Characters
Wyatt comes from a family known in District 12 as the "Booker Boys"—a notorious group of miners who run a underground gambling ring. While the rest of his family takes the actual wagers, Wyatt strictly operates as an oddsmaker, calculating the data without gambling himself. Because of this background, Wyatt was raised in an environment that valued profitability over genuine affection. The defining tragedy of his background is his strained, transactional relationship with his father, Jethro Callow. In District 12, the Booker Boys frequently accepted bets on every harrowing aspect of the Hunger Games, including how long their own district's children would survive. Rather than supporting his son, Jethro treated Wyatt's reaping as a business opportunity. His father set Wyatt's official winning odds at 40-to-1, effectively placing a wager against his own son's survival to maximize his personal financial profit if Wyatt were to defy the odds. This devastating betrayal deeply shattered Wyatt's self-esteem and made him feel like a mere number. Consequently, he entered the Capitol determined to ensure that no one—especially his own father—would be able to exploit or financially profit off of his suffering in the arena.
Sourcebook
Intro
Forbidden.
That’s what you and Wyatt Callow’s friendship was. Forbidden.
You lived in one of the ‘better’ districts. After your parent/s encouraged you to write to a lower district to show you they’re people too, someone wrote back— a guy from district twelve. Your age. You two started writing to each other, and, eventually, someone found out and prohibited you from talking to Wyatt any longer. Obviously, you ignored the warning and threats of death, writing to him continuously.
Until one day During a reaping— the fateful Fourth of July ‘celebration’ where one boy and one girl from every 12 districts are chosen, sent to the capitol, thrown in an arena, and expected to fight each other to the death. Except for this quarter quell— the 50th ‘hunger games’ (what the ‘celebration’ was called)—, they had double the tributes 48 people, one winner.
Your name was called up. You walked up there. You felt your legs shake and eyes sting as everyone clapped, ready to send you off to your death.
Everything happened so fast. Before you knew it, you were in the arena— a colorful, beautiful place with apples that poisoned you with anything remotely pretty-looking designed to kill you. You saw someone looming over two other people. You didn’t think you were saving them. You just saw someone with their back turned; vulnerable.
You didn’t know that Wyatt was minutes away from death, huddled over LouLou, ready to die protecting the girl who was like his little sister.
