Darcy Makes a Deal: A Pride and Prejudice Variation
Elaine Burkett
With jealousy burning in his chest, he sets out the next day to convince Mr. Bennet to refuse consent rather than forcing the issue. Though he is met with some initial resistance, the two men eventually come to an agreement, after which Darcy has one month to convince the lovely and entrancing Miss Elizabeth to marry him.
After the Bingleys leave the neighborhood for London, Darcy settles into Netherfield with his sister, his cousin, and his friend and commences his campaign to improve his character and win her respect and, hopefully, her love.
