Her covers ripped away, Elizabeth shivered in the bed as she saw her Aunt Maddie fully dressed and ready for the day.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;I prepared a bath and you must hurry to keep our appointment with Mrs. Carlton.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Elizabeth groaned. &#8220;How on earth do we already possess an appointment at the dressmaker\u2019s?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;A note personally to her house early this morning, for which I have received a response. She is willing to open up her shop one hour ahead of schedule for our pleasure.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Elizabeth rubbed her eyes and yawned before sliding her feet into her slippers and following her aunt to her bath. She could not stand on a footstool being measured and trying on various fabrics against her complexion with yesterday&#8217;s dirtiness from the park on her skin. Still, she grumbled as she shuffled down the hall behind her aunt.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;I cannot agree I require more new dresses. I just bought two for Jane&#8217;s wedding and they are quite nice.&#8221; In all of her life not a single visit to a modiste had been a pleasurable experience.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Standing outside the door to the bath, Mrs. Gardiner placed one hand on her hip and scowled at her niece. &#8220;I will not fall into the hysterics of your mother, but you have too much sense, Lizzie Bennet, to think you can court and engage yourself to a man of Mr. Darcy&#8217;s means without looking the part. We will have a dress made immediately for the theater, but you will need many more frocks as you will be expected to be on Mr. Darcy&#8217;s arm this spring.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Visions of dancing with her Mr. Darcy in every grand ballroom of London flitted through Elizabeth&#8217;s mind. It was a dream she could scarcely believe would happen. She offered her aunt a shy smile and agreed that as much as she hated visiting the dressmaker, her aunt was right. She wasted no more time in completing her toilette and dressing for the day&#8217;s activities.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">In the short carriage ride over to Bond Street, Elizabeth wondered when she and Mr. Darcy would actually get married. She knew they must play out the charade of indifferent acquaintances for his family until mid-April, but she wondered how much longer afterwards they would be forced to wait. Part of her wished to have a proper engagement of a few weeks after the Easter holiday, but she also reasoned that the two of them would likely wish to marry soon in order to begin their lives as husband and wife. Thinking about the little information she knew of such a future, Elizabeth giggled as she gazed out the window of the Gardiner carriage.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Mrs. Gardiner raised an eyebrow at the genuine mirth on her niece&#8217;s countenance. Any man that could make her Lizzie smile even when he was not present was suitable in Madeleine Gardiner&#8217;s mind. But if the suitor hurt her niece as her husband warned her last night when they retired for bed, she would not rest until he made amends. Feeling another wave of mild nausea wash over her body, she pulled a mint-scented handkerchief from her dress pocket. Elizabeth&#8217;s eyes widened at the familiar gesture she had seen her aunt perform on two previous occasions shortly before announcing herself with child. Out of politeness, Elizabeth did not comment on the handkerchief.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Modiste Henrietta Carlton welcomed Madeleine Gardiner and her niece into the shop as if she were welcoming old friends. As Elizabeth removed her gloves and bonnet, she was most flattered for the personal attention. The last time she had visited this shop, the attention had been squarely where it needed to be, upon Jane.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Awaiting her aunt to discuss terms with Mrs. Carlton, Elizabeth admired the many items on display she had not enjoyed an opportunity to peruse before. Listening to the shop owner haggle over the various materials Mrs. Gardiner insisted be brought out for her niece, Elizabeth cleared her throat. She knew of one fabric in particular she wanted more than any of the others.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;There was a lovely satin in a pale shade of blush offered to my sister, but we rejected it because it did not match her complexion. I should be thrilled with a gown made of it with delicate rosettes along the bust line.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Both older women peered at Elizabeth to consider her request, stunned the young woman had such specific ideas about her dress. Her aunt responded first. &#8220;That is an excellent choice, my dear, and if I may be so bold, I suggest we trim with a hunter green ribbon.&#8221; Mrs. Gardiner reached over to the display of ribbons and fingered the handsome green she had in mind.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With green being one of Elizabeth&#8217;s favorite colors, she smiled and nodded, accepting a chocolate offered by Mrs. Carlton. Escorted behind the screen by her aunt, as Elizabeth took her place to stand on the stool for measurements, she felt most pleased to experience such fuss over her person.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-th06tu2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-1658 elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"th06tu2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\">[swpm_protected not_for=\"3-4\" do_not_show_protected_msg=\"1\"]\n<center>\n<b>Advertisement<\/b>\n<\/center>\n[\/swpm_protected]<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-jnd4jmm elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-1589 elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"jnd4jmm\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\">[swpm_protected not_for=\"3-4\" do_not_show_protected_msg=\"1\"]\n<center>\n\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- 300 x 250 Google Ad For Chapters -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7008164687543724\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"5583540785\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/center>\n[\/swpm_protected]<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-nljoldv elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"nljoldv\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-nhayecn\" data-id=\"nhayecn\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-uvlbhdm elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"uvlbhdm\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Chapter 44 - By Consequence of Marriage, a Pride and Prejudice Variation<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ncyljeg elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ncyljeg\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">In Hertfordshire, Catherine Bennet found herself to be exceptionally lonely with the sudden loss of three sisters from a home usually filled with five girls. As the officers of the militia prepared to move to Brighton for the springtime, Kitty found herself less and less inclined to walk to Meryton with Lydia to visit her sister&#8217;s precious Lieutenant Denny.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Come on, Kitty. You know Lieutenant Denny will have a friend or two to amuse you.&#8221; Lydia tried to coax her sister into changing her mind.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Kitty shoved her sister&#8217;s hands away from her arm as Lydia tried to pull her sister from her window seat in the parlor. &#8220;Leave off! I don&#8217;t wish to go today.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Don&#8217;t be such a boor, Kitty. You and your sister should walk to Meryton and visit your Aunt Phillips while you&#8217;re out,&#8221; Mrs. Bennet opined.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;It&#8217;s too cold,&#8221; Kitty complained. &#8220;Besides, we visited Aunt Phillips yesterday. I want one day to stay indoors. I could work on my portrait of you, Lydia,&#8221; Kitty suggested. She had received a handsome drawing set from her sister Elizabeth, who now resided in London. With a bit of practice, Kitty had improved her skills immensely and had moved on most recently to capturing human subjects.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;That&#8217;s doubly boring, I don&#8217;t want to sit still for a silly sketch. Mama, make Kitty go to Meryton with me.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Kitty began shouting at the same time Lydia began shouting, and Mrs. Bennet started to complain about her nerves. The entire situation was spiraling into a nasty argument when Hill announced the arrival of Miss Maria Lucas. All three women ceased in their disagreement and Mrs. Bennet instructed Hill to show Miss Lucas in.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Dressed in a frock handed down from her sister Charlotte, Maria Lucas entered the parlor and curtsied. Responded to in kind by Kitty and Lydia, she offered her two friends in the neighborhood her famous crooked smile.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;I came here to share the good news!&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Tell us quickly, Miss Lucas. We are all in suspense to hear it,&#8221; Mrs. Bennet answered.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Miss Lucas opened her reticule to pull out a letter that had been folded extra small to fit into the tiny purse. &#8220;My sister Charlotte writes to me . . . and I am to visit her in Kent this spring!&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Mrs. Bennet frowned and Lydia cared not as she lay on the sofa more or less ignoring Maria Lucas. Kitty felt ashamed of her family members and welcomed Miss Lucas&#8217;s news with extra enthusiasm as compensation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;How wonderful! I can&#8217;t wait to see my sister Jane when she and her Mr. Bingley return to the neighborhood this spring. I am so happy you are to visit your own sister.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Yes, yes. We all have sisters who are married. These things happen, and they are of little to no consequence. You girls will see it will soon be, as they say, old hat,&#8221; Mrs. Bennet interjected with venom in her voice.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Kitty worried further discussion of Charlotte&#8217;s match with Mr. Collins would spur her mother into a tirade about the sister she may not mention: Elizabeth. Wishing to avoid another scene such as the one she experienced the last time the Bennets were invited to Lucas Lodge for dinner, Kitty took action.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Miss Lucas, I wonder if you would sit with me in the sunlight in the back of the house? I have received drawing materials and would quite like to capture the joy on your face in a sketch,&#8221; Kitty suggested.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Flattered at the offer of such an opportunity, Maria Lucas happily accepted her friend&#8217;s invitation and followed her to the back of the house. As soon as the two girls left the room, they could hear Lydia whining and complaining from the parlor and it was not long before Mrs. Bennet agreed to take the carriage with Lydia into town.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The two friends were quiet as Kitty worked diligently to fashion a rough outline of Maria&#8217;s face and add the details. Kitty asked a personal question for which she desperately wished an answer. Having witnessed the disastrous morning of Jane&#8217;s wedding day, Kitty still tried to work out why it was that her sister Elizabeth adamantly refused to marry Mr. Collins, yet Charlotte Lucas had no similar complaints. &#8220;Is your sister quite happy now she is settled?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">For a moment, the joy on Maria Lucas&#8217; face became shaded before she quickly recovered. &#8220;Charlotte has written of trials in adjusting to marriage. But I hope she is happy to have a home of her own.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The answer did little to help Kitty reason out why her family was so splintered, but she increased her attentions on her portrait. Moving quickly with the colored pastels, she made Maria&#8217;s face come to life and added a lovely rosette of flowers beside her cheek. Feeling satisfied she had done her best, she extended the picture to her friend.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Miss Lucas cooed in an overjoyed manner at the quality and subject matter of the piece, then right readily embraced Catherine Bennet and proclaimed her the best of friends.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;I came to share my news and I leave with a most prized treasure. Sadly, I must start back.

After Mr. Darcy, himself, is summoned to Brighton to hopefully solve two dilemmas with one wealthy member of the gentry, the whole militia is thrown into an uproar by Wickham&#8217;s most dastardly deed, yet. Together, Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy have to save Lydia from her own undoing, or it will mean more than just mere reputations are ruined.<br \/><br \/><span class=\"a-text-italic\"><em>For the Love of a Bennet<\/em>\u00a0<\/span>is a novel length story, currently being posted chapter by chapter on Elizabeth&#8217;s author site.

#000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Dressed to the nines, Fitzwilliam Darcy paced anxiously at the foot of the stairs in the town home of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Gardiner. Darcy had been a participant in London society for a number of years, but tonight marked the first occasion in which he was genuinely interested in his companion for the evening. Cursing himself for all the times he had poked fun at Bingley when they stayed at Netherfield, Darcy could feel a cold sweat forming on the back of his neck and underneath his gloved hands.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Mr. Gardiner, still suspicious the evening was altogether a poor idea, took pity on the poor man as his wife announced Elizabeth would be a few moments longer. He invited the young man into his office for a drink.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;I spoke to my man who handles my shipping. I managed to find three vessels still scheduling wares in their cargo holds for late spring voyages.&#8221; Edward Gardiner lifted piles of paper to find the piece of parchment with the three vessels and their agents named. Folding the paper and handing it to Mr. Darcy, the younger man bowed his head in respect.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;It means a great deal to me, sir, knowing you would take such trouble on my behalf. I will never forget this kindness.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;While I reserve judgment on the future you might enjoy with my niece, there is never a downside to befriending a Darcy.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The two men shared a laugh, interrupted when Mrs. Gardiner poked her head into the office to announce Elizabeth was ready.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Darcy placed his half-finished drink on the table and rushed out of the office to behold his beloved as she descended the stairs. The evening candlelight, mixed with her gown of blush, made her glow with radiance. He saw her hair was pinned in precious curls with tiny pearls woven in between. As he accepted her left hand to assist her down the last few steps, he bestowed a chaste kiss upon her temple.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Miss Bennet, you are far and above the most beautiful woman of my acquaintance. I shall be the most envied patron of the theater this evening.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Well, sir, I do believe you&#8217;ll have competition,&#8221; Miss Bennet responded.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Pardon me? Is there another man you plan to accompany to the theater?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Elizabeth accepted assistance with her shawl and took Mr. Darcy&#8217;s arm as they exited the home to board his carriage. &#8220;No, sir, you said you would be the most envied patron at the theater. As patrons can be both men and women, I believe there may be a few who are envious of me to have you as my companion.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Darcy smiled at the compliment. Coming from any other, he would have thought it a mercenary remark on the status of his wealth. But the fire of desire he could see in Elizabeth&#8217;s eyes matched his own and convinced him she meant merely a mirror compliment of the one he had bestowed upon her. For a woman to compliment the man was an uncommon occurrence, indeed, and Darcy considered himself to be one lucky man.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Despite the evening\u2019s performance being an early preview, and still a few weeks away from the arrival of Parliament, the theater was surprisingly full for the occasion. Darcy guided his lady and her relatives through the mezzanine and to the Darcy family box. As they found their seats, Elizabeth&#8217;s head turned restlessly, taking in the sights around her.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Pardon me for asking, but is this your first visit to the theater?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Elizabeth giggled. &#8220;Of course not, Mr. Darcy, I&#8217;ve been to the theater many times. However, I have not been to the theater in seats as grand as these, and I&#8217;m noticing all eyes are upon me. I believed as one compliment deserved another, it would be kind to graciously inspect those inspecting me with equal diligence.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Darcy laughed at how his Elizabeth dismissed the gawkers and gossip-mongers who in the past had made him self-conscious. The young couple sharing a laugh was the view spied in a pair of opera glasses in the box across from them.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The owner of the opera glasses was none other than the Countess of Matlock, Margaret Fitzwilliam, and she was shocked and surprised to see her nephew, Darcy, at the theater with a woman completely unknown to her and some mysterious couple joining them.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Henry! Henry!&#8221; She jostled the arm of her husband and handed over her opera glasses &#8220;Who is there now with Darcy?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Earl of Matlock relieved his wife of the opera glasses to see his nephew in a rare mood of happiness in companionship with three people he did not recognize. &#8220;My dear, I&#8217;m afraid I am at as much of a loss as you. Shall we scurry over and inquire?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Lady Matlock glanced beneath her at the theater, mostly settled, the show to begin at any moment. &#8220;No. We shall wait until intermission. Why did he not tell us he was coming to the theater tonight?&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Henry Fitzwilliam groaned. He enjoyed this particular play of Shakespeare&#8217;s, but he knew he was to enjoy the entire first act with nothing but running commentary on his nephew Darcy and his mysterious guests across the theater.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Elizabeth was thankful she was quite familiar with the play, for she found herself less inclined to watch the actors on stage and more inclined to steal furtive glances at the handsome man by her side. She had even been so bold as to drop her program and brush her hand against his when she reached to pick it up. She watched most carefully for any reaction when she did so, but Mr. Darcy remained seated with perfect posture and an expression of indifference.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Her cheeks burning red in embarrassment, thankful the theater was dark, she worried about her forwardness until a moment later she felt a similar brush against her hand. Turning her head to gaze at Mr. Darcy, she saw the corner of his mouth twitch slightly in the manner she&#8217;d seen when she was abed at Netherfield. For the rest of the first act, the two engaged in a fun game of finding inconspicuous ways to touch hands, thinking the rest of the theater was ignorant of their activities.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Halfway through the garden scene where Beatrice is misled into thinking that Benedick has feelings for her, Mrs. Gardiner leaned forward and whispered into Elizabeth&#8217;s ear.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Lizzie, I understand your excitement for the evening, but I wonder if you might resist touching Mr. Darcy&#8217;s hands so often? Each time you do so, your uncle squeezes mine quite angrily.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Thoroughly ashamed, Elizabeth sat straighter in her chair and did not reach or brush against Mr. Darcy&#8217;s hand again. When the house lights came up for intermission, Mr. Gardiner offered to fetch refreshments for the box. Darcy offered to go along, but Mr. Gardiner was adamant he remain in the box with the ladies.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">After Mr. Gardiner vacated the box, Elizabeth and Darcy barely had time to begin a conversation with Mrs. Gardiner before they were interrupted by Darcy&#8217;s relatives.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Darcy, my boy, you didn&#8217;t tell your aunt and me you were attending the theater this evening,&#8221; The Earl of Matlock boomed in a voice loud enough for others to hear.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Darcy stood to greet both of his relatives. &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry, Uncle. From now on I&#8217;ll be sure to submit my full social calendar to your staff,&#8221; Darcy said dryly. &#8220;Allow me to introduce my friends. The Earl of Matlock and Countess of Matlock, please meet Mrs. Edward Gardiner of London and her niece, Miss Elizabeth Bennet of Hertfordshire.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Mrs. Gardiner, Miss Bennet, it&#8217;s a pleasure to meet you. I can&#8217;t recall my nephew ever mentioning an acquaintance . . .&#8221; Lady Matlock trailed off expecting an explanation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Pardon me, your ladyship, but your nephew&#8217;s acquaintance with me is of a peculiar nature,&#8221; Elizabeth said with a minxish smile towards Darcy.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">His aunt and uncle exchanged looks and then nodded. Darcy meanwhile inwardly groaned. He feared Elizabeth inadvertently gave his relatives the same wrong impression that she had previously held of him. Hastily, the Matlocks made their exit. &#8220;We&#8217;re sorry to have bothered you, Nephew. We had best be getting to back to our own box. We&#8217;ll expect you tomorrow for luncheon, Darcy?&#8221; The request by Lady Matlock was hardly an offer and more of a command.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Darcy knew a dismissal for what it was, but he saw no benefit to including his relatives into his private life. &#8220;No, milady. I believe I have a previous engagement. You understand.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Earl took a moment to stare Elizabeth up and down, admitting to himself his nephew did have fine taste where it came to women. Still, nasty business to be taking a mistress before one was even married. To include her aunt and uncle in the business, well that was just unheard of!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;When your calendar is open, be sure to call.&#8221; The Earl and Countess of Matlock left just as abruptly as they had arrived, and Darcy let out a huge sigh as he sat down next to Elizabeth.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">His shoulders hunched, Elizabeth worried she had done something wrong.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Fitzwilliam,&#8221; she whispered, her first time using his Christian name. &#8220;I only meant to say our acquaintance was over an accident with a horse.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Without caring about Mrs. Gardiner behind him, or who might see in the audience and other boxes, Darcy grasped Elizabeth&#8217;s hand and held it in both of his own. Gazing into her eyes just as the last call was made and the play was about to begin again, he spoke to her with a very clear voice.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Miss Elizabeth, any relative of mine that does not instantly value you for the joy you bring me is acting a complete fool. This is my fault. I had not discussed our acquaintance with any of my family since I&#8217;ve returned to London. I am a private person by nature and I do not lightly include others in my affairs.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">&#8220;Well, sir, I hope you are reconciling yourself to including me in your affairs.&#8221; She offered him a smile, which he returned as Mr. Gardiner arrived with refreshments for the entire box.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: Optima;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For the rest of the play, Elizabeth brazenly rested her hand against Darcy&#8217;s and when Mr. Gardiner tried to motion to Mrs. Gardiner, she hoarsely whispered &#8220;Oh, Edward, just look away.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-vwgeihj elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"vwgeihj\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>You&#8217;ve been reading <em>By Consequence of Marriage<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-hicuziy elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"hicuziy\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;gradient&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-mwdsbpf\" data-id=\"mwdsbpf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-xwpycdc elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"xwpycdc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elizabethannwest.com\/author\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/master-1-n3vluwq9bbualhuwipkn6c03acqykn9lxakfcxaahg.jpg\" title=\"master 1\" alt=\"master 1\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-tgyeejl elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"tgyeejl\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><i>By Consequence of Marriage, Book 1 of the Moralities of Marriage<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">a Pride and Prejudice novel variation series<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Release Date: December 23, 2014<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">65,000 words, ~334 pages in print.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-uwugwnl\" data-id=\"uwugwnl\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-wurbwit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"wurbwit\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">When his horse throws a shoe, Fitzwilliam Darcy misses rescuing his sister, Georgiana Darcy, from the clutches of George Wickham by only one day.
