Did Jan Survive In Sophie's Choice の小説・ストーリー

Sophie spat out. She heard the doctor curse under her breath. Then, with a hint of desperation, she said, “Fine, I’ll free you. But I can’t get to you with the smoke still blocking my way.” “It’s okay, just walk right through and you’ll be fine,” Sophie assured her. Doc Jane sucked in a deep breath, her trust wavering but ultimately deciding to believe Sophie’s words. She walked right through the white sparks, and just as Sophie had promised, nothing happened.

THEY WERE BOTH SO DIFFERENT, SHE JUST COULDN'T BRING HERSELF TO CHOOSE. JAMES HAD BEEN THERE FOR HER WHEN SHE WAS AT SOME OF HER LOWEST POINTS. HE HAD SUPPORTED HER AND STOOD BY HER WHEN SHE FELT LIKE GIVING UP ON LIFE ITSELF. A FEW YEARS BACK SHE CONTRACTED COVID AND THOUGHT SHE WAS NOT GOING TO MAKE IT. HE WAS THERE, HE WOULD BRING HER MEDICATIONS. HE CALLED THE DOCTOR TO COME AND EXAMINE HER. HE HIMSELF WOULD HOLD HER TILL SHE FELL ASLEEP DISREGARDING HIS OWN LIFE; SHE HAD NEVER BEEN SO TOUCHED BEFORE.

"The outcome was the same. Your son died. You died. Whether through magical manipulation or genuine neglect, the result was identical." "But it wasn't his choice!" I insisted. "Once I broke Sophia's control, once he understood what was happening—he came back to us. He chose us. He became the father and mate we needed." "Because you intervened," Janice pointed out. "Because you used the knowledge I gave you to change events. But that wasn't our agreement, Lumina. You were supposed to save yourself and Ollie by leaving. Instead, you saved everyone—Xenois, Riley, Lake, even Sophia in your own way by exposing her manipulation. You changed the entire trajectory of multiple lives."

And him. Sophie made to push Cinnia to Denzel but thought better of it. "Oh. Before I forget, Cinnia's life and the life of your child are tied to mine. I'm telling you this in case you get the bright idea to kill me the moment I hand her over to you." That being said, she pushed Cinnia into Denzel's waiting arms. He had originally planned to kill both Sophie and Esther just like he had killed Nanette but this new information made him rethink his decision.

Sophia’s shoulders slumped as she realized that she’d been caught. “I don’t know. I didn’t ask questions,” she choked out. “I-I just took the money. He… he wanted the children in good condition before they were taken. Some… factory or something.” I felt my stomach twist. “Joseph,” I breathed. “He was sent back because he was sick, wasn’t he? Atticus didn’t want him because he wasn’t healthy enough to work.” Sophia nodded miserably, crocodile tears pooling in her eyes. I didn’t feel a shred of pity for her. She knew what she had done. She could have refused the offer, could have said no. But she hadn’t. Because she was greedy.

Sophie Jose listened to her, They were on their second coffee. Paddy was sitting, huddled beside his aunt, humming and singing in a tuneless way under his breath. Obviously, the hearty breakfast had settled him. He was even sliding furtive looks at Jose when he thought the man was not watching him. Now Jose looked at Sophie and asked quietly, ‘Are you sure about this?’ Sophie burst out, furiously. “My sister was killed by that PIG, don’t you see?’ And taking a deep breath, she went on,

“I know it. The same way I know that we’re going to survive the sleepless nights and the chaos and the complete loss of any personal time. Because we’re a team. Because we choose each other. Because we’ve already survived the worst and we’re still standing.” “We’ve survived everything,” he says softly. “And we’ll survive this too.” I pull him close, awkward with my giant belly between us. “Together.” As we walk back to the house, hand in hand, I think about Sophie. About where she is right now. In prison, serving her sentence. Paying for her crimes. And I feel nothing but pity. Because she’ll never know this. This joy. This peace. This overwhelming love that comes from truly choosing someone

At least here, the cruelty wore fangs and showed its teeth. And in the shadows of her cell, Sophie thought of Johnny, his laughter, his last words. The memory of him bit harder than the chains. He was someone she would miss. For now, she lived. Tomorrow, perhaps not. But Sophie had already made peace with death. What haunted her now was the uncertainty of her survival. She had been bitten not just by a wolf, by the Wolf King himself.

I calmly told Sophie but she never met my eyes and only stared at the ground, “if there is another option to save them, to save everyone. We will choose that. But there aren’t that many options. We only have one. We only have one chance and we don’t want to waste it. We might not have this again.” There was only silence between us. Petra only looked at us from her place, safeguarding the children— making sure they won’t wake up. Ezekiel kept quiet throughout the altercation, not even a single word escaped his lips. I don’t know if he agrees to it. I don’t know if even Petra approves of this decision. But I hope so. I hope they would understand the situation that we are in. I hope Sophie sees

Sophie appeared again, settling herself directly across from me as if she was determined to block the air I needed to breathe. “I suggest you stay far away from Darius when he returns,” she said. “At least until we figure out how to clean up the mess you made.” “You are making a case out of nothing,” I replied, already exhausted. “You feel no remorse?” “Sophie, let me breathe. Darius knows it is nothing.” I grabbed a glass of water and swallowed it greedily, hoping it would drown the frustration sitting at the base of my throat. She leaned forward. “Keep your head up, Zima. Has anyone ever told you how their first mate died?”
