Summary
‘‘How can I sleep when you’re doing this?’’ he continued, his teeth pushed together, his eyes starting to get red. Max rubbed his eyes again, asking him what he meant, but the Monegasque was having none of it. ‘‘Stop playing!’’ Charles said, tears starting to rise while he pushed Max further along the hallway for a second time.
or
Charles made a mistake after the Monaco GP in 2022, something which he desperately tries to forget about. And he might've, if it wasn't for the fact that someone tries to blackmail him with a video one year later. Charles is sure that Max is the one behind it all, but what if he is not?

Summary
Three days after the mission, the rain hasn’t stopped. The family estate smells of antiseptic, lilies, and gunpowder. A coffin rests in the private cemetery, and Charles Verstappen-Leclerc hasn’t spoken to his husband since the night he was brought home half-broken and alive. Max stands a few steps behind him at the grave, silent, worshipful, blamed for choosing the ‘wrong’ life to save.
No one speaks of what happened inside the facility. Not the ropes. Not the screams through the vents. Not the moment one brother was forced to aim a gun at the other to keep their family alive. They only bury their dead and try to pretend the living are still whole.
But ghosts don’t stay buried long in this house. Not when loyalty has teeth, not when love turns to penance, and not when the ones left behind would burn the world just to see each other breathe again.
This is the story of what remains after survival… love turned sacred, grief turned violent, and the quiet, impossible miracle of coming home.

Summary
“You are severely touch-starved Mr Leclerc," the doctor explained quietly, pushing the tissue box towards his patient. "You're the worst case I've ever seen, to be honest. Your body is screaming for physical affection, which causes this… heightened emotivity."
"Can I just have depression like normal people?" Charles asked, his voice breaking on the last syllable, as he grabbed a tissue from the box.
OR
Charles has a condition. He needs to be hugged as much as possible, otherwise he cries. Constantly. The paddock tries to help. Mysteriously, Max's hugs work much better than everyone else's.
