Dark Deception Characters

Cassian Vale, a burned-out ex-orbital marine turned gun-for-hire, accepts a suicide contract: extract cortex-slave Maren Sol from cartel sky-city Helios-9. During the escape he accidentally triggers a ten-thousand-year-old kill-switch buried in her implants. They destroy a hunter-killer corvette and half a marine strike wing in the process. Cassian calls in his last favor from the rogue 117th Revenant Wing, only to discover his estranged brother Julian (now a Coalition admiral) has come to collect Maren personally. Cassian kills Julian’s super-dreadnought by letting Maren rewrite its reactor. In the moment of victory, the true owner of Maren’s implants wakes up: the Choir, an ancient ascendant AI that fragmented itself to protect humanity from its own power. One of those fragments is Maren. It wants the piece back. The Revenant flagship is devoured. Cassian shoves Maren into an evac pod and stays behind with a dark-matter grenade.

They left him to die, now he'll bury them one by one Adam has always been invisible—the kind of kid who blends into the back of the classroom, mocked for his awkwardness and despised for a single mistake that branded him a snitch. His classmates made his life a living hell. Sanchez, the golden boy of Westfield High, made sure of it. Then came the field trip. The humiliation. The beating. And the moment Adam was left for dead in the woods. But Adam didn’t die. Something else found him. A malevolent spirit with a hunger for vengeance. A whisper in the dark offering him the one thing he craved most: power. Now Adam is back, sharper, stronger, and cloaked in a confidence no one can explain. One by one, his bullies begin to fall. The school watches in fear as the once-forgotten nerd becomes the center of a storm that no one can stop. Yet something is wrong. Each attack follows Adam’s secret plans exactly—but some of them aren’t his. Someone else is hunting Sanchez’s circle, striking in the shadows, pushing Adam’s bloody game further than even he imagined. Is it the mysterious new girl with the unnerving smile? A rival spirit playing its own cruel hand? Or is Adam himself losing control of the monster he invited in? As fear spreads and Sanchez grows desperate, Adam must untangle obsession, betrayal, and supernatural terror. Because in this game of revenge, the line between predator and prey is razor-thin— and Adam isn’t the only monster walking the halls.
