No emotions, No pain, No guilt, No pity, No love. They feel nothing. They are humans genetically modified to protect the most powerful empire in the world through history : Egypt, China, Greece, Rome... But after the Great World War, that nearly exterminated the human kind, everyone had enough. The world wants peace and prosperity. That is why, every government voted on deactivating the modified humans in a sealed room deep underground. Centuries later, archaeologists found the room and took the perfectly preserved bodies back to the surface to study the corpses. Or so they thought. However, errors were made and the scientists accidentally awakened one of them. THIS IS A MANxMAN STORY!!!!

How do you get your life back when you have gone through hell? I wouldn't know; it has been two years and a half and I barely survive each day. Oh! I pretend I'm alright, teaching my classes, working on my research, going out with my friends, hiding behind a mask of normality. But this is just a facade. I can barely sleep most nights and often have nightmares that leave me drenched in sweat. My life is just plainly pathetic until I meet one certain student's older brother. My name is Anthony, I am twenty-nine and I am going to tell you how I submitted to the love of my life. I am a Dominant. I love to have total control over my partners, giving commands that they obey, managing every aspect of their life. I guess this is my way of coping with the childhood I endured around my controlling and abusive father. I thought I had found the perfect Submissive but he left me, feeling too oppressed under my dominance - I admit I am excessively strict - so I am still searching for this special someone until I meet my little brother's math teacher. My name is Ethan, I am thirty and I am going to tell you how I subdued the love of my life.

Jasper was used to rich men flaunting their money and acting like they were sex gods when they really sucked, so when he got a call from his boss about Darrek Blackwell, he wasn't exactly thrilled. That was... until he met him at the restaurant he'd requested he meet him at. Darrek was astonishingly sexy--something that stood out immediately because he hadn't witnessed many attractive rich men hitting up an escort line. Even a high-class one. He also radiated dominance, something that had him writhing in his seat, needy for more than just husky words whispered into his ear over drinks in an expensive restaurant.

BOOK ONE Demitri Inou is an assassin of the new government, molded and manicured into the perfect pet. Obedient and submissive, he'll do anything the Con Rồng tells him to because he knows the consequences of disobeying them, but even through years of torture and instilled fear, he remains somewhat defiant towards his handlers. Though he's lost all humanity, virtue, and hope of being free, he refuses to completely succumb to them, and uses his hatred towards them to fuel each assassination. Being the skilled killer he is, it isn't at all surprising when the leader of the Con Rồng sends him on a mission that could either end the new government or boost their following and power. A mission to eliminate the leader of the Phoenix Rebellion, Phoniks Vidroh. At first it seems like just another mission, another simple assassination, but things go terribly wrong, and Demitri finds himself smack in the middle of the rebellion, fighting against the strings that tie him to the Con Rồng, and the hope of freedom and safety with a childhood friend he'd always assumed to be dead. "... and even as the world is consumed in the flames of evil, the strong will continue to rise from the ashes."
