Beneath the Patch/ Chibs Telford x OC

Riley has spent her entire life doing what she's told. In her father's world, loyalty to family comes before everything else, and children don't question the sacrifices they're asked to make.

So when his debts and bad decisions catch up with him, he settles them the only way he can.

With her.

Given no explanation and even less of a choice, Riley is sent to Charming with a single order: marry a man she's never met. An outlaw biker. A stranger called Chibs.

But Filip "Chibs" Telford never asked for a wife, and Riley never agreed to become payment for someone else's mistakes. Bound together by a deal neither of them wanted, they are forced to navigate the violence, loyalty, and unbreakable bonds of SAMCRO while trying to survive a marriage built on obligation instead of love.

Set alongside the events of *Sons of Anarchy*, this story follows two people trapped by duty, family, and promises made for them-until they have to decide whether the life they've been given is one they're willing to accept.
