Surgeon Selena is given by her father as collateral for a $20‑million loan to marry mafia don Lorenzo. She must cope with Dante, her abused, violent stepson. On their wedding night, instead of intimidating the boy, she treats the frightened Dante gently and punishes servants who mistreat him. She also stands up to provocation at a banquet, winning Lorenzo's interest. Lorenzo once suspects her over an assassin's token, yet grows deeply indulgent once the truth comes out. Selena reclaims her late mother's inheritance seized by her father. Amid the bloody mafia manor, she shields Dante and gains Lorenzo's devotion, building her own family.
