"You don't play with fire,
unless you wanna get burned,
wanna get burned."
-Grace Vanderwaal.
Ataraxia Blake has absolutely no one left. nobody she cares about. when young Lilliana get reaped for the 68th Hunger games, Ataraxia feels as if she should go instead. Not a little girl.
Finnick Odair has taught himself, countless times, not to get close to his tributes as they often come back dead as a doornail, but how could he not? Finnick found himself entranced in her skill and beauty. Ataraxia Blake was different.
She was a surviver.
Friends are made, Enemies are made. Some people make it out alive. Some people get lost in the crossfire.
"Youve got fire." Finnick commented as he dangled her father's ring out of her reach. Ataraxia was about to give up and find it later when Finnick said "Oh, Come on Roxi, didn't mommy teach you to never give up?" Ataraxia stopped in her tracks and looked him dead in the eye before grabbing his arm, twisting it behind his back, and stood behind him, her breath on his neck
She tsked her tongue and said "Odair. I honestly thought you knew better." She got closer. "You don't fuck with fire. You're going to get burned." She then took the ring, and walked away, leaving him in shock.
"Oh, little boy, you never learned,
you don't play with fire,
but your already burned,
your already burned."
Aria Mitchell, victor of Panem's 70th Hunger Games, wanted it all to end; the pain, the nightmares, the exhaustion of living in hell under the devil- President Snow himself.
Capitol darling Finnick Odair comes stumbling into her life, allowing Aria to no longer feel alone whilst he stands by her side- facing their pasts together.
Finnick and Aria have suffered under Snow for years. But when a rebellion is on the horizon and a band of former victors threaten what he's built, Snow hits his last nerve.
What happens when Aria is reaped from the existing pool of victors to represent District 4 in the Quarter Quell alongside Finnick?
Will it be enough for her to figure out what Finnick really means to her and to what extent she will go to keep him alive?
