Divorced Ex-Luna Returns With Triplets
CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE: Pain Triggered

Nathaniel'S POV

I couldn't control myself. The way the fucker had been holding her and he even kissed her. He knew I would be at the restaurant because I owned it. He had asked the manager for a favor and I had been confused as to why someone would request that the upper roof be totally cleared out. I had gone there to see for myself, only to see her kissing him and staring into his eyes like he was her safe haven. I wanted that too. It was meant for me and not him. She should have looked

at me that way.

I was her... I was her what?

I closed my eyes, letting out a muffled groan as I stared at the file before me. I was yet to find out the one who was behind the attack on the Luna Queen. It felt like at every point that I got to, the trail was cleared and I had to start again. That was why I went to Atlanta to meet a Lycan who was skilled in trailing.

I definitely could not give up since my pack was on the line. Just last week, I received a call that the feedback was yet to be received and I felt like I was being incapable of finding it. It was annoying the fuck out of me.

I hissed, dropping my glasses to the desk and staring at the door, the looming presence of my Beta making me sit alert. The door creaked open and his eyes clashed with mine, no reaction from him as he closed the door and stepped further. He sighed. "I looked through it. The owner of the restaurant is an old man who lives far away from New York but..."

"But what, Grayson?" I asked him. I was already getting tired of these things. I had other things to focus on. Things like getting back my ex-wife and Luna.

"He is dead." And now, that was it. Every time! Every damn time!

"What-" I stopped myself before I would shout at him. He was not one behind the attack, I should not take it out on him.

"Actually, what I think is that... the old man might not be the owner of the restaurant. It could be some sort of camouflage by the real attacker." He said, taking his seat. I exhaled deeply, tugging at my tie and loosening it.

This person was driving me crazy and I hated it.

"And who do you think it might be?" I asked.

He shrugged. "We have evaluated those pompous Alphas, even went as far as spying on them. There is no Alpha in this area we have not searched. Except for the Alpha King. We have yet to go close to him," He answered.

I shook my head. "No, the Alpha King is out of reach. There is no way he would harm his Luna Queen. He seemed all too loved up with her at the party." I clicked my tongue.

Or could it be true?

No, there was no way. Maybe I needed to meet the Alpha King.

"Set up a meeting with the Alpha King. I have to discuss some things with him." I said, picking up the file once again.

We discussed other things concerning the pack and he left to deal with them. I sat in the office, trying to evaluate the entire issue. Who would dare come to my territory and make a mess of it?

I must not catch this person.

There was something else that was baffling me. The site that had been stubbornly going after Maurene. Initially, she had asked for my help, and I had Grayson attend to her because I was busy with this issue. Now that I think back to it, there was something fishy about the site. I needed to know who was behind this site. At least, even if it was some sort of stupid high school student who was a growing psychopath, I should know. Maybe some lady who was jealous of Maurene.

Maurene has been keeping a low profile since we... separated. From what Grayson had managed to gather about her, she had not made any social media appearance which could only mean that the person was taking advantage of that. I picked up my phone and dialed some developer's numbers I managed to get at the party from fellow businessmen. I knew they would have since they had them to clear out rumors or turn the tables around. It rang for some seconds before a crack sounded through.

"Hi," The feminine voice caught me off guard. I was expecting a deep baritone voice.

"Hello, am I unto Fisher Code?" I asked.

"Yes, you are. Alpha Nathaniel." She replied, taking me by surprise.

Did she know me?

"You know me?" I asked her, suddenly sounding like an idiot.

She chuckled on the other end. "You wish to deal with the rumors spreading about you and your ex-wife, isn't it?" She asked and I could hear a little tilt of her lips in a smirk.

She shouldn't know that. Gosh, my heart was hammering in my chest.

"You..."

"I was expecting you to call since it broke out but anyway, it is all the same now."

"Are you the one behind that site?" I questioned carefully.

She snorted. "I wish I was but I don't make people's lives miserable that way. I save people and make sure their mental health is in place." She replied, her words dripping with sarcasm. "Okay. I want to know who is behind the site." I stated my request.

She scoffed. "If you want to know, you would have to employ the services of some greater security network because that particular site is guarded heavily by codes. I tell you. If you discuss it with other people, they might try to deceive but I will tell you. They cannot do it so have a nice night, Alpha Nathaniel." She didn't wait for me to speak, she disconnected the call and I stuttered in shock.

Really? There was nothing I could do? What did she mean by the site being guarded by codes? Was she trying to say that it was someone influential that was behind it? Definitely, an average person would not have the money to finance a site that was aimed at ruining people.

Gosh. I was going crazy already.

I rose to my feet and exited my office. I walked to the sitting room and saw Amanda who seemed to be mad about something on her phone, at the same time, my phone beeped, and I checked the headline, Liam FERDINAND APPEARS TO BE LOVED UP IN NEW PHOTOS WITH UNKNOWN LADY.

Another beeped, Unknown lady revealed to be his secretary named Maurene Crawley. The phone trembled in my hand as I growled angrily, my chest heaving. That fucker was trying to take what is mine!
