Guarding The Mafia's Son

Prologue

Diamond's POV

" Honey, I don't like this", my mom Danika Jewels says stubbornly for the third time.

What I want is quite simple but is being difficult. It's not like I'm leaving home or something worse.

"Mom please", I beg but she only shakes her head,"all I want, is for us to take care of one another".

Mom continues to shake her head and move to sit on one of the dining chairs. She looks up and fixes her gaze on me. I stare back.

" But I'm your mother. I have to take care of you Diamond, its my responsibility to take care of you and Violette", mom explains.

I understand but mom has got to know she needs all the help when it comes to finances and I'm ready to do whatever work that'd earn me something.

Mom had agreed last year to let me work at my buddy, Matt's mechanic shop, but only after I had pestered her for days. Why was she being so difficult this time?

Dad had left mom three years after my baby sister, Violette Antonia Jewels, had been born. I still wonder what made him leave us since mom doesn't want to talk about it still.

Mom's salary from working as a secretary and her small restaurant wasn't enough to take care of our fees and the bills, and there was college to think about.

"Mom listen, I can do this and I want to do this", I tell mom.

She looks up at me with worried eyes and says, " what at all is it you want to do Monica?"

I'm surprised she used my middle name. She seldom used it.

I blink a couple of times since I'm unsure.

"I don't know yet mom, but I need your permission first".

Mom shakes her head again and I'm afraid she's going to disagree but she surprises me.

" I know I'll regret this but anything for my jewel, honey. You can go ahead".

A smile breaks on my face and I run to hug her, "thanks mom".

" Maintain your grades though or forget about what you want", she warns and I laugh.

I know mom only agreed because she knew it wasn't going to affect my studies. Fortunately, I was a grade A student so nothing to worry about.

Now, all I had to do was find a job; whatever job and just one person can help me with that. Matthew Harris.
