"Was she alive, dead, a ghost who haunted the wilderness?

Perhaps no one would ever really know."
~Suzanne Collins. 


After Lucy Gray Baird leaves the safety of District 12 behind to live the rest of her remaining days out in the wilderness, the victor of the tenth Hunger Games is almost unrecognisable. When her lover Coriolanus Snow attempts to kill her, she is left with her life hanging by a thread.

Now, Lucy Gray must decide whether to keep travelling North or go back and face the District she is no longer part of.

Whichever path Lucy Gray chooses, secrets will be uncovered, enemies will be revealed and danger will lie ahead.  

In this post-apocalyptic world, everything is at stake. 

If you're a fan of The Hunger Games, dystopian, science fiction and adventure genres, this is the perfect award-winning novel for you!


All characters, settings, names and original ideas belong to Suzanne Collins and I take no credit for her work. 

This is my own what if based on The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

what if Lucy Gray had survived? what if Lucy Gray ended up pregnant and raised the child alone in the woods? Part 1: Lucy Gray is met with a difficult decision to go back to district 12 to get her daughter medical attention only to be caught by the man who so desperately wanted her gone. Lumi is a child who completely erases everything that defines who she is just to fit it. To make her father proud, although she might seem like a confident lady on the outside she's vulnerable to any manipulation and has her own insecurities and doubts about herself. Part 2: In the new era of the next four years, Lumi finds herself thrust into the role of a mentor, navigating the complex dynamics of the Hunger Games while grappling with personal challenges and evolving relationships. As she mentors her assigned tribute, Lumi confronts the harsh realities of the Capitol's oppressive regime and the moral dilemmas inherent in her position of privilege. Despite her initial misgivings, Lumi is determined to forge genuine connections with her tribute, offering him guidance and support amidst the brutality of the arena. Alongside her mentoring duties, Lumi contends with family dynamics, romantic entanglements, and the lingering shadows of her past, all while striving to uphold her principles and protect those she holds dear. Through adversity and sacrifice, Lumi embarks on a journey of self-discovery, challenging the status quo and shaping the course of her own destiny in a world fraught with uncertainty and peril.

𝗜𝗡 𝗪𝗛𝗜𝗖𝗛 𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗡 𝗖𝗢𝗟𝗟𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗦 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗦𝗡𝗢𝗪 ──────────── Coriolanus Snow is a cold and conniving individual, Valentina Hartwick is subtle and cunning. The pair would never admit how similar they were, to one another they were extremely different. In fact, they'd both prefer to have no interaction with the other but their mutual friend - Sejanus Plinth - would make that increasingly difficult. Both perfect in the eyes of the Capitol, every step they take being a calculated manoeuvre... until snow began to fall with a pour of rain. ──────────── Rated mature: Violence, death, addiction, mental health, mature language and sexual themes.

Lucy Gray: a name that slowly faded from the Capitol & district's minds. Her Games, a secret, her lover, betrayed, her home, unwelcoming. Coriolanus Snow was the last person to have seen her, and he believed her dead. However, the odds were in her favor.
