    Summary

    To an observer, Colin and Penelope were nothing more than frosty acquaintances.

    That did not stop Penelope from lingering in the Bridgerton family wing, however.

    “Took you long enough,” Colin mumbled in Penelope’s ear as he dragged her down the hall towards his room. Penelope could hear her heart pound in her ears as she submitted to him.

    -

    Three years after calling off their engagement, Colin is back in town for the new social season. How much longer can Penelope continue to deny him?

    Summary

    Colin was startled away from his spiralling thoughts when she finally spoke up.

    “Colin,” her whispered voice sliced through his confusion, face still downturned. “Listen to me.”

    He could see her right foot was twitching and her fists were tightening into her bright daydress - as if her body was struggling to contain the entirety of herself. He stepped closer, craning down his neck to try and get a glimpse of her face.

    She looked up then, incensed determination radiating off her.

    “Either you distance yourself completely from Marina,” she pronounced, her eyes hard and her face coloured with a pale red, “or else I will sever all ties with you.”

    OR

    Colin would do just about anything Penelope asked of him.

    Summary

    “Colin?” she called and he pulled himself out of his thoughts, thinking that he really missed the way she said his name.

    “Perhaps we can change that,” he responded.

    An adorable frown formed on her forehead, “Pardon?”

    Colin didn't know where the conversation was heading but spoke anyway. “I could make some introductions. Pen, anyone would be lucky to court you.”

    Penelope's frown deepened, “I- That's totally unnecessary, Colin.”

    He was puzzled, didn't she want to marry? “Why not? You could meet someone and-”

    “There's really no need to go to all this trouble,” she said with a tone of finality.

    “But-”

    “I have a lover, Colin!” she blurted.
