Written for Wattpad Fanfic's Alternate Universe Contest [21.01.15] What if Peeta never professed his love for Katniss? What if he joined the Careers purely because he wanted to? Because they gave him a greater chance of getting home himself? When Peeta returns to the clearing of the Tracker Jacker nest and sees Katniss still wrestling the bow from Glimmer's grip, instead of seeing it as a chance to save her, he sees it as a chance to kill her with the help of his new friend Cato. She flees with the two opponents hot on her heels. Will they find her, or will she live to see another day in the arena? Disclaimer: I do not own the Hunger Games.
