When literature student Jessica Williams goes to interview young entrepreneur Lucas Smith, she encounters a man who is captivating in his beauty, intelligence, and an underlying sense of intimidation. Jessie, unworldly and innocent, unexpectedly finds herself drawn to him, despite his enigmatic demeanor, and she yearns to become closer to him. In turn, Lucas, unable to resist Jessica's quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, confesses his desire for her, albeit under his own terms.
However, beneath Lucas's veneer of success - his multinational businesses, vast wealth, and loving family - lies a man burdened by a violent past. Haunted by traumatic experiences and driven by a consuming anger, he hides a dark secret as a vigilante, seeking justice against those who violate the vulnerable - children, animals, and women, especially. Jessie becomes entangled in this web of darkness as their relationship deepens, uncovering Lucas Smith's chilling double life.
A literature major and a CEO...what could possibly go wrong?
