Mafia's Little Pearl Forty nine: Jelly jelly
The jealousy travelled through my veins at the sight and I felt my gums hurt from my teeth gnashing together. I turned back to face Betty. "That jerk." I spat out. "ouuuhh... someone's jelly jelly jealous!!" Betty teased, pointing a finger at me while making her eyebrows dance. She then shot me a mischievous smile. "I'm not!" I huffed immediately, glaring at her. "Yeah and blackberries are yellow since we're starting a lying contest here," She replied back. "Look at your white fingertips and how your face is almost the same shade as your hair."I looked down at my fingers which were extremely tightened around my glass cup to see that they were indeed turning white and I needed no mirror to tell me how red my face looked that instant because I could feel the warmness itself. Mrs obvious who was bad at lying was at it again. I glanced back at Saint and the woman to see the woman giggling at something he had said. "He isn't even that funny. Or funny even. What the hell is she laug
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty: Feelings or not
Saint's Pov I dropped her off at home and watched as she got out of the car and strode into the house, her ass guided by her petite waist swayed side by side with each step she took. She looked cute. I remember how cute and innocent she had been when I'd seen her the morning after waking up from being shot and all I had just wanted was to take her in my arms and shield her away from any future danger, stopping her from experiencing it. I found myself biting down on my lower lip and thinking of how soft her skin always felt under my touch. I wanted to feel it once more. Just once. But again, I knew I needed to stop if I wanted to not make the feelings I had for her grow any deeper. Fuck. Did I just admit to liking her? No. That wasn't it. I didn't like her that way. It wasn't feelings. It had to be something else. Maybe I was just nice to her cause she just lost her sister. And maybe because I just didn't like seeing her hurt. Yes. That was just it. It had to be it. Then ear
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty one: Strawberry cake
Jade's povThe sun's rays hit my face harshly, interrupting my sleep which caused me to hiss and throw a pillow over my face, blocking away the light. I snuggled into the blanket, yawning and trying to go back to sleep when my phone rang out loud, causing me to hiss again. I can't even get a nice sleep on my birthday. I groaned as I opened my eyes and scanned the bed for my phone in order to answer it or put it off. Whichever it was. I saw it, halfway almost falling off the bed and stretched my hand to grab it. I checked the caller and without a doubt, it was Betty. I slid the green icon and dropped it on my ear, closing my eyes and sighing. "Hey, Betty.""Happy freaking super duper birthday red one!!!" She shouted from the other end, almost making me deaf and at the same time waking me up totally. She started singing the birthday song just as I sat up, putting her on speaker then stretched lazily. "Yeah yeah. Thanks." I replied unexcitedly. "You have to say how old you are
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty two: Red Tulips
Jade's Pov. It was afternoon already and I had never been more bored in my life. I was having a crappy birthday just like any other year and I couldn't wait to go to the bar that evening and have my strawberry cake with Betty. I stood up checking my hair in the mirror and saw I already had my roots growing out. I had to start making plans to dye my hair red once more. I took up my phone to text Betty to get me some dye packs when I opened our chat to not see any of the previous texts I had sent. I remembered texting her about a bracelet and telling her to get me a strawberry cake as well.Or did I imagine that? I felt my nose and brows scrunch up at the thought as I stared at our chat. Just then someone knocked on my door. I opened up the door to see CJ standing in front of me, a flower bouquet in his hands. He didn't look like he was happy to see me. Was he still holding a grudge from the vacation time? "Uhm...Hey." I said, slouching by the door, putting my weight on one foot
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty three: Red
Jade's pov "Oh my dear, how do you manage to look good in everything?!" Saint's Aunt marvelled as she stood admiring me. I rubbed my arm lightly, looking down and smiling at the compliment. "I'm sure he won't be able to take his eyes off you, my dear." She added then went to stand behind me, letting me look at the mirror to see myself. I saw myself and a smile appeared on my face. My makeup was perfect and my hair was nicely styled in a low bun.I couldn't wait for Saint to see me and my heart bubbled with excitement at just the thought of it. She grinned widely seeing that I was impressed. "I think it's because you know exactly what to do," I said to her, glancing at her face for a bit. She waved her hand in the air. "Oh don't give me all the credit."I chuckled a bit at that. This woman was so sweet. I saw her rush to the shopping bag and pull out a light blue dress, a box containing a pair of shoes and a box of jewellery.She dragged me up by my hand. "Let's get you in thes
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty four: Enjoying the moment
Jade's Pov. I could feel his eyes still on me as I tried to remain still, our arms rubbing softly and our hands together. The car came to a halt at a restaurant. "Just a moment." He said leaving my hand and coming down from the car to come open the door for me before the driver did. His men stood around waiting for us and Saint helped me get out of the car, covering me slightly to prevent me from flashing his men through the high slit on my dress. He held my hand just like he previously did and smiled at me. "Ready?" "Yeah," I answered, smiling back at him. He motioned for his men as we headed into the restaurant and they all took their positions. Some remained where our cars were parked, some others stood at strategic places and at the entrance of the restaurant while the rest followed us in. The waiters of the restaurant were already by the door waiting for us and they smiled when they saw us walk in. I noticed immediately the restaurant was empty just as it was the other t
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty Five: Need you
Saint's Pov. We were at the beach now. She had said she wanted to walk barefooted on it and feel her toes curl into the sand while licking her ice cream. And of course, I was going to do it for her. And it was even better because it was the best place to show her the fireworks I'd prepared. The breeze blew her dress up a bit and she pouted, holding it down with her other hand that didn't have her ice cream. I watched her lick her ice cream for a bit before turning to me. Seeing that I was looking at her already made her smile. "This is exactly what I want. The sand feels so smooth." She said looking down to her feet and I saw her play with the sand, wriggling her toes in it. It made me chuckle. Every single thing she did was cute and I never got tired of watching her. She then glanced up at me then shook her head. "You really are a grandpa. I don't get why you'd choose mint chocolate over the numerous choices on the list." She said causally before licking hers. I shrugged, "I
Mafia's Little Pearl Fifty six: Coffee
Jade's povMy eyebrows furrowed together as the sun rays hit my face making me shut my eyes much more tighter. I was naked under the sheets and my back was pressed against a Saint's chest. His arm went across my naked breasts with his hand cupping one of them while my hand rested on his. His soft breaths followed making his body rise and fall slowly. I felt his little guy digging into my butt and I smiled at that. The previous night's memories came flooding back and I snuggled into his warmth more.I lay there for a while as he slept until I felt the need to pee. I turned to look at him to see he was still asleep and figured out I'd have to get out quietly and slowly in order for him not to wake up. I took his arm off me and had barely managed to stand up when I felt him pull me closer to himself, holding me tighter. "Where're you going, sweetie?" I heard him mutter which made me snap my head at him. "I thought you were asleep.""I was." He replied, not opening his eyes. "I need

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
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
