Marinette Dupain-Cheng was broken-but she was surviving.
After the tragic death of her youngest son, Hugo, in a suspicious car crash, Marinette's world collapsed. Her grief was broadcast worldwide, shattering hearts-especially one long presumed dead.
Adrien Agreste, who faked his death to protect her from a growing criminal empire, sees the news and returns like a ghost from the ashes. Now hardened, tattooed, and leading a brutal mafia built on the bones of his father's empire, he commands a team of assassins-former classmates, forged in shadows-hell-bent on revenge.
But Marinette's torment is just beginning.
Haunted by visions of Adrien and plagued by paranoia, she clings to reality-until her other children, Emma and Louis, vanish. She collapses from the weight of it all. In the hospital, Adrien stays by her side in silence... until a final twist: she's pregnant.
Her parents turn against her, destroying what little remains of her home-until Adrien and his team arrive, merciless and armed. But even with him near, danger creeps closer. Kagami sends obsessive, explicit messages. Nathaniel waits in the dark, thirsty for vengeance.
Then the children are found hanging, beaten, but alive.
Marinette is kidnapped, tortured slowly by those she once trusted. She nearly dies-until she double-taps a hidden Ladybug necklace, signalling her final plea.
What comes next is fire. Blood. Retribution.
A love reborn through suffering. A war waged in silence.
Until he appears... she will burn the world just to see him again.
