forget the way the engine purred beneath me that night. He would’ve loved it, seeing his little girl line up on the grid with boys who thought they were kings of the road. When the flag dropped, so did their jaws.
They didn’t know what hit them. I ate every corner alive, hit every straight with precision, and made moves they wouldn’t dare attempt. By the time the finish line came into view, I wasn’t just leading—I was so far ahead, I could’ve stopped for coffee. The crowd was losing it, roaring like the sky had cracked open.
When I crossed the line, I yanked off my helmet and let my hair fall, making sure everyone got a good look. The silence was deafening—well, except for one guy in the back who started laughing like he’d just witnessed history. Turns out, 𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐝.
Then came the silence. I could’ve let the quiet swallow me.
I could’ve walked away.
But something inside me broke, and the break was my release.
I wasn’t going to let his car sit idle.
Not now. Not ever.
was never just a hobby: it was a 𝓁ℯ𝑔𝒶𝒸𝓎. Mulana's father was a low-key legend in underground racing. When everyone's asleep, he'd sneak her into his car, teaching her how to navigate sharp turns and feel the roar of the engine beneath her. He'd often said the car was an extension of the driver's soul. When her father passed away, he left Mulana not just the car but a passion and determination that burned brighter than any engine. His words, "If you want it, take it," fueled her ambition.

𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐚 made waves in the racing world when she entered a prestigious underground racing club known as THE APEX CIRUIT. While the club didn't explicitly ban women, it had always been dominated by men who saw the sport as their territory. The unspoken rule was clear: women didn't belong.
𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐧𝐭 supposed to be on the track that night—the “all-boys” race, as they called it. Not because it was official, mind you, but because nobody with a 𝐘 chromosome wanted to share the asphalt with a girl who’d outdrive them blindfolded. they didn’t say it outright, of course. It was all slick smiles and condescending words, things like,
“You wouldn’t like it out there—it’s rough,”
𝐨𝐫,
“You’d be a distraction.”..?
Distraction my 𝐚𝐬𝐬. They just didn’t want there to be a possibility to be humiliated.
So I let them have their little club. They’d never see me coming, literally I slapped the name “Mulan” on the entry form—𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥, just ambiguous enough to slip through the cracks. Then I showed up, curls tucked under my helmet, gloves tight, wearing a borrowed suit two sizes too big. Nobody looked twice.

Landon Chase is the kind of guy who’s had everything handed to him, but he still works hard to be the best.

“You’ve got talent, I’ll give you that. But talent only gets you so far. You’ll learn that when you’re chasing my dust.”

“You might want to follow me closely on the track—take notes while you’re 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 there.” (𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬)
