Why Does Elphaba Fake Her Death Novels & Stories

He sighed as the memory faded away. And as for Gwen he was surprised that Jonas didn't tell her the truth before he died at least it will save him a lot of stress in telling the two girls who they truly are. To tell both girls how their mother and father had protected them by hiding them in places no one would look for them. Jonas and him had promised the Elf King, who was a god, to protect and hide his daughters before he was killed by Dean which made the remaining elves and dwarfs that had survived the war went into hiding. No one knew how Edgardo was able to convince Sarah and Dean to his side. The elf's were powerful magical creatures and in exchange for their help in protecting his chi

Finn breaks off, his voice slicing through the tension, "because I never died." The room falls quiet. I fix Finn, my brain trying to put the bits together. "You... what?," asked. He laughs, but there is no comedy about it. "You believe I passed away? You believed I would let a minor annoyance stop me?" "No," I murmur, a frigid terror filling my chest. "No, this doesn't not make sense." Finn only grins, though, with dark eyes. "Elara, it's straightforward. I staged my death. I am now back as well.

In his opinion, this was a great opportunity. The elf queen smirked smugly at Philip’s eagerness to die. This was exactly the effect she wanted. “No problem. All of you may enter. You can name your request if you can return alive, and I won’t turn you down.” The elf queen felt that Philip had totally fallen for her trick. Once they entered the cave, they would die for sure. The other elves looked at Philip warily. All hope was lost. They could only rely on their own strength to drive out these hateful humans.

“He was the one who delivered the ‘final’ blow. Perhaps it wasn’t as final as we thought.” Knowing the conflict between our Houses, I stiffened at the mere thought of the Crawfords and my mouth drew into a thin line. I lifted my eyes and met Flynn’s gaze. Right. I had thought the same. It was a plot. But why would Jack Elrod want to fake his own death? How would it have benefited him to disappear and pretend that he’d lost his life in the battle? “Now you’re starting to believe me?” Leila said to her brother, lifting her chin proudly, her expression hopeful at us accepting her knowledge of magic.

Now, even in death, he had someone delivering instructions: terminate the child. Tears splashed onto the note, smudging each word. My mother held me from the side, her eyes red too. “Zoe, don’t do this… there’s still someone in your belly...” “Mom, I want to be alone for a while.” The hallway fell silent. I leaned against the wall, slowly sinking to the floor, burying my face in my knees. Then I heard a childish voice, eerily calm for its age. “Mom, stop crying. Dad isn’t dead at all.”

"But it doesn't matter. That little bastard won't be wearing them anyway. Keeping them is bad luck. I got rid of them for you; you should thank me." I stared at her, my nails digging deep into my palms. "You're faking it." "Is this your first day realizing that?" Isabella laughed, trembling with mirth. "Only a moron like Lucas believes I have the IQ of a five-year-old. But thanks to you being so stupid and swallowing everything, I got to play this game for so long." She stepped closer, lowering her voice. "How did the Wolfsbane taste?" "Too bad you didn't die. But I'm so happy that bastard in your belly is dead."

"Is this enough? I can get more. I'd rather the money come to me than go to the mistress." I counted the zeros. More than 150 million. Well, that was screw-you money, certainly. "More than enough. Alright, here's the plan. We can…" … We came up with the perfect plan and decided to fake our deaths. The date? My sister-in-law's birthday. The one to push the blame to? My husband's mistress, Lorelei. Oh, some people might call me cruel, but you should've seen the message she sent me. I'd love to make sure she gets a life sentence.

It was said without self-pity, just observation and somehow that made it worse. "I have one more term," Elara said. "Non-negotiable." "I'm listening." "My mother can't know this is fake. She's been through enough. She needs to believe I'm happy. That I found someone who…" Her voice caught. "She needs to believe in something good before she dies." Lucien studied her. "That's why you're saying yes. Not the money. The story." "The money saves her life. The story makes that life worth living." Elara met his eyes. "Can you do that? Can you convince a dying woman that you care about her daughter?"

A sharp, vicious thought struck my mind like a whip. “Gage,” I said, turning my head slowly to face him. “What do you say about faking a war?” Gage stopped mid-stride. He looked at me, his eyebrows snapping together in total surprise. Then, very slowly, his lips pulled back into a wicked, dangerous smile. “To lure the witch out, you mean?” Elia asked. She leaned forward, her eyes darting back and forth between Gage and me. I gave her a firm nod. “Yes. Let us create a fake war. We lure her right out into the open, and then we kill her and the mage in one swift strike.”

"You're being foolish, Mr. Finley! This is the 9,999th evil woman who did plastic surgery to trick you! I'll tear her disguise off right now!" The maid then lunged toward me and tried to pull my hair off my scalp. Ignoring his own pain, Arthur hastily climbed off the bed and stood in front of me. His brows knitted together as he scolded, "Who said you could touch her? Do you really think that I can't recognize my mother?" The maid pursed her lips. "Mrs. Finley passed away six years ago, Mr. Finley. How could she be her?" "Shut up! Mommy didn't die! That person personally told me that Mommy is a strategist. She had to play the role of his first love, which was why she intentionally faked her
