Chapter One
Lillian sat curled on the couch and stared at the television, a cup of tea growing cold in her hands. Every few seconds, her attention switched between the media’s special presentation covering the events of the night before and the messenger spells her grandmother was weaving where she sat on the opposite end of the couch.
The powerful spell Gregory had summoned to heal the Fae injured during the Rivens’ attack had also knocked out the power grid, cell phone service, radio, internet, and most other modern conveniences.
Only after the battle’s subsequent cleanup had they learned those services were down. The power grid came back online first, followed by radio and television. Unfortunately, cell service was still down.
Hence why Gran was using messenger spells to relay orders and news among the Clan and Coven. Gran whispered the ending incantations of the spell. The letter she held flared with light as magic transformed it into the shape of a hummingbird. It hovered above Gran’s open palm for a moment more before zipping out the open patio doors.
Lillian stared at where it had been, still mesmerized by the whimsical, though presently useful, bit of magic. It was the fifth one Gran had made, and Lillian still marvelled at it.

Résumé
Some victories feel more like defeat.
Although the Siren’s downfall was necessary, it also brought about a growing divide between Lillian and Gregory. However, personal matters will have to wait, for there is a more immediate concern which must be dealt with first.
Human authorities are now aware that something equally as intelligent but far more deadly shares their world, and Lillian’s hometown has been placed under quarantine. To her dismay, it is not just a guns in the woods, boots on the ground kind of hunt. Scientists are spearheading this pursuit. Lillian soon learns she and Gregory are their intended targets.
And this just might be one hunt her gargoyle protector is ill prepared for.
Author's Note: Sorceress Hunting was previously published as Stone’s Divide and was part of the Urban Fantasy series called The Avatars.
