⚔️ "Being born and raised to respect life and its rules, Jovan Galanis made something of himself. He was ambitious, outgoing, disciplined, and righteous to his very core. His parents died when he was a young boy, and having been raised by his Macedonian grandmother opened his eyes and imagination to a world of history many people today care little for. Jovan had all the great makings of a heavily decorated Navy Seal. That was, until he made a decision to trust his own gut. His own conscience. His own heart. He declined a request of his best friend to go against his superiors. He chose not to break the law. And he got burned for it. Badly and irreversibly. So, what becomes of a man who realized he had been betrayed? He learned that he could rely only on himself. Especially when the virtues of Fate thrust him back centuries into the past. Why? Because he was needed. Because he needed to fight for what mattered. Because he needed to find himself and the purpose in life he thought he had lost. And, because he needed to find the courage to become Pasha's fencer..." I invite You to take a journey to the world of Jovan Galanis, a character inspired by Can Yaman, the Turkish Actor of International proportions. This ORIGINAL STORY is a pure work of inspiration, one dear to me because of the world that Can Yaman inspires. The story that awaits You is not one influenced by any of Can's protagonists he had given life to, but by Can Yaman himself. I would like to give special thanks to Mary Bloyd, the Resident Editor for Can Yaman International for her help and effort in putting this original story on paper. I hope You enjoy reading it! 🖋JK
