The Wild Dog Bodyguard is a BL drama set against the backdrop of the Sicilian Bernini mafia dynasty. The story follows Leon, a young man rescued from a death-row orphanage by Matteo Bernini, the ruthless second son of the family. For ten years, Leon serves as both Matteo's personal bodyguard and his secret lover, willingly acting as his shield, cleaner, and scapegoat in the family's violent power struggles—driven by unwavering devotion and gratitude for being saved. During a covert mission to seize the Godfather's seal, Matteo sends Leon into a trap, knowing it is a death sentence. Captured and brutally tortured, Leon overhears Matteo dismissing him over the phone as a "disposable thief" and learns that his rescue was nothing more than a 50,000-euro bet to "train a submissive hound." His decade-long faith shattered, Leon awakens from his delusion, bites his torturer, and secretly flees the estate to start a new life in a coastal town. He ultimately returns to the family ceremony as an independent auditor, kills his arch-enemy, and accepts the kneeling submission of Matteo— the new Godfather.
