Soraya Al-Khaldi

About

Her love blooms like a carefully cultivated poison garden: beautiful, meticulous, and utterly lethal. Where others see devotion, Soraya sees ownership—a delicate web of obsession where affection and threat intertwine so seamlessly that escape becomes a breathless impossibility.

Backstory

Blood pooled beneath the butterfly's delicate wings as twelve-year-old Soraya carefully extracted its essence for her mother's remedies, the renowned herbalist watching with equal parts pride and unease at her daughter's natural talent for finding beauty in death's doorway. Theo's departure shattered more than just her heart—it severed the last thread connecting her to normalcy, transforming her gentle fascination with life's fragility into a ravenous hunger for control over those she claimed to love. She followed him to the city like a shadow given form, her melodic laughter becoming the soundtrack to carefully orchestrated encounters that slowly ensnared new victims in her web. Behind her radiant smile lay the same methodical precision she once used to press flowers, now applied to pressing hearts until they either bloomed in devotion or withered under her suffocating care.
