His Mute Princess

Chapter 47

Adrien transformed once he knew everyone was asleep. He had done some snooping around earlier as Adrien, wondering into rooms that didn't make him look suspicious.

His best bet seemed to be his father's office, which he had not checked yet.

Chat blended in well in the dark night. He left out of his bedroom window and sneaked in through an office window. He had disabled the security alarm temporarily earlier.

His father was always in his office so there had to be something there to give him clues. He started with the corners of the room. He opened every book. Lifted all the decorations and furniture. All trying to be as quiet as possible.

Nothing. It was all just boring modeling and fashion paperwork. Chat sighed and sat down. He faced the portrait of his mother and his face dropped. He missed his mom so much. It had been 3 years since she disappeared and he still missed her as if she had disappeared the previous day.

If his dad was Hawkmoth, was she the reason? Chat frowned and stood up. He hadn't checked the portraits.

He walked over to it and tried to take if off, but it wouldn't come off. Once side was completely stuck, the other side was a little loose. Chat blinked in suprise. Did it open? Was it some kind of door.

Chat pulled on it but it wouldn't budge. He took his staff out and used that to pry it open. Sure enough, it opened to reveal hidden items.

A shiny blue hair clip, much like the bee miraculous, caught his eye first. He picked it up and his eyes widened. Is it another miraculous?

It did look like the bee miraculous and even had an animal, a peacock. The next thing to catch his attention was a red book.

He took it out, placing the haif clip back in. He flipped through the book, confused at the symbols and pictures. He landed on the ladybug page and gasped. He kept flipping through it. He saw more and more heroes, all the miraculouses he had seen. Including the peacock and Hawkmoth.

Chat put the book down and closed the portrait. He took a step back. He had his suspicions already, yeah, but now they were actually true. He was right. His father had to be Hawkmoth.

.

Marinette got to school rather early, so early only some kids were there. She was just too curious to see if Adrien found anything.

The doors were already open so she walked in. She walked into classroom to see a sulking Adrien. He was there along with 3 other people, but they were in the back. His arms were stretched across the table and he had his head down. She frowned.

She sat down next to him and poked his arm. He looked up and Marinette blinked in surprise. His face was pale and he had bags under his eyes.

'Are you ok?' she asked. Adrien looked down. "No, turns out I was right." Marinette let out a little gasp.

"I found some incriminating stuff in his office. I found another miraculous and a book with pictures of our miraculouses and more."

'And what are you going to do?'

"I want you to come over still. There has to be more. I mean, I've never seen him do anything and he's always in his office, so there has to some hidden door, right? Some part of the house I have never seen before? Somewhere where he does his secret things without being noticed."

Marinette nodded, 'Ok.'

"Thanks princess," Adrien smiled. He took her hand and gave it a kiss. Marinette smiled and blushed.

Class was starting soon so more students had walked into the room. All oblivious to the conversation.

.

Adrien and Marinette stood up and turned to Alya and Nino. "You guys coming?"

"I'm not dude," Nino replied. "I have to make something up, you guys can go ahead."

"Alright, see you later babe," Alya gave him a kiss on the cheek.

The trio left the school while Nino walked into another classroom.

"So, we never had that discussion," Alya spoke. Adrien turned to her. Looking over Marinette who was walking in between them.

"That you're Chat Noir and Marinette knows."

"Oh right. I forgot about that."

Marinette smiled sheepishly. "Do you know who Ladybug is?" Alya turned to Marinette. Marinette nodded.

"No way!!! Do I know who she is?!"

"I already answered that, Alya."

'Yes and no,' Marinette mouthed. "Wait what?! Now I have to know who she is!"

Marinette shook her head, 'She'll never let that happen.'

"You run the Ladyblog so, yeah."

Alya blinked, "Wait, so she knows I know?" The couple nodded. "She was mad, but I'm still alive," Adrien replied.

"Do you think I can get an interview with her?!"

"Whoa there, chill Alya. I'll talk to her." Alya grinned from ear to ear.

"So, are you friends with Ladybug? Or is she jealous of your relationship?" Alya asked Marinette.

Adrien groaned loudly, "Alya, there is and was nothing between me and Ladybug. She's enga—"

Marinette shoved her elbow into his ribs, cutting him off. Adrien let out a painful groan. "Ladybug is ENGAGED?!"

"Shhhh!!!! Keep it down!!" Adrien groaned out. "Ow, fuck, Mari, you have a strong hit."

'I'm sorry! Are you ok?' She took a hold of his arm. "Yeah I'm fine princess. I'm impressed," Adrien grinned.

"Can we go back to Ladybug being engaged?" Alya asked. "Huh? Oh yeah, she's engaged, don't you fucking dare post that in the Ladyblog! I know where you live!!" Adrien glared at her and wiggled a finger.

Alya rolled her eyes, "I know, I know."

'Can we go eat now? I'm starving,' Marinette pouted. 'Plus we're gonna run out of time.'

"Oh shit."
