    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

    The new residents of Netherfield Park are horrified when a young woman is viciously attacked less than a mile from their home. Discovered by Mr. Darcy, she is brought to Netherfield Park to recover. When Elizabeth Bennet wakes up in a strange house with jagged wounds marring her skin, all she can remember is wretched, screaming terror. The only thing she knows for sure is that it will happen again - and that nobody is safe. Horror/Mystery fic with lots of drama, finger-pointing, vicious comments and suspicious mobs, growing romance, and a happy ending.

    Summary

    "Welcome home," she said, and heard the brittleness in her own voice, the mockery of the sentiment.

    "This has not been home for some time, madam. For either of us."

    Then he was gone, and Elizabeth was left in her carefully claimed sitting room, staring at a book she could not read, wondering how they had arrived at this--two people bound together by law and circumstance, which neither could escape, circling each other like wounded animals in a house too small for their shared misery.

    ***

    Trapped in an unhappy marriage, Elizabeth learns how to love her husband.
