After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 13

Katniss was fuming, running into a total moron first thing in the morning!

She balled up her fists, her eyes going icy as she fought the urge to deck him. She yelled, "Why? I already said, I could do whatever I want with the spot. Even my family can't influence my decision, so who the hell do you think you are?" All that sweet and obedient act? Total BS. Thinking about it, Desmond's anger just skyrocketed.

Katniss laughed, "Wow, you're really pulling out all the stops for Clara, huh?"

She used to be all about Desmond, just wanting him to be happy. No matter how crazy his demands were, as long as he was happy, she was down.

But now? Katniss didn't have any love left; she was ready to fight back whenever.

Desmond's face turned beet red with anger, but he couldn't say a word, just stood there like a deer in headlights.

Katniss yanked her hand away from Desmond, pointing with her swollen hand, and snapped, "Don't mess with me, or next time I won't be so nice."

"Fine, you chose this path, don't come crying later!" Desmond spat out, furious.
