Desperate medical student Nicole sells herself to save her dying mother — only to discover the buyer is none other than Chris, a werewolf alpha and her fated mate. As dean of her university, he shields her from the cruelty of her half-sister and her corrupt stepfamily, who are conspiring to force her into an abusive contract. After Chris uses forbidden healing magic to save Nicole's mother, he is stripped of his power and put on trial. To save him, Nicole breaks his heart — but at the final hearing, she appears in a wedding dress, invokes the "Good Samaritan Law," and proposes to him on the spot, marrying him in the courtroom itself. They defeat every enemy, and their bond is sealed forever.
