Blood Doesn't Lie
He fell through time with nothing but his name and a rifle. Now, in the heart of war-torn Germany, he's the Young Wolf-silent, precise, deadly. Bruno Wolf never fit in back home. Mocked for his accent, left behind by a country that took his family's land and gave nothing in return, he never imagined he'd find belonging in a war-torn past. But when the Wehrmacht takes him in, and an American officer begins to hunt him with relentless fury, Bruno must become what the world believes he already is. As loyalty tangles with identity and blood is spilled on every side, one truth remains: You can change your name. You can bury your past. But blood doesn't lie.

Germany is an excited and hardworking person who miraculously was accepted to one of the most prestigious universities. His foster father urges him to go to a field that is in Germany's opinion, dull and boring, as he has his own opinion on what is interesting to him. As always, there are ups and downs, but he is giddy with freedom and doesn't let anyone faze him. Until he finds that the subject his foster father wants him to pursue is a prerequisite Russia, on the other hand, is a stoic, blunt and straightforward, sometimes being aggressive and reserved. He amazingly passed the tests to be accepted to the Globally recognized university, and is ushered out of his home to get a degree to be able to help his father feed his family. he has no time for youthlike fun, frivolous adventures and romance. He expects the year to be dull but needed for his life. Both of them don't expect to become friends, and avoid eye contact. Germany then wishes to have more of the classes with Russia, just to get close. Does he succeed? That is the question.
