    Summary

    A year ago, Colin was still searching every corner of the earth he could get to for a purpose.

    A year later, in the house across the Square from his childhood home, he has found more purpose than most do in a lifetime.

    He is grateful for all of it. Joyful, disbelieving at his own luck, and endlessly grateful.

    But it is quite a lot to balance, now. He wonders often if he is truly up to the task.

    _____

    This is second in a series of Married Polin stories in which Colin and Penelope navigate what Happily Ever After actually looks like. Just because an initial love story gets a happy ending does not mean everything comes easily. There is work to maintain that HEA. Happy work. Work that is worth it. But still: WORK.

    Summary

    Sir Colin was accustomed to difficult work, feats of physicality. He had climbed hills, built walls, and performed in jousts. He had triumphed in battle, and even saved a maiden or two. He had done everything a good knight should do.

    But he had never climbed a mountain.

    Or, Colin is a knight (but not really), and Penelope is the dragon he's sent to slay.
