And for the first time in her life Penelope truly feels like she's alone in the world.

Pretend You're Mine.
Back again by popular demand. I have fixed grammar issues, and adjusted little bits (the story has not changed) Also - bonus extra scene at the end! "Thank you for the dance sweetheart." He broke away and she could still feel his lingered touch on her waist... What was this feeling? What on earth just fucking happened? Penelope Featherington did not fancy Michael Stirling. She couldn't. Could she? Colin's wedding broke her heart, could she find solace in the last place she ever expected? Pre-Warning. This is a Penelope/Michael HEA. - - - - - Updates will come once every few days! I have done Polin, Penthony, now I've decided to try Michael & Penelope. I had always imagined Michael sexy as hell, and well I'm basing him off Mr Grey himself. I hope you enjoy the story, It's just the beginning, I hope you like it. (This is my first of two, my next will focus on Benedict & Penelope (Regency)) Thanks :) xoComplete

They marry but it is a marriage of convenience at first, even though Anthony likes to visit her bedroom at night but the relationship has his considerable ups and downs and the two argue.. a lot. Read Anthony Bridgerton x Y/N if you want. *********************** "Are you denying your husband?", he asks with her clenched teeth, angrily. She doesn't respond but just stares at him defiantly. "Lie down", Anthony demands but Mara shakes her head. "I said.. LIE DOWN", Anthony repeats angrily.. The sentence is out before Mara realises it and it was a foolish thing to say, she would later think. "MAKE ME", she says. "Fine. Challenge ACCEPTED" and he steps towards her hurriedly. P.s. The story is mine but I do NOT own the characters relating Bridgerton. However this is AU with ADDED ORIGINAL CHARACTERS so therefore NOT CANON COMPLIANT. PS2: Picture of "Anthony" is not mine, will credit later. FOR JONATHAN BAILEY who has captured my heart as Viscount Anthony Bridgerton.Complete
