Damsel? Check. In distress? Check. Dealing with it? Kinda.
Lacey Vigil has been trying to break up with her city’s resident billionaire superhero, Steel Heel, for a while. It’s not easy when she keeps getting kidnapped by his enemies. When her ex is late to the rescue, an evil henchmen swoops in to save her instead (he only drops her once). Lacey might have expected the scary blue mutant with wings and a tail, but not his ice coffee addiction or fanged, devil-may-care smile.
Ellis is an unethical lab experiment, a bit of a slacker, and honestly kind of a fuckboy. It wasn’t his idea to join the family business, but he wants to see his dad’s work restored to him. He’s always had a thing for the reporter from Channel 6, but when Lacey asks for his help investigating where the mutants are coming from, he refuses. Despite thirsting over the magnitude of her ass, he knows she just wants him for information. They’re on opposing sides – whoever heard of a superhero’s girlfriend and supervillain’s henchman working together?
Lacey and Ellis keep tangling in everything from breaking into secret laboratories, to surprise bagel dates, to a balcony strip tease. The closer they become, the less they can avoid the wedge between them– Steel Heel. Ellis sees the way living at the top of Steel’s tower shapes Lacey’s worldview, her people-pleasing complacency in the status quo, even when it means ignoring the shitty ways her ex treats her.
Ellis urges Lacey to stand up for herself and finally leave her superhero ex on her own terms. Everything Lacey learns about Ellis makes her question what she thought she knew about the mutant crisis— it contradicts her ex’s narrative. Lacey wants to believe Ellis is genuine in his feelings for her, but she’s not sure if she can trust her heart.
