In My Darkest Hour

The Eleventh Hour Chance

She was a pawn in a political game, nothing more. Her father, a man who despised her very existence, sold her off to the cold-blooded Duke in a marriage of convenience. Rumors painted her husband as a ruthless, unfeeling monster—a man to be feared, not loved. But she had long accepted her fate. After all, no one had ever cared for her, so why should her marriage be any different? Until her father, the man who abandoned her, barged into her life. “You are my daughter, and I have every right to take you back!” he declared, his once cold, dismissive eyes now brimming with something unrecognizable. Concern? Care? It was impossible. The man who hated her, who had cast her aside, now suddenly demanded her return. Why? As if that wasn’t enough, her aloof husband—known for his icy demeanor and ruthless efficiency—began to act… differently. The cold, unfeeling Duke she had resigned herself to live with seemed to harbor a warmth she couldn’t reconcile with the rumors that had defined him. “Do you really believe everything they say about me?” he asked, his piercing gaze softening for just a moment, leaving her speechless. Caught between a father whose motives are shrouded in mystery and a husband who defies every expectation, she finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew. Is her father’s sudden concern genuine, or is he playing yet another game? And what secrets lie behind the Duke’s impenetrable mask? In a web of lies, power, and buried truths, she must decide who to trust—if anyone at all. Could there be more to her fate than just being a pawn? Or will she be swept away by the tides of those who seek to control her?

Darkest Minds

In the year 2024, the Pandora Institution reigns as a symbol of mankind's cruelty, where superhumans are created, trained, and forced to battle to the death for the amusement of the world's elite. These engineered beings, designed to possess extraordinary abilities, are nothing more than tools in a deadly sport—expendable entertainment in a dystopian future. Marcus, a brilliant scientist, once played a key role in Pandora's experiments, helping to unlock the potential of these superhumans. But when he meets John, a young boy with immense powers marked for slaughter in the brutal games, Marcus's conscience can no longer bear the weight of his involvement. He takes the ultimate risk—adopting John as his own and plotting a dangerous escape from the institution. As they flee, the full force of Pandora’s hunters is unleashed, and Marcus must use his scientific knowledge and John's developing powers to stay one step ahead of their relentless pursuers. Along the way, Marcus uncovers shocking truths about Pandora’s true purpose, discovering that the institution’s endgame is even darker than he imagined. With time running out and their enemies closing in, Marcus and John forge an unbreakable bond as father and son. They must outwit Pandora’s powerful enforcers and expose the horrors of the institution to the world, all while learning to harness John’s abilities to fight back. In a final, high-stakes confrontation, Marcus and John stand together to dismantle the institution that enslaved them and countless others, fighting not only for their survival but for the freedom of all superhumans held captive by Pandora. Their story is one of rebellion, hope, and a battle for justice in a world that has forgotten what it means to be human.
