Charles Leclerc has always been haunted by the Monaco Grand Prix-a race that should've been his, yet has slipped through his fingers year after year. The streets of his hometown, the city that knows his name, have become a painful reminder of unfulfilled dreams and a legacy he can't outrun. In 2024, the stars seem to align, and for the first time, Charles is on the verge of breaking his curse and claiming victory in the race he's been destined for since childhood.

But the road to glory is never smooth, especially when the past comes crashing back into his life.

Amélie, a close family friend and once his fiercest rival in go-karting, has returned to Monaco after years of silence. Their bond was once undeniable-two young souls bound by racing-but their paths diverged when Amélie could no longer bear the weight of the sport, nor the heartbreak of watching Charles lose time and time again. She walked away from him and the racing world, leaving him with nothing but memories and regrets.

Now, she's back. Not to cheer for him, but to watch him face his demons one final time. And as the stakes rise, so does the tension between them-old feelings resurface, raw and unhealed, forcing them to confront the ghosts of their past. Will Charles finally conquer Monaco and fulfill the dreams he's held for so long, or will the unresolved weight of their past love tear him apart in the final moments of the race?

Amidst the chaos of racing, the battle for the Monaco crown, and the presence of those who both support and challenge him, Charles must confront the one thing that's always been out of his control: 

His heart.

Stroke of Love || Charles Leclerc || CL16 by ririana1
29 parts Ongoing Mature
Struck with the reality of how fast and fleeting life was, Charles had come to value cherish and love three things in his short time on Earth. 1. FAMILY ---- loosing his Godfather Jules Bianchi and his father whilst still very young taught him to value and cherish every moment be it joyful or disappointing. You never know when it would be the last time. 2. VALUE OF FRIENDSHIPS -------- Life as an Formula 1 driver is not an easy one, no one in the world could and would understand the life better than the 20 drivers on the grid. Cherish every laughter, fail, every podium, celebrate every crash that doesn't end up in death. Rivalries are fleeting but friendships can and would they last a lifetime. This does not mean he won't fight for a WDC should he be able to. This maturity came later on. He is still a work in progress 3. LOVE---- He loves love, wants love and has found love in his current relationship. OR HAS HE?

"You're dead to me, Charles," she gasped. "You promised, Mar!" he yelled after her. She came to a halt. Without a second glance, she replied, "And I've kept mine for way too long." -------- Margot has loved Charles since they were kids hitting the karting tracks and dreaming of futures bigger than their small heads could fathom. But when Charles became a driver in Formula 1, soaring through the ranks while people whispered his name in awe, the boy who once held her hand and promised forever disappeared into a world of speed, fame, and shallow affections-leaving Margot and her heart behind. To him, she is a memory of the past he can remember or discard at will. To her, he's the ache she can't forget and the betrayal she can't forgive. But when a single drunk dial and an everlasting heartbreak bring their lives crashing back together, Margot must decide whether the boy she loved still lives inside the man who broke her, and if her love is worth rebuilding from the shards he left behind. ❗content warning: strong language, mature scenes, death, panic attacks [FINISHED] ⚠️ This is a work of fiction!

A few hours. A few hours in the big metropolis to change her life forever. Now she's returned to Monte Carlo, determined to put an end to her past and start living again. But it's not that simple. Her return means facing Charles, the man she once loved more than anything. The man she had to left behind to follow her dream. To avoid the pain, she throws herself into parties, new encounters, and desperate attempts to move on. But fate has other plans.
