Chapter 46

Katniss took a hard slap.

She wasn't ready for it, biting down on the inside of her cheek, blood filling her mouth instantly, and her ears ringing.

Calvin was still yelling, "You got the guts to hit my daughter? You'll regret it. I swear!"

Everyone was shocked, not expecting someone to throw a punch when things had already calmed down.

"Katniss!" Juniper cried out, heartbroken, wanting to protect her.

Ruby, though, smugly pushed her away, keeping her from getting close to Katniss and saying, "Katniss, you had this coming! You slapped me three times, and you still owe me two more!" Calvin snorted, "Katniss, right? If you want to make this go away, you need to let my daughter slap you back twice as hard, or we're not done here!"

Simon, standing nearby, was stunned.

He instinctively wanted to step in, say something for Katniss, after all...

But he quickly steadied himself, looking coldly at her.
