    Summary

    Bridgerton Holdings is haemorrhaging stock after an incriminating Lady Whistledown leak. To secure political protection, Anthony is brokering Daphne to a politician's son like a depreciating corporate asset. Meanwhile, tech billionaire Simon Basset is facing a hostile takeover from a board tired of his scorched-earth nihilism.

    The solution is simple: a highly publicized, entirely fake relationship. Simon gets the pristine Bridgerton halo to pacify his investors, and Daphne gets the untouchability of being on the arm of the most dangerous CEO in London. It's the perfect mutual defence pact against the Whistledown-obsessed public. The only way to sell the lie is to make it look real. And soon, they realize they’re both dangerously good at lying to the cameras -- and even better at lying to themselves.

    Summary

    The first ball hosted at Clyvedon for many years had been an unmitigated success. The Duchess and Duke's private activities afterwards were even better.

    Summary

    "Running her hand across the smooth silk of her pale green dress, she tries not to audibly sigh at the flat surface beneath her palm. Shades of disappointment casting shadows over an otherwise cheerful morning."

    Or, a smutty one-shot set between the ball in episode 8 and the birth of their first child.

    Summary

    And so you have adapted.

    Or at least you tried. For there is a small, yearning part of you that you just cannot get rid of. A part that lives and breathes as your darkness does, that moves through your body and no matter how often you catch it, it stubbornly resurfaces just a short while later, in another part of you. Besting you, besting the darkness, fluttering lightly and softly through you like a butterfly.

    You hate that part.
