THE QUEENS DRAWING ROOM
"So are you yet with child Mrs Bridgerton?"
"I am" her reply made the Queen glad, Lady Danbury had hinted of such a thing, and will be overjoyed when her and Violets suspicions will be proved correct.
"Well. Have you any names in mind?" The Queen spoke while her fingers lingered over a pawn.
"Edmund if it is a boy. Agatha if it is a girl" Benedict was over the moon at becoming a father. Penelope was just glad their wedding was so rushed that the dress did not need altering.
"Agatha?" Charlotte smiled warmly.
Pen lowered her voice. She never knew when one of the most powerful ladies in high society would make a sudden appearance "Please do not tell Lady Danbury. I thought it would be a nice surprise"
Charlotte nodded "You have my word"
Pen looked down at the chessboard and moved her Queen.
"Checkmate, your majesty"
"Another game. Mrs Bridgerton?"
"Well you and I know, I do love a good challenge. Your majesty"
