The Fractaline Heart

By Roman (B.S.)

"The Fractaline Heart" (Book 1 of The Fractaline Cycle)
The night the sky tore open, Orion Vale felt a heartbeat that wasn't his.
Luminara is a city powered by emotion - a living grid of light, resonance, and harmonic energy. But when a cosmic fracture rips across the sky, something ancient awakens inside Orion: a second heartbeat made of crystal and starlight.
The Fractaline Heart.
Alive. Intelligent. And choosing him.
As Orion struggles to control the Latticeframe - a luminous exoshell that manifests with every surge of fear or pain - the city begins to unravel. Emotional storms sweep through the streets. Harmonic towers collapse. And a digital-spectral entity known as the Cipher Wraith emerges from the Grid, hunting the Heart that now beats inside him.
To survive, Orion must trust Lyra Solenne, a Resonance Architect whose touch can calm the Heart's power - and whose past is tied to secrets the Bureau refuses to reveal.
But the Wraith is not the only threat rising.
A cult called the Null Choir is sabotaging the city's emotional infrastructure, believing the collapse of the Grid is the universe's true destiny. And the Fractaline Heart reacts to every attack... as if remembering something long forgotten.
The city is changing.
The Grid is waking.
And Orion's new heartbeat may be the key to salvation - or the spark that ends everything.
