The story
The short version. Revenge, 40 episodes on YourChannel. Chloe's stepmother pours her champagne for the engagement night, and the plan is simple: get Chloe compliant and married to David, so the family debt goes away.
The champagne is the setup. Chloe's stepmother hands her a glass for the engagement night; the drug hits, her legs go numb, and the men she knows are coming for her are already outside the floor. She has nowhere safe to run, so she runs to the billionaire alpha stepfather and asks him to help her through the night. He makes one ten-second phone call, and every man waiting outside is gone.
By episode five the leverage turns brutal. David cuts Chloe's father's life-saving medication and tells her to come back and beg on her knees, to bark like a dog in public, before a single pill is reconnected. The contract marriage was never just a deal, and the only man who can undo it is the one she is forbidden to want.
The morning after becomes a public announcement. Chloe is to marry David next month, a wedding she is forced into to keep her father alive and out of debt. The stepfather has already seen through her act, and at the family dinner - required of every fiance - he makes it clear he knows the prey walked to him on its own.
