The Despised<br />

Daughter-in-Law<br />

q<br />

Between daughter-in-law and mo<strong>the</strong>r-in-law,<br />

<strong>the</strong> devil is at work.<br />

—Italian proverb<br />

Though Camillo was bored by his work, he had never been<br />

bored by beautiful women. And indeed, <strong>the</strong> dashing cardinal<br />

nephew, with his flashing black eyes, glistening black curls,<br />

and swirling red robes, was <strong>the</strong> object <strong>of</strong> fascination <strong>of</strong> numerous noble<br />

Roman ladies. But Camillo, who flirted with many, was particularly<br />

fascinated by one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m, Olimpia Aldobrandini, <strong>the</strong> princess <strong>of</strong> Rossano,<br />

who was, unfortunately, <strong>the</strong> wife <strong>of</strong> Prince Paolo Borghese.<br />

A slender woman who took up a great deal <strong>of</strong> space in a room, <strong>the</strong><br />

princess <strong>of</strong> Rossano was <strong>the</strong> spectacular amalgamation <strong>of</strong> sparkling<br />

wit, exquisite breeding, a peerless papal bloodline, and radiant beauty.<br />

She had a gloriously rich mane <strong>of</strong> chestnut curls, strong black brows,<br />

and sparkling dark eyes. Her complexion was peaches and cream,<br />

her nose straight, her lips full and wavy. Her figure was perfect, and<br />

her taste in clothing exquisite. When <strong>the</strong> princess <strong>of</strong> Rossano entered<br />

a ga<strong>the</strong>ring, jaws dropped—even those <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> oldest, most chaste cardinals.<br />

In addition to being beautiful, she was spirited, bold, and confident,<br />

one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> few women in Rome considered well worth listening to.
