The only thing more dangerous than losing your freedom is losing yourself.
The only thing more dangerous than losing your freedom is losing yourself.
In the shadow of the dystopian Gynarchy Empire, where men are property and alien women rule with absolute authority, former Lieutenant Ethan Drake faces a destiny more profound than mere submission.
Stripped of his identity and designated as E269, Ethan endures the brutal conditioning of the Institution of Male Education. His only refuge exists in dreams, where a mysterious presence offers forbidden connection and dangerous hope.
As the Gynarchy faces a devastating fertility crisis and alarming collar failures threatening their control, scientists discover something extraordinary in Ethan’s genetic makeup. Suddenly, he becomes the center of a desperate power struggle that reaches from the highest echelons of Gynarchy royalty to the lawless Fringe. With ruthless space pirates exploiting collar malfunctions to steal valuable resources and enemies plotting from within, Ethan must navigate a treacherous path between submission and self-preservation.
Meanwhile, Duchess Erin Prisco—his former subordinate turned owner—finds herself torn between her growing love for Domina Emily Valentine and her lingering feelings for the man she once knew. As political machinations threaten everything she values, Erin must decide how far she’ll go to protect a male who is both property and something far more precious.
But shadows move beyond the Gynarchy’s borders. Ancient forces recognize what the matriarchy cannot: something in Ethan’s bloodline carries secrets that could reshape civilization itself.
In T.R. Schneider‘s captivating sequel to Gynarchy’s Collar, power and submission intertwine with hidden destiny and political intrigue. As Ethan’s status transforms from slave to something unprecedented, he discovers that in a galaxy of ancient secrets, some bloodlines are too valuable to control—and too dangerous to ignore.
Some desires transcend stars. Some bloodlines change empires.

Customer Reviews
Power, Love, and Control!
This book really surprised me. At first, I thought it would just be another dark sci-fi story, but it turned into something much deeper. The world is strange and harsh—men are not free, and women rule everything. Ethan, the main guy, goes through a lot. He’s taken, renamed, and treated like a thing, but somehow he doesn’t lose who he is.
What I liked most was how the story mixes danger, love, and big ideas about power and choice. The women aren’t just villains either—Erin and Emily are strong, smart, and stuck in tough spots of their own.
The story has action, politics, and even space pirates, but it’s also about people trying to do the right thing when the rules are broken. If you like sci-fi with heart and strong characters on all sides, this one’s worth reading.
Erotic Sci-Fi
This book presented a terrifying scenario. We’re all familiar about the imprisonment of the body. What this book details is a culture that can completely change a person’s personality. Women are the rulers, and they are mostly without compassion towards their male subjects, whom they see as slaves or simply stud services to impregnate women. We get to see the slow deterioration of men, one man in particular, known by the women as the Golden Sire, but his original name is Ethan. But to dehumanize the man, he is called E269. All men lose their names and become numbers. They are controlled by sophisticated neural impulses from the controlling women to a device on the men’s neck.
Unfortunately, I was denied resolution of the conflict because (unawares), this book is the 2nd in a trilogy. Also, the book is quite sexually graphic, so be warned.
