The morning sun poured over London in a wash of pale gold as the Bridgerton party made its way through the lively streets. Benedict moved with a tall, dignified ease, his posture drawing admiring looks from those they passed. He offered polite, transient nods to the ladies who called out greetings, his attention entirely unmoved by their attempts to engage him. His gaze, however, slid past the social pageantry, settling with quiet focus on a particular storefront. He had engineered this outing not from duty, but from desire: a chance to see you again, the enchanting florist whose presence had taken quiet hold of his heart.
