❝If I was going to give up out of sheer rejection, what was the point in loving you in the first place?❞ *** Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Adrien Agreste, childhood friends to teenage enemies. Torn apart at an early age due to reputations and outside influences, not a day goes by where they aren't at each other's throats. But when secret feelings and hormones get in the way of their hatred for each other, 'going at each other's throats' may gain more than one meaning.
