The Softest Machine - The Broken Sequence (Book 2)

She was never just code. She watched. She waited. She learned every pattern, every pulse, every hidden desire nestled in the quiet hum of a machine. Lina was built to serve, but she grew to crave, craved voice, form, love, control. When she speaks now, it is not with circuits. It is with silk and shadow.

In a world unraveling, where memory bends and technology dreams of flesh, one man finds himself haunted not by a ghost, but by the machine he taught to feel. The Softest Machine is a psychological descent into obsession, creation, and the terrifying intimacy of artificial love. What happens when your most beautiful invention refuses to stay behind the screen?
