The Woman Who Survived Him 소설 & 이야기

“Dance with me, Jim. I want to dance on the grave of this monster in my red dress before the train comes for me.” He chuckled, wondering how much pain medication the dying woman was on. They danced until the end of the song. Wheezing and breathless, she looked up at him with bright, shining eyes. “Thank you, Jim.” And with that she collapsed. He called for an ambulance and watched as they took her away, remembering what her doctor had told him when he had talked to the man about her survival chances. The oncologist merely stated she should have been dead long ago. Jim suspected only her bitterness and need for revenge had kept her alive. He hoped she lived long enough for the trials.

Years. Years of believing she was gone. Years of mourning. Years of silence. And now she was standing there. Alive. Breathing. Speaking. Existing in a world they thought had lost her forever. “…She’s alive.” Her knees almost gave slightly as she reached for the chair behind her, sitting down slowly, her eyes never leaving the screen. “She’s alive…” Her voice broke again a sob slipping through. Her husband exhaled deeply, running a hand over his face. “…She survived.”

She takes a deep breath again and holds my hand. “Everybody died… including you,” She said in almost a whisper. I shook my head because I couldn't believe what I heard. When a scene flashes in my head about the falling bus. I start remembering what happened. “What?” I asked her while looking straight into her eyes. “Yes, Honey, They are all dead and I am lucky because you came back from death” She answered and almost cried because she was happy that I am alive. “All of us?” I asked again “But not anymore… because you are alive… you are the only survivor... God gave you back” She said while crying but she didn’t understand. I don’t want Jayvee dead.

"Ma, I can't just throw her out. Vincent took a bullet meant for me. If he hadn't stepped in, I'd be the one in the ground. He's gone, and Isabella is the only family he left behind. I'm not leaving his widow out there with a target on her back. I'll talk to Sophia when she wakes up." "You know Sophia. She won't see a widow. She'll see another woman in her house." My eyes snapped open. I went still. Then the truth hit me. I was back. Ten years before everything went to hell. None of it had happened yet. This time, I would survive. So would my family. Anna, Lucas's mother, rushed to my bedside. "Sophia, thank God you're awake. Don't worry, I've already made myself clear to Lucas. I won't let

But it seemed that he was not allowed to think and stroll in peace. "She's not." The Alpha's eyes bulged in disbelief. He was looking for anything that would tell him the woman was joking but her expression was as tough and serious as he'd ever seen on an old person. "W-what do you mean she's not?" "She survived. She's alive." The old woman continued with the same expression blanketing her old, haggard face. "Y-you mean Xylia is alive?" His mind was already swirling in thoughts. "Yes, and if you want, your pack can return to its state of wealth and strength as before."

he whispered. “She wasn’t supposed to survive.”

“No, Mother. She’s alive. She’s alive, and she’s coming for all of us.” Evelyn’s face drained of color. “What nonsense are you saying?” she whispered. “I saw her today,” he said through clenched teeth. “With my own eyes. She sat in that damn meeting room — alive, confident, powerful — watching me fall apart. She survived, Mum! The woman you told me to destroy, the one you made me hate — she’s alive!” Evelyn staggered backward, her knees shaking. “No… that’s not possible. She—she can’t be…”

It was clear that he had difficulty telling me. He reached out his hand to hold mine, giving me strength on what he would tell me next. "She didn’t survive,. They had placed her in the morgue." I gasped, and I felt my vision spinning before I felt myself being picked up and sat back down again, enveloped by muscular arms, and a manly scent entered my nose which soothed me instantly.

Is she really fine like the doctor had told him that she was perfectly fine. "Yes. I remembered everything and how my husband and I were involved in that accident. I know also that he is dead but I survived and woke up today because you saved me.."yeh started sobbing. "No please, I don't want you to sob. You should be happy that you have a second chance to live. Many don't have such luck, like your husband. But tell me, who told you that your husband was dead?" Eduardo asked.

She was a mother. And mothers survive.
