Larkspur - V M Jaskiernia [Mobi/Epub/PDF] torrent

A novelette by V. M. Jaskiernia, LARKSPUR is a dark fantasy romance where a necromancer must try and balance his love for childhood sweetheart, Elizabeth Anne, and the lady of death herself.


Pierre Salvador has returned to court after graduating early, and a party in his honour happens that very evening. But feeling unwell so shortly after his travels the princeling excuses himself from dancing-and-flirting with Lady Elizabeth Anne, and retreats to his room with a black cat in tow. In addition to medical studies, Pierre has almost finished the last task set by Mora, lady of death, to complete his knowledge of necrocræft. Enthralled with the illegal magic, the power over life and death, he consorts with Mora as he also begins to court Elizabeth.

Pierre then snapped his fingers, smearing blood on his hand, and quite the opposite took place—a flower returned to life. New buds and leaves poked from the stem, and the roots grew long. He leaned over and replanted it.
