When Does John Die In Peaky Blinders Novels & Stories

“That's what you meant! I'm such an idiot! I forgot you weren't here, so you had no idea what happened. When you asked how, I thought you were talking about the beginning, and why I never came to you in the hospital. Honey, John's dead. He died a few months ago. An Alpha named Aldrich killed him. Aldrich was trying to kill me, and he would have, but John stepped in front of me. The knife pierced his heart before going through my chest. His body pushed the blade to the right just enough to save me.” I helped a hand over my mouth as he spoke. I was shocked, I couldn't believe John was dead. No wonder he's been spending so much time with me, and not with John.

“ What are you here? “ She almost hissed. “ Shouldn’t I ask you that? What were you thinking coming here? “ John asked. One could see the worry written on his face. Seeing as both of them were distracted, Liam stylishly dipped his right into his back belt, slipping out a gun. He made to shoot Blink but she saw him on time and sent a bullet into his forehead and he dropped dead. “ You left me with no choice” She muttered throwing the gun she was holding away. She made to move but a sharp pain ran through her leg making her miss her step. John caught her right on time and their gaze locked. Blink quickly looked away.

I could tell from up here that something broke again. Perfect. A voice crackled from the phone I had grabbed from his pocket. "911, what's your emergency?" I put it to my ear letting my voice shake with urgent panic. "I think me and my friends are going to die!" I gave them John's name and location, then dropped the phone and stepped away from the window. Time to wrap things up. *** Outside the library, I found John whimpering in a crumpled heap. Tears and snot ran down his face. His body twitched in pain, legs splayed at an unnatural angle.

Jamie stepped closer and jolted his head down to my ear, causing me to shiver. "Just one more thing," he whispered, his lips forming a veiled smile. "He is dead..." My stomach turned upside down, and my throat ran dry. Is that what Levi wanted to tell me? Was Beta John one of the fallen protecting the pack? Jamie turned around and stepped away from me; he seemed excited. He abruptly turned his head back, looking over his shoulder at me. "And I had the privilege of sinking my canines in his throat and killing him..." he said, smiling widely. "I watched the light in his eyes dim."

Everyone looked sad and it was clear that something had happened. "What is going on here?" Beta John was the first to ask, confusion sweeping over him. "Beta, it is your wife." "My wife? What about her?" "She is dead. She poisoned herself." They explained. All their eyes widened. John pushed through everyone and rushed inside. She was dead and she had left a note. I am sorry. I don't deserve your forgiveness. John held her in his arms and cried. Pain and hatred swept through him. He cried so bitterly, and when he did, his eyes were fixed on the man who had caused them so much pain.

“She’s not guilty. John was told to do it by someone. Strange enough, he died in Inklit hospital, one owned by the Paine family.” “Are you saying that the Paine family is behind this, Brother?” “Someone must have made a phone call to Desmond and had John killed,” Adrian said. “Are you suggesting that I or your dad did it?” Iva asked coldly. “I never said that, but someone told John to do it,” Adrian said. “That’s what I firmly believe.” “That’s a nice story you cooked up to save your fiancee,” Iva hissed. “I can’t believe you are actually taking her side even after seeing how she tried to cheat on you. I’m disappointed in you, Adrian. I’m very disappointed.”

He started crawling on the floor with his injured knees. "Absolutely not! John, you need to die." I emptied my remaining two bullets in his head. His head practically exploded sending blood flying in the air. I bent over, held his legs and dragged him behind me. The glass window was already broken, I swung his dead body and threw it out. "Have a nice good night's sleep , John." I walked out of there and waited for the elevator to open. I wonder if someone used the elevator to run away. And then suddenly the doors of the elevator opened and I sighed.

They appeared, raising their hands and walking past Pavel, who kept one arm around Elisabeth's waist with the gun pointed at them, while the other hand held the knife to her neck. “Stand by your major, little soldiers,” he said with irony. “Disarm and throw your weapons here; are you all here? Where's the one who was hiding under the car?” “Where is John?” Robert looked at me curiously. I lowered my head, shaking it. “No!” “The grenade got him...” I murmured, gritting my teeth. “Really?” Pavel looked suspicious, pulling Lis back with him, looking at John's lifeless body on the charred ground. “Barbecued.”

KATELYN'S POV ♡♡♡ "Seriously? I just found out now. I don't follow him on I*******m or F******k anyway," Aimee said as we sat at the back of the classroom. We had a meeting this afternoon, and while waiting for others to arrive, we discussed the news about John. "They created a group chat for our batch's alumni celebration, and someone mentioned that John passed away just six days ago," I replied to her. Aimee rolled her eyes and said, "He deserved it."
