Vera, a designer working behind the scenes at a luxury jewelry house, loses her job after her work is claimed by someone else and her fiancé betrays her. To make things worse, she brings home a three-hundred-year-old coffin — inside it, a "wax figure" the Worth family threw away as trash: Cedric, a vampire who has slept for centuries. They strike a deal: he'll help her reclaim her designs and her chance to compete, and she'll help him find his lost gemstone. Crushed by the wealthy family's pressure, Vera relies on no one. She fights her way into the jewelry competition with her own designs, proves her originality in public, wins the championship, and puts "VERA" back in the flagship store's window. And the vampire who owes her rent decides to pay her back for the rest of his life.
