The Magpie: Lord Pdf |link|
Desperate, Lucien hires Stephen Day, a "practitioner of the magical arts" from the secretive Justiciary Office. Stephen is bitter, underpaid, and wants nothing to do with the aristocratic "magpie lord"—whose family motto is "Take, take, take." But as the curse intensifies, forcing a violent, erotic magical bond between them, Stephen realizes the only way to save Lucien is to trust a man who has every reason to be a villain.
