    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

    “This is my fault,” the Viscount said. “I should have taken him to a brothel long ago.” He gulped down his drink. “I should take him now.”

    “What use would it have?” Benedict asked. “He’s already engaged, he’d reject the offer in favour of his beloved fiancé.”

    “Beloved?” Anthony laughed humorlessly. “He’s too green. I bet you all it’d take for him to abandon this nonsense is to find a willing girl to wet his wick with.”

    “What does that mean?” Penelope asked. She did not mean to, but the prospect of Colin saving himself from entrapment prompted her to blurt the question out.
     

    After accidently hearing a rather crude declaration from Colin's older brother, Penelope decides to put the put it to the test.

    Summary

    “Read it again Pen,” Colin said softly.

    She looked back at him, eyes wide and blinking, biting her lower lip, drawing in his attention.

    Until today, not an impure thought had passed through his mind of Penelope. He suddenly felt like the wind was knocked out of him. His eyes snapped up to hers, her blue eyes wide and blinking rapidly. He wasn’t sure what to say. It felt like the air had changed around them. All he could think about was her in that moment. Touching her hair, caressing her cheeks, kissing her lips.

    He took a deep breath. He could not make sense of the impulses he was having, “please, read it again.”

    She swallowed, turned back to the page, and started reading it again. He listened to her sweet voice recite the words of Byron. Did she pick this poem on purpose? ‘How could she’ he reasoned, ‘she’s never seen this book, how would she know’. He was so lost in thought; he didn’t realize she had finished. He wasn’t ready for her to stop reading, what was the last part? She looked over at him again. Had she moved closer to him? Or was he leaning into her?

    “Again,” He said, wondering if she could hear him as it came out almost as a whisper.
