As a result she develops her own ties to that part of the world and its people, including the Darcy's of Pemberley.

    Summary

    Darcy knew he was a bit of an exception among his male friends. Most of them had been brought to a brothel or high-end courtesan’s playground to be introduced to the art of sex. But Darcy had missed that particular rite of passage. And now – now he is marrying the love of his life. He does not want to ruin it by being a hungry desperate mess on their first night. So, he does the only thing he can think of: research the hell out of the idea.

He was there long before them and although they had watched every other creature, they shared the water with disappear with time – he still remained. His power was mythic in the truest sense and no less than three hundred and fifty-seven human creatures had lost their ability to think after seeing the Old One. But one day, quite by surprise to even the Horror himself, he decided to live as a human creature. To pull on a human skin and experience one human life. And along the way, he must learn about pride, prejudice, and being a human. He is still not sure if he is ready even though he inadvertently meets his Mate. If only he could convince her of that.
