When Adrien goes in search of someone to talk to, he is surprisingly welcomed as his superhero Cat Noir side into the Dupain-Cheng household, leading to spending more time with his classmate Marinette.  While Adrien finds Marinette a bit difficult to understand when they are together at school, Cat Noir sees a different side to Marinette and begins to really value their relationship and maybe even see her in a different light.  When Adrien's teacher, Ms. Bustier, then pairs him with Marinette for a project, suddenly Adrien is put into some situations where it becomes easier to see Marinette as more than "just a friend."  But, will he?

While Adrien and Marinette find themselves becoming closer, Cat Noir and Ladybug are dealing with the growing unease of Paris' citizens who are concerned that supervillain Hawk Moth hasn't akumatized anyone in weeks.  The superheroes decide to take steps to try to figure out Hawk Moth's identity and uncover his plan as they also prepare for a potential epic battle with Hawk Moth. 

This is the first book in the "Secrets Unraveled" Trilogy following Adrien and Marinette's evolving relationship.  The books also delve into revealing the secrets behind the Miraculous' powers, including a new special power of the Ladybug Miraculous, and uncovering the mysteries surrounding Adrien's parents.

In a stroke of luck, a few years ago Adrien enrolled in her school in Paris where she could see him every day. Unfortunately for her, she only managed to say one or two complete sentences around him without sounding like a total idiot.

❝Isn't it sad when you get hurt so much, you can finally say, I'm used to it.❞ Does changing targets really work in the case of love for Marinette and Adrien? Love is not only something you feel, it is something you do. People love you not because of who you are, but because of who they are when they are with you. Love is what you've been through with somebody. Love is when you meet someone who tells you something new about yourself... 💔❤💔 "Forget hydrogen, you are my number one element." ❦ Running away from fear is fear, fighting pain is pain, trying to be brave is being scared, if the mind is in pain; the mind is pain. ❦ It just took a single minute for all the sweet dreams to get shattered as he rejected her and she watched her world burn into ashes. ❦ "You tried to kill the only person who loves all of me unconditionally." His nails dug into his palms with only the Miraculous armour protecting his skin and the blood from oozing out. Tears filled his eyes, "Y-You nev-never did." He confessed quietly. ❦ "Will you be my lover forever?" Her bright blue eyes reflected love. Adrien cupped her cheeks and brought her face closer to his, "Marinette, I will be yours forever." He whispered against her lips. ❦ "It's you and me against the world, Princess." 💔❤💔 A love story of two teens, both broken and hurt at some point. With the responsibility that is rested on their shoulders, would they be able to find each other? Would they be able to love or get lost into darkness? Adrien just wants to belong somewhere. Marinette wants someone who she can call as hers. As the two superheroes protect Paris, they must fight their inner battles and emotions to make their hearts beat as one. Two halves of one whole; ☯ In a fight between love and fate, who will win?

Paris' favorite Marinette Dupain-Cheng has gone missing for good, and Cat Noir just can't settle with the fact that no one seems to care, but he will keep searching, and never give up until she's found, even when all hope is lost, even at the cost of giving away everything he loves. 6/17/2021: STORY RANKED NUMBER 1 FOR #MIRACULOUS AND #MIRACULOUSLADYBUG , THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!🥳🥳 _________________________________________ "I can't give up, I just can't, we must find her." Cat Noir looked with fear and sorrow in his partners beautiful blue bell eyes, that seemed to only glow more in the evening sky, but he didn't pay much attention to that, too much going on in his head as he feared for the fate of the young woman he used to know. Ladybug could tell he was scared, scared they might not be able to find her, but she couldn't tell him the truth, she just couldn't. She had to keep it a secret, no matter how wrong it felt. And if Cat noir knew the truth about this, he would only feel sorry for his dear lady, and she didn't want that. She looked down from him to avoid eye contact, knowing she couldn't explain, and she didn't want him to see the tears filling up in her eyes. _____________________________________________________ Appropriate for all ages! There may be slight violence, and a few kissing scenes, but nothing else. There is no crude humor, profanity, or anything sexual. ~ I do not own Miraculous Ladybug or any of the characters, credits to Thomas Astruc and Zag Animation. ~ You can also find me on instagram, @youreverydayladybug!

!SMUT WARNING!(Later on though) Chat Noir/Adrien, the almighty hero and model of Paris, is in love with Ladybug(also a hero of Paris). The thing that seperates them is their identities. Marinette is in love with Adrien, but is too confused with her own job of saving akumatized victims to progress any further than a one-sided crush. Chat Noir was (once again) rejected by his partner. It hurts, but he would soon get over it with cat puns and his goofy nature. The only thing was that he didn't get over it. Now Plagg and Tikki began to worry that this adoration for Ladybug and Marinette's crush on him could come to the demise of the miraculous. On a visit to Marinette's, Plagg posed a request that changed both of their views on each other. How on earth are the kwamis supposed to keep this up? How long before their identities are the one thing they can't. keep hidden. ... "She threw me in a trashcan!" Marinette flinched, "That doesn't mean that she hates you." "She seemed pretty mad." "You guys are partn-" Marinette stopped talking when Chat leaned in closer to her. 'Oh my god! Is he going to kiss me!? On our first date! Should I let him? Oh sugar cookies, now he's really close! He's about to-' Chat grabbed another cookie and leaned away. "Hmm? Why'd you stop talking?" ... Btw I definitely didn't draw the book cover because I suck.
