Mafia's Little Pearl One: An unexpected incident
Jade's POV:I glanced around before crossing over to the other side of the road where the bar I was working at was. I knew he was looking for me, I just knew it. Only the thought of him disgusted me and I hoped silently that none of his men had found me yet. If there was anything I knew about my uncle, it was that he was never going to give up.. not until he found me. The three weeks I had been away from the house was really healthy for me and as soon as I got the job I wanted, I was going to leave the country and never come back again. I walked into the bar, the 'closed' sign still hanging by the window. Everyone looked busier than usual as they went about their activities. I went to change into my work clothes and saw Betty inside. "The red one is here!" Betty shouted making me giggle. "You came just in time."" What's going on?" I asked inquisitive, dropping my bag on the bench and proceeding to remove my top. "Well, they say the owner is in town and he's coming to the bar tod
Mafia's Little Pearl Two: Taken by the boss
Saint's POV:*The day before*The airport was crowded, each person going about their daily activities while the only thing on my mind at the moment was finding where the fuck Tequila was and making sure I made him regret ever crossing me."Do you see them?" I asked one of my men who walked beside me. "Yes boss, over there," he replied signalling to where CJ and the rest of the gang stood. "Anything yet?" I asked CJ as we got into the car. "Nothing. We're still trying to track him". I puffed out some smoke before putting off the cigarette and throwing it out the window. "Let's head to the red bar then." We drove through the back of the bar into the garage leading to the bar basement, somewhere we used as our hideout most times. Getting there, CJ gave me a briefing on the business and how Tequila had ruined things. The more I looked at my shattered hardwork, the more I promised myself I was going to kill him. I gulped down the remaining alcohol and stood up ready to leave. "Let
Mafia's Little Pearl Three: A plan to escape
My uncle might have found me. This rang continuously in my head and traumatic events I didn't want to recall kept on replaying in my head alongside. "No," I muttered shaking my head. I needed to leave this place, I needed to move to somewhere else, I needed to escape and lastly, I needed a plan for it. I just had to come up with it quick enough, I had already promised myself I wasn't going to go back. Ever. It was the early hours of the morning as we left the bar quietly and drove to Saint's house which was where I would be staying starting that moment. I pretty much learnt he was the owner which Betty talked about and I knew I had to put my guard up around him. I was even more shocked when Rex said, "How don't you know Saint Gennaro Guerra, the infamous man and you live here?" And that was when it all clicked. I'd heard lots of stuff about him and let's say none of them were really on the positive scale. His house was quite large and beautiful. I scanned the area as we walked in
Mafia's Little Pearl Four: Back at Hell's hole
I woke up to Saint laying beside me breathing softly. I looked around to see we were back in the room at the bar basement where I'd woken up the previous day. I didn't remember us coming here.Flashbacks from the previous night came flooding in and Saint's little toss on the bed made the sheets rustle. I sighed, feeling the effect of the previous night's alcohol on me.How did I go from trying to run away to ending up in bed with him? I looked over to Saint and ran a hand continuously through his hair admiring how soft it felt. This woke him up and he looked at me, then held my wrist to prevent me from touching his hair again. "What're you doing?" He asked sitting up and taking a glance at the room. "I...I just maybe-" I started before he shot me a displeased look and got out of bed. He wore his vest and trousers. I just didn't know how this man always managed to make me speechless each time. "Get dressed, we're leaving in five," He said and headed towards the door but then stopp
Mafia's Little Pearl Five: Who was this man even?
I broke out in cold sweats as I waited in Saint's car with mixed emotions. What had happened in there? Was Saint hurt? Or was it my uncle? I picked at my cuticles multiple times as I kept on peeking at the gate. A few minutes later, Saint strutted out of the house and towards the car looking as calm as ever. His man bun which had been packed all along had little strands coming to his face. Unmistakably, he had shot my uncle and the fact that I wasn't hearing my uncle's voice any longer might have well sent a message to me that he was probably dead. I felt a mild sense of relief and at the same time, a bittersweet emotion about my uncle. He got into the driver's seat and examined my body for the second time again. "He didn't do it right?" I shook my head slowly at him. "No."And with that, we drove off. I didn't know why I couldn't bring myself to ask him about my uncle but at the same time, it wasn't like I cared that much. At least now, I didn't need to run away or hide any lo
Mafia's Little Pearl Six: A cold house
What was going on today? I opened my eyes and looked at Saint at the same time he looked at me before getting outside the car to check what had hit us. He came back a few minutes later and started the engine without saying another word. Blood rolled down from the side of his head towards his temple and I saw him wipe it off The traffic light turned green and we drove off. From the side mirror, I saw a woman standing, a hat on her head with shades on, both arms folded. I didn't say a word to Saint either as I guessed he also saw her. CJ and the rest were already at the house as we got there. "Take her to the room," Saint said to him, "And put the guys at every corner of the house. Make sure she's safe." CJ signalled Rex to take me to my room which he did while he (CJ) left with Saint. I glanced back in an attempt to see if Saint was doing okay and I couldn't even tell. Betty had already rung my phone a countless number of times and I decided to call her back. "You fucking dis
Mafia's Little Pearl seven : I don't catch feelings
I hesitated before answering. "Uh..", I started clearing my throat. "It's Jade". I Said walking into the room. I met his eyes through the mirror and proceeded to stand a few feet behind him unsure of what next to do. "I told CJ to not let you out of the room until you're well," He hissed at me eyeing me from the mirror, his back still turned towards me. "I.. I.. Uh... Didn't know that," I replied, hearing my voice come out more tin than supposed. He didn't respond or stand either, instead, he kept on dressing his injury while I watched him. His well-sculpted back and arms flexed once again with each of his movements. That was the first time I was seeing him shirtless while sober and I was using every bit of self-control in me to stop myself from running over to him and running my hands on them. I took a huge breath, dragging my eyes away from his body and looking elsewhere, anywhere around his room. His room was quite big, the walls were painted just the same as the rest of th
Mafia's Little Pearl Eight: Blood and thoughts
Saint's POV. They were not beating him up properly or that was what it looked like and I was pretty much starting to get impatient. The guy who had been together with Tequila the past month coughed up blood as one of my men kicked him in the stomach several times. He was a tight-lipped person and this kind of ones needed some special kind of treatment. We were at a partition of the bar basement or the 'dead hole' as I've heard some others call it. It was where everyone who crossed me ended up at. Nobody had ever made it out of here alive and it had always continued to be that way. Once you were taken into the dead hole, it was over. I put up my hand, motioning for my guy to stop kicking him. I took a huge breath and uncrossed my legs, rolling my shirt sleeves up to my elbows. "You're not going to make it out here alive, so you might as well start talking," I told him walking over to where they were. I grabbed his face making sure my fingers were digging into his cheeks which made

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
