When Liz finally made it to dinner with Jax, she was still pondering the situation with Faith. Jax was talking about something but stopped.

"The party's over it seems."

"Hmm."

"Eliza!"

"What?"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Its not you."

"Now I'm going to be paranoid if you say its you."

"It isn't. It's Faith Rosco."

"What did she do?"

"She tried to blackmail Lila."

"What? When? I'll kill her myself. Did she scare Lila?"

Liz snorted.

"Scare Lila, are you kidding?"

"What's so funny?"

"La Bella Mafia."

"What...does that mean Lady mob?"

"Yes, rumor has it that in the old days Family wars in Europe got out of hand, children getting killed along with there fathers. Before Lila married Edward she was lovers with one of these men. He was killed and Lila didn't take it well. The wives joined forces against their husbands and rules of conduct where enforced with deadly accuracy."

"Lila was apart of that?"

"Like I said rumor."

"You know more?"

"Nikoli introduced me to her when I was 14. I've had afternoon tea with her ever since. Let's just say I learned my resourcefulness from her."

"Lila, wow."

"More than perfect for Edward if you think about it."

Jax laughed.

"Even better he doesn't know."

"Even better. I'm sorry I'm bad company Jasper."

"Don't be. Come." He put out hand.

Liz got up from her seat and sat in his lap. He kissed her, mouths opened, and their tongues danced around each other. Liz moaned as she pressed her body to his, he groaned and broke the kiss.

"Make sure you're safe and Lila's safe and we'll work around each other."

"Hmm, as long as you keep kissing me like that."

"Deal."

He kissed her again, hard and deep getting up form the table and moving her to the couch. Then came a knock on his door.

"Yes?"

"I'm looking for Elizabeth."

"Here."

"Hi."

Jax just smiled, kissed her on the cheek.

"Let's go for a walk." She said to the new comer.



Courtney sat in the club preparing for the nights work when Faith sauntered in, arm in a sling. Courtney smiled.

"My brother finally gets tired of you?"

"No but you will."

"What does that mean?"

"That bitch, the one who sticks her noise in people business...what's her name Elizabeth? Jason's ex fluff?"

Liz broke Faith's arm. Courtney had seen Liz in a rage before, Jason and Sonny being the receiving end of it. No mater how much she hated Elizabeth, her attacks were never unjustified. Faith must have fucked up big time. Courtney got the sinking felling that this visit was about revenge. Liz walked into Kelly's and the hair on her neck stood up; she looked down at the Cellar when she hears a crash. A very big man was punching Courtney while two others held her down.

Liz came down the stairs and slammed Faith head first into the doorframe knocking her unconscious. She kicked the big guy in the balls from behind and he fell with a groan. Liz kicked the guy on the left in the head and then punched the guy on the right. They both recovered when Courtney let out a yell. Both women put up a fight, Liz a little more skilled than Courtney, but the job was done. Courtney was going after Faith when Liz stopped her and sat her down.

"Drink this."

It was vodka and it burned. Courtney took the second glass after Liz took a swig herself.

"What in the hell, Courtney are you alright!"

"Yeah Carly I'm good a little beat up and drunk but okay."

"Lock the door Carly, we need to talk. About a little thing called La Bella Mafia."

Alexis Davis didn't know what Liz Weber could want with her. Liz had managed to make herself the talk of the town in the last year. Saving lives and getting justice for the little guy, she used to be about that until she got side tracked with Sonny Corinthos. After that things went downhill fast. Now she was back on track. So what did Liz want with her? She walked into the Cellar to find Liz, Carly and Sonny's sister sitting around a table.

"You called me?"

"Have a seat. I called you here cause we have the same problem. Faith Roscoe."

"What problems has Alexis had with her?" Carly asked.

"I caught her holding Kristina twice."

"God is she alright?" Courtney said.

"Yes, she's with the Quartermaine's but they know better now. She's a definite threat so why doesn't Sonny take her out?"

"Because everybody would know he did it, ordered it, oversaw it. Here is the problem: Faith's young and stupid, but she getting smarter by the minute. She threatened Lila." Liz said.

"What!?" They said in unison.

"That's how she got her arm broken. I caught her. She has to be dealt with and it has to be made clear that Faith is bad news for everyone."

"What do you propose?" Alexis asked.

"La Bella Mafia. We work together. We are after all some of the most influential women in PC."

"How do you figure?" Courtney asked.

"Like it or not you're Mrs. Corinthos. No mater what Sonny says, that has power. You're his right hand's girlfriend that has power. Alexis you've got more than the both of them, a Cassadine and a lawyer."

"You?" Carly said.

"Well I make my own power and I have friends in high places."

"What do you propose we do?" Alexis asked.

"There are men who are still doing business with Faith, in the hopes that Sonny will be removed by her recklessness. We will turn her into a leper. Carly it will require you doing something you're forbade to do, get into Sonny's business."

"If this will protect my children, I'll do it."

"Me too." Courtney said.

"I'm most defiantly in. Where do we start?" Alexis said.

"Pressure on her business associates, including Edward and Ned."

"I'll do that." Alexis said.

"No you won't there is one member who couldn't be here with us and I'm sure she'll help."

Liz told Lila her plan and she agreed. If Edward or Ned had any ideas about dealing with Faith she'd deal with it. As for Alexis she had Gia put out injunctions on some of Faith's legal holdings and money. Carly had the hardest job, meeting with some of Sonny business associates. Liz could control that keeping it as quiet as she could. She made Courtney swear to distract Jason on those occasions.

Jax sat at the Grille having lunch, when something caught his attention. Faith Rosco. The woman was a menace to most including Sonny Corinthos nearly killing him and everyone around him on countless occasions. He heard something he didn't like; Liz's name her lips. Something went cold in Jax as she described in detail how she wanted Liz to die. As the man left Jax tired to get a good look at him but couldn't. He put on his best charming face and blocked her path.

"Mr. Jax?"

"Mrs. Rosco, do you think it best to be meeting strange men in public?"

"What do you care?"

"Just that you've pissed enough people off don't you think."

"Mind your own business."

"Not when it involves Liz."

"What is it with that fluff? Has every man in Port Charles had a crack at her?"

For the first time in his life Jax wanted to hit a woman.

"More like she's had a crack at all of them and has picked the best."

"You, you're fluff yourself."

"Fluff with a bigger bank account and more resources than you have. Go near Liz and I swear to God..."

"Jax, don't give her the satisfaction."

He turned to find Sonny behind him.

"Get lost witch."

"You're next but for now I will make that bitch pay for my arm."

Sonny actually had to hold Jax back.

"What did she say?"

"She's plotting Eliza's death."

"Eliza?" Sonny said arching and eyebrow.

"Mind your own business."

"If she is, you and I both know it will be a lot harder than that with Eliza."

"Mind your own business. Yes I know it will be hard, but there is no reason why I shouldn't make her feel the pressure. Are you opposed?"

"No. Knock yourself out. You have the right to protect yours, like I protect mine."

"Fair enough."

"Boys? You going to kiss each other next?" Liz said.

"Eliza." She saw the look on his face.

"What's wrong Jasper?"

"Nothing."

Liz eyed them both, men never could keep secrets. She could still smell the gallon of perfume that was Faith Rosco. She was in a good mood, Faith's finances had been frozen and would be under an audit come the end of the week. Carly had managed to convince Faith's associates that bigger forces had taken interest and it was best to get out. She simply smiled at Sonny and grabbed Jax's arm.

"You're in a good mood."

"Hmm, I had a good day. I think I need to get an apartment what do you think?"

"I think it's a good idea." He said softly.

"Jasper where are you?"

"With you, I'm sorry its just Faith's is a menace."

"I know don't worry she'll get hers."

"Are you up to something?"

"Maybe, enough about her let's enjoy each other okay."

"Okay Eliza."

He smiled.
