Part II: The Anti-Darcy (written by the request of Michelle)

The Anti-Darcy: the Victorian Literature version of the Anti-Christ, if you will—nothing short of a cad.

The Anti-Darcy can be found in the most unexpected of places, usually with some formal viscid to throw his suitors for a loop. Selfish, narcissistic, leaking with pride, his only amiable quality is reputation, which he compulsively seeks to repair, restore and relinquish, as his true identity must never be revealed.

Do not be afraid, Anti-Darcy’s are scarce; having such superhuman qualities like coldness at any cost, that no proper human could or would attain this. And though I advise the reader not to fear the Anti-Darcy, I will advise to be leery of the being because no bite can delve deeper.

Deceitful, single-minded and thoughtless, a step beyond aloof—character and respect hold no place in this form.

The only downfall is unlike Darcy, the Anti-Darcy is not fictional—not fictional at all…
