Wall Street financial magnate Alexander suffers from severe touch deprivation. He accidentally meets Julian, a bartender who carries the scent of cedar, and develops a pathological obsession with him. Alexander anonymously funds the treatment for Julian's critically ill mother, then uses a companionship agreement to keep Julian by his side. Julian is repeatedly targeted by the schemes of love rival Victoria and con artist Sebastian, but through each crisis, his bond with Alexander deepens. Alexander eliminates all his enemies, confesses his anonymous identity to Julian, proposes grandly, and holds a magnificent wedding. The obsessive tyrant is healed by Julian, and the two become mutually dependent, spending their lives together.
