The Donna
At just a few months old, Myra was stolen in the dead of night; torn from her father, her brothers, and her twin. Escaping the orphanage, surviving the streets, and blind to the people that 'saved' her, Myra didn't just endure. Myra clawed her way out, and she burned everything in her wake to ashes. Seventeen years later, she's not just alive. She's powerful. Dangerous. Untouchable. Myra built her empire from the blood she's bled, the blood she's spilled, and secrets she'd kill to protect. It's not just her identity she's concealing - it's the cracks. She's back. But she's not the little sister they imagined. Can she keep everything hidden when a twist of fate drops her into the lap of her so-called family?
Mine, and only MINE! | MLB Story
Adrien is torn. He feels ashamed that his total obsession, head to toe, for ladybug is leading to nowhere. He gets tired. He can't go on about his love life, because of her, and it gets pretty frustrating. Plagg comes and tries to aim Adrien to another way, and gives him some peaceful advice. So, Adrien realized who could complete his broken heart. Although Plagg kind of gave the example on his own way, by any means of cheese, it still made a meaning to the lovesick boy. Kagami. He chose Kagami. The relationship between the two was always platonic, but could Adrien change that? Maybe take her on a date, that kind of romantic stuff so he could at-least fulfill his gape? Kagami seemed the better person for that.. On the other hand, just as Adrien and Kagami started dating, Marinette was, of-course, devastated. She needed constant reminding to not let Adrien and Kagami get on her nerves, but it was no use. That is - Until, the peaceful Luka came, and calmed her. Soon, he started taking Adrien's place and eventually took Marinette as his girlfriend. Now, on both hands, Adrien is madly jealous, though can't admit it that loudly. He glorifies Marinette, after her glow up for the past few years, but can Adrien choose between either? Or could he make Marinette fall for his ego? Little did anyone know the evil plans set upon them. Would they be able to handle the harsh truth? Would they be able to see through their enemy? Let the fate lead them on...
