In the shadows of modern-day Moscow, where power is earned through fear and loyalty is bought with blood, Eteri Tutberidze reigns as the ruthless head of the powerful Tutberidze Clan. Calm, calculating, and always several steps ahead, she has built an empire that controls underground businesses, political connections, and the city's criminal underworld. To her allies, she is an untouchable queen. To her enemies, she is a nightmare. Across the city stands the Kuznetlova Syndicate, the only family powerful enough to challenge the Tutberidze empire. At its heart is Daria Kuznetlova, the intelligent and fearless daughter of the well known mafia boss. Raised to become the next leader, Daria has mastered strategy, negotiation, and combat from an early age. Behind her elegant appearance lies someone willing to sacrifice everything to protect her family's legacy. In a city where loyalty is fragile, power is everything, and betrayal can come from anyone, only one family can emerge victorious... unless they discover that their greatest threat has never been each other.

At Sambo-70, they say Eteri Tutberidze can see a skater long before the rest of the world does. Some arrive chasing greatness. Others arrive because they have nowhere else to go. Yelizaveta Pokrovskaya arrives carrying a secret. Back at Angels of Plushenko, her best friend, Valeriya Miloslavskaya, still believes nothing has changed. Every day Yelizaveta promises herself she'll tell her the truth. Every day the words remain trapped behind a smile, because some goodbyes become impossible the moment they are spoken aloud. But every waltz begins with a first note. In the silence of Sambo-70, nothing is ever truly silent. It is the sound of blades carving the same ice, over and over again. Landings reverberate through bone until pain becomes muscle memory. Here, hesitation is trained out long before fear. Every fall, every correction, every repetition becomes another part of the melody-one Yelizaveta has no choice but to learn. For Yelizaveta, survival has another name: Aleksandra Vostokova. A rival who seems to exist one step ahead of her, waiting at the end of every practice, every competition, every impossible standard she has yet to reach. Then there is Eteri. Yelizaveta tells herself she only wants to become the skater Eteri sees in her. But every correction lingers longer than applause. Every silence settles beneath her skin. Every glance begins to feel less like coincidence and more like choreography. Because some waltzes do not ask whether you wish to dance. They simply begin. And no matter how desperately Yelizaveta resists the music, every turn of the blade carries her back to Eteri.

Two coaches. Two philosophies. One ice rink. Alexandra Bennett wants to change the future of figure skating. Eteri Tutberidze wants to protect the legacy she built. When their athletes become rivals, the world watches a battle of ambition, sacrifice, and power unfold. Everyone sees the performance. Nobody sees the cost.

At seventeen, Anastasiya Vetrova was everything the Russian figure skating world expected of a future Olympic champion. She was Eteri Tutberidze's brightest student, the one everyone believed would define the next generation. Then, without warning, she left. She walked into the camp of Eteri's biggest coaching rival, Evgeni Plushenko, taking not only her talent but Eteri's pride with her. The split became one of the biggest scandals in figure skating. Six years later, Anastasiya's career is over after a devastating injury. With nowhere else to go, she accepts the one position no one believes she'll survive: Assistant coach at Eteri's rink. The last person Eteri wanted to see again.

The courtroom still smells like old paper and too much polish. Astrid doesn't understand most of the words being said, but she understands tone now. Adults have tones that decide things long before they admit it out loud. Her feet don't touch the floor properly, so she just swings them a little, watching the movement like it belongs to someone else. Her mother keeps reaching for her hand like it's something that might slip away if she doesn't keep proving it exists. Jos doesn't look at Astrid for most of it. Not really. Max Verstappen isn't the only famous athlete in the Verstappen family. Jos couldn't bare to look at the girl, so he sent her to her estranged aunt: Eteri Tutberidze. also a Crack fic to indulge my delusions also cross posted on AO3

At nineteen, she is already a name known in arenas domestic and international. Born to a Russian father and a mother from England, Carmen has stubbornness within a doubt. Carmen's auburn hair is what stands out, but her grey eyes is what really pulls people in. Especially one specific blonde coach. Carmen has been skating since she was two years old, long before she understood what winning meant, when other things mattered than gold. Carmen's record speaks louder than words ever can, a few to name include, U.S. Junior National Champion, U.S. Senior Silver Medalist, ISU Junior Grand Prix Final Champion, World Junior Champion, Grand Prix Final medalist, European Championship medalist, and a consistent podium presence across international competitions. Every program, every score, every fall, documented, though rare. However her pain goes far beneath the surface. Far deeper than any blade could cut.
