Summary
When Elizabeth Bennet receives word of Lydia’s scandal while visiting Derbyshire, her world begins to unravel. A death in the family soon follows, and with it, the weight of duty grows heavier than ever. Now living in London with her relatives, far from all she once knew, Elizabeth must navigate grief, social expectations, and an unexpected proposal.
She is willing to do whatever it takes to protect those she loves, but at what cost? Can love still bloom when honor demands sacrifice?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elizabeth is no longer the spirited girl we first met—grief, loss, and the burden of responsibility have altered her. And yet, even in her silence, her will to protect those she loves remains unbroken.
This is a tale of emotional survival, redemption, and the quiet power of enduring love.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. I hope you’ll find in this version of Elizabeth and Darcy something both familiar and new.

Summary
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Mr Mycroft Holmes is the most dangerous man in London. Yet, one evening finds him engaged in a wholly uncharacteristic pursuit of a young lady in the hopes of advancing his own personal happiness. While Mycroft inadvertently channels his inner Mr Darcy (or perhaps even the dreaded Mr Collins), his “Elizabeth” is decidedly unimpressed. Wooing ladies is indeed difficult when you are the nigh omniscient and omnipotent shadow government. But, perhaps, they may eventually find a mutually beneficial arrangement.
