Freya fulfills a life debt through a contract marriage.
Rescued from drowning as a child by fisherman Henry, mermaid Freya enters a three-year marriage with his grandson Anderson to repay the debt. She covertly uses ocean magic to fuel his corporate triumphs while he demeans her and swallows his ex Chloe's deceit. When the contract expires, Freya signs the divorce papers and departs for her Admiralty Circle induction. Henry's flash drive exposes her true rank as Sea Goddess, prompting Anderson to beg forgiveness. At the ceremony, Chloe attacks with a dagger; Anderson takes the strike and Freya heals him.
