Mature

Hidden beneath masks and glamours too intricate to unravel, the Sterling Nightingale's self bestowed mission is to smuggle prisoners out of the Capitol to District 13, much to President Snow's fury. He hunts the spy endlessly, only to be continuously outwitted. The reason? He is not looking in the right places. Silver Lamprey Cornelius is not your standard Victor, after all.
    
    Finnick has always seen Sil as a brainless fop with nothing but air floating around in her head. For a fellow Victor, she certainly doesn't act the part. He's never given her the time of day, until his fate gets entwined with hers and their President seems to think that it would be a good idea to change all of that. Almost overnight, Finnick and Sil go from being complete strangers to being wildly in love. Of course Finnick doesn't actually love her. He could never fall for an idiot like her...
    
    ...until he does, and suddenly he realizes that Silver Lamprey Cornelius is not the woman he always saw her as. She is so much more.
    
    Fate is a strange mistress, and it seems that he is about to be swept up in its storm.
