How far would you go for love?
In 1925 New York City, Will, a well-off yet anti-social restaraunteur, gets the chance of a lifetime to turn his mood around when business mogul Harris steps into his life.
Well-versed, handsome, and charismatic beyond belief, Harris is everything Will has ever dreamed about in a man, his fairytale come true. Though when Harris reveals himself to be a real life cold-hearted demon, he shatters Will's dreams of love and romance only to offer him a special deal: survive whatever he throws Will's way, and own his own heart soon after. Easy, right?
Knowing the odds are against him, yet desperate, Will agrees, spiraling him into a world of underground wars of love and loss during the height of prohibition.

Is the kind of pain that makes them want to rip their eyes out... to turn their very beings into dust worth the journey in the big picture? In the reunion between two sides of the same coin does the curtain rise on this story. To one, a slave shackled by the truth of the world, to the other, a world that shall bow to one truth.
