Summary
Colin's worlds collide when his contessa arrives in London, wanting to meet the infamous Lady Whistledown. The underhanded flirting isn't what discomfits him, however; it's his wife's reaction.
He knows that Penelope isn't a jealous woman, but surely, some measure of possessiveness is healthy?
Is it too much to ask that she feel just as tortured about his entanglements as he did about her almost-engagement to Lord Debling?
Does she not realize what the contessa is doing, or does she not care?
*****
A romcom featuring mopey, golden-retriever Colin, and his cute, unbothered wife.

Summary
A kite-flying event is rife with opportunities for young ladies and gentlemen to get closer, but Colin can’t seem to get Penelope alone long enough to speak with her about the life-altering kiss they shared. He’s out of his element; he can’t stop having inappropriate dreams about her; and watching Lord Debling court her makes him want to stick the pointy end of a quill in his eye.
Set sometime between the library scene and Lord Debling’s stymied proposal. Show canon-compliant. One-shot.
