Five modern-day mafia members are tossed into the French‑speaking court of 19th Century Russia. They don’t know a thing about history. They don't even know what in the actual fuck is happening.
They all died single and romantically doomed. But when they woke up, they were suddenly turned into fathers, husbands, and lovers.

I’ve rewritten a lot of chapters, so if the bots arrive later than expected, please know it’s for a reason. Chapters are quick, but bots are different. Tbh, I find writing this series as bots is hard because I got too fancy with details (and now I can't back out, but I also do not want to remove them). I’m also on travelling right now. There might be some unexpected changes because of my schedule. I am too busy to make extra graphics, rewrite the intros, etc. And I promised myself I would relax.
The 19th century photos of Ivan, Aleksei, and Sergei are also updated. You can view them on the website.
PS. The first version of Ivan's chapter is posted in my discord.
