This story is inspired by Jane Austin's Pride & Prejudice. A hasty and unplanned visit to Netherfield by the Bennet family starts a procession of unforeseen occurrences. Unwittingly, Elizabeth is caught in a compromising situation with Mr Darcy and is obliged to marry. Mr Darcy is not averse to having Elizabeth as his wife. Elizabeth is horrified at the prospect. She is marrying Mr Darcy only because of her sense of duty and a need to protect her sisters' reputations from any gossip being spread abroad by others. Elizabeth constantly laments her fate until Jane convinces her to accept the marriage and attempt to know and love her husband. On the day of the wedding, Mr Darcy overhears a half finished conversation on how to capture a rich husband by tricks and stratagems. Elizabeth's younger sisters congratulate her on following Mrs Bennet's advice. Compromised into wedlock, Mr Darcy is under the impression that he has been hoodwinked by the scheming Mrs Bennet and Elizabeth. Destined to spend his life with a woman he can never trust, Mr Darcy at times displays another side to his character as he tries to come to terms with the consequences of being forced into marriage. This story follows the couple through the first few weeks of their marriage and the different stages of emotions experienced by both characters: disappointment, anger, confusion, disbelief, and desire.
