Berlin, 1943
I was never a man to believe in omens, but as I stood on the balcony of the Reich Chancellery, staring out at the snow falling over Berlin, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of foreboding.
My leg began to twitch, and I reached down to turn off the prosthetic.
It was a habit I could never break – even after all these years.
"Mein Führer," Joseph Goebbels called, his voice echoing through the hallway behind me.
I turned just in time to see him step out onto the balcony and hand me a cigarette.
"Is this one of those American ones you’re so fond of?"
I took it from him and lit it with my silver lighter.
The one with the swastika on it.
My favorite.
"Yes," I said finally.
"It’s one of those."
Goebbels nodded, his eyes squinting slightly as he lit his own cigarette.
"I’ve been going over the numbers from Africa," he said after a moment.
"We can’t keep throwing good men after bad. It’s a waste of resources."
"I know," I said finally.
"We’ve been over this."
"We have to face reality, Hitler. Sometimes you can’t get what you want no matter how hard you try."
I glared at him and took another drag on my cigarette.
The snow continued to fall, and I gripped the balcony railing, feeling the cold metal through my gloves.
Each flake was a reminder of our frozen campaign in Russia.
Goebbels shifted behind me, his breath visible in the winter air.
I watched as the ember from my discarded cigarette faded into the gathering snow.
Just like our tanks in the African desert.
The wind picked up, and I could hear the distant sound of air raid sirens testing.
Without looking at Goebbels, I pushed myself away from the railing and walked toward the glass doors.
"Mein Führer," Goebbels said, his footsteps hurrying behind me.
I walked through the dimly lit corridor of the Chancellery, my boots echoing off the walls.
The carpet was plush and thick, and I had to stop myself from tripping on it.
My prosthetic leg got caught in the fibers, and I had to reach out and steady myself against the wall.
The war maps hung there, a constant reminder of our recent defeats.
Goebbels caught up to me, his breath still visible in the cold air.
"Mein Führer, shall I summon Göring as well?"
The mention of that name made my jaw clench.
Göring, who promised us air superiority and failed.
"Everyone," I snapped, continuing down the hall.
We reached my office door, and I turned to face him.
"Joseph, do you remember what I told you about loyalty?"
"Yes, Mein Führer, that it is the only currency worth anything in this war."
"And yet, even loyalty has its limits, doesn't it?"
