The Landlady's Broken Toy

Vernon is drowning in debt, and the mistress of Pemberley has come to collect. When he cannot pay his arrears, Mirabelle offers a dark alternative: total submission. He is no longer a tenant; he is her property, a toy to be broken and remade under her strict gaze. From scrubbing the grand halls on his knees to the sharp sting of the sovereign's discipline, Vernon discovers the agonizing pleasure of absolute obedience. In the hallowed halls of Pemberley, the price of a roof is his very soul. He must learn his place or face the consequences of his failure as he is stripped of his pride and forged into a servant of the estate.
