Endure (The Protector #4)
by
M.R. Merrick
Wrapped in darkness and woven with defeat, every action Chase has taken
since being exiled from the Circle has been met with a devastating response.
Now he's been burdened with a quest that seems impossible, and he needs to
evolve into something more, something greater than he ever thought he could be.
Armed with magic, friendship, and an unbreakable will, Chase must build an army
and find a weapon capable of defeating the ultimate evil. But he knows that
nothing great comes without sacrifice. Blessed by the very gods who have
abandoned him and carrying the fate of all the worlds on his shoulders, Chase
Williams is about find out just how much one man can endure.
Excerpt:
I jerked up from the couch, but the repercussion that came with the motion
made me curse. My chest heaved and sweat dripped down my face.
“Chase?” I heard a voice say, but it was groggy. I wasn’t quite in reality
yet.
I cleared my throat and threw my legs over the edge of the couch. More pain
came, but I didn’t care. I needed to touch the floor. I needed to ground
myself.
“Chase, are you okay?” It was Rayna’s voice and she ran down the stairs.
I screamed as the scabbed over skin on my back tore open when I attempted to
stand. I fell to the couch and beat my fists against the cushions as though
that could alleviate the pain.
“Chase, hey…calm down.”
Rayna’s voice soothed me. She crouched in front of me and carefully touched
my shoulder. Calming energy emanated off her body and soaked into mine. The
adrenaline and pain faded, leaving an empty pit stirring inside me. I went
completely still. The green cat eyes staring back at me had stolen my words and
my breath. Swelling had formed under Rayna’s right eye and she looked tired,
but she was as striking as ever.
“Are you okay?” she asked.
About the Author:
M.R. Merrick is a Canadian writer, and author of Exiled, the first
installment in The Protector Series. Having never traveled, he adventures to
far off lands through his imagination and in between cups of coffee. As a music
lover and proud breakfast enthusiast, he's usually found at the computer,
between a pair of headphones and in front of a large bowl of cereal.
Chase Williams is a demon hunter in the Circle, or at least he was supposed
to be. On his fifteenth birthday, Chase stepped up to the altar to claim his
elemental power, but it never came. Elemental magic is passed down to a hunter
through the bloodline, but on Chase's birthday, the bloodline stopped.
Exiled without the Circle's protection, Chase has spent two years trying to
survive a world riddled with half-demons and magic. When he has a run in with a
frightened and seemingly innocent demon, he learns the Circle's agenda has
changed: the Circle plans to unlock a portal and unleash pure-blood demons into
the world. Vowing to stop them, and knowing he can't do it alone, Chase forms a
reluctant alliance with Rayna — a sexy witch with an attitude and a secret.
In their attempt to stop them, Chase and Rayna find themselves in the middle of
the Circle's plan, leaving one of them to decide what their friendship is
worth, and the other's life depending on it.
