Despised by the high society whose wealth he plundered, yet beloved by the poor whose situations improved thanks to his gifts, the pirate known as "Pagan" sails the seas aboard the ship "Emerald". The marquis of Canewood vows to hunt down and capture the wretched pirate, seeking revenge for his brother's death.

However, when Jade, an extremely alluring and charming presence with flowing red hair and green eyes, appears at his door and desperately asks for protection, the marquis agrees to keep her safe from those who want her dead. Jade is a woman who is bothersome, irritating, yet incredibly attractive. Kane is a man who is noble, strong, and determined. Never before had a girl clouded his mind so, nor had she awakened such desire within him.

But as Jade responds to his caresses and surrenders to them innocently, the two are swept into a web of betrayal that will test the core of their love. An unforgettable adventure of passion and intrigue, filled with sensuality and a romantic atmosphere.
