Summary
The day Penelope finally accepted that she was a beta was crushing. She was a romantic at heart and longed for the unwavering connection an alpha had with their omega. She shouldn’t have been surprised, the chance of her presenting as anything else was about as near zero as it could get. Unheard of in the medical community, almost disproven by science.
She gave herself the night to mourn, to accept that any love story she had would pale in comparison to the ones she yearned for.
Her only consolation was that Colin Bridgerton was a beta too.
-
As betas, Penelope and Colin are used to their relationship being misunderstood by his family but an unexpected heat rippling through the omegas at Aubrey Hall pushes Colin's insecurities to the forefront.

Summary
Penelope wants to blame everyone else. Edwina, for hyping her up. The Bridgertons, for treating her like a real in-law when she was just a stand in. Taylor Swift, for making her look for clues that were probably never there.
Still, Penelope soldiers on. She traces her lips with her favourite liner before throwing on a red lipstick in a vain attempt to feel strong.
Fake it ‘till you make it. That’s what Portia taught her, maybe the only useful thing Porta ever taught her.

Summary
It’s clear to Colin and everyone around them that George still has feelings for Marina but it’s unrequited. Marina promised Colin it is unrequited, murmuring that she just feels bad that George is unable to move past his first love.

Colin throws back the last of his drink.
And Penelope moved on from him.

The perfect place to start is by fixing his friendship with his former best friend, Penelope Featherington, who finds herself in desperate need of a flatmate.

“I, um…,” Bella begins before shrugging helplessly. “Guess my favourite Julia Roberts movie.”

“I knew it had to be you,” Jacob says, almost in a whisper, his voice reverent.
Bella furrows her brows.
“What?” She asks softly, her mind racing.
Jacob’s hands drift to her waist as he brings himself to his full height, towering over her. His eyes don’t waiver from hers and Bella can’t help herself but to reach up and cup his face.
“It’s you,” Jacob says simply as he practically bends his body in half to press his forehead against Bella’s.

Summary
It’s the rare occasion where Edward lets his tongue delve into Bella’s mouth as he kisses her, leaving her frozen in shock or perhaps displeasure.
Edward is disappointed when all he tastes is the mint toothpaste Bella clearly used as a vain attempt to keep play acting the idea that her affair is some sort of secret.
With a sigh, Edward pulls back and looks out the windshield. Jacob is leveling him with a murderous glare but Edward merely cocks an eyebrow.
After all, Jacob is the one fucking Edward’s fiancé. Surely it’s not too much to ask for a taste?
-
Edward can't even find it in himself to mind that Bella is cheating on him. Not when he can read Jacob's mind.
