a block to her right. The sudden quiet made sense
now. Nothing good happened this far south of Tempting Eats. It was known as the
dead side. The thought alone gave her chills. Women went missing…all the time.
That had been enough to keep her uptown in suburbia-peace-nation.
She glanced around, searching for anyone who
might be waiting for her or even any of the dangerous men her neighbors said
roamed the streets, but there was nothing, not a single being. Her feet hit the
pavement in a rush. Once across the street, she hid inside a dark alley. The stench
of rotting food and piss coated the air with a thick blanket of disease and
chaos. Her throat convulsed, and the acidic taste of bile hit the back of her
tongue.
Retreating,
she took several steps toward the end of the street to a small motel. Its yellow,
neon Vacancy sign blinked on and off with a buzz. A man’s yell pushed her to
slink into the dark. The sound came from the shadows in front of the motel.
