Two predators marry on impulse, neither knowing the other's true teeth.
Forced into an unwanted ceremony, the city's most feared godfather — secretly the mythic underground surgeon Dr. X — grabs a stranger at the altar. That stranger is a corporate prodigy who spent years pretending to be crippled to lure rivals into a fatal trap. They marry on the spot, she burying her dual command of crime and medicine, he locking away his calculating ruthlessness. Their shared roof becomes a daily duel of wits as each probes for cracks in the other's mask. When she deliberately exposes herself and is kidnapped, he storms in alone to rescue his supposedly innocent bride, only to confront the question of who really saved whom. Meanwhile, the true hunter watches from the shadows, waiting for the masks to fall.
