Anghel is a troubled, carefree young man who grew up under the care of Ramon, a crime lord well-respected in their territory. He crosses paths with Annie, a young woman who comes from a well-to-do family. With their first meeting a disaster due to the constant bullying of Annie's brother Neil and his gang, Annie makes it up to Anghel by bringing him to their family resthouse and teaches him the basics of self-defense. Soon after they fell in love much to the consternation of Annie's parents and Neil.

When Annie turned 18 Anghel was invited but was treated badly at the party. In retaliation, he ruins the party and was sent to jail. While in jail, it was discovered he got Annie pregnant but lost the baby due to the decision of Annie's family that she gets a forced abortion. Soon after he was released from prison with help from Cora, he and Neil's group come into blows again at Ramon's territory but was saved with the help of Junior Bahala. As punishment Neil and his gang were subject to humiliation by going naked in the streets but Neil was spared upon request by Anghel, being Annie's brother.

Another problem soon compounded Anghel when a drug lord named Johnny Roa infiltrated Ramon's territory. Johnny was able to sell drugs at that territory and won the loyalty of some of Ramon's men. Soon after, Anghel's mother shows up and reveals to Anghel that he is the son of the celebrated criminal Baby Ama. Ramon was able to confess to Anghel how he and Baby Ama became close in prison but their conversation was cut short when they were informed that Johnny's men were coming to their place for a war. Anghel shaves his head bald as his response to the revelation that forever changed him but lost his foster father Ramon in that war. It was revealed that it was Ramon's close associate Boy Dugas who betrayed the group and as retaliation, Anghel kills him mercilessly.

Annie on the other hand, was fooled by Mark, one of Neil's gang inviting her to a supposed meet-up with her and Neil's common friends. She was later on drugged, gang-raped and killed. Neil later on found out what happened to her sister and sought Anghel's help for revenge. Devastated by Annie's death and the ordeal she went thru, Anghel made peace with Neil and teamed up in eliminating Annie's killers/rapists one by one. Anghel later found out that Neil's former gang members bought drugs from Johnny Roa, the same guy that masterminded in killing his foster father Ramon. After all of Annie's rapists were killed, Anghel proceeds to Johnny's hideout to eliminate the syndicate by himself.

Anghel attended Annie's funeral upon the invitation of Annie's surviving family members, including Niel. At the funeral, the policemen presented a warrant of arrest to Anghel to which he surrendered. As he leaves the cemetery, he saw Cora who hugs him one last time before entering the prison much to the delight of other prisoners chanting his real father Baby Ama's name.
