Mafia's Little Pearl
"You're one interesting girl my princess," he said. At the same time, his eyes peered into mine as his hands slipped into my dress tracing my legs up to my upper thigh.
My bare back pressed against the wall feeling the touch of his palm on my skin which sent tingling shivers down my spine and for some reason, I felt a smile creep up on my lips. "And you aren't a Saint either".

Chapter: Hundred: Epilogue Jade's pov. "At this point, I could get a rash from you being all over me, yunno." I groaned and Saint nuzzled into me burying his face in my neck. We were naked under the sheets after we'd gone two rounds that late morning and it didn't look like he was letting me go any moment. I felt his smile beneath me and I couldn't help but smile along. He was a clingy man, surprisingly, something I hadn't noticed before and in as much as I complained, I loved it and wished he'd never stop. "All I'm saying is you going to Betty's house can wait a few days. I want you in my arms today." He mumbled like a child. "You said this last week. And the week before. Even yesterday.""One more day won't hurt, would it? Sweetheart?" He asked and then looked at me smiling. He had cut his hair a bit shorter than it used to be so he didn't go around with his man bun any longer because according to him, he had said he wanted to try new things just like I did and if possible, he would dye his hair also.

Chapter: Ninety nine: The end Jade's pov. Marcel explained to Saint about what had happened and how he had to pretend to work with Matrix in order to kill him. He promised he had never given out any of his information and if at all anything, he had helped save me at the party through Suzy and had called me to warn me the night I thought Suzy died. He said he had come too late and since he was sure that he (Saint) was going to save me, he had saved Suzy. "And the business and route you thrashed?" Saint asked again. I saw he was really trying to understand him because of me and not finish him to the ground. Because the normal Saint would have made Marcel a goner long ago and skipped the whole conversation. I just stood watching the whole thing with my arms together while Saint's men cleared the bodies on the floor. Marcel shook his head. "That wasn't me. That was on Gab. I couldn't put him out to you because we used to be close before you killed him."Saint took a deep breath narrowing his eyes at him. "Gab was

Chapter: Ninety eight: I love you Jade's pov "Starting with him," Matrix said pointing his gun at Marcel. "And later on, her. Why don't we finish what we started years ago huh?" He asked and smirked darkly. "Would it not be nice to die in the same place your family did? At least that's what I considered before coming here."This man was fucking crazy for bringing up Saint's family. I wanted to strangle him slowly. I hated him. "We?" Saint asked leaning forward, calmer than I expected. And from the time when he had acted this calmly after seeing Serena dead, I knew he was plotting something ruthless already. "You started this mess, Mariano. And I'm going to finish it for you. As for him-" He paused and I saw his eyes go to Marcel who stood beside me, watching also. "I wanted him dead already."I stiffened at his words as I saw him raise a gun to Marcel. Matrix smiled at the gesture and I became scared already. He was going to kill Marcel just as he had told CJ he would anytime he found him. He looked at me for a bri

Chapter: Ninety seven: Villa Saint's pov. It was night already as we reached the Villa, I made sure each of my men was positioned in groups at each strategic area. We made sure to surround the house because there was no escaping for him today. No matter how many his men were, we were going to outnumber him. The fight was already looking over before it even started. This whole thing had started from his greed. He was younger than my father but older than me. The Guerra family was known to have the largest cartel in the whole of New York and my father had always done well maintaining it. Mariano's family came close to us but could never really measure, we were always better off, stronger, more power, more money and more connections. Head of the Mariano family used to be loyal to my father before he passed away and barely two years later, Matrix had become greedy for the power, plotted with the Fontana family and some others who were ready to be traitors and had started his little game of wiping off the whole Guer

Chapter: Ninety six: Alcohol Jade's povI lowered my head, pulling my knees to my chest and when the posture seemed painful and impossible because of the hurt, I decided to spread out my legs and lean against the wall. "You've been here since then?" I asked quietly watching her sit up as well. There was silence after my question. I saw her take a deep breath and nod. "Yes." She muttered. "After I texted you that I couldn't meet you, I got taken. You wouldn't know because you didn't bother to text or call me." She accused throwing her face away. I was too hurt and in a lot of pain to start getting angry and trying to pass my point across on why I didn't call her or what I was also going through with Saint. I could have also accused her of not checking up on me as well but I didn't want to, so I let it be. "When did Marcel get taken?" I asked her, switching the topic from being about her. She shook her head, "I can't say exactly. I just saw him randomly after I passed out once from Matrix punching the shit out

Chapter: Ninety five: Matrix 2Jade's pov"You're lying!" I shouted at Matrix. "My mum isn't dead. She's in China right now. You're a fucking liar." The bitterness at the back of my throat increased and my stomach twisted badly making me want to throw up. He laughed. He fucking laughed at me. Then took a sip of his drink and crossed his legs." Is that what old man Greco told you?" He asked, his eyes filled with amusement. "She never made it to the airport, L'amante di Saint. Your mother died in her car. The only thing she succeeded in was keeping you two safe."He said it so casually that I hated him to the core. Here I was hating my mother for abandoning and running off all these years while my uncle abused me, not knowing she was trying to keep is safe and this demon sitting right in front of me ended up killing her after Dad. My eyes pricked with tears as I watched him, my heart beating against my chest like it would explode. In the past more than twelve hours, my heart had felt more pain than it had ever don

Chapter: Twenty one AVENAOn the way out, Marco and I had a little chit-chat. It was just him asking me about my life the past few years, how the other pack had been and if I remembered my memory. It was nice that I was talking to him and he was just as fun as the little I could remember from back then.We turned around the corner and then reached the large grassy field, which was just beside the schoolyard, away from the parking lot, to see that a huge deep box had been positioned at one end of it, filled with sand. The box looked a bit spacious like it could contain at least fifteen people in it. And I wondered why it was here. I guessed everyone was thinking the same thing because they started to murmur amongst themselves. “Why is there so much sand in there?” I said and Sera mumbled something. Just then, I noticed Isaac’s presence and spun around. I locked eyes with him immediately and his eyes were glaring directly at me. I could also feel the annoyance and slight jealousy through our bond. And I

Chapter: Twenty AVENAThe girls filled me in how they usually had pack group games each session during the beginning of the session. Two days were dedicated to each grade and they usually started with the higher grades - us.The games were crafted based on the standards and difficulties of that particular grade and helped evaluate different sections of each pack, such as skills, agility, intelligence, etc.By the end of the games, each scores were added to the pack project that was usually done later on in the semester. It was... all interesting to me per say. We never had this at my old school so it piqued my interest immediately.I was also curious to know if my shifting was still running wild and unable to control and if, perchance, finding my mate had affected it in a positive light. Or if at all, I was a bit close to even figuring out my unique abilities. "I'm pretty sure the Silvermoon and Mystic pack are going to go neck and neck this year, again, especially if there are combat games include

Chapter: Nineteen ISAAC“It’s not worth three weeks suspension, Isaac Langston.” Principal Taurus said. She had her hands folded, leaning back into her seat and pouring her unwavering gaze at me through her glasses. She was stern in everything she did, that I knew. And her rigid personality showcased itself in everything in her life. From how she dressed up to how she ran the school and in the little way of how she arranged her desk, always ensuring that her desk name plate bore, ‘PRINCIPAL TAURUS’ boldly written in the fine print was sat at the edge of the finely polished desk, in the exact same line and place. Her office space itself was the same as her, a dark shade of depressing blue and a historian wall clock, over her mini library that couldn't wait to announce what hour it was at the moment with a tic-tok sound. Her only flaw had to be that her sternness and principled nature had not rubbed off on her daughter because everyone in school and the UPC if I was not mistaken, was aware that her dau

Chapter: Eighteen AVENA "I mean f*ck her. She's lame, to be honest." Clay grumbled as he poured out some cereal into his plate the next morning. "You need to beat her a*s someday." "Watch your words, cuss lord." Nell scolded from beside him, her voice harbouring a sharpness in it. She gave him a look and took the cereal box from his grasp. Asher gave a low chuckle from his seat in front of me before dragging his steaming cup of coffee to his mouth and taking a sip. "What?! She's eighteen now. She knows these things." Clay retorted, his voice raising in defence and gaining an eye roll from Nell. He shook his head sighing, before going to the fridge to get a new milk carton for his cereal. I was seated by the table for breakfast, dressed in a fitted yellow pastel-coloured flowery patterned top and some loose baby blue jeans with casual sneakers. My hair was in a slick back ponytail which I had had Nell and Aunt Mona design with baby blue hair pins. My cherry-flavoured lip gloss was laid beside

Chapter: Seventeen AVENA"What's he going to do when he gets there?" I asked Nell as we trudged towards the carNell shook her head, her lips pressed in a thin worried line for a brief second, "One thing about Alpha Gray is he's unpredictable to a fault. Even he wouldn't know what he'd do there."That was quite surprising. Back when we had arrived and had gone to the Silvermoon pack to the Alpha's meeting, I had pictured Uncle Gray to be like the kind of man who was calculated from how he talked to us and who didn't go head in first hoping for future actions to lead the way. But It wasn't as if I had known Uncle Gray all my life.. I mean, I didn't grow up with him, so there was nothing I could say I indeed knew about him. But hearing Nell describe him like this now made me kind of fear him a bit.I looked to see Isaac's Jaws locked. His gaze was fixed on the ground now, focusing like there was some kind of mystery he was seeing that we couldn't see. I knew he obviously had a lot going on in his head. A

Chapter: Sixteen AVENAThe run in the woods was refreshing and I could feel both me and Sage feeling better. I didn't know how long I'd been running but I knew since the sun was already setting, it had been a while. I came to a halt under one of the trees the setting sun had cast its orange glow on and plopped down under the tree like a sack of stones. I thought to myself how I needed to do this frequently as the familiar sensation of me shifting back to human form hit me. I enjoyed the cold evening breeze on my naked body as I hurdled up, dragging my knees to myself and letting out a huge force of air from my mouth. Thankfully, Sage was behaving at the moment which had made it easy for me to shift back. The feeling was peaceful and it made me feel warm and quiet inside for once. The sound of the birds chirping loudly was soothing, and I closed my eyes, enjoying their little song. Just immediately, I heard rustling in front of me and as I opened my eyes, a bunch of clothes were thrown into my face

Lilith Addiction(A mafia book)
He closed the gap between us and his hand travelled to my waist, pulling me closer to himself. His cologne filled my nostrils and he cupped my face in his hand gently. The look in his eyes whenever he looked at me always seemed like he was watching something so ethereal and now wasn't any different.
I was supposed to hate him, to not be able to stand him. But why was I letting him do this? And why did I like it too? Love it even?
He smirked at me, leaning down with our lips almost touching, his minty breath fanning my face. "I'm fucking addicted and obsessed with you if you haven't noticed." He paused as he studied me while I took a deep breath. "Are you sure you can't stand me?" He asked. "Or are we going to keep on lying to ourselves, babydoll?"

Chapter: Chapter 50VITTORIAA wave of emotion washed over me, and I stared at him, the intense moment we had just shared still lingering between us. He had told me this before, and here he was, uttering the same words again. I didn’t think I had openly ever admitted it to myself or to him either but I actually didn’t despise him any longer. If anything, I had been sharing passionate moments with him more, allowing him to be clingy around me and more, the guilt I felt towards Isabelle had almost disappeared. I was still there because I still had to find who had caused her to leave this world, but I was almost invisible in Roman’s presence because I was slowly learning not to channel my anger toward him. It was like I was finally putting myself first over everything, over the whole guilt and over being angry and resenting him just because of his last name.His eyes watched me passionately and softly as he held me close, making my heart ache with tenderness which I didn’t know I had for him this much.

Chapter: Chapter 49~VITTORIA~"Tiziano is awake?" I asked, looking at Roman, who seemed to have his attention on me already, his face filled with surprise as well. "Yes," Uncle Quinto replied. "Woke up this morning and he's doing fairly well now.""That's good news I guess," I said to him, watching Roman beckon on me to come back to the bed to stay with him. And I obeyed. "I'll still have to sort things out here, though, before I come back. You know that Right, Uncle Quinto?" "Yes dear, yes. The meeting is still holding with the chemists. I laid them off for a bit." Uncle Quinto replied. Roman pulled me close to him and kissed my cheeks while I was still on the phone, and I pouted, shoving him away while biting back a smile. "Ouch, wifey. That hurts." He said clutching his chest. "Both physically and emotionally."He pulled me closer again, spreading his legs on the bed and putting me in between his thighs. He was in a fresh set of loose grey pants that I had changed him into when we arrived after

Chapter: chapter 48~VITTORIA ~ "Roman, are you awake," I said, dropping the water immediately and going over to him. His nose wrinkled as he pressed his lips in a fine line. He was obviously still in pain while trying to find his balance and a position that wouldn't hurt him as he sat. Cleto and North wore worried expressions as they stopped right beside the bed, staring at him and Nicola shut the door behind them quietly. "Roman.. How do you feel?" I asked him again. He gave me a little smile, "I'm fine, babydoll. Never been better." He turned to face North and a glare replaced the smile which he had. North shifted uncomfortably on his feet and rubbed his neck awkwardly, "Uh--miss Vittoria called. I couldn't sit at home knowing you were in an accident." "Get the fu*k out of here," Roman ordered, his voice still raspy from sleep all while being commanding at the same time. My mind went back to the time when we were at their house and they were in an argument. It had just dawned on me that they h

Chapter: Chapter 47~VITTORIA~I looked over to the direction he shot at and saw two men fall to the ground beside our car."I I saved you again wifey," Roman told me and I turned to him, seeing his face turning paler by the second. "Told you you didn't need to worry when you're with me."I heard onto him tighter as he started to let go of his weight slowly on me, "I think you're about to pass out again."He gave me a wide grin. "I'd be pleased to do so in your arms, you know?""Could you be serious for once Roman?" I asked eyeing him then scanning the area to be sure we were finally clear. "You need to be quiet now or you'll loose more blood." I said as I helped him and we walked to one of the cars which was upside down now, with broken windows and inflated tyres. He settled down, dropping the gun beside him and groaned, shutting his eyes.I moved his hair away from his face and cupped his face in my hands. "Roman, you'll need to keep your eyes open and stay with me right now."He nodded, opening them a

Chapter: Chapter 46~ VITTORIA ~"Shit," I said turning to look at Roman. He held my hand immediately and I saw him take out a gun with his other hand."It's going to be okay. I'm not letting anything happen to you." He assured me and I could see it in his eyes that he meant what he said which made me trust him more. Our car sped up while Roman and Nicola started to shoot at where the car which was attacking was.The whole thing was becoming more fierce and the ride was becoming bumpy. In less than 2 minutes, the car behind us which had Roman and Uncle Quinto's men crashed into a pole making a halt. "Don't stop driving, Gio!" Roman commanded. "Vittoria babydoll, are you okay?" He asked scanning from my hair down to my body and I nodded swiftly. I hadn't noticed how tight I had clutched to him or the reason why I had because I mean I was Vittoria, the Lilith, not a girl who couldn't take care of herself. But here I was anyway, acting like I hadn't earned that nickname myself. Two more of our cars fill

Chapter: Chapter 45~VITTORIA ~ I woke up in Roman's bed, again. This was something I was not going to get used to anytime soon. We had not addressed what had happened at Simone's house a few days ago and he didn't look like he was going to talk about it so I just kind of let it be. The day after that, he had come back acting like his usual self, flirty and annoying. He had even gotten me a couple of gifts while coming back home and I thought that was sweet of him. Yesterday evening, he had met me in the kitchen, making coffee which I had planned to use to keep me awake while I worked. And somehow we had started flirting and the flirting had turned into kissing him and now I was awake the next day in his bed. How I had just given in to him made me realize how much I had missed him from the last intimate night we shared and I found myself this morning wanting more of him even. He was snoring softly behind me as he moved a little, I turned around gently to face him. He had his arm on me and in his slee
