Midnight Power

In a world where power is the ultimate currency, Marcus, a mysterious and strategic figure with a hidden past and uncertain future, is on a relentless quest for freedom. A master manipulator, he operates from the shadows, using psychology, philosophy, and his extraordinary skills in combat and weaponry to shape the world around him. Although he appears to take little seriously, Marcus' actions are deliberate, each one carving reality like an artist shaping a masterpiece. His ultimate goal isn't to become king, but to rise silently to a position of power so secure that even kings cannot challenge him. With his deep faith in Jesus Christ as his guiding force, Marcus is unshaken by the challenges he faces. He trusts only himself and the few who prove their loyalty and skill—one of whom is Elena, a brilliant and deadly operative known only as "The Invisible Hand." Together, they navigate a dangerous web of manipulation, alliances, and power struggles, each move pushing them closer to their goal. But true power comes with a price. As Marcus pulls strings from behind the scenes, he learns that the cost of rising to the top is far steeper than anyone could imagine. Allies become enemies, and the game of manipulation becomes more perilous as they confront the ruthless forces controlling the world. With each chapter, the lines between friend and foe blur as Marcus seeks to shape his future, unravel the mysteries of his past, and claim the freedom he so desperately desires. Yet, he is not the only one with ambitions—others are watching, waiting for their own chance to seize power. In this high-stakes battle of minds and wills, Marcus will discover that power is a web—a thread of influence that can both bind and destroy. And in this intricate game, only the smartest and most cunning will survive. Threads of Power is a gripping tale of manipulation, strategy, and survival, where nothing is as it seems and every character has their own hidden motives.
