SUMMARY:
Exemplary Capitol citizen Gala Montelago has achieved what many her age can only dream of: 22 years old and already a fully trained trustee, in charge of coordinating the publicity efforts and the image of none other than Capitol darling Finnick Odair.
She drafts his speeches, writes press releases, fixes dates for interviews and creates his day-to-day schedules.
The job keeps her busy. It's better that way... no time left to question her guilty conscience.
That is model citizen Gala Montelago's biggest secret: she knows where her loyalties should lie, but her heart won't quite accept what her mind has already decided.
❝we all eat lies when our hearts are hungry❞
But times are changing. The people are angry and they've grown tired of their suffering. Unrest spreads in Panem and with it, Gala's own doubts are fueled.
And when she is asked for support, she can't help but follow her heart for the first time in her life. And now, having strayed from the „right path", Gala takes her life into her own hands.
She chooses to walk the path less trodden. A path that no one wanted to choose, that no one had noticed before, that no one considered important. A path which, to her own surprise, leads her directly into the arms of the notorious and charming Finnick Odair.

a/n: Just so you know, the job of trustee is something I came up with. In this story, the trustee takes over some of the duties of the escort, who in turn plays a much more representative role than was the case in the books.
I hope you'll enjoy reading this book! Have fun and you are more than welcome to leave me some comments to let me know how you like the story and the idea. 3
I started this new story because I needed a short break from my previous story. I had some kind of writer's block and this new project helped me to get out of it. I hope to continue writing Perks of being a Hufflepuff in the next few weeks.
