Mina Diamond Tears Novels & Stories

she comforted herself, outstretching her hand to stroke the wide sky. Lumpy clouds dotted the sky, painting a distinct difference between the arctic blue and the pristine white. It was as beautiful as ever. While she was absorbed in the tranquil sight above, something slipped out of her pocket—the half-magnolia jade. Holding it up high, she watched the weight slide to the middle of the blue yarn, shimmering under the sun. Her lips quivered, parted, and shut. Before she could react, tears once again welled up in her eyes as the agonizing scene flashed across the back of her mind...

It probably wouldn't have been ideal for anyone else, and hell, Nikki may hate me for not making more of a production out of it, but either way, I stuck my hand into my pocket. She focused on our son, yet I knew the moment she saw the diamond that glittered in the white-gold setting. I heard the gasp seconds before she moved her fingers to her mouth. When she pulled back enough for me to see her eyes, radiant blues and deep greys feathered from her pupils, and tears pooled, threatening to cascade down her cheeks. I hated to see her cry, but this was when she was the most beautiful...when she was vulnerable.

she teased. He grinned and nodded. "Anything." He pulled out a black velvet box from his pocket and handed it to her. "Consider this a Luna gift, and an early birthday present." Scarlett opened the box, and her eyes widened with shock. Nestled inside the plush interior was the Moon Diamond, the most expensive and rarest jewelry in all the realms, forged from the Moon Goddess's tears. There was only one of it in the entire realm. She was stunned speechless, her emerald eyes radiating the bright shimmer of the diamond.

Miles turned around and was met with Sasha's gaze. I happened to be looking down at Andy. Someone had given him a diamond necklace, which he was about to stuff into his mouth. I hurriedly pulled it out of his mouth. "Don't put just anything into your mouth, Andy!" Miles regained his senses and pried open Andy's mouth. With our joint effort, we finally tossed the diamond necklace onto the banquet table. We then hurriedly took a crying Andy out.

"So… what happened between you and him, last night?" Sitting beside Pearl, Ivory opened her mouth to answer, but before she could say anything, Pearl's sharp eyes concentrated on the necklace around Ivory's neck. "Wait a second," Pearl gasped in surprise, reaching for it. "Is that the famous Mermaid Tears?" Ivory gently took it off and placed it on the bed. "Yeah." Pearl picked it up like it was a sacred relic. "Yeah? A simple yeah? Do you even know how expensive this is?"

Her eyes were swollen, but her hands never stopped moving. On a black velvet canvas, she arranged a cluster of small diamonds—not in a classic pattern, but in the shape of cracks, like shattered glass. In the center, one large deep-blue gem stood strong and unbroken. The main stone was called “Tears of the Phoenix.” She touched it gently, her voice barely a whisper. "I don’t have to be whole to still have worth." Taking a deep breath, she began redrawing the diamond crown’s detailing for the charity gala. "If they want to destroy me with my past wounds, then I’ll answer with a creation born from those very wounds."

Even though everyone seemed interested in having them, as they would be a show of their wealth, all she could think of as she sat there was when she was going to be able to leave. Her interest was piqued when the host revealed the last item, which was a crystal blue necklace that gleamed and shimmered under the light. The host called it a one-time offer, as it was a limited piece from the designer, and the name of the piece was 'Mermaid Tears'. Lila could not lie; she wished she could have that for herself, but she was not about to spend millions to acquire it. She was not there to spend money but to be arm candy for Levi.

As I stared down at the glimmering diamond ring, I could only think about how ironic this entire thing was. "You have a horrible memory, Dean. This ring is filthy." I walked over and grabbed the ring. Dean grinned with glee, foolishly assuming that I'd changed my mind. "Eve, you..." However, his face soon went stiff, frozen in place. I raised my hand and threw the priceless diamond ring down to the patch of grass at the bottom of the building. Tears welled up in his eyes as he gazed down in dejection, clinging to the railing.

He eggs me on as he holds it in his hand as an offering. Taking it out of his opened hand, I can feel the cool silky texture of the wrapping. It is beautiful unto itself, and I admire it for a second before quickly opening the box. As soon as I open it, my mouth drops open. Because inside, is a pair of exquisitely handcrafted diamond tear drop earrings that must be 2 or 3 carats each. I stare at them, too afraid to pick them up. Until Dominic says, “Please try them on. Or don’t you like them? If you don’t, I will get you new ones.”

Revealing the twenty-four karat white gold necklace, speckled with small diamonds, ajured with hearts clasping around a small picture in the middle. Everyone suddenly pauses in silence as tears slowly fell from Michelle's beautiful golden honey brown eyes. I scooted closer to her, only to have her jump at me into a tight hug as she sobbed on my shoulder saying " Thank you! Thank you so much! This is the best gift I could have ever received! I thought all the photos of her had been lost and destroyed in the fire." Cole's father had been the one who found it while cleaning up after the fire had burnt down Michelle's grandmother's home.
