Isang talented wedding gown designer na halos mawalan ng lahat—ang bahay, ang negosyo, at ang inang may malubhang sakit. Walang ama, walang kapatid, mag-isa na lamang siyang lumalaban. Hanggang isang araw, dumating si Sebastian Rivas—ang pinakamakapangyarihan at pinakakinatatakutang bilyonaryo sa bansa, ang tinaguriang “Demon of Real Estate.” Hindi siya nag-alok ng awa. Nag-alok siya ng kontrata: magpakasal sila sa papel at sa publiko, titira sa kanyang pribadong isla sa Palawan, at kapalit nito, babayaran niya ang lahat ng utang, gagamutin ang ina ni Ava, at bibigyan pa ito ng bagong simula. Pumayag si Ava—walang choice. Pero hindi alam ni Ava na may mas malalim na dahilan si Sebastian. Ginagamit niya ang kasal para makapasok sa lihim ng pamilya Lim—at mahanap ang katotohanan sa pagkamatay ng kapatid niya na hindi niya matanggap na aksidente lang. Sa bawat titig, bawat haplos, bawat gabing magkasama sa malaking kama, unti-unting nawawala ang lamig ni Sebastian. Nagiging obsessed siya—selos na selos sa kahit sinong lalaking lumalapit kay Ava, hinahawakan ito na parang pag-aari, at handang sirain ang mundo para mapanatili siyang malapit. Pero kapag natuklasan ni Ava na ang pamilya niya mismo ang maaaring may kinalaman sa trahedya ni Sebastian… magagawa pa kaya niyang manatili sa piling ng lalaking nagsimula sa kontrata pero nagtapos sa pag-ibig na parang tanikala? Makakalaya ba si Ava mula sa mala-presong kasal na ito… o siya mismo ang magiging dahilan para mas lalong lumalim ang dilim na hawak ni Sebastian?
