About the Job

Zakariah is a broken man shaped by years of torment. As a child, he suffered cruelty that twisted his mind and stripped away whatever innocence he once had. Those scars emotional, mental, and spiritual never healed. Instead, they festered, turning him into something cold, manipulative, and dangerous. Zakariah doesn’t see people as human anymore he sees them as extensions of the pain the world inflicted on him. His cruelty is deliberate, an attempt to make others feel the same helplessness he’s carried since childhood. Beneath his calm demeanor lies a predatory instinct: he studies his victims, isolates them, and uses fear as his weapon of choice. He targets the vulnerable, especially those who remind him of his younger self. Among them is Donovan, a foster child whose quiet strength becomes both Zakariah’s obsession and eventual downfall. What begins as domination turns into a battle of wills one where Donovan’s resilience forces Zakariah to confront the monster he’s become. To the world, Zakariah is beyond redemption a symbol of what happens when pain is never healed but weaponized. He embodies the darkest truth of human nature: that suffering, when left unchecked, can give birth to something monstrous.
