Lucas lost everything. His abusive father pushed his mother to the brink of death. His younger sister turned into a chip for blackmailing and lost her life. Left alone in the world without his loved ones, he decided to end his life to meet them in the afterlife.

Instead of dying, Lucas was born as a baby without his past memories in a world of cultivation. He had a loving family of mother and older sister. Even without his memories, as Lucas grew up, he knew in his heart that he had to protect his family from all the evils and strived to become stronger.

With his growth, Lucas occasionally started to see many heart-rending visions, which affected him greatly and affected the way he looked at others, including his family. The revelations shocked him. He couldn't trust anyone, even his once close family and friends.

What were those visions? How will Lucas cope with the unsettling revelations and his chaotic feelings?
Will he become estranged or strengthen his bonds with his family and friends and gain the love and warmth that he once longed for.

Read from the perspective of Lucas and join him on his journey of growth, acceptance and love.

***
The prologue of the novel (the first 2 chapters) is tragic and hard to digest but HOLD ON!
Do read at least the first 10 chapters before deciding to drop off.


Note: No Gender-Bender, Yuri, NTR and Rape.

Shards of the Broken Heart

"Gary Lindstrom! What's all this fuss about?"

A slightly shaky but robust voice echoed in the Imperial Hall of the Lindstrom empire. An old man with frizzly grey hair and wrinkles adorning his facial muscles hit the armrest of the throne he was sitting on.

Though he was old, his muscles weren't sagging, and the toned but muscular frame of his chest could be seen through an opening in his loosened robe.

The old man's eyes, full of authority, were looking down upon a man who had subserviently kept his whole body in a kowtow.

"Ancestor, please ease your anger."

The man who implored while bowing so pathetically was none other than the emperor of the Lindstrom empire and the current head of the Lindstrom family.

But in the presence of the one sitting on the throne, he was but a child. The old man was his own uncle, and the one hailed as the 'Lord of the Lindstrom planet', Alec Lindstrom.
