It had been a few days since Victoria's first time out in the streets of Pairs masquerading as She-Wolf and it had been uneventful at most. School went on as usual and the people of Paris had quickly adjusted to the new villain that was Hawkmoth.

Chloe had quickly become obsessed with the red and black heroine of Paris, Ladybug like nearly every other Parisian. Most people had forgotten about She-Wolf and Chat Noir, only thinking them of sidekicks since Ladybug had anxiously become team leader despite her insecurities. Victoria found it amusing that her sister didn't like She-Wolf but kept the irony to herself.

At the request of She-Wolf, they had created a small patrol routine and even had their sections and would contact the other if there was anything suspicious or the work of an Akuma. They were quickly becoming a good team even if nothing was happening especially at night but Victoria knew it would only get more busy and chaotic as time moved on.

Chole and Victoria had spent their weekend shopping, it was usual for the Bourgeois daughters to do so. They lived for the lavish things in life and Victoria was none the happier to swipe her black credit card for anything she wanted. But that weekend they went shopping for an upcoming event, it was Adrien's birthday. They had scratched their heads hard, trying to figure out the best present for the lonely boy.

Victoria had brought him a black Polaroid camera so they could make new memories that she could actually participate in and not just remember. She also got him an expensive silver signet ring with the head of a stoic-looking wolf on it. She loved the irony and the inside joke, she already knew his secret identity as Chat Noir and she wanted to give him a little push. They were thoughtful gifts that he would happily expect, mainly because they were from her and any tiny thing would make him smile. Chloe had gotten him a new expensive cologne and a satin silk scarf.

Chloe and Victoria had been driven to school by their usual chauffeur, they got there late since Victoria wanted to stop and get coffee. They met up with Sabrina outside the school with their gifts in gift bags. Chloe was most than happier to flaunt the Prada gift bag with a smug smile.

"Do you think he'll like it?" Vic asked her sister as they got out of the limo, she was still having doubts about the gifts she brought. He was rich so it was hard to buy someone who could get whatever they wanted as a gift.

"Of course he will, that ring was expensive," Chloe told her, patting her shoulder. She looked around for Adrien and smiled when she saw him, yelling, "Adriekins!"

Victoria smoothed down her sliver hair as they got closer to Adrien and Nino who were blowing bubbles and noticed Marinatee was peaking behind the retainer wall of the stairs.

"Happy birthday, Adrien!" the two cheered, smiling at him and he looked surprised. Chloe threw herself on him, hugging him strongly and pulled away bringing her gift bag up to his face.

"Thanks, Chlo," he smiled at her and grabbed the bag, then turned to Victoria with a playful expectant eyebrow. She smiled softly at his boyish charm and hugged him around his neck softly, not trying to hurt him and kissed his other cheek.

She pulled back and handed him the gift bag, not noticing his blush but Nino did. "Thank you, Vic," he said pulling out the unwrapped box - too messy in her opinion - and smiling at the camera.
