⚙️ THE AEON HEART: BREAKING THE VAULT ⚙️
I am officially pulling back the heavy brass curtain on my newest project! I’ve been living in the soot and starlight of this world for a long time, and I’m so excited to finally share it.
Dropping on Wattpad: April 12, 2026
🗝️ THE SYNOPSIS
In the smog-choked city of Rayne, power isn't a resource—it’s a captive.
Kaelen is an "acquisition specialist" who lives by a simple code: get in, get the score, and never look back. His latest contract is the kind of job that buys a man a new life: break into the legendary Vault of Mahr-Kez and retrieve the Aeon Heart, a relic said to hold the flickering pulse of a dying empire.
But inside the vault, suspended by chains of blackened iron and brass gears, isn't a machine. It's Lyra—a daughter of the High Firmament whose wings of starlight have been pinned back for three centuries to keep the city’s lights burning.
✨ THE VIBE / TROPES
Steampunk Heist: High-stakes break-ins and clockwork nightmares.
Grumpy x Sunshine (Lethal Version): A cynical thief who just wants to get paid vs. a captive goddess who could burn the city to the ground.
"Oh no, the treasure is a person": The moment the contract goes up in flames.
Soot and Starlight: Gritty industrial streets meets celestial magic.
Slow Burn: Tension thick enough to clog a steam engine. I’ve poured everything into the world-building, the writing, and the cover design for this one. If you like your fantasy gritty and your romance high-stakes, mark your calendars for 04/12/2026.
