Who Could've Thought

Chapter 27: Lidia

Maya's pov:

"We have to find Lidia before it's too late Xalio." I said.

"I'll tell my team to set up for a stakeout around Dagger's warehouse where Lidia's phone was found. Once she's out in the open, we'll grab her and bring her here." Xalio suggested.

"You sure it's gonna work?" I asked in a doubtful tone.

"You got a better plan bellissima?" he raised his brows.

"Good point." I chuckled.

So he called up his team and walked them through the plan. We were all a bit sceptical about the results of this plan because if she gets away, she's gonna tell Dagger that we're onto them.
It'll turn into a big war which might result badly. They agreed anyways, saying they had to take this risk and it's probably the only plan we could come up with in such a short period of time.

"Alright, Jake, Elijah you know the drill. Locate the nearest vacant buildings, empty construction sites for the snipers to position in." I instructed.

"Locate the nearest alleys where we can stake and send everyone the respective coordinates. Everyone wear the earpieces." Xalio added in.

"Alright, I'll help set the weapons. Al, Rav bring out the van for the stakeout." I announced and we all immediately got to work.

Just as we received the coordinates, we left for the stakeout.

Stakeouts are probably the longest  most boring things in the world because you're looking for one small moment in time to happen while you happen to be there for that eight hours of your day.

[2 hours into the stakeout]

"Ugh god, this is taking ages!" Maeve groaned.

[3 hours into the stakeout]

"I swear, if this bitch doesn't show up in the next hour.. I'll go in myself." Luna said, irritated by the wait.

[4 hours into the stakeout]

"Hey look! look! I think she's out." Zayn said as he looked closely through his binoculars.

"Wait for her to walk a little far from the warehouse, into a quieter and darker place. Then pick her up and we'll dash." Xalio advised.

After she walked a distance, into a dark alley, we sent in Luna and Maeve to grab her and put her in the car. They struggled for a bit. She squealed, fought, tried to take out her gun but dropped it and my girls took quite a few hits from her but they managed to catch her and bring her back to the penthouse.

Today, the bitch was sitting on the other side of the interrogation process. Cuffed to the chair, her legs tied down and she was rocking back and forth, trying to get herself free.

"How does feel like to be on the other side?" I smirked at her.

"You deserve whatever is coming for you!" she yelled.

I slapped her.

"You're a disgrace to our gang! You're a disgrace of a woman!" Xalio raged.

"You left me for this worthless bitch! She's a whore and she lured you into liking her!" she grunted.

That's it. I lost my calm. I grabbed her neck and stabbed my nails into her cheeks. I could hear her gasp and choke. That's when I knew, now I was in complete power.

"Xalio might have been super patient with your bitchy attitude but that quality is something I lack.
Shut your mouth and listen to me now. Don't you ever disrespect me like that ever again. Not that you'll live to see the light of day tomorrow anyway. The only bitch in this room is you.
Look at their disappointed faces, Lidia. You've let your team down. You've let those people down who lifted you up from when you had nothing! Dagger was just using you. He would've killed you as soon as he got all the money and power."
