(I don't know what this AU is called but they aren't F1 drivers in it) Charles hates his downstairs neighbour - he's an arrogant, stuck up, mannerless, hot - no, not hot - person and Charles hates him. What he hates the most? How Max's penpal never writes his address properly - does the man not correct him?

ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢ: 18+ He's used to being in control, used to getting what he wants. But when a stranger catches his eye in a crowded bar, something shifts. He lives a life where every move is calculated and trust is like a rare currency, this stranger changes everything Max thought he understood about power and desire. He'll stop at nothing to get to know him, pushing the boundaries between what could be dangerous and an obsession. (Mafia AU + Lestappen)

(Updates regularly | Mature content ⚠️| Not a Slow-burn obsession | Mafia x Police forbidden romance) Five years into a relationship built on routine, Max knows exactly where Charles keeps his secrets, he just pretends not to look. When a body turns up on the southern coast of France, Max is assigned to a case that refuses to close. Evidence vanishes. Witnesses forget. Every lead circles back to a man who insists he is only a businessman, and a brother whose death no one seems eager to avenge. Between blood and the law, there is a space neither of them are supposed to occupy 'a place at the limit', where pursuit becomes permission and silence is mistaken for innocence. Max investigates what he already understands and Charles waits at the apex, ruling what he cannot afford to confess. The question is no longer who committed the crime but whether Max was ever meant to stop him, or simply stay close enough to follow, long after the line has been crossed.

In a world where gods play favorites and monsters hunt in shadows, love might be the deadliest curse of all. Max, son of Ares, has lived his whole life under Hera's cruel blessing-a curse that destroys anyone who gets too close. He's the best fighter at Camp Half-Blood, feared for his temper and his blade. Then Charles arrives-a golden boy with a past he won't talk about, and anger he knows how to use. The gods whisper that Charles is the second half of the key to ending a threat older than Olympus itself. Thrown together on a quest across ancient ruins, and monster-infested roads, Max and Charles will face curses, trials, and the darkest corners of their own trauma. The deeper they go, the more the line between hate and something far more dangerous begins to blur. But with a god's legacy at stake and a curse that punishes every bond Max makes, falling for each other might not just be forbidden-it might be fatal. Percy Jackson AU

He's everything Charles shouldn't want. So why does it feel like Max is the only one who really sees him?
