    Summary

    Colin had asked her to take his virginity.

    Not lose it with her, like throwing it in the bottom of the closet with the old school shirts unworn for years, or like a treasured bracelet, adored until it falls off one day never to be seen again. Take. Like it was his to give and hers to claim. Like she could cherish it.

     

    And she’d said yes.

    Summary

    “You are astonishing, Colin.”
    Without a doubt that was the highest compliment Colin ever received. And spoken in the sweetest voice, dripping with awe and admiration… He could not be at fault for feeling so affected. And if his grip on her tightened and his chest puffed out with pride and satisfaction when she thanked him for looking after them, after her, that was no one’s business.

    “I only wish I could thank you, in some way.”

    The third son’s heart raced as Penelope's sweet words washed over him, her innocent gratitude awakening a sudden, fierce willingness to push modesty to the side and accept a reward. In his alcohol-fueled bravado, he found himself thinking of medieval maidens rewarding their gallant knights with tokens of affection.

    As the music faded away, Colin made a split-second decision. He took Penelope's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.

    “If you so insist.”

    --------------

    or, after unmasking Jack Featherington, Colin feels entitled to a little reward, and when Pen's offers it so sweetly... how can he refuse?

    Summary

    Because if her papa wasn’t a baron, she would never be able to live in Mayfair. If she didn’t live in Mayfair, she would have never knocked Colin off of his horse and if she never knocked Colin off his horse, she would have never fallen in love.

    She could have only ever loved Colin. Even if she never met him, she would have never been in love and she loved being in love, even when she hated it. Even when it hurt and it felt like her heart was bleeding out like a spilled ink pot.

    Penelope was made for Colin. Colin was made for the world.

    She feared marriage would not change that.

    -

    After the Butterfly Ball, Penelope is plagued by insecurities. Colin, as the product of a happy marriage, never expected her to feel this way.
