    Summary

    Penelope didn’t usually mind when Colin caressed her stomach. She had spent the last ten years learning to love her body, to fight back against her mother’s harsh words but in this moment, she longed to have the same toned stomach Marina had.

    The same physique all of Colin’s exes had.

    ---

    Penelope comes across an old photo of Colin and Marina one morning and decides to reflect on Colin's past relationships, dwelling on the fact that she's different than them.

    Summary

    “Naturally, you cannot dance another time with the same partner, but you should mingle,” Pen told him. “Well met, Miss Carmody. I look forward to seeing your social triumphs. Remember a lady does not get anything by being too shy to ask.”

    Thus Miss Carmody escaped, none the wiser that she had briefly taken liberties with Lady Whistledown’s husband in front of her. She was truly unprepared for her season. Cressida would have actually eaten her.

    He stood next to Penelope and sighed. “My love, have I made you angry? That was most strange and I would like to go home.”

    “I would like to see that flirt I used to yearn for,” she said. “Do you not remember how to flit lady to lady, dropping a bit of sweetness on each heart like they were not real people at all?”

    Summary

    “Not to worry, my dear,” Varley said, patting Penelope’s hand gently. “This world is a cruel place, specifically for women, but you have people in your court who will protect you. That’s more than most have.”
    Penelope gave Varley a wan smile. She appreciated the sentiment, but was it too much to ask for protection and love?
    -
    When Colin and Pen are forced to marry because of a misunderstanding, each find a reason to feel guilty. Penelope hates the idea that Colin will be forced to marry her out of duty rather than love, while Colin has just learned that the validity of their marriage will hinge on a barbaric centuries old wedding night tradition that Pen has no idea is coming.
