VIVIENNE CREST was born for the Hunger Games. Raised in the wealth and luxury of District 1, she had spent her life training to be the Capitol's perfect tribute-strong, ruthless, and unstoppable. When the 2nd Quarter Quell calls her name, she steps forward without fear, ready to claim the victory she was promised. But then, the unthinkable happens. HAYMITCH ABERNATHY, a boy from District 12 who never planned to be a tribute, is reaped alongside her. He has no weapons, no sponsors, no strategy-just sharp wit and an even sharper defiance that infuriates and intrigues her in equal measure. The Capitol expects him to die quickly, just another forgotten name in the bloodstained meadow. Only, he refuses. As the arena twists around them, rules shatter, alliances break, and survival is no longer about strength alone. The Capitol's grip tightens, forcing Vivienne to make an impossible choice-one that will change everything she thought she knew about victory, loyalty, and herself. Because winning the Games was always the goal. She never expected to question if she wanted to win at all. And she never expected Haymitch Abernathy. --- haymitch abernathy x oc cover made by me !! ©️ 2025
