    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

    “Jesus, that was a close one,” Penelope half-whispers, laughing and tugging at her dress to make sure it’s all where it’s supposed to be. “I almost crushed you!”

    Colin laughs in agreement, but he thinks it would have felt somewhere between heavenly and phenomenal if she’d fallen on his lap. He thinks her tits pressed under his chin would have been perfectly fine--lovely, in fact. He thinks it’s criminal that he can’t currently recall what her skin feels like, just what the warmth of her felt like through several layers of cotton.

    He thinks he would have opened his eyes to find her already looking at him like he was the most interesting man in the world. He thinks he probably would have done something objectively crazy and kissed her if she’d fallen on his lap.

    5 times Colin and Penelope touch innocently, and 1 time it's not innocent at all.

    Summary

    It's not the first time Penelope has seen a cock before. She's nineteen years old; she has, in fact, touched them (well, one).

    But looking at a cock has never made her feel like this before. Kind of like she is dissolving, melting into her mattress, like all the bits that make her Penelope have disintegrated and now she's just this liquid, a puddle spilling across her bedroom floor. She feels sort of golden, the laptop light smearing across her vision until everything turns sparkling and bright, the darkness banished. She muffles a sigh into her pillow and lets her body float into the gold.

    He's big. Even soft, his cock lolls heavily against his thigh, his balls nestled below and the dark trail of his belly hair melding into his pubes. Penelope's hands curl and uncurl in her duvet as she imagines how velvety he would feel under her fingers, her lips rubbing together as she imagines holding him in her mouth. There's something about the softness that is making her feel extra nice — none of the urgency or performance of a hard dick. It feels sort of… gentle. Intimate. She wants to cradle him soft and rub her thumb over the silk.
