    Summary

    What if Elizabeth Bennet had met not a romantic hero, but a less idealised representative of his privileged class and era?

    Fitzwilliam Darcy here does not follow his canonical redemption arc by choosing to learn better. He has wealth and power, and uses both without scruples.

    The social context of early nineteenth-century England was often harsh for the most vulnerable, including women. Their options were cruelly limited by law, custom, and economic dependency, especially when opposed to ruthless men of consequence.

    Not every story ends where you expect. Sometimes the villain stays a villain.

    Content includes themes of explicit, coerced intimacy, emotional manipulation, and morally ambiguous behaviour. Please read with care.

    Intended for adult readers (18+).

    This novel is complete. A new chapter will be posted weekly, usually on Mondays or Fridays.

    Summary

    Elizabeth was feverish.

    Her cheeks were rosy, her forehead sweating and she’d been reading the same sentence again, and again, and again. The word looked like a blur. Just letters on a screen, almost dancing, almost falling.

    She might be sick.

    No, no.

    What a tragedy it would be, if she fainted in front of a stranger? but look at the bright side, at least Jane has a date.
