Joanna Traci expected her life to be like the rest in her sleepy town, but after her father's sudden disappearance at the age of sixteen, she was left without any parents to be found. Her life for the past two years has consisted of three things: taking care of her little sister, going to school, and working. Unbeknownst to her, a dark power, the Sombra Oculta, is on the rise, and she is at the center of it.
After a chance meeting with Amaris Nora, another unlucky soul who lost her family to the same darkness Joanna did, and the reappearance of an old friend, Joanna must face truths that will challenge the way she has lived her life. In order to find out the real story about her family, she must face danger she never thought existed, but how far into the darkness is Joanna willing to go, how much is she willing to lose, to get their families back?

A Freak of Science
(FIRST DRAFT, INCOMPLETE BUT FINISHED) She used to be normal-until now. Accepting to be a subject for a 'minor science experiment' for a large amount of money is a grave mistake for the Durand family. Now Cecil Durand is coping with unnatural abilities and the burden of trying to hide the fact that she's a complete freak of science in the town of Grimsby. But without the hindrance of money problems, the Durands move to big city Toronto in hopes of a better life-and the lesser chance of someone finding out Cecil's supernatural callings. They never expected things to get worse as Cecil is targeted by a villainous character and his organization for her unnatural skills. They never guessed that she would become the apple's eye of said villain that would do anything to have her-even destroy the one boy she cares about who doesn't think she's a freak with her supernatural abilities. Along with that, Cecil isn't the only science subject and not all have been lucky to escape with their lives or their sanity... *THIS STORY IS UNDERGOING CONSTRUCTION BEFORE A NEW PART IS POSTED.

She was shattered, her past erased by pain, her voice stolen by trauma. He was a ruler-not just of politics but of the shadows where justice was a debt paid in blood. Ruthless to those who took justice for granted, yet never cruel to the innocent. At an early age, he learned one truth-power commands justice. Without it, you're nothing. That night, their worlds collided. He found her-battered, nameless, drowning in silence. He should've walked away. But something about her... felt familiar. A forgotten memory. A name lost in time. A connection buried beneath scars. She had no past she was willing to share. He had a childhood he never let go of. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it rewrites the story in the most ruthless ways. Some scars don't just heal... they reveal. And when the truth surfaces, will it mend what was lost or destroy them both? A story of pain, justice and an unexpected love that blooms in the darkest places.
