Manfred Von Richthofen has always known his destiny. His entire life has been consecrated to a profession as an officer in the field. He has realized all the goals set for him and more-he has made a name for himself as The Red Baron, shooting countless enemy planes out of the sky in a vermillion plane. The concept of living for the Fatherland, serving his country and dying an honorable death have been meticulously inculcated in him since his boyhood. He has been set to marry his childhood playmate, Adele Von Wallenberg since 1913, and it is only the war that keeps their wedding from becoming a reality. Aside from the pleasures of the hunt and his love for solitude and the company of his dog and his comrades, he lacks for no other diversion.
That is, until he meets a young Viennese girl at a party in a hunting lodge deep in the Black Forest.
Her name is Lea Schwarz, and she's the total antithesis of everything Manfred thinks a woman should embody-and everything a woman shouldn't be in the 20th century. Contrary to the general opinion of such nonconformists, he is attracted to her free-spirited, headstrong nature, which contradicts his mental image of women being superficially cheerful, demure creatures in just about every way. He is also pleased to discover that she feels more or less the same pulling attraction toward the outwardly aloof, upright, former cavalry officer.
But as they say, look a gift horse in the mouth, and you will surely find it is missing teeth.

The Eagle, the Wolf, and the Sun: Prologue
Der Adler, der Wolf, und die Sonne: Die Geschichte des Stahlpakts (The Eagle, the Wolf, and the Sun: The History of the Pact of Steel) For the first time, a thorough research project with the support of the National Archives of Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan and the United States have flung open their doors to the premier students of the world's most serious conflict and allowed them to assemble in a cognitive work that ranks amongst the greatest historical works of the most famous students of History of all time--Herodotus, Thucydides, Livy, Caesar, Mahan, Massie, and others. This portion is the Prologue, a detailed review of the historical events between 1919 and 1935 which covers the political and military situations between the ending of the Great War and the start of the actual book.

(DISCONTINUED)The Butcher Of Verdun (Youjo Senki) (M Reader X Tanya Degurechaff)
Meet (Y/N) (L/N). An absolute nobody that no one, not even his parents, bother or care to acknowledge. One thing drove him to continue his existence however, his undying thirst for knowledge on the subject of history. He's watched countless hours of documentaries about The One Hundred Year War and the Qing Dynasty and read plenty of books on subjects such as The Cold War and The Napoleonic Wars. But one stood above the rest in his opinion, World War One, the perfect balance between modern and ancient warfare. So when he is thrown into a world set in the era of the war to end all wars, will he carve his name in stone like legends such as Manfred von Richthofen or Adrian Carton de Wiart, or will he die trying and allow the trench to be his final resting place. Perhaps he may find something other than excitement and thrill. After all, he wasn't the only one pushed in front of the train. I do not own anything in this book apart from the book itself.

The Hater and the Player
His strides were long and powerful as he walk towards me. I was stiff on the other hand, my heart thumped loudly against my chest and my hands were fisted on my side. I couldn't even mutter a sentence when his face leaned so close to mine I could feel his breath on my cheeks. "Feng-er" My eyes trembled and my heart skipped a beat. It was just a word, a single word yet it made such a large impact on my system. "Look at me" His fingers grip my chin securely, though it wasn't tight at all, I was unable to take it off. "Wh-what are you d-doing?" A shiver went down my spine when I notice the look on his eyes, it was the same from before. The same look of passion when he kissed me on the street eight years ago. "I admit I had a few girlfriends before and add some weekly romance rumors but remember this. No matter how beautiful a flower is, it won't measure to that one single flower you've cared and nurtured, personally" Then he dive in for a kiss without hearing my response. ...
