❝all my wolves begin to howl. wake me up, the time is now.❞
raised away from family for most of their lives, the career trainees of district two have known little beyond the deadly slash of a blade into a man's jugular. the same doesn't entirely rin...
"remember, those people out there—they're all wolves in sheep's clothing. in a den full of wolves, you must be the worst of them all."
while every eleven-year-old awaits their dreaded twelvth birthday with a sense of impending doom that is very much real, for the career trainees of district two, this is their time to shine.
academy prodigy park jisung is the candidate best pegged to win the hunger games, but he is but an emotional child forced to wield knives too soon. amongst those who all want to kill him, he has to make a fatal choice between the people he (secretly) cares for and going home in wild fanfare to his mother.
the seed of hate and insurgence has been planted in panem, and it's up to jisung and his newfound allies to grow with it or get trampled by its roots, all the while battling for their lives in a man-made hell. even if it means taking the hand of the infuriating district twelve tribute with the wolf eyes.
FEATURING!
park jisung, all the other dreamies, other (mostly) sm idols (lee taeyong, bae joohyun, kim taeyeon just to name a few), some original characters from the hunger games series, a ton of original characters very loosely based off people i know because this story is my baby.
NOTE!
HUNGER GAMES ALTERNATE UNIVERSE, VIOLENCE AND DEATH, ENEMIES TO LOVERS IF YOU SQUINT, ALLIANCES AND BETRAYALS, REBELLION, AN UNHOLY AMOUNT OF ANGST, YES I WENT ALL OUT WITH THIS ONE.
yes i am back with a new book like the awful person i am, but this was sitting in my basement for so long and my finger slipped, so please take angsty park jisung navigating panem with tooth and claw. the hunger games universe is one of my favourites so i really do hope you enjoy this late new year present!
i've plucked the lore of this book from the movies/books and headcanon posts, so i'm sorry if you see a weird fusion of stuff to make a coherent lore point. but you don't need any extensive prior knowledge of the series to read this! simply knowing what the hunger games is is enough. i hope everything is pretty clear in the book (if not, feel free to shout at me).
for plot's sake, jisung's the only 17 year old out of the featured dreamies, and the rest are 18 save for mark, who's 20. happy reading ^v^
