Summary
"Everyone has their unrequited love story, yeah? My best friend, she had a brother. Well, she had four brothers, but there was one in particular. He was like the sun… and I—I was constantly pulled into his orbit."
It was a throwaway line in a throwaway interview that nobody was meant to read.
A story about missed connections and growing older and what happens when you finally stop running.

Summary
The Ton was a mystical place. The people were not humans. They looked like humans and, to some extent, lived like humans, but they had something more.
The people of the Ton had a greater awareness of their souls. Because of this, they could do many things that normal human beings could not. They could recognize their soulmate and were, in fact, younger-looking, lived longer, and were said to be better at almost everything than normal humans. Yet they blended in and lived alongside humans while humans remained completely unaware of them.Penelope Featherington had spent most of her life waiting.
Waiting for her soulmate. Waiting to become someone worth noticing. Waiting for a future she had once been certain would belong to Colin Bridgerton.
At sixteen, she had believed destiny itself had made her for him. At eighteen, destiny had disagreed. Ten years later, she had long since accepted that Colin was not hers, that soulmates were not guaranteed, and that some people simply spent their lives alone.
It was a painful lesson.
But she had survived it.

Summary
“How could you?” Colin asks, voice faint, but slowly growing in volume as he continues. “You…everything you have written, all the lives you have destroyed…How could you?”
“I never meant to…” Penelope says, trialing off. She is shaking, her shoulders trembling and eyes filling with tears. “You do not understand, Colin—”
“—of course I do not understand,” He interjects quickly. “What is there to understand, Penelope? You…What you have done…”
or
(Season 2, Episode 8 AU in which it's Colin, not Eloise, who finds out about Penelope's secret identity.)

Summary
It's Penelope Featherington's first season out. She was hoping to remain mostly ignored by the ton, not quite ready for the marriage mart, despite her later than average debut. Only, she doesn't anticipate her beauty and family's prestige to make her this season's diamond. She remains unaware until it's too late, that more than just the gentleman of the ton are watching her every move.
