How to change CSS to affect #colour on one section

I've injected this CSS to create animated hover over effect on hyperlinks, but it's applying uniformly across site. This means the hover effect is #000000 even if on a dark background, making it illegible.  Is there a way to create an override for darker pages, to that it shows as #FFFFFF?

// Fade Out Line Hyperlink - Middle Stretch Out //
p a{
  display: inline-block;
  style: none !important; 
}

p a:hover:after{
  transform: scaleX(1) !important;
}

p a:after {
  display:block;
  content: '';
  border-bottom: solid 2px #000000 !important; 
} 
p a:after {
  transform: scaleX(0);  
  transition: transform 250ms ease-in-out;
  z-index: 999 !important;
 }

You can set color: #ffffff;

then add this CSS to change underline color on Light Theme

section[data-current-styles*="light"] p a::after {
    border-color: white !important;
}

Thanks for this. That code works/changes on light background. It's the dark background that I need changing though. Do you know how 'Darkest 1' background option is referred to as in CSS? I've tried changing "light" to "darkest" and "darkest 1" but neither are working...?

The dark background has no data current style. 

Try this

section:not([data-current-styles*="light"]) p a::after {
    border-color: green !important;
}

That's done it worked - brilliant. Thanks for help. Out of curiosity, why hasn't SS applied a current data style? It has for "light" but you're right, having inspected the theme for "dark" there's nothing set/showing? Weird.
