THE LIST
Nora Clopper must find the courage to survive occupied Europe with a group of American Paratroopers *BAND OF BROTHERS FANFIC*
35 Days (Violent Delights Book 10)
35 days. A siege nearly ten years in the making. 300 French defenders attempt to hold off nearly 10,000 English assailants from the vital port town of Harfluer. As casualties from disease mount on both sides, the French can only pray for relief. Relief that will never come. Based on true events. The town of Harfluer courageously held out against England's greatest warrior king, Henry V, for over a month. This is their story. Trigger/Content Warning: this is a war story so there is extreme violence throughout. Very traumatic deaths of major characters (Day 28-30). A character has a panic attack on page. There is an extended sequence that can inspire claustrophobia (Day 5). Could be triggering to those with a fear of drowning (Day 5). Profanity throughout out. Rape is discussed (primarily preventing it, nothing shown). Brief minor sexuality, characters kiss briefly, and are shown in bed together, nothing more. Alcohol use throughoutComplete

GATE: Thus The JSDF & USMC Fought There!
Mostly the GATE plot, but with a Regiment of US MARINES. So in other words a little realistic with the US-Japan Relations. Any pictures, gifs and videos do not belong to me. The gate series I don't own. This fanfic I do own.
