All Chapters of I Lost My Mind After His Betrayal: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"No… This can't be happening…" I murmured.I snatched the phone from the man's hand, wishing I could dive straight into the screen to see for myself.My fingers were shaking, and my wolf let out a guttural snarl.How was this possible?There wouldn't be such coincidences in this world.But the footage didn't lie. The bare-chested man on the screen, muscles taut and back covered in old scars, was Reynolds Mitchell.We belonged to the same pack and had grown up together. After all these years, there was no way I could misidentify my own mate.Especially since our marking ceremony was scheduled for next month.At this thought, my eyes welled up, and a cold, hollow ache settled in my chest.Reynolds had betrayed me."Bit of an overreaction, don't you think? First time seeing a show like this?"The handsome man beside me sneered. Resting his chin in his hand, he watched me like this was some kind of entertaining spectacle.He wasn't entirely wrong.This was certainly the first

After stepping out of the car, Cade didn't head straight inside. Instead, he stood by the door and made a call."Hey, honey. I'm almost home. Are you happy?"The voice on the other end was pure panic. "C-Cade? Why are you back early? I thought you weren't coming until next week.""Change of plans," he said, his tone lazy. "What's the matter? Not happy to see me?""Of course, I am! When will you be here? I'll open the door for you.""Soon. By the way, what are you doing? You sound a little out of breath.""Oh, I-I'm on the treadmill. Yeah, just running.""I see. Well, I'm pulling up. Get the door."With that, Cade hung up.I looked at him. "You have the door code. Why not just go in?""What's the rush?"He arched an eyebrow, looking far too entertained. "Look, they're losing their minds."He tilted the screen toward me.On it, the cheating couple was scrambling to get dressed and gather their things, completely flustered.I watched Reynolds tumble off the bed, stark naked,

"Cade, are you out of your mind?"The moment I snapped out of it, I swung the club toward him."What the hell are you doing streaming this? Did I give you permission? Do you have any idea what a privacy violation this is?"Cade immediately threw his hands up and backed away. "Easy now. Don't go friendly-firing your allies.""Who said we're allies?""Fine, fine. Not allies. Just… fellow victims of infidelity.""Say that again. I dare you."He had enough sense to shut his mouth.My head was pounding with rage, but a second later, I had to admit his description was spot on.I'd been cheated on, and I'd caught them red-handed with enough evidence to sink a ship.Reynolds was still on the floor, a dark crimson stain spreading beneath his pants.Alia sat nearby, clutching her face and sobbing hysterically.Standing in the middle of the carnage, I suddenly felt a wave of numbness wash over me.Whatever.He cheated. It happened. The damage was done, and it couldn't possibly get a

When I thought about it, I couldn't put all the blame on everyone else. I was the one who insisted on being with Reynolds in the first place.We grew up together. I had loved him for as long as I could remember.At first, Mom and Dad were dead set against it. They thought Reynolds came from a bad background and wasn't a good match for me.I was the most beautiful she-wolf in the pack, and Dad held a position of real power on the Elders' Council.Reynolds, by contrast, was just an average werewolf.But he had been so good to me over the years, and our families were close enough that the relationship eventually gained a silent acceptance.He'd been raised by a single mother in a complicated household. When his father cheated, his mother couldn't handle the betrayal and took her own life.This event left him deeply traumatized. He spent years avoiding intimacy and claiming he didn't believe in fated mates until he met me.Reynolds told me that I was the only person who made him fe

Reynolds looked deathly pale. His voice was barely a thready whisper as he said, "It's not what you think with Alia."I almost laughed out loud. "Not what I think? Reynolds, I saw it with my own eyes. What possible explanation could you have?"He pressed his lips together, as if summoning all his resolve."I admit, I wasn't in my right mind. She kept tempting me, telling me that we weren't officially marked yet and I didn't have to take responsibility… I just lost control."I stood by the bed, my stomach churning more with every word.He sounded so entitled, as if this were just a minor lapse in judgment rather than a devastating betrayal.To him, it was just a minor mistake."So?" I cut him off. "Are you trying to tell me you still love me and she was just a she-wolf you slept with in a moment of weakness?"Reynolds looked away, his silence a deafening confession.At that moment, I genuinely wanted to stab him again.My voice was as cold as a winter grave as I asked, "Reynol
