"She's with you, Diablo?" the rival gang leader sneered, his eyes raking over my trembling body like I was a piece of meat.Javier’s heavy, tattooed hand closed around my hip, his grip a steel vise that pulled me flush against his hard chest. He didn't even blink as he stared the man down."She's my Old Lady," Javier’s voice was a dark, lethal rumble that vibrated through my very bones. "Touch her, and they won't find enough of you to bury."Valentina didn't want to be in the darkest, most dangerous part of the city. But when your estranged, criminal father is murdered and leaves you with a massive cartel debt and a target on your back, you don't get a choice. Running for her life, a blown tire forces Valentina into the one place even the cartel fears to tread: the Kings of Chaos Motorcycle Club compound. Desperate for a place to hide, she accidentally stumbles right into the middle of a deadly standoff. To save her from being collateral damage, Javier "El Diablo" Vargas the ruthless, terrifying President of the MC does the unthinkable. He lies and claims her as his own. It was supposed to be a fake claim to keep her breathing. A one-night arrangement until the heat died down. But when morning comes, Javier makes it crystal clear that the heavy iron gates of his compound are locked. He isn't playing a game, and he has no intention of letting her run again. The cartel might be hunting her, but the devil himself has already caught her. Javier will gladly burn the city to ashes to protect what’s his. But can Valentina survive being loved by a monster?
