   Summary

   At Penelope's 30th Birthday celebration at Aubrey Hall, some unexpected news throws her for a loop. This causes her to divulge her greatest wish to the man she trusts most, leading to a conversation that ends up changing both of their lives.

   -----------

   “And you are going to start a fire on the carpet with your frantic pacing. What is wrong?”

   There was a plan, she had a plan, exact, nice words that were carefully chosen to save embarrassment if it came to it. Such a pity it was when they were completely abandoned when she looked up and straight into his stormy blue eyes, blurting out exactly the thing that had been swirling around her mind all night.

   “I wish to be a mother, and I wish for you to help me”
