How do family blackmail stories usually end?

In some cases, family revenge stories end with a form of justice being served. Maybe through legal means if the wrongdoings were illegal. For instance, if a family member was embezzling from the family business, and the victim took revenge by reporting it and getting the embezzler punished. But this 'justice' doesn't always bring back the harmony in the family and there are often long - lasting scars.

Some love stories end in a more bittersweet way. The couple may part ways, but they have grown and learned from the relationship. They might still have love for each other, but they realize that they are better off apart for various reasons, such as different life goals or personal growth directions.

They often end happily, with the couple getting together. For example, in many classic romances, the two lovers overcome all the difficulties and start a new life together.

Well, dystopian stories often end with some sort of hope or change for the better. Maybe a group of characters manages to overthrow the oppressive system or find a way to restore balance.

Typically, Gothic stories conclude with elements of darkness prevailing. Maybe the villain escapes justice or the protagonist succumbs to the forces of evil. It's all about leaving the reader with a lingering sense of dread.

Well, many survival fiction stories end with a sense of hope or renewal. In 'I Am Legend', although the main character sacrifices himself, his actions lead to the possible salvation of humanity. In 'Lord of the Flies', the boys are rescued, which is a form of survival from the chaos they had created on the island. Also, in 'Hatchet', the boy is eventually rescued after learning so much about survival in the wilderness, and he has a new - found confidence and strength that he didn't have before.

Courtship love stories can end in different ways. Some end happily, like when the couple gets married and lives happily ever after, such as in the story of Cinderella and her prince. Others may end sadly, for example, if one of the lovers dies during the courtship or if external factors like family disapproval can't be overcome. Just like in 'Romeo and Juliet' where they both die because of their families' feud.

Often, they end with the hero or the group of protagonists achieving their goal. For instance, if they were trying to stop the unjust use of the guillotine, they succeed in overthrowing the tyrannical regime that uses it. So, the guillotine is either destroyed or turned into a symbol of the past.

Cursed love stories can also end with the destruction of the lovers themselves. In 'Romeo and Juliet', they both took their own lives rather than live without each other. Their love was so strong but the curse of their families' enmity was too much to overcome. And in some cases, like 'Wuthering Heights', the curse extends beyond the lovers' lifetimes and affects future generations with pain and suffering.

Often they end in tragedy. For example, in 'Romeo and Juliet', which has elements of a dark love story, they both die. Their love is doomed by the feud between their families.
