Elena Nuit was never meant to live in the shadow of legends, let alone be born from one. She wasn't chasing podiums, engines, or the roar of the crowd. That life belonged to her father, Raphaël Nuit, a name that echoed through every circuit, a man hailed as untouchable. The greatest Formula One driver of his time. The kind of man people believed couldn't fall.

Until he did.

One second, Elena was in the stands, heart in her throat, watching him race like she always did. The next, his car collided with the wall in a blur of falmes and twisted steel. No final lap. No miracle escape. Just silence.

The kind of silence that swallows everything.

They said it was an accident. That these things just happen. But how does the world's most flawless driver just... lose control? No answers. Just headlines, condolences, and a legacy she never asked to carry.

Now Elena is stranded in a life that doesn't feel like hers. The cameras are always watching. Strangers treat her like royalty. But all she wants is to scream and for the noise to stop. The grief, the fame, the pressure it's all too loud.

So she left. 

Only to come back again to support her friend, Enzo who landed a position in Mercedes after Lewis Hamiliton left and went to Ferrari. 

But theres only one problem. Charles leclerc, who was once a childhood bestfriend, now stranger. 

The one person she thought would never leave. But he vanished when she needed him most without a word, without a reason. And now that he's back, he's cold. Distant. Bitter. Like she was the one who disappeared. Like the years they spent side by side never meant anything at all.

Elena Nuit didn't choose this life. But now she has to decide what to do with the wreckage it left behind.

➶。˚ part four of the RACING HEARTS series Carlos Sainz's career had seemingly hit its peak-or so everyone, including Carlos himself, believed. After a heartbreaking breakup with his long-term girlfriend, he found himself struggling to navigate life. Instead of entering his villain era on track, he started partying and sleeping with different women to fill the void. His lack of focus started to be evident on the track as well. While his teammate, Charles Leclerc, became the World Champion, Carlos was fighting to stay in the top ten. Alexandra Serrano had worked tirelessly her entire life. As the sister of a former karting driver and famous model, Marco, she always wanted to be known for more than just being "someone's sister." With a passion for motorsport and writing, she became a journalist at a renowned newspaper. In her role, she couldn't ignore the lifestyle changes and poor performance of a particular Ferrari driver. Naturally, Carlos became the subject of several of her articles. When these two very different people cross paths, they instantly know they will never be friends. Instead, they become rivals, each determined to bring the other down. Thus begins the great war between them. Despite their enmity, they share one common trait: ambition. A drive that surpasses their rivalry and the hatred they feel for each other. Or perhaps, beneath all that animosity, there is something even stronger. Something greater and unexpected. © all rights reserved, lxvenderhze 2024-2025
Little Lion Man | Max Verstappen by tonysnarky
53 parts Ongoing Mature
❝They call him the Dutch Lion.❞ ❝Yeah? To be honest, I think he's more like Scar from The Lion King, but whatever.❞ In the high-pressure world of Formula 1, Red Bull Racing is crumbling. Half the team has quit, morale is at an all-time low, and Max Verstappen-the reigning champion-is battling not just a losing season but a mountain of frustration, anger, and self-hatred. Known for his icy demeanor and explosive temper, Max feels more isolated than ever, unwilling to accept the changes around him. The last thing he wants is a new Personal Assistant. Enter Emilia "Emmy" Jones, a vibrant redhead who seems to radiate sunshine wherever she goes. She's everything Max despises in this moment of chaos-optimistic, talkative, and insufferably cheerful. To Max, she's a storm he didn't see coming, and no amount of biting sarcasm or coldness can drive her away. Emmy is determined to do her job, even if it means braving the tempest that is Max Verstappen. What Max doesn't realize is that Emmy isn't just some cheerful distraction. Beneath her bright smiles and playful energy, she's hiding her own storm. She's not the unshakable beam of positivity he assumes-she's a force of nature battling scars of her own. And while Max can't stand her constant happiness at first, it doesn't take long for him to see that Emmy isn't just sunshine. She's a hurricane-wild, fierce, and unpredictable. And she might just be what Red Bull, and Max, need to survive. Because sometimes, it's the storms that reshape everything.

George Russell never wanted to get involved with Max Verstappen. It began with something small-a handkerchief pressed into his hand, a look that lingered too long. "Nuh-uh. I don't take back something I've already given away. So..." his gaze dropped briefly to the cloth before flicking back up to George's eyes. "You keep it." Max was relentless, always appearing where George least expected him, always asking questions George refused to answer. Every time George tried to push him away, Max only stepped closer, until George panicked and told the lie that changed everything. "I already belong to someone." Max's smile faded that day. George carried the weight of it in his chest, torn between the truth he couldn't say and the feelings he couldn't kill. Meanwhile, Carlos Sainz had his own storm brewing. His new rival, Charles Leclerc, wasn't just another name on campus-he was fire. Their first meeting ended in fists and insults, and from that moment, they were inseparable enemies. Every hallway became a battlefield, every shared space an arena for their sharp tongues and sharper glares. Yet beneath the anger was something neither wanted to admit-something that burned hotter than hate. "I hate you!" "Well. I hate you more, captain." Carlos told himself he despised Charles. Charles told himself he only wanted to win. But when their fights dragged them too close-pressed against lockers, words falling into silence-they both realized it wasn't victory they craved, but each other. Two stories unfolding in the same place. George, hiding his heart behind lies, while Max refuses to let him go. Carlos, drowning in rivalry, while Charles tears his world apart piece by piece. And somewhere between the fights, the lies, the jealousy, and the stolen moments, four boys find themselves caught in the kind of chaos that feels a lot like love. "I've tried hating you, forgetting you, replacing you-but still, I want you."
