A Biker's Tale Angel Stathoulis was the firebrand daughter of Michael "Steel" Stathoulis, the ruthless president of the Hell Hounds Motorcycle Club. She was known as a storm in leather, unapologetic, sharp-tongued, and untamed-a true product of the chaotic world she was born into. But even storms can be broken. Beneath the hard shell she wore so proudly was a girl fractured by the weight of loss, betrayal, and her father's suffocating rule. When her father signed her life away to Julian DeLuca, a notorious mafia boss with a penchant for control and chaos, it felt like the final nail in the coffin of her freedom. The ink barely dry on the contract, Angel found herself thrust into a world even darker than the one she'd grown up in, and chained to a man who was as damaged as she was dangerous. Julian DeLuca wasn't your typical mobster. Once a golden boy with dreams of a different life, tragedy had turned him into a hardened and demented kingpin. His smile was sharp as a blade, his heart buried beneath layers of scars. The only softness he allowed himself was the memory of the daughter he'd lost and the vengeance he still carried for those who'd taken her. Their relationship was a battlefield of wills, barbed words, and unexpected tenderness. In the quiet moments, when the storm inside them both settled, they found solace in each other's broken pieces. Julian's steady hand cleaned her wounds, and Angel's fire reignited something in him that he thought was long dead-hope. But the darkness that surrounded them wouldn't let go so easily. Between the betrayals of the Hell Hounds, the relentless games of the mafia, and the ghosts of their pasts, Angel and Julian's story was as much about survival as it was about love. Sometimes, two broken people can find a way to fit their jagged edges together. Sometimes, they can create something whole-something stronger. But in a world like theirs, nothing comes without a cost.
