Naomi's POV

After our "shower", we got dressed and headed towards the basement, which they called the "dungeon" cause it sounded cooler or something.

When we got down there, Lisa was tied to a chair that was tied to a pillar. She had a cloth wrapped her around her mouth, keeping her from speaking. My gaze drifted over to Dylan, who just stared her at with such hatred.

AJ entered the room before walking up to Lisa and taking the cloth out of her mouth, letting it hang around her neck.

"Speak." he orders her.

"Why does she have to be in here to know?" Lisa questioned while looking at me with a nasty grimace.

"That doesn't concern you. Just start talking." Dylan answered, venom dripping from his tone.

"I'll talk once she leaves." Lisa said with a shrug of her shoulders.

Out of nowhere, Dylan pulled a knife from his side before slamming down between Lisa slightly parted thighs. My eyes widened in shock from how fast he moved. And where the hell did the knife come from?

Shock and fear spread across Lisa's face faster than lightening.

"This is not a negotiation." Dylan growled out in a low tone. It was more than venom that was escaping his lips. It was actually quite attractive seeing him like this. Lisa quickly nodded her head, leaving Dylan to remove his knife from the chair and returning to beside me.

"Now, speak." he says.

"He has a plan." she lets out. My eyebrow arches in question.

"Yeah no shit he has a plan but what is it?" Dylan retorts. Thank you cause what?

Lisa takes a glimpse at me before looking back at Dylan.

"He trying to take you out. Ending your father's legacy is all he ever wanted. He'll bring his whole army with him if he has to to get what he wants." Lisa continues. I across my arms, still questioning the whole situation.

"That attack that happened at Naomi's house was an attempt to kill you and her." Lisa nods her head towards me.

"He wanted to take out any chance of starting a new generation of Lees." she claimed, not even hiding the disgust in her voice as she stared me down. I roll my eyes before giving her a annoyed look.

"Nooooo they weren't trying to kill us, they just wanted some tea and biscuits." I sarcastically remark. A smile appears on Dylan and AJ's faces while Lisa's face fell into a frown and then anger.

"You asked for answers, so I'm giving them to you. So kindly shut the hell up and let me continue." Lisa said with a fake smile on her face. My face falls as I walk towards her before throwing my hand back and slapping her with the back instead of my palm. I didn't realize I did it till Lisa's screamed and her face was thrown to the side, a red mark beginning to stain her cheeks.

"Say some shit again, I will personally kill you myself." I whisper in her ear. I don't know what came over me to say it but I had it with her bitchy attitude for too long.

When I turned around to go back to where I was standing, shock was outlined on AJ and Dylan's face. Their eyes were wide but small smiles adorned the faces, showing pride. As I reclaimed my spot next to Dylan, everyone's eyes followed me. Dylan had a lustful look in his eyes while AJ looked like he wanted to burst out laughing. Lisa head turned towards me and I saw nothing but hatred and tucked under her eyes was a bit a fear.

"You may continue." I told Lisa, recrossing my arms and leaning against the wall. I could tell Lisa was despising me like no other, but nonetheless, she continued.

She continued on about Salo bringing all his allies into one area, meeting up to make a plan and take us down. His allies included the Russians, Canadians, Hawaiians, and many more all across the world. Most of the names she listed, I didn't even know had mafia.

As she talked, I would glance at Dylan. He looked in deep thought as she continued, maybe thinking of a plan. And even though the list of allies she listed got longer and longer, I didn't see a hint of fear or worry flicker in his eyes.

Once she was done talking, AJ put the cloth back in her mouth before taking her back to her cell. Dylan and I left to go to his room, while AJ called up his father to tell him everything.

Dylan and I reached his room. We entered and I closed the door behind us. We sat on the newly cleaned bed the Dylan's maids cleaned while we were gone. While I sat down at the top of the bed, Dylan sat at the bottom, letting nothing but quietness overtake the room.

"What's on your mind?" I ask him.

"Something's not adding up." he tells me.

"What do you mean?" I question as I travel to the foot of the bed.

"I feel like she's not telling us everything." he claims.

"That, but is it possible that she's reporting to someone else?" I question.

"What do you mean?" Dylan asks. I give him a dumbfounded look but continue anyways.

"What if she's not telling us everything because she's already told somebody else." I state with a questioning tone.

Dylan seemed to ponder the thought for a while.

"So, you think she's working for someone else?" Dylan said quietly.

"I wouldn't be surprised." I retort with a shrug of my shoulder.

"Okay." he said simply. I arch my brow.

"Okay?" I question.

"Yeah. It was your idea so lets see if it's right." Dylan continues. Well that was easy.

"What do you suppose that we do?"

"We start giving false information around her. Whoever she reports to, will be receiving the wrong information, hopefully messing up their plans and putting us a good amount of steps ahead." Dylan explains.

I chuckle, thinking the idea was genius.

"Is this funny?" Dylan asks with an amused tone and small smile.

" 'A good amount of steps ahead.' Trust me Dylan, we'll be playing a whole different board game."
