Omega Resilience
River, a young wolf, grew up in a household ruled by her domineering father. She had learned to keep quiet and to stay out of his way, for fear of his violent outbursts. Her father's gambling addiction had caused him to sink further into debt, and he had turned to Alpha Colten, a cruel and ruthless pack leader, for help. Colten had agreed to pay off her father's debts, on the condition that River would be given to him as payment.
For years, River had been living a nightmare, imprisoned in Colten's pack. She was starved and beaten, her fear growing each day as she waited to see what he would do to her next. She was relieved when she heard that Alpha King Killian was coming to the Silver Creek pack. The rumors of Colten's unsavory activities had reached Killian's ears, and he had decided to take action. However, Killian's arrival had been prompted by something else entirely - a discovery that had filled him with a burning rage. When he had stumbled upon River locked in a dark, damp cell, he had been consumed with fury. He had recognized her as his mate, and he had been horrified to see her in such a state. She had been broken, her spirit crushed by Colten and his son Jacob. Killian's heart ached for her, and he vowed to protect her from further harm. With her trust shattered and her body bruised, it would take time for River to heal, but Killian was determined to help her find peace and happiness once again.
