    Summary

    “Well, I heard in town that you were looking for some help digging a well. And I thought I might provide my services.”

    Penelope stared at him. “Now why on God’s green earth would you want to do that?” she asked, more bluntly than was perhaps proper for a young lady. “We can’t pay you.” Their father had left them with almost nothing, save this land and the house they were standing on. It was a pretty nice house - better than some of the others in the area - but life was hard.

    He shook his head and turned his hat over in his hands. “No, I didn’t expect you could. I hoped you might instead pay me in kind.”

    Penelope’s cheeks flushed red and she looked down, her hands smoothing the faded yellow cotton of her day dress. She didn’t suppose he meant what it sounded like he meant, being a gentleman and all, but the idea of Colin Bridgerton taking that sort of payment from her made her cheeks hot.

    Summary

    I'm Making Her A Mama by KatofKanals
    Recorded by DragonessAudio

    Penelope Featherington may have only just turned 32 years old, but she’s come to a very important decision in her life. She’s ready to become a mother. She’s got a career that she’s passionate about and is completely financially independent and secure. All that’s missing is the man, but she’s done waiting on love. It’s time for Penelope to take matters into her own hands and do what she’s always done in her life—make her own dreams come true.

    Colin Bridgerton, one of her best friends, is entering a bit of a hiatus from his jet-setting career as a travel photographer. He’ll be permanently in place in London for the foreseeable future while, at 35 years old, he tries to figure out what he wants to do with his life. While his intention in finally sitting still for a while had been to work out what his professional goals are going forward, Colin’s quickly becoming fixated on a very different kind of aspiration for himself.

    Or, the one where Penelope and Colin decide to make a baby “as friends.”

    Summary

    Beatrice Basset is holding onto Penelope’s finger with her whole tiny hand.

    Penelope’s expression is full of a type of longing so potent, that it makes a warmth flush over Colin’s whole body.

    Children. His Pen wants children. The thought makes Colin feel rather dizzy.

    Summary

    Four months after Colin and Penelope’s three year relationship came to a very icy end, the holiday in Greece that had been booked prior, has finally come around.

    Not wanting to dampen the mood on Benedict and Sophie’s engagement, Colin and Penelope decide to pretend they’re still very much in love for the three weeks they’re stuck abroad.

    With no one apart from Eloise in the know, the pair will have to face some feelings, obstacles and situations they never thought they would have to when they broke up all those weeks before.

    Summary

    “We’re friends. I’m happy to do you a favour.”

    She really does mean it. There is nothing Penelope wouldn’t do for Colin Bridgerton.

    But then he raises his eyebrows, clears his throat, and says, “I was wondering if you might consider letting me fuck you and pretend that I am trying to get you pregnant.” He pauses, pondering before he adds: “Please.”

    ---

    Or, after a series of increasingly unhinged sex dreams, Colin asks Penelope if he can roleplay getting her pregnant. Platonically, of course. That should get it out of his system.
