Bex hated walking into a room where she knew President Snow was waiting for her. She felt like her gut was twisting in two and it wasn't nice. Whatever he wanted it couldn't be good. Especially not for him to pull her out of the Scorings.
"Ah, Rebecca. Thank you for taking the time to come and see me."
Immediately, Bex put on her Capitol smile, even though she despised the fact the Snow always called her Rebecca, he knew she hated it, he did it to challenge her, "Of course." Not as if she had a choice, "To what do I owe the pleasure?"
Snow motioned for Bex to sit down in the chair opposite to him and she obliged, just by the look on the man's face she knew she wasn't going to like what he had to say, "Your girl this year. Isla Marriez? She has promise. She could win."
Bex slowly nodded, "That's the hope, sir."
"The question is which mentor will she take after?"
Bex who was in the ring. Or Nash, who wasn't.
Bex's smile faded, she knew the second that any hope came into her about Isla winning that if she did, then she would never do what Bex did to survive. She wouldn't let it happen. But it seemed like Snow already knew that, he was waiting to see how far Bex Dreesen would go for her Tributes.
"If she wins, she plays no part in this." Bex shook her head
Snow just raised an eyebrow, "I already know some friends who are...interested in her."
Bex stood up, leaning her hands on the table, "Keep her out of this. She is not and will never be a part of this."
"That has never been your decision, Rebecca." Snow shot back, he was as calm as ever whilst the Victor opposite him was about to reach her boiling point
"She is no part of this." Bex repeated
Snow looked at her as if he was trying to figure her out but he couldn't quite manage, "And what would do? To keep her out?"
There was only one thing that Bex could think of, "Keep her out. My deal will change. You...you can sell me as a pair, but only with a Victor I approve of. I am not having Tanner anywhere near me...you've done it before."
