They say love makes you stronger, but not when you're sitting on a throne built on lies. Chat Noir and Marinette explore the complexities of a relationship that was built on anything but the truth, and carefully walk a tightrope as their secrets are revealed. When Chat Noir loses his battle to an akuma and turns into someone Marinette no longer knows - Marinette must explore if it's possible to rebuild the trust they once had - or if that trust was a fallacy all along.
TRIGGER WARNING: This story depicts themes of kidnapping, and some familial relationships are poor.
DISCLAIMER 1: This story is told from the point of view of several of the characters - some victims, some not. In no way am I trying to romanticize any of the actions of these characters. I have never been kidnapped - but this story reflects my experiences in unhealthy/unsafe relationships and the feelings I had/navigated through.
DISCLAIMER 2: These characters do not belong to me nor am I their creator in any way. These characters, along with the universe they take place in belong to Thomas Astruc, the Zag Team, and the creators of Miraculous Ladybug: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir. This story does have some modifications and is not 100% true to the miraculous universe, additionally, none of these events are canon to the show.
