“True.” With that knowledge, they’d have the wherewithal to be more help than hinder. “So, what were you thinking?”
“If we could only find out their location,” Boston said.
Azrael huffed a short laugh.
“What?” Boston asked with a frown.
“Every vehicle in Dave’s fleet has a locator.”
Boston held his gaze.
Azrael’s smile widened.
Ice and Echo were currently out of town on a job, so Stone had called Wrath.
“Rogue and I will be there,” Wrath told him.
Barreling through the streets, Stone stayed just a tad over the speed limit to avoid getting stopped.
When Stone reached the hotel, he waited in the front lobby.
He was worried.
Genesis had a protocol that Erebus didn’t have and that was to check in every twenty-four hours. He glanced at his watch, with the drive time from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles included, the total hours were now twenty-eight.
Rogue roared an SUV into the valet parking and both men jumped out.
“What room?” Wrath asked.
“1806,” Stone said and turned toward a voice when his name was called.
The men of Erebus converged into the hotel lobby. Erebus team leader Savage Markel had called ahead and they were met by a doorman with a key to Crow’s suite. The man led them to a side door to avoid the metal detectors.
“Thank you for this,” Stone told the guy.
“Savage saved my family. I owe him everything,” the doorman said, walking them to the elevator. The man pushed the button and then walked away.
Stone checked, then double-checked the clip on his weapon as the elevator zoomed upward.
Reaching the door, Stone frowned. “No signs of forced entry.”
“That doesn’t matter, with enough money people can buy a key card,” Rogue said and flipped the temporary card against the reader.
The door beeped and when Stone pushed it open, only darkness shone through the crack.
Wrath put a hand on Stone’s shoulder and blocked Rogue from entering.
“I think only one of us needs to go in. Not all of us. If he’s wounded, he will kill us,” Wrath said and shot a glance at Rogue and then back to Stone.
“You’re right,” Stone agreed with a nod.
“I’ll go in.” Rogue shouldered them all aside, even Wrath, who gave the bigger man a hot glare. “If he attacks, I have a better chance of overpowering him.”
Wrath rolled his eyes. “Not on a bet.”
“I’m going in. I need to do this,” Rogue said quietly and Wrath deflated.
Rogue cupped the back of Wrath’s neck and leaned in, pressing his forehead to Wrath’s for a moment before he stepped back and slipped inside the room.
