Summary
January 2026. When Darren Cahill retires at sixty after Jannik Sinner’s fourth Slam and a clean sweep of the indoor swing, the tennis world holds its breath to see who’ll take over the twenty-four-year-old omega phenom—the first in Open Era history to reach world no. 1 (and to hold onto it for back-to-back years, no less).
The answer: Carlos Alcaraz, forty-three, retired almost-legend, multi-Slam champion, clay court specialist, and eternal golden boy of a bygone Spanish tennis generation. Once Nadal’s mirror-apparent, now everyone’s favorite DILF in post-retirement punditry, adored for his explosive joy and charisma.
On paper, it’s perfect: fire meets ice, creativity meets calculation, alpha meets omega. In practice, it’s combustible.
OR: It begins professional. Then quickly grows precarious. Then too close. By the US Open summer swing, the lines are blurred beyond recognition. By the time the first heat hits, everything burns.

Prince Eames is everything no one wants him to be. He spends his days in discordant chaos, reveling in the insanity his personality alone can create and earning the country's disdain in the process. After making one mistake too many, the royal family has no choice but to hire Arthur, a strait-laced, no-nonsense American guard who will stop at nothing to put Mr. Eames back in line.

Summary
Wherein world number one Jana Sinner and world number one Carlos Alcaraz are about to learn just how difficult it is to keep things casual when you're anything but.
(alternatively, the female Jannik AU no one saw coming, least of all me)
