Summary
“I’m in love with you.”
Well, fuck.
Charles takes a deep breath. He’s let down a lot of people before, but none of them ever meant as much to him as Max does. He thinks he’s always been kind in the past, but as he thinks through all of his I’m sorry, I’m not interested’s and I’m flattered, but I’m not really looking for anything right now’s, he realises that none of it should be said to Max. Max deserves so much better than that.
“Max, I—” He clenches his jaw again, rubbing his sweaty palm against his jean-clad thigh. “You know I’m straight.”
Max nods once. “Yeah, I know. Believe me, I feel so fucking stupid.”

Max confesses he's in love with Charles.
Charles goes on a journey.

Summary
“Lando won.”
Charles’ breath hitches, an uncomfortable knot appearing suddenly in his throat. He didn’t see the celebrations, but he can picture them because they’re what he’d do, he thinks about it all the time, the way he’d be unable to stop smiling and how he’d probably cry and how his family would hold him and his team would sing for him—
“I know.”
Max’s face pulls down, and then the expression is gone.
“You’ve been spiralling about it for months,” Max says. His voice is oddly soft. “Every time we see each other, you are ranting about how unfair it is, that they don’t deserve that car. And now you have nothing to say?”
He hasn’t been spiralling. That’s ridiculous.
“It is what it is.”

Lando wins the 2025 WDC. Charles struggles to cope.

Summary
An old FIA rule says that unmated omegas aren't allowed to race in any category of motorsport.
Because of that, Charles Leclerc has been hiding as a beta since he first presented as an omega-until a breakthrough heat destroys how hard he's worked and reveals his designation.
Ferrari, facing a major loss in sponsorship money, offer him a choice: leave Ferrari and motorsport forever, or agree to an invite only auction for the rights to mate him, with proceeds filling the hole in the budget.
Charles comes up with a plan to save himself, get an alpha he trusts, get Ferrari's money back, and keep his seat.
Unfortunately, Max Verstappen comes up with a plan, too.

Summary
“You know… Those posters for missing cats and dogs always include some sort of reward.”
“Are you asking me for money?” Charles asks, sounding utterly bewildered.
Max cackles loudly, and it comes out a little hysterical. “No, Charles. I meant—”
“Ah,” Charles says, and then, without any hesitation, drops to his knees between Max’s legs, hands reaching for his belt.
or; a fat tabby cat, a presumptuous bottom, a ski trip, and an endeared max verstappen.
