On the night of her engagement party, a woman confronts her fiancé, Max, for failing to show up and finding him with another woman. He dismisses her, calling their union a marriage of convenience. Devastated, she finds solace with a mysterious stranger who warns her he's no saint, leading to an intense encounter where he gives her 'Lilith' as a safe word. The next morning, her father berates her for ruining the party and angering Max's powerful mother, Mrs. Crowe, threatening to sell her late mother's company if she jeopardizes the marriage.
