Unhinged | Max Verstappen

Prologue

The glamorous lights of Monaco's elite nightlife cast a radiant glow over the principality as Lando Norris, Formula One sensation and dear best friend of the celebrated songwriter Angélique Leclerc, hosted a lavish and late party. The air buzzed with excitement, and the guest list boasted a constellation of stars, from Charles Leclerc, the talented Scuderia Ferrari racer and Angélique's brother, to Hollywood heartthrob Tom Holland. The scene was set for a night of opulence and revelry, but little did they know that fate had a different plan in mind.

Angélique, resplendent in an elegant gown that mirrored the ethereal notes she conjured on the piano, entered the extravagant venue with an air of grace. As she made her way through the crowd, her eyes met the blue ones of Max Verstappen, the fearless and charismatic Formula One driver. In that moment, a spark of tension crackled in the air, and the clash of two distinct worlds was imminent.

The party atmosphere shifted when Max, caught up in the fervor of the celebration, unintentionally collided with Angélique. A seemingly innocent gesture turned disastrous as a drink toppled from Max's hand, cascading over Angélique's exquisite dress like a careless waterfall. Gasps rippled through the onlookers as the liquid stained the fabric, momentarily freezing time in the wake of the unforeseen incident.

Angélique, her eyes ablaze with a mixture of surprise and indignation, turned to face Max, who stood there with an apologetic yet defiant expression. The collision of their worlds mirrored the shockwaves of that spilled drink, marking the beginning of a rivalry fueled by first impressions gone awry.

Charles observed the unfolding drama with a mix of concern and amusement, recognizing the volatile chemistry between his sister and the formidable racer. Meanwhile, the party continued around them, oblivious to the brewing storm between Angélique and Max.

Little did they know, this inauspicious encounter at Lando Norris's Monaco party would set the stage for a tumultuous journey – one that would transcend the realms of animosity and transform into a narrative of unexpected love and redemption.
