Prologue

Lottie's POV

"PEETA!" I hear mom scream.

"Uncle Haymitch!" I whimper.

"It's okay, Lottie." Uncle Haymitch whispers.

We sit like this who knows how long, until daddy walks down the stairs carrying a bundle, a smile on his tired face.

"Lottie, meet your new brother, Nicholas." He whispers.
