Stolen Parts — Tim Niederriter

Some parts you can live without, but everyone needs a heart.
Smalltime necromancers get by any way they can. Sometimes that means talking to spirits or animating the dead. Sometimes it gets worse. Odette thought her biggest problem was an argument with her boyfriend. But when a master necromancer literally steals her heart, the man on the verge of breaking up with her is her only hope for survival.

This is a short story, about 20 pages in length.
