He enjoyed the city's splendor from the balcony of the palace. It was dazzling, worthy of the Gods' envy- if they even exist. He felt something soft and warm embrace him from behind. Arms wrapped around his belly. "What are you thinking about?" she asked while sniffing his back. "Would you believe me if I said that I was thinking about you?" he turned around and feasted his eyes upon her pretty face. "I wouldn't" she shook her head and grinned. "Why?" "Because I've fallen for your sweet words many times before and I will not fall into your trap again" He whispered to her ears, "What if I say that I'll give you the world?" "Cliché" she smirked "What if I say, that I'll give my life for you?" "Too tragic" she laughed "What if I say that" he rubbed his nose against hers "I will love you with all my heart" She smiled "Then I'll have no choice but to fall for your sweet words again" ***************** Hello readers!

A cynical 21st-century historian, contemptuous of the Soviet Union's collapse, is inexplicably reborn as Gennady Yanayev in the heart of Moscow, August 1991. Armed with future knowledge and a ruthless determination, he hijacks the impending coup, not to preserve a dying system, but to forge a new, terrifyingly efficient Soviet superpower poised for global domination. Following a freak accident, Alex awakens not in a hospital, but in the body of Gennady Yanayev, Vice President of the USSR, on the eve of the infamous August Coup of 1991. Initially disoriented, Yanaev quickly grasps the monumental implications. This isn't just a second chance for a forgotten historical figure; it's a chance to rewrite history on an unimaginable scale. Discarding Yanayev's hesitant, fumbling persona, Alex – now Yanayev – moves with a chilling decisiveness. He knows the coup is doomed to fail in its original form, a pathetic whimper before the inevitable collapse. He intends to make it a roar. Using his intimate knowledge of the key players, their fears, and their secrets, Yanayev systematically neutralizes his rivals within the State Committee on the State of Emergency. Where persuasion fails, veiled threats and, when necessary, swift, brutal assassinations clear his path. With the Soviet Union now firmly in his iron grip, Yanayev implements radical reforms – not towards democracy, but towards a hyper-efficient, technologically advanced, and ideologically re-energized state. He purges corruption with an iron fist, revitalizes the military-industrial complex by leveraging future technological concepts (albeit with 1990s resources), and masterfully manipulates nationalist sentiments to unify the fracturing republics under a new, stronger Soviet banner. The West, initially confused by the coup's unexpected ferocity and success, watches in dawning horror. The United States and its allies, anticipating a Soviet implosion, now face a resurgent and far more dangerous adversary. As Yanayev's USSR begins to project its power outwards, reasserting influence in Eastern Europe, forging new alliances in Asia and Africa, and challenging American dominance at every turn, a new, more perilous Cold War ignites.

They call me the Jewel, but I'm also their slave. For thirteen years, my world has been the gilded cage of the Onyx Club, a high-class slave house for the powerful shifter packs. My only light is my secret son, Billy—the one part of my soul they can't chain. To protect him, I endure the leers of the elite and the cruel ownership of my rapist, Trevor Gray. My quiet rebellion shatters the night I accidentally walk in on Falon Gray, the Supreme Alpha himself, in a moment that could destroy him. I now hold a secret more dangerous than any weapon, and the most powerful man in the city knows it. The game changes when I meet Darel, a kind, clumsy man who feels like a glimpse of a life I can never have. But the illusion is viciously ripped away when I discover the truth: Darel is a Gray. Now, I'm trapped in a gala of wolves, forced to play the charming escort to the one man I thought was different, while his brother—the Alpha—watches my every move, waiting to see if I'll break. But they've made a fatal mistake. They threatened my son's future. I am no longer just a slave. I am a mother with a weapon. And I will burn their whole world to the ground to protect my own.
