Summary
The realization strikes him like a lightning bolt, a white-hot and searing shock that splinters through his chest and cracks his heart into pieces. All he can hear is his own rapid pulse in his ears and the agonized howl that rips through through his hindmind.
The box containing the cursed bouquet tumbles to the floor, spilling out its blood-stained petals and wilted blooms, and his knees follow—as if he's being dragged down by the weight of his worst nightmares, which now lie scattered across the carpet.
Or, a tale of what happens when a young Omega is carelessly spurned by her oblivious True Mate.

Summary

Every ex has a story to tell about that oh-so-“platonic” relationship between two best friends.

Summary
The 32-year-old actor Colin Bridgerton is currently filming the next season of the series which made him instantly famous a little over 10 years ago. His early marriage to the then Victoria Secret model Marina Thompson made him even more popular. But since he caught her in bed with a lover a few years ago, they have officially had an open marriage because Marina (12 years older than him) and her lover both were married and have already been secretly photographed by fans months before. That's why they remain in public as a loved-up couple, but they hardly see each other in private (except the sex after joint appearances). Colin distracts himself with various other women, but eventually Marina takes the decision that she won't accept any more flings of his (and especially the blurred photos of him with other women). So, for his fulfilment, she invites someone else into his bed.
Attention: This is 100% a Polin-Happy-Ending, but it’s going to be a long way. (Colin has sex with other too in the first two chapters, but mainly it’s Polin. Read the tags. Will update the tags as we go!)

With his passport seized and nowhere else to go, he can't run from his feelings when he's forced to stay still.

Summary
Something was amiss. Colin could feel it. He wasn't sure what exactly, but he knew that something was wrong. After ending this last social season having saved Pen and her family from their scheming cousin, Colin's spirit should have been flying high, but his lack of correspondence from family and friends alike leave him feeling less than. In an effort to show his appreciation for his loved ones, and perhaps prove some of his worth, he intends to bring home a gift for each of them--something to example how well he knows them. (Which, of course, is not at all a projection of how he wishes to be known himself, thank you very much.) And why shouldn't that include Penelope? After all, it is perfectly normal for a friend to give a gift to another friend. Even those given by an eligible gentleman to an unmarried lady of the Ton. Even gifts such as jewelry...

Summary
✨ Prólogo
“Hay reglas que se escriben con tinta.
Otras, con sangre.
Pero las más peligrosas…
se graban en la piel.”
En el mundo de Colin Bridgerton, el control no era una opción.
Era ley.
Sus días estaban diseñados milimétricamente.
Sus palabras, contadas.
Sus deseos, encadenados a contratos, cláusulas… y silencio.
Hasta que llegó ella.
Penélope Featherington no pidió permiso.
No irrumpió.
Solo fue imposible de ignorar.
No gritó.
No suplicó.
Le bastó una mirada para romperle el equilibrio.
Y él —que despreciaba la debilidad de los sentimientos,
que empuñaba el poder como escudo,
que amaba a distancia para no arder de cerca—
descubrió que hay mujeres que no se conquistan.
Se eligen.
Y que a veces, el deseo más feroz
no es el que estalla…
sino el que se atreve a quedarse. -

Summary
A Colin and Penelope story that follows TV show canon fairly closely at first but soon diverges, and includes some nods, quotes and timeline changes that align with the 'Romancing Mr Bridgerton' novel.
I do not yet know what the chapter count will be, but you can expect a long fic.Penelope Featherington has not written to Colin Bridgerton on his travels after the pain of overhearing him deride her in front of his friends, at her own ball, last season. Nor has she seen or spoken with her ex-best friend Eloise Bridgerton, after Eloise discovered her biggest secret - that she is the mysterious scandal sheet writer, Lady Whistledown!
Penelope tries to move forward after a miserable off-season. Realising she has to rely on herself to enact the change she wants to see in her life, she can't wait for happiness to find her.

Summary
“This is…a bingo board,” Colin said slowly. He enjoyed the colouring—blue and yellow, somewhat complimentary, with black and cursive writing—appreciative of Penelope for taking the time to create such a thing, despite not knowing what it was supposed to represent or make him feel better.
“A sex bingo board,” she corrected, her heart pounding out of her chest in anticipation of his reaction, and by the looks of it, he was utterly confused.
