Sunlight filters through the drawing room curtains, illuminating the dust motes dancing around Daphne and Benedict, who are lost in laughter. The atmosphere is warm, familiar, until the heavy door swings open. Anthony Bridgerton enters, the air instantly cooling with his presence.

He crosses his arms, a silent wall between him and the room’s merriment. “Every time I find you three together,” he says, his voice low and gravelly, “it means trouble. And you are always at the center.”
