Chapter 294: The Only Way Through is Forward...



Bruno returned from the awards ceremony feeling quite rejuvenated. As a man who had held the rank of Generalfeldmarschall during the first year of the war, Bruno's decorations were quite humble when compared to the others who held a similar post.

By now, however, his chest was decorated with medals, and these were medals earned through the shedding of sweat, tears, and blood. Through exceptional valor on the battlefield, and military leadership in the face of the enemy.

When he stepped foot into his home, wearing his full dress uniform, Bruno found his wife staring at him with a rather flushed look. Heidi was even biting her lip, trying not to openly express her arousal at the sight of her man all dressed up, and with medals that most men would be willing to exchange their life just for a chance to be granted it posthumously. Having seen his wife's lustful appearance Bruno simply smirked and walked past her, instead picking up one of his younger daughters, and kissing her on the cheek, while reminding Heidi that they were not in the safety and privacy of their bedroom and should instead restrain themselves.

"I know you're excited to see me in my full glory, but you would do well to remember your whereabouts, dear...."

Having just realized where she was, after being so enamored by her husband's gallant appearance, Heidi blushed in embarrassment as she quickly recovered from her amorous awe. The eldest of Bruno's daughters who was now closing in on 14 years of age, was quick to rush down the stairs, having seen her father in his dress uniform for the first time since the preceding peaceful era.
