    The Ghost of Aubrey HallChapter 1The feeling of the carriage trundling along the uneven roads had lulled Penelope into a light sleep. She allowed herself to rest as her eyes drifted close and her head laid against the plush walls of the carriage. Even in sleep, she was still acutely aware of the presence of her new husband who was sat opposite her, quietly watching her sleep. The journey from London to Aubrey Hall had been long, but uneventful. Colin had instructed the drivers to push on into nightfall to reach their destination, forgoing an overnight stay at the inn. Colin was keen to get Penelope away from London. Her secret was now out and even though the Queen had indeed accepted Penelope, the ton were still talking. After some discussion with Violet and Benedict, it was agreed that the new couple would quietly retreat to the family estate to get some distance away from gossip and prying eyes.The sun had set some time ago and the carriage was now bathed in darkness, only partially illuminated by a clouded half-moon that dimly lit the sky. The drivers were using oil lamps and as their guide, driving through a thick and foggy mist. Colin recognised the scenery and knew they were close to Aubrey Hall, the Bridgerton’s Country estate. Outside the carriage, a cold drizzle clung to the windows, distorting any view that was possible in the dim moonlight. The London social season was ending, but his mother and siblings had blessedly allowed Colin and Penelope a fortnight as a honeymoon of sorts to use the estate before the rest of the family convened. Colin hoped this time would give them the chance to be alone as newly married couple and regain the time they had lost when they had been at odds recently.Colin watched his wife stir as the carriage became particularly bumpy as they began ascending towards the large estate that was not yet visible. He smiled softly and marvelled at how he had in the past never noticed the way her long eyelashes fanned her face as she slept, or how her ample bosom breathed up and down. Colin clenched his fist, he remembered all too well what they had previously gotten up to in carriages. He was somewhat disappointed she was asleep, but he knew she needed her rest. Penelope groaned and began to stir awake. The sound made Colin close his eyes and shift in his seat, adjusting his breeches. He still could not believe the effect she had on him.“Pen?” Colin said gently, his voice soft but firm over the echoing sound of the horses hooves and jostling of the carriage. He leaned forward and touched her knee, giving it a gentle shake. “Pen, we are almost here.”
Penelope sighed and opened her eyes, looking around, inquisitively. “That was rather quick, Colin.” She smiled, the apples of her cheeks meeting her eyes in the moonlight.“Indeed, time does tend to go fast when you are asleep, my dear.” Colin teased, with an impish grin. Penelope rolled her eyes in response and looked out of the carriage window. “How can you tell? The night is so dark and misty,” she observed. She folded her gloved hands neatly in her lap and turned her head away from the window to face Colin.“I have been watching the road, and I am as familiar with it as my own hand.” He again clenched the fist of the hand he cut all those months ago in his study with Penelope, still feeling a slight tug of the scar that had been left there.Penelope nodded, “I am looking forward to the peace and quiet.” Penelope had always loved visiting Aubrey Hall as a child and into adulthood. Back then she had been invited by Eloise. Now, she realised for the first time she had been invited by Colin. A thrill of excitement stirred in her belly. This time last year she never could have thought this would have been possible. All that had happened now seemed a dream, but the reality was that she was married to Colin. Her childhood best friend and the love of her life and everyone now knew that she was Lady Whistledown. She bit her lip and fidgeted with some lingering anxiety, which Colin sensed immediately.“Is everyone well, Pen?” Colin asked, studying her face. He leaned closer and took her hands in his, as the carriage swayed with the bumps of the winding road. His dark blue eyes roamed over her face, searching for answers.Penelope nodded, “I suppose I am worrying about what we left behind in London,” she said, quietly. Colin tsked and said, “Pay the ton no heed, Pen. We must think of our future now and us moving forward together.” The determination in his eyes implored hers and she smiled. She loved him when he was like this. Optimistic, kind and resolute that everything would work out. She nodded and Colin released her hands and sat back in his seat, satisfied.Aubrey Hall suddenly came into view. The large stone edifice was ivy-covered and stood majestically over a sweeping lawn. Penelope frowned as the house loomed larger and came into clear view. The staff had lit the lamps in the front of the building in preparation for the couple’s arrival, but something felt different and off to Penelope. The house was lovely of course, but today it seemed to loom rather than welcome, it’s large windows like watching eyes. Penelope’s fingertips brushed the frosted glass of the carriage windows as the carriage pulled on to the gravelled drive. The horse hooves crunched nosily as the carriage came to a gradual stop. The air inside the carriage became noticeably colder and Penelope shivered. She pressed her nose against the carriage window and her eyes were drawn inexplicably to an upstairs window, illuminated by candlelight.The wind picked up, rustling the branches of a nearby oak tree and Penelope blinked as a lone figure stared out from the window where she was looking. Penelope startled and jumped backwards. “Colin, did you see…?” Colin was already moving towards her and opening the carriage door.
“See what, Pen?” he asked, as he descended. Penelope looked up once again and there was no longer a figure in the window. “I thought I saw a person in the upstairs window,” she answered, her expression pulled into a frown.“Probably a member of staff, they are waiting for us.” Colin held out his hand. “Are you coming, wife?” He smiled, devilishly. The figure in the window momentarily, forgotten, Penelope smiled and accepted Colin’s hand. “Indeed, husband.”'
