Does Gilbert Blythe Die In The Books

"Repeat that, Bella. Say 'no' again, and I promise you that'll be the last thing you ever say on this earth," Damien Alejandro says, pointing a gun to my head. His icy, cold voice sent shivers down my spine, and somehow, his voice scared me more than the gun pressed to my temple. “I…I…I do," I stammered, the words tasting like bile on my lips. “You may now kiss the bride," the priest announced. --- Isabella is kidnapped on her wedding day and taken to an undisclosed location, where she is forced to marry a stranger, Damien Alejandro, who turns out to be a dangerous Mafia king. He claims her father sold her to him, but there's one problem—she has no father. She promised herself she wouldn't fall for the enemy, but what's a girl to do when a six-foot-three, gorgeous man shows a soft spot for her and can't keep his hands off her?

For three agonizing years, my mother struggled with kidney failure. Finally, after all the waiting and the constant dialysis, she was next in line for a transplant. Hope seemed so close. But then, my husband, Zachary Levi, an esteemed nephrology professor, did the unforgivable. He surreptitiously gave his lover's mother the kidney that was intended for my mother. He said almost dismissively, "Ella's mother couldn't wait any longer. Your mother's been on dialysis for so long, she's not going to die anytime soon." Later, my mother passed away. I called Zachary one final time. Yet, it was a woman who answered. "Margaret, right? Zachary's in the shower. Is there something you need?" I stared at my mother's smile on the gravestone, and an overwhelming emptiness spread through me. "It's nothing. Just wanted to talk about the divorce."

Um das Meervolk vor der Auslöschung zu bewahren, beschloss ich, an Land zu gehen und meinen Sandkastenfreund Cyrus zu verführen, der inzwischen zum Alpha-König aufgestiegen war. Tatsächlich liebte er mich noch immer – drei Tage und drei Nächte verbrachten wir in leidenschaftlicher Ekstase. Kaum war ich aus dem Rausch der Lust erwacht und wollte mich freuen, da übergoss er mich mit ätzender Flüssigkeit. Ich schrie vor Schmerz auf, doch Cyrus lachte nur kalt. „So kann also auch eine unsterbliche Meerjungfrau Schmerzen empfinden?“ „Das ist erst der Anfang. Solange du mir nicht sagst, wo meine Eltern sind, wirst du keinen einzigen ruhigen Tag mehr haben!“ Er war überzeugt, dass das Meervolk für das Verschwinden seiner Eltern verantwortlich war. Von da an musste ich mit ansehen, wie er absichtlich mit seiner Geliebten Emily flirtete; musste die Meerjungfrauen-Perle aus meinem Herzen nehmen, um Emilys Gesundheit zu stärken; musste unter höllischen Schmerzen barfuß tanzen, um Emily in den Schlaf zu wiegen … Er hasste mich bis ins Mark, doch jedes Mal, wenn ich dem Tod nahe war, nahm er mich auch in die Arme und flößte mir Medizin ein. Mal war er grausam: „Glaubst du etwa, ich liebe dich und kann dir deshalb nichts anhaben? Alle quält sie weiter!“ Mal war er sanft: „Sei brav und sag mir – wo sind meine Eltern wirklich?“ Schweigend ertrug ich seine widersprüchliche Liebe. Bald würde ich das Geheimnis über seine Eltern nicht mehr hüten müssen. Denn wenn eine Meerjungfrau drei Jahre an Land bleibt, ohne ins Meer zurückzukehren, wird sie unweigerlich zu Schaum. Bis zu meiner Todesstunde blieben nur noch drei Tage.

Kurz vor Drakes Hochzeit mit seiner wahren Gefährtin starb ich. Zehn Tage zuvor war Aeris, seine frühere große Liebe, zurückgekehrt. Obwohl Abtrünnige mich schwer verletzt hatten, ließ Drake mich im Stich und verbrachte die Nacht bei ihr. Am nächsten Tag kam er zurück – nicht um nach mir zu sehen, sondern um mir mitzuteilen: „Ich löse unser Gefährtenband.“ „Ich wurde vergiftet – mit Eisenhut.“ „Schon wieder deine Lügen. Egal – heute verstoße ich dich.“ Er ahnte nicht, dass seine Zurückweisung meinen Tod beschleunigen würde. Ich dachte, ohne mich als Hindernis könnte er endlich glücklich werden. Doch dann geschah das Unerwartete: Er verließ seine Braut noch am Altar, rannte zu meinem Grab und weinte. „Lyra, du bist meine Frau. Ich verbiete dir zu sterben!“

On the eve of giving birth, my world turned into a nightmare. My husband’s sworn enemy broke into our home, seeking revenge. I was brutally cut open and my baby was ripped from me. Yet, I made the chilling choice not to call my husband for help. In my previous life, desperate and terrified, I begged him to return home. He abandoned a Valentine’s dinner with a scholarship student to rush back. That night, the student was preyed upon in a bar, leading to her tragic suicide. My husband’s wrath was unrelenting. Blaming me for her death, he locked me in a kennel, leaving me to be savaged to death. “This is the pain Wynne endured because of you. Now it’s your turn to suffer!” Given a second chance, I resolved to make a different choice. This time, I let him stay for his romantic Valentine’s evening with her. But when I returned home, he had spiraled into madness.

Bei einem Ausflug in den Vergnügungspark brachte mein Beta-Freund Drew plötzlich eine Frau mit ihrer kleinen Tochter mit. Im Auto fehlte zufällig genau ein Sitzplatz. Drew bat mich auszusteigen und den Platz den beiden zu überlassen. Er sagte: „Laura hat es mit dem Kind nicht leicht. Sie sollen erstmal fahren, ich hole dich später ab.“ Ruhig stieg ich aus und sah zu, wie das Auto langsam den Parkplatz verließ. Drei Stunden später kamen sie im Vergnügungspark an und nahmen an der abendlichen Feuerwerksveranstaltung teil. Als meine beste Freundin Drew fragte, warum er mich noch nicht abgeholt habe, half er gerade geduldig Laura, eine übergroße Feuerwerksbatterie zu entzünden. Er war nicht im Geringsten beunruhigt und sagte: „Es ist kein Problem, Sienna später abzuholen. Sie nimmt das nicht krumm. Ich werde sie schon beschwichtigen, dann ist sie auch nicht mehr sauer.“ Wütend wird man nur auf Menschen, die einem etwas bedeuten. Dass mein Vater, meine Mutter und mein Bruder sich nie um mich scherten, habe ich noch hingenommen. Aber dass sich jetzt auch Drew nicht mehr für mich interessierte... Darum ist es Zeit, für immer zu gehen.
