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
It's maybe not something he should be doing for his friend. It is maybe too much, not normal, but Colin likes how it makes him feel. For two months a year he gets to be a man who has a girl to buy flowers for. Sometimes when the florist says for your girlfriend? he will say yeah, and when they say lucky girl he will say yeah, yeah she is or I'm the lucky one and for a few moments he is another person entirely, a man with a purpose and a life and a warm flat with a pretty girl in it, waiting upside down on the sofa for her peonies with her hair trailing.
Better than the reality, that he is a thirty-two year old loser with no job (which is why he can afford to be loping around the city all day looking for flowers). No job no girlfriend no point.
It is the happiest he is all year.

Summary
"You are not a slave, you are not bound by chains," he says, grabbing the plate from the bed. "You are able to do as you please."
Whatever she wants? She can leave this room? She is not bound here? There will not be guards ordering her where to go? Or someone running after her the moment she steps away?
"There must be more."
"No," Colin shakes his head, placing the dish in the basin. "You will want for nothing here. That is all that is needed of you."
"There—there must be more to this," Penelope insist. "I must know why."
"You are to be my wife."
The one where Penelope Featherington is arranged to marry former Gladiator Colin Bridgerton.
