"You know how everyone has their own personal fear?" I said, mindlessly thinking.

We were in Italy now, in the lobby. Everyone was kind of off to their own respective sides. I was talking to my siblings, Jolie and Ria.

They were all looking at me like I had a mental illness, causing me to roll my eyes. "I feel like mine is guilt. Every time I feel guilty I freeze up, I sit there and just take the disrespect."

"Guilt?" Ria asked, cradling her daughter. "What for?"

The rest of them all collectively sighed.

"She's a whore." Alejandro simplified.

I flicked him off as the rest of them snickered since hitting him wasn't an option due to the two-year-old he was holding. "No, I...." I looked around before leaning in. "I slept with Giancarlo."

Ria's eyes widened before she burst into laughter. "Oh that's not..."

Jolie sighed. "If Siara finds out she'll make life a living hell. I don't know about you, but I'm fucking done with her."

My eyes widened, and my mouth opened but Mateo gave me a look and I frowned. "Oh, ok," I said.

Marisol crossed her arms. "I hope she realizes before it's too late. That behavior is weird."

"It's erratic." Ria said. "Uncalled for, to embarrass your friend and your oldest brother. It's disappointing."

"I was waiting for the day they dropped that puta." (Bitch) Mateo scowled.

Alejandro huffed, his hands shoved in his pockets. "As long as her bitch ass don't try that shit with me I'm good. Imma let her know who her elder is real quick."

Jolie and I laughed. "Fucking old ass bitch."

Alejandro narrowed his eyes on me. "The man you fucked is the same age as me."

"Alright, lo siento, lo siento," (I'm sorry.) I shushed him.

After everyone got their rooms we all kind of separated. There is a lot of tension...awkward tension....angry tension–tension in general. I made it a goal to find someone while in Italy so I got dressed in a black lace bra, and a clasp top with a black mini skirt, silver earrings, and red lipstick. I sprayed Dior poison perfume on it, grabbed my black bag, and left my hotel room.

I was now at the hotel bar, looking around. So far, the people coming up to me are fucking idiots who want sex. I'm tired of rolling my eyes.

I was on my second drink, so I was still patient. If I don't find someone here, I'll find someone in a different place. I was about to finish my glass and order another when I yelped at the hot pain on my ass.

"Sorry, my hand slipped."

I groaned, looking at the sleazy disgusting man I was partnered with. "Don't fucking touch me again, muchacho, or I'll break this glass and off your dick."

Antonio chuckled. "I like a feisty woman."

"And I like it when bitches know their place," I snapped, shooing him off with my hand.

He scoffed, grabbing my hand. "No me gusta que me llamen perra." (I don't like being called a bitch.)

I laughed, yanking him off. "Entonces no actúes como una... perra." (Then don't act like one...bitch.) I stood up, getting ready to leave. "I don't have time for low-lives–" I gasped as my head swung back. "Did you just slap me?"

Antonio smirked at me. "I told you I didn't like being called a bitch."

I laughed. "You motherfucking bitch!" I screamed, breaking the wine cup, grabbing a piece of glass, and swiping across his face. "I'm gonna fucking kill you, you fucking–" Someone grabbed me from behind as Antonio backed away, his hand cupping his bleeding face.

"You crazy bitch," Antonio cried. "She fucking cut me."

I smiled. "Ve a llorarle a tu mamá." (go cry to your mom.)

"Enough,"

I was let go and instead of seeing the police, I saw an annoyed-looking Giancarlo and a worried-looking Jolie. I exhaled harshly. "He fucking slapped me."

"Oh my god?!" Jolie grabbed my burning face. "There's a handprint on your cheek!"

"Jolie, take care of her face," Giancarlo said. "I'll speak to Antonio."

My eyes widened in shock. "You're gonna talk to him! Talk?! He–"

"Azura, go take care of yourself, I won't tell you again." Giancarlo glared at me, a glint in his eyes that meant I should probably listen.

Glaring at the smug face of Antonio, I let Jolie lead me to my room. She and I both didn't want Mateo to see me like this.

She sighed, shaking her head. "I'm sorry you had to go through that," Jolie said. "He's disgusting. I told you what he did to Ria and me."

"Yeah, well he slapped my ass as a greeting," I said bitterly as she put ice on my face.

Jolie frowned. "Where did Valerie find these people?" She asked, almost to herself. "It's not right...MC and Valerie just aren't a good couple, they barely hold each other and when they do, Val is uncomfortable."

"MC?"

"Mateo Carbello, so we don't get confused." Jolie clarified.

I nodded, biting my lip. "I guess you're right, but there's no way to tell. Valerie's never brought a boyfriend home so we don't know their norm..."

"No, Azura," Jolie pleaded. "You know Valerie! Look at Mateo and his friends. Aside from just looking suspicious, they are perverts. Lu told me that Diego shoved money into her boobs to try to have a threesome between him, Juan and her!"

I gaped at her. "Are you serious?!"

Jolie nodded. "Out of all of them, Carlos is the only one with some sort of normalness. He doesn't speak–he does–he just chooses not too. He literally just watches his friends, doesn't stop them, doesn't care. He was literally across from you and Antonio and he watched everything go down."

"You're right, something's happening. Valerie can't bring these people into the family."

"I wonder how she managed to convince her papa, my dad would have none of it." Jolie said, applying cream to my face.

"Jolie, Mr. Barnardi is very strict." I said. "She had to have tricked him."

We both sighed...our conversation weighing down on us. "Maybe....maybe Mateo is actually a good person and his friends are just bad people. Maybe we're being rude about Mateo."

"I keep thinking the same thing–but, after this wedding is over, I'm putting Antonio in jail where he belongs."

"I'll be right behind you, girl." Jolie said, shaking her head.
