Mafia's Little Pearl Eighty five: Ice cream
Jade's pov. The box of tissues was almost empty as I grabbed yet another one and blew out my nose in it. Then grabbed one more and dabbed my eyes with it. I sniffed severally, making me almost choke on my breath and I knew one annoying headache was going to come later. "You're the one that suggested to leave, Why are you crying your eyes out," Betty asked gently as she sat beside me, patting my back. "I...I thou... ught maybe h...he would stop me," I sobbed before sniffing. I was at her house now. I had called her to come pick me up after I got dropped off at the bar and I've been crying ever since I got into the car and we arrived at her house."Yeah, that's some shitty behaviour from him for letting you leave." Betty agreed. "But... but I took out my anger a...at him after S...Suzy's text," I told her, wiping my tears with my palm and swallowing hard, feeling the salty taste at the back of my throat. "Yeah, maybe you shouldn't have done that." She agreed also. "But... he ss..
Mafia's Little Pearl Eighty six: Guy in the shadows
Saint's povI slammed my fist on the table in my room and felt my jaws tighten. Fuck it! I was going to get her back! I fucked up by letting her go and I just wanted her to be with me. I wanted her back and I was going to get her. I grabbed my keys and stepped out of my room, slamming the door behind me and at the same time, I saw Alessandro coming back up the staircase. "Ayo Gennaro the man!" Alessandro called out, waving in the air and grinning from ear to ear. I didn't know whatever had made him that happy but I wasn't ready to hear it. And why was he at home and not at Betty's or whatever her name was' house. "Yeah, I'm busy now," I replied, increasing my pace before stopping in front of him. "And what are you doing here?" He stretched, yawning in the process. "She's still indoors. Betty's the only one who has been going in and out of the house. I'm starting to think she might not be there." He shrugged. I shook my head. "I'm sure she is. Who's watching the house now?" "On
Mafia's Little Pearl Eighty seven: Coffee shop
Jade's pov. The girl held his face in her hand as he looked at me while I stood frozen to the ground. "Come on... what're you doing standing there," Betty said coming over to me and then dragged me along with her. I was controlling myself well, trying to not cry at the sight of him not bothering to even walk up to me or anything. I was the one crying out my eyes every day while he had just been having the best time of his life with women. The hurt I felt was turning into anger and I felt stupid for ever even trying and thinking I could break his walls. I saw him look elsewhere while the girl continued to giggle and play with his hair. I glared at him before looking away. Ignoring him was the best thing to do and that was exactly what I was going to do. I changed into my work clothes and got to work immediately. "Of all days, he chose today to turn up," Betty said in a low tone as we stood at the counter waiting for the bartender. "I'm doing my best to ignore him, Betty. And the
Mafia's Little Pearl Eighty eight: Run back
Jade's pov. He sighed in defeat. "You caught me."I laughed a little at his expression and he eyed me, looking away. "Saint sent you, didn't he?" I asked. "Yeah. He told me to look after you," He admitted. "Now he's going to kill me for real for letting you find out."I was surprised and I knew it was quite evident on my face. "He asked you to look after me?" "I mean yeah. He does care for you more than you think." He answered, putting the lollipop back into his mouth. I fell quiet as I thought about it, biting down on my lower lip and feeling the anger towards Saint seep away slowly. Saint had actually asked someone to look after me? Just because I left the house? Then why didn't he call me or send a text? Why didn't he walk up to me at the bar if he cared that much?I shook my head at him. "I doubt he does. I mean..."I trailed off, getting caught up in my own thoughts once more. "Look, Jade, he might be a stuck-up dude at times, he gets jealous easily, he threatens to kill me e
Mafia's Little Pearl Eighty nine: Every emotion
Jade's povWe trooped into the bar, just like every other person and immediately, loud music blasted into our ears. I pulled up my strapless dress to cover my breasts that were shamelessly pumped out. Betty hit my hand as I did it for a second time and eyed me playfully. "Saint should see you that way red one. Why do you think I picked out the dress?" She winked at me and I smiled shyly. She must have seen through me to know I would definitely want to come here and I couldn't blame her though. I was a clown when it came to Saint because it didn't matter what he did, I always found myself thinking of him, wanting to see him and wanting to be with him. No matter how much I told myself I should keep away, I still found my way back. And right now, I wanted to find him and talk to him, talk about everything, tell him how much I missed him and makeup with him. "I don't see him anywhere though," I replied searching the VIP sections for him with my eyes. Betty dragged me to the counter a
Mafia's Little Pearl Ninety: Headlights
Jade's povSaint's eyes locked with mine and the only emotion I could make out from him was shock. And it was only because of the way his eyes widened when he saw me. I hated him at that moment so much I thought my heart would explode and I regretted ever coming to the bar at all that night.Or even crossing paths with him. Lauretta? The crazy woman that was trying to kill me? Was the one he was here, making out with? And how the hell was she even here? I hadn't seen or heard anything about her since the night of our vacation and all of a sudden she popped into the world again. Maybe I was right all along. He still loved her She was his first love and I wasn't going to be surprised if he still loved the shit out of her. The tears were coming and my vision was starting to be blurry. I was going crazy standing there and the more I saw his face, the more I hated him. I heard her giggle loudly making me shoot Saint a hateful glare and turn abruptly to leave, shutting the door behind
Mafia's Little Pearl Ninety one: Losing my mind
Saint's pov. I was losing my mind by the day and I knew it. I missed Jade madly and I could not deny it any longer or deny the unquenchable feelings I had for her. I craved her, I wanted her in my arms and I needed her to never be apart from me. Every time I thought about how I had lied when I told her I didn't care or need her and saw the hurt that was filled in her eyes, I wanted to hit myself so hard and drill multiple holes in my body until I bled to death. It was almost too much for even me to bear and I could swear on multiple occasions, I had thought about going to pick her up and taking her away from all this mess and just being together with her. I had hurt her, that was the undeniable truth. And then I had let some random ass girl sit and play with my face and hair, trying to get my attention which had left me irritated instead and just when I had had enough and was about to get the hell out of there, she had unexpectedly walked into the bar and seen that as well. I was s
Mafia's Little Pearl Ninety two: Tonight
Saint's PovThe tears I saw in her eyes as she looked at me in hatred made me risk yanking Lauretta off my thighs and not caring if I ended up dying from the cut on my neck. But the risk was a deadly one because I wouldn't survive if I dared. Lauretta was undeniably good with knives. Her only positive trait if I may add. I heard Lauretta giggle and grind herself a little more as she turned and locked eyes with Jade. She was making sure Jade thought we were doing whatever it looked like we were doing. I took that opportunity of her distraction to stretch my hands to the gun and grab it lightly, feeling her hand a bit loose on my neck. But that still didn't stop the pain that was springing out from there which made me know the knife had cut me a little. Jade turned around and hurried out, banging the door behind her just as I corked the gun in my hand, putting it to Lauretta's head. I called out her name, determined to end Lauretta and run after her immediately. Lauretta turned to

Mafia's Little Pearl 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. Hi
Mafia's Little Pearl 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
Mafia's Little Pearl 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
Mafia's Little Pearl 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
Mafia's Little Pearl 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
Mafia's Little Pearl Ninety five: Matrix 2
Jade'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
Mafia's Little Pearl Ninety four: Matrix
Jade's pov At this rate, I should seriously start getting awards for every time I get kidnapped, or become unconscious or land in the hands of some people - or the same people- that want me dead. My head hurt a lot as I blinked twice, not opening my eyes yet. I felt my wrists tied together and my legs too tied together at my ankle. I was glad at least they didn't blindfold me. I remembered seeing Lauretta on Saint's thigh and running out, then was grabbed by CJ and finally at the red traffic stop, a car had run into us. And I still didn't believe Marcel was dead. Just like that. I grunted, opening my eyes lightly and letting my vision adjust to the light and surrounding. When I finally adjusted, I sat up and a girl lying beside me and tied just the same way I was, caught my attention. She moved a little and her face came into view which made a gasp to escape from my mouth as I saw who it was. "Suzy?" I said and she opened her eyes to look at me, shaking her head. Her mouth was ta
Mafia's Little Pearl Ninety three: Where
Saint's pov We were already halfway to Matrix's hideout since it was a two-hour ride when I looked at Alessandro like he had just said the most atrocious thing ever. "What do you mean CJ is unreachable?" I asked him, ringing CJ's line from my phone. He had texted me immediately after he found Jade and I had since been waiting for his call to tell me they were safe somewhere, maybe at the house, at any of the hotels I owned or just any place he could think of. But no call came in and my racy thoughts and the unsettling feeling I got made me uneasy with every second that passed by. And I had instructed Alessandro to call him. The same unsettling feeling I got the night of Aunt's death. His phone was switched off and I immediately rang Jade's line but got the same thing at her end. Something had to be wrong. And I hoped Matrix hadn't gotten a hold of them. Or even if he had, I hoped they were at the same location as he was, which was the exact place we were going to. I hated mysel
