With a deep sigh, Darcy settled back in the bench of his carriage when the familiar sight of Pemberley’s grounds finally came into sight. It had been a long six weeks that had kept him away from his home and, more importantly, away from his beloved wife. They’d only been married for a few short months and he’d been loathed to be parted from her. At first, it had looked as if the business that had demanded his attention in London could be concluded in just a few days but then things had escalated, requiring more and more of his attention.

At one point, he’d been sorely tempted to write to Elizabeth and ask her to join him, just so that he could spend some time basking in her lively, cheerful presence and talk about more pleasant things than business. Her clever wit would have been a delightful distraction. As would have been her company at night.

In the end, he’d refrained from it, knowing that it would be unfair to her and that she would be better off at Pemberley. Her regular letters had to be enough and she’d proven to be a diligent correspondent, amusing him with little anecdotes and her continuous explorations of Pemberley, its grounds, and the neighborhood. Her observations of their tenants and neighbors had been keen and full of wit, yet never snide. It delighted him to see that she was settling in so well.

Yet, that didn’t stop him from missing her. He was still surprised by just how quickly she’d become the very center of his life and the cornerstone of his soul. His sweet Lizzy. He could scarcely wait to hold her in his arms again.

Darcy tried to contain his impatience while they steadily made their way down the driveway. Not long now and they would pull up in front of Pemberley. At the last stop, he’d been tempted to just get a horse while Roberts, his valet, followed him in the carriage, but, after some consideration, he’d decided against it.

I’m sure Mrs. Darcy will be happy to see you, sir, Roberts suddenly offered.

Darcy glared at the man who’d been in his service since he’d turned eighteen. There wasn’t much Roberts didn’t know about him or his life.
