What begins as a deal soon spirals into something unexpected event. which makes Kieran feel guilty and ashamed, soon turn into overprotectiveness, possessiveness and later maybe love. Kieran cannot bear the thought of another man touching her, after the horrible incident. While Alena who lost the hope in life, in future, wants to free herself from this cruel world after the cruelty she went through. she struggles to put herself together. Where Kieran promise himself to bring her back to the life, make her happy, make her live a meaningful life. Between violent streets, ruthless enemies, and fragile trust, their bond grows into something neither of them can control.
In a world ruled by money, lust, and power, can love truly bloom… or will blood consume them both?
