Mina Diamond Tears Novels & Stories

The auction kicked off. I tuned out the early lots; my interest piqued only when the auctioneer's voice rose with anticipation. "And now, the crown jewel of tonight's event: the Mermaid's Tear pink diamond!" As the lights dimmed and a single spotlight shone on the stage, a pink diamond the size of a pigeon's egg emerged, casting enchanting lights around the room. I inhaled sharply, my hand poised over the switch. Three, two, one……

My eyes moved from one piece to the next until they landed on something that stopped me in my tracks. It was a black gemstone—smooth and deep, almost like it held a secret. A woman standing beside the display walked over to me. She was the curator of the auction, maybe in her fifties, with kind eyes and a name tag that read “Ms. Darla.” She smiled politely. “Ah, I see you’ve found The Nightcore Tear.” I raised an eyebrow. “Nightcore Tear?”

In a twinkle of an eye, I was beside her, "deep down, you like everything that I do to you, I know you do, admit it Daisy " She falter for a moment, "no, I don't " she replied but her reply is weak, tears were still flowing from her eyes and I gently swipe them off her face, my heart constricted painfully, I hate to see her cry, it makes me just wanna hold her tight and protect her, tell her everything will be okay, but then, I always remind myself that she's not as innocent as she seems, I let my hands fall by my side as if she had burnt me and check in every emotion that wanted to surface "I told you not to ever cry before me," I said brusquely and she slowly wiped her tears, "good" reachi

They look painful but beautiful like expensive torture. I smile without meaning to. Santino wants me to look like a masterpiece tonight. Fine. I can play along. The last box nearly blinds me. A diamond necklace and earrings. Pure white diamonds arranged in delicate drops, catching the light like crushed stars. They look like something royalty would wear. I know they cost thousands probably more. My eyes sting with tears. Not because of Santino’s extravagance but Because… diamonds. They really are a girl’s best friend. I set everything aside and undress quickly, rushing into the bathroom for a shower. On my vanity is a small note:

Once she looked at you with those big, beautiful adorable eyes and that killer cute smile, you’d be ready to blast mountains to get her that rarest of rare diamond. Mahira’s heart melted, “baby, I’m so sorry to have left you for so long, what made you cry so hard darling, you know how bad mama is feeling right now,” Mahira almost had tears in her eyes, she’d never heard Tama cry like this. “Hey Mak, tell me how did you bully my Tama, I swear I’ll hang you up side down and..,” “Hold it, hold it fighter, its not me who made your pumpkin cry,”

Emilia's eyes widened as she gazed at the dress, her heart racing with excitement. The second maid then lifted the cloth from the other tray, revealing another box, this time a jewelry box. As the maid opened it, Emilia gasped in wonder. A diamond-cut necklace with a sapphire red diamond, shaped like a teardrop, lay nestled in the box, accompanied by matching earrings. The jewelry was breathtakingly beautiful, and Emilia felt an instant connection to it, as if drawn to its radiance.

The jewelry was surrounded by diamonds sparkling like stars, its overall shape resembling a teardrop falling into the night sky, shining brightly in the room. "No more words—let's leave the time to our guests. Starting bid: 2,000,000!" "It's actually Stellar Tears! This is also a piece designed by Lamar! I must have it! 3,000,000!" "This lady bids 3,000,000! Any higher offers?" "I bid 4,000,000!" The bidding climbed rapidly. Amelia noticed that the main bidders were the three people in the front row—the ones responsible for driving up the price.

Her face went from pale to ghostly white and her breathing hitched, a shape ragged sound that drew the attention of some nearby guests. "This is a Starlight Tear. I saw the auction listing in Geneva. There are only five in the world." Lucas stepped forward on hearing this, his eyes narrowing at my throat. "What are you talking about, Selena? It's just a piece of glass." "It's not glass, Lucas!" Selena turned to him, her voice rising, losing its composed, manipulative edge. "It's a D-flawless diamond. It's worth more than our entire house!"

Nyla frowned and whispered, "Don't get your hopes up. Let's hurry and leave." She pulled Valarie along, but as they reached the door, Damon stopped them. He held out The Lone Tear and said clearly, "The meaning of this jewelry is—no matter how long it's lost, I will always love you and only you."

Davian replied like he was talking about a random necklace from the store next door. Tears of the Ice Queen was more than just a neck piece. It was history. Word was the jewellery was made from the purest diamond and the tears of the most ruthless female Empress to ever live. The piece was so precious that it was stored in an underground vault and has never been released to anyone. “Do you understand what you are saying? The tears of the ice queen is going to be released from its over-the-top security underground vault for me?” I asked again, pointing at myself to confirm that he knew exactly what he was saying.
