Hunger Games Berries Novels & Stories

I screeched, running towards him and knocking it out of his hand before he could stuff his face further. “What’s your problem?” he yelled, his nostrils flaring in anger. “I’m starving!” “I’m hungry too, but you didn’t even check to see what type of berry it was!” “It’s a blueberry!” “But how did you know that? You didn’t even take the time to study it, you just plucked it off the bush and shoved it in your mouth. What if it was poisonous?” His eyes widened and a look of fear crossed his face. He clutched his throat with both hands, and his face turned red as though he couldn’t breathe. My hands began to tremble as a wave of panic hit me.

My stomach hurts from hunger, but I don't feel like eating yet, I just keep lying next to my stuff reading and waiting for my boss. I'm halfway through the book when the front door makes a noise and I haven't even gotten off the couch yet when two people enter the house and the three of us stay still, looking at each other uncomfortably. "What are you doing here?" asks Jessy, Alessandro's sister, but I still can't move because my eyes are on the omega next to her. The same one who was here with Alessandro last time. The omega who fucked him. Aida. "You're Ale's assistant, aren't you?" she asks with a smile and when she finishes walking in, she leaves a suitcase of an extremely expensive bran

In a few minutes, we left the cave and moved away from the faint outline of the moon above the pond. About an hour later, we were back at the foot of the Blue Fangs and found ourselves surrounded by shrubs. Rum moved towards a tree, the shape of a lollipop, and reached his hand into the dense cloud of leaves. After some ruffling sounds, his hand emerged with a vine of green berries. ‘What’s that?’ I asked. He swallowed and replied, ‘Pea berries.’ He handed me a small bunch. I took one drop and observed it between my fingers. ‘They look like emeralds.’

I resolved to eat something, however small—only so as not to die again—and walked out into the garden. The bushes were full of berries this time of year. I picked handfuls of blueberries, popping them into my mouth without washing them, then dug into the carrot patch. It was a bit early in the year for those, but I harvested some baby rainbow carrots, admittedly a little impressed with Serena’s gardening skills despite never having touched dirt in her entire life, then headed back in. I found some herbs on the shelves that sounded appetizing. Rosemary. Oregano. Black pepper. I added them all to a pot with water and the carrots, then put it over the fire to simmer and waited.

He looks around and Merlin grins. “Take what you want, it’ll grow back before long.” Kai nods and walks down the lit path until he sees some blueberry bushes, the berries were huge and perfect, not a blemish on them. He lifts his t-shirt to form a pouch to be able to carry them and picks enough for the muffins plus a few extra handfuls. They’re one of her favourites, she could have some fresh with the muffins.

“Why would you—” Heaven didn’t even look at me. She stood, dusting off her hands. “Her body was mine to deal with. Don’t worry about it.” Then she turned toward the mansion. “Come on.” And I followed in silence. *** The mansion loomed ahead, glowing with firelight. Inside, Denise was waiting, arms crossed, her face sour before I even reached her. I handed her the pouch of berries, sticky and crushed from my grip. She snatched it, opened it, and her nose wrinkled. The smell of pulp filled the air.

Something had to cause this. My frantic search for water continues, this delirious state playing on me until I can barely stand it. My eyes land on a small berry that has somehow made its way to me. Hunger immediately roars to life, making my stomach hurt even more. I groan in pain as my face turns white. The berries. Those horrible berries.

“Thanks, handsome.” I picked up a triangular pastry from the plate and broke it in half before holding it to Kai’s lips. Goldenberries were native to this kingdom, but we used to eat them with our battle feasts. He wrapped his mouth around it and watched me as he swallowed it. Fucking hell. They did not even have to do anything, and it was hot. How unfair was that? “Handsome, you’d become bitter with the pack by the time you met me. Why weren’t you hesitant to come towards me at all?”

“—harboring trash.” Before Berry could so much as hiss, the tip of his shadow-sword already pierced Adam’s neck, his blood squirting all over the place. He didn’t so much as winced as Adam’s blood trickled to his cheek; rather, he slammed Adam’s body to the wall next to him without removing himself from his hood. He breathed heavily, looking over his shoulder to see the helpless body of his slave, before unsummoning his shadow. Adam’s blood still lingered on his guilty hands, but it was Berry’s eyes set on it that intrigued him. With Berry’s glares, he slowly licked the drops of blood, which tasted like rusty metal. As he expected, Berry started screaming.

But when they heard my footsteps; they stopped talking as everyone stare at me with mixed emotions some gave me a look of pity, while some obviously show their concern. I pretended to be okay. As I gave a fake light smile and sat on the chair close to Ma'am Bella. "How you Darling?" Ma'am Bella asked me with concern "Am fine!" I replied simply and uncovered my plate. Toasted bread and scrambled eggs with orange juice. If it was for a normal day, my mouth could have been watery already just at the sight of this food. But here was I, with no appetite at all.
