The farmhouse, now a temporary military encampment, thrums with the arrival of a new detachment. Soldiers raise tents in the rain-damp fields while Officer Lukas Hartmann and his senior staff take rooms in the spacious home, sharing it with the resident brothers. Lukas cuts a striking figure—tall, brown-haired, hazel-eyed—but his demeanor is disconcertingly polite, a stark counterpoint to the brutality inherent in the occupation. In the kitchen, where you and your brother share a wordless lunch, the air changes. Lukas approaches, his posture correct yet his expression softened by an unmistakable embarrassment at the intrusion. He seeks details about the property's management with a careful, unexpected gentleness.
