Another post from the unedited Guardian of the Deep (Wytchfae 2), scheduled to be published in June, to celebrate a contract for six more books in the series:
Cella looked at Bane and shook her head. Then her gaze fell back on Layla. “I waited here for you to show up. If you didn’t come soon, I planned to try to find you in the Guardian’s undersea domain, though I’ve never—” A horrific gasp wrenched from Cella’s throat, and the young Wytchfae collapsed. In an attempt to support her friend’s limp body, Layla sank to the floor with her. 
Oh, I have to learn what happened! A great hook, Flossie. It starts rather innocently and the abrupt turn of events is both disconcerting and intriguing.
What happened? Why did she collapse? I must know, I’m hooked!
You have us all wondering now…so I hope you post more in the future.
Well, this is tantalising. Great snippet.
Oh! Want to know what happened!! Great hook!!
Ok, I have a love/hate relationship with hooks. I love to read them and hate when they end! Great hook!
What happened? Loved it. Looking forward to more.
A most intriguing hook! Well done! 🙂
Eek! Oh no! Great hook! 🙂
Oh no! What happened? That’s quite a hook, making us desperate to know why she collapsed. Dagger in the back??
Great hook! 🙂
Interesting. Sounds heartbreaking would love to know more
That’s a change of tone! Grand hook.
What happened? What made her collapse? Nice way to end this.
Your writing and imagination amazes me sometimes. Loved the hook. Oh…and the pic of the ocean makes me feel all warm inside on this cold day in TN.
You’ve definitely hooked me and now I need more. !!
What a great place to end it – now we all have to know!
No, no, no! You can’t leave us hanging like that! What happened? I need to know! Please continue posting from this next week…please? *bats eyelashes* Great hook!
