## Biography

### Early life

The first memory that Axel has is being strapped up in a backpack meant to hold kids as he took a ride on his fathers neck. This had been his life for as long as he could remember in how his father acted. When it came to his mother, he had no idea who she was. Once he entered school age, he started seeing his father less. Instead he would be left with old lady Ellsworth which was a older woman who lived in the same apartment complex as them. Despite being in the same complex, their apartments couldn't be any different. Axel's was rundown and had two bedrooms which was really a closet turned into a bedroom once Axel got old enough that he needed a room. Old lady Ellsworth kept her place clean with vintage furniture and funky wallpapers. There were two full bedrooms as well as one and a half baths. The smell of food always wafted through the place and she always had candy to offer. Ellsworth never had any grandkids because one of her kids passed away early and the other was a lesbian who had no interest in kids.

Axel was treated like the long lost grandson returned and this made Ellsworth a protected member of the Hells Hounds. It was bittersweet whenever his father would take him to her apartment to leave him with her because Axel never knew how long his father would be gone. Sometimes it would only be for a few hours whereas other times it had been weeks. Life got adjusted to this but his father was sure to be home for every birthday and holiday. The important things as he would explain to Axel that he was out there making a living for them. He was helping make a place in the world where their club would be widely known but it took a lot of focus and time.

Once Axel turned 14, his father returned and they went out to buy a old broken down bike. They began working on it together which was the time that he was given the choice to continue with school or start being a prospect now. This was a hard choice but Axel liked the stability of school. Learning new things, especially science related, had been something he always looked forward to. While writing wasn't his strong suit and he was probably even worse at reciting what happened 200 years ago, he excelled in numbers and science. It was something that he desperately wanted to which Zaros didn't argue. He would be allowed to finish school and with him being 14 now, it meant that he could stay home alone without going to Ellsworth.

That didn't mean he *didn't* go to her place, because why wouldn't he? There was free food, a TV that he was allowed to use, a computer that she had no clue how to use, and someone to talk to when he wanted to talk about school. Of course at night, he opted for his closet bedroom where he had all of the knick knacks that he found comfort in. It was in high school that he found interest in two things; the first being music and the second being Maya Foster. Starting with music, it had always been something he loved but never something he took the risk to try himself until one day he had picked up one of the guitars in the music class. Sticking around as he taught himself how to play and stayed late after school so he could learn. It was something he gradually got good at.

The next thing, or really person, he found interest in was Maya Foster who was a girl that took no shit from anyone. It was something that had fascinated him and like a moth to a flame, he was hooked on her. After a few times where they hooked up, he eventually asked her to be his girlfriend to which she agreed. Being his girl meant bringing her around his large family and exposing that his father was the leader of the Hells Hounds. At first he had started off slow; introducing her to the two people who were in the club that were closest to his age. Those people being Gracie Collins and Cameron Foxx which helped make things easier as he worked into explaining what they were apart of.

To his surprise, she accepted it with a lot more ease then he expected her to. While he was working up the courage to introduce her to his dad, turmoil started within the club. Something about someone stealing from it so they were getting a bit rowdy internally. There was a lot of anger from his father as he handled the situation to which reminded Axel of who his father was. This made him realize just the type of life he'd be introducing Maya to which made him start to rethink it. It would be the better option to end the relationship instead of bringing her around these people who could be dangerous so he did. Without offering much room to explain or giving her much room to talk about it. The following summer while at a party, the two met up and thereafter hooked up. After the hook up when he found himself laying with her unable to speak his mind until finally all he could ask was for her to take him back.

Maya agreed to taking him back and the two started dating again. The relationship went well this time around despite the emotional distance they both balanced. Axel gained the courage to just bite the bullet and introduce her to his family. It had went a lot better then he expected to. All of those at the club immediately started making jokes about her being his future old lady to which he had to explain what that meant as well as the fact that it was them poking fun at him. Once again, Axel was on top of the world or what it felt like. This blue eyed beauty had made him feel things that he hadn't felt before. One night during a conversation with Maya where they seemed to really open up, she had decided to leave abruptly. The next day at school was when she broke up with him without an explanation again. Watching her walk away from him without giving so much as a second glance had hit him hard. Trying to formulate the words that explained why wasn't easy so all he could do was leave as well. It had been a shitty start to his junior year.

Two days before Christmas when the snow was heavy and Axel showed up to give Maya a gift was when they ended up in bed together. Subsequently, they also ended up agreeing to get back together. Axel was sure that the last break up was the last so this was the final time they would get back together. It was something the two could work on and maybe even get married after they graduated. Teasing's of her being his old lady would come true but he wasn't really bothered by it. A year passed them by where they were steadily together well into their Senior year. The day after Christmas wasn't supposed to be the day Axel saw Maya; they had spent some time together on Christmas Eve and a little bit of time on Christmas together. The next time they would see each other wasn't supposed to be until two days after Christmas but there she was at his door. His girlfriend stated she needed a place to stay and he offered his home. There was no other explanation and he didn't mind. Originally planning to let her have his small room while he slept on the couch but that first night, she under her breath asked him to sleep in the bed with her so he did.

Unbeknownst to him, her moving in had caused issues with his father. It wasn't like she was an awful guest to have there because she cleaned up after herself and kept her things out of the way. The most of a mess she left was in the small closet turned bedroom that the couple shared where she'd leave clothes on the bed occasionally or on the small floor space they had. Whenever Maya wasn't home, his father and him argued about it often. A few times, he had even let it slip that he believed the girl wasn't a good fit for him. This infuriated Axel even more which often resulted in him storming out of the house and getting in trouble for it later on. Zaros didn't take that from his son but the punishments for private manners were hosted privately. It wasn't long before their Senior year that Zaros went to his son with an ultimatum; be dishonorably removed from the club which would put Maya and him at danger or to break up with Maya for good. Axel grit his teeth at the choices before storming off.

The break up had been one of the hardest that he had to do. Refusing to let her get close to him or touch him because he knew that he'd fold like a chair. At this point, it wasn't even about not wanting to be in the club but he knew what dishonorable removal meant. An ass kicking on sight and if Maya's name was dropped as a reason, they'd force Gracie to turn against Maya as well as some of the old ladies to kick Maya's ass whenever they saw her. It would become hell for the both of them so the best choice was to let it go. Once the words were out there and he announced that he wouldn't be home tonight so she could stay there to leave in the morning, he escaped. Heading towards the club house where he stayed the night stewing in his anger. When he went home the next day, all of her stuff had been gone. It was almost like she was never there and all he could do was sit on the bed with his head in his hands. With all the love he felt for his father, he had taken away the most important thing to him. A break down ensued that involved him throwing stuff as well as breaking a few things.

That night when he went to the club house to find Gracie not there was when he questioned; apparently she was helping Maya adjust to living with her. It hurt him a lot more then he would admit but instead he just did his best to pretend like it didn't matter. Graduation came and went relatively quick which was when he became a full fledged member. The road became his main home as was accustomed to the rest of the club. Being apart of something that had such a intricate working had all he had known after all and the more he was on the road meant the less time to stop and think about it all.

### Season 2

Not long after his twenty-second birthday was when his father announced that they had been given a job which led them to Red Lieu, Pennsylvania. The details of the job were kept secret to Axel and Cameron which pissed Axel off whereas Gracie got let in on parts of the job. It wasn't until a confrontation that he found out what they were there for which made his stomach turn. All he could do was follow through like he was told because even if he was being set up to take the position his father had, he was still just a member at that time where his father was the president. During a run in with Maya, a little spat happened where he tried to give her a faint warning with little success.
