Daruss held his phone. “I’ll have Gavin bring Easton here. He might be able to help find out what the smell is.”
“You think that’s what made that boy ill?” Izzy held his shirt over his nose as he headed down the hallway.
“What else could it be?” Daruss was right. The club had never smelled like that in the history of them owning the building.
That had to be what was affecting his boys too. Maybe they were so dizzy they couldn’t get out of the bathroom. Unconscious? Whatever it was, he had to get to them.
When he made it to the bathroom he expected to find them inside, maybe passed out but they weren’t there. No one was inside.
His heartbeat increased and his chest tightened. It had been a long time since he’d lost control, but he was about to. He could feel his dragon taking over. Instead of pushing down his instincts, he let them take over. He fought to stay in his human form, but he let his dragon sniff the air for his mates. It wasn’t easy because the smell of rotten eggs was overpowering.
“We need to find out where the smell is coming from.” Daruss went into the storage room and Izzy headed down the hall toward the back door.
They always kept the door locked so it being ajar was beyond abnormal. He followed his boys’ scents outside and across the lot. Past the bikes to where Cain and the other guy had parked.
Skippy and Landry joined him in the parking lot.
“You traced them out here?” Skippy asked.
“They disappeared a few minutes ago.” Izzy tapped his head. “They aren’t conscious. But they’re alive. Cain Nicholson was parked here.”
“Cain’s the littler one with dark hair, right? Not the one you attacked.” Skippy asked.
“How did they get Todd and Ulises out of the club in just seconds?” Landry asked.
“Drugged them.” Izzy pulled his vest and shirt over his head and handed them to Skippy. “I need someone to get all the information about Cain as you can. And check that dating app for the other guy. Ulises seemed to recognize him. That’s the only place he would have met him.”
“Got it.” Skippy took the rest of Izzy’s clothes and Landry’s when he stripped too.
They shifted and took to the sky. Izzy wanted an aerial view of the area. Maybe he’d see Cain’s truck.
If Cain was around, he didn’t go toward town. Izzy would have seen him. The road leading into Wingspan was clear. The landscape of open fields made it possible to see for miles.
He must have gone in the opposite direction.
He shrieked, letting Landry know he was heading back.
He needed a plan, which including seeking help.
As soon as Izzy entered the club Skippy threw his clothes at him.
Landry followed. Skippy stood in front of Landry with his back turned to shield him while he dressed. Not that anyone would stare but Landry had issues with being naked in front of people. At least when there was a crowd. For a shifter it was odd but for Landry it came with the trauma of his past.
“Who the fuck is Cain and that other dude working for?” Someone bankrolled the little shit.
Easton held up his hand. “First things first. The smell comes from hydrogen sulfide. It is very toxic and can kill people. Wefound a bottle of it in the storage room. We put it outside. And then called the Wingspan sheriff. He’s on his way. But in the meantime, Raylee and I will come around and take everyone’s vitals.”
Daruss addressed Izzy. “Are they alive?”
Izzy nodded. “Unconscious.”
“In smaller doses it’s less…lethal. Dizziness leads to unconsciousness, basically.” Easton had a blood pressure cuff around Ronin’s arm.
“So who the hell is Cain Nicholson?”
Jude who hadn’t gotten dressed yet, sat on the couch with a laptop on his legs. “Do you remember taking out a trafficking ring? The Gianelli family. About two months ago.”
“The Grand River job?”
