Bam’s Castle - Turin, Italy

SHELBY

“Oh my God, I’m so hungover,” Nina complains, glancing at me. “You and Juan shouldn’t have left so early. You missed all the fun.”

“I don’t know about that. I’d venture to say, the reason we left early is so that we could have all the fun,” I reply, causing her younger sister, Mia, to giggle.

“That’s what happens when you can’t handle your liquor,” Mia chastises.

“Wait until you have five children under ten, and then we’ll talk,” Nina replies curtly, stopping short of baring her teeth.

“Give me a break, Nina,” Mia says. “You have not one, but two nannies.”

“That’s simply due to the ages of the children. One nanny cannot care for children of different ages.”

“That’s funny. Most mothers manage to do just fine. You shouldn’t be complaining. What you should be doing is volunteering at my shelter. Seeing what it’s like in the real world. You act like you’re some princess.”

I study my soon-to-be family.

Juan is the oldest of the five. Next in line is Nina and her husband, Louis, who have five girls; brothers, Marco and Mateo, and their respective wives, Julia and Rosa, who each have a boy and a girl; and then his youngest sister, Mia, a former model who is married to a very hot professional footballer named Gabriel, with whom she shares a two-year-old daughter. All four women will be standing up for me, wearing shades of gold and carrying blush floral bouquets.

“Look around you,” Nina says. “We live in castles. We pretty much are royalty.”

I burst out laughing. Because I could not hold it in. Any. Longer.

“What’s so funny?” Nina bellows at me.

“She’s laughing at you because you’re being ridiculous,” Mia says, giving Nina a glare.

I’m not sure what’s going on between these two, but I’m thinking they don’t get along. And if I had to guess, it’s probably because Nina is not nearly as beautiful as Mia—or as sweet.

I don’t reply. I don’t have to because Julia and Rosa each pick a side, adding their two cents and causing a ruckus.

The French hairdresser who was flown in for the occasion twirls me toward the mirror and whispers in my ear, “What do you think, mon chéri?”

I try not to start crying. That’s how beautiful I look. “You’re a genius, Julian. Can I keep you?”

Julian gives me a grin and whispers, “I will leave a card.” He clears his throat and glances toward the still arguing family. “For you alone. Call me anytime.”

The wedding planner escorts all of us into a dressing room where our gowns are hanging on racks, steamed to perfection. The tailor helps me into my wedding dress and then secures the veil to my head.

The whole time, the sisters carry on. Even when Juan’s mother joins us, they don’t stop bickering. Compared to taking care of my addict mother, their petty spats don’t bother me in the least. And, as Juan said last night, I won’t have to spend that much time with them. Plus, he’s the oldest, and based on what he said, he might possibly hold the family purse strings.
