Ivy endures two lonely years in an empty military estate, neglected by Commander Ian, a ferocious wolf shifter who treated their mandatory union like a burdensome sentence. When government matchmakers announce their pairing was caused by a database malfunction, Ivy happily signs separation documents to regain her freedom.
Instead of signing the release, Ian unexpectedly locks the doors and refuses to let his human wife walk out of his territory. The brooding warlord who once avoided her presence now tracks her every step, desperately waging war against galactic bureaucracy to keep her beside him. With her legitimate soulmate stepping forward to claim her, Ivy must decide whether to forgive Ian or escape his possessive grip.
