I need to prioritize more... Oh well. This story has been front and center in my brain ever since I watched this show. I swear Season 2 needs to have actual character development, plot, Adrien/Gabriel family fluff, and a Chloe redemption arc ( with her being a miraculous holder) before I can say I'm truly a fan of the show. Also, Chloe-haters, this story is NOT for you. I honestly like Chloe more than Marinette.
WARNINGS: GORE, NONCON, DARKNESS, & YAOI (I can explain this time, I swear!)
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Miraculous Ladybug, but Thomas Astruc does.
I need to tell you guys: PLEASE don't get discouraged by finding my chapters short. They are incomplete because I don't have the time to do it all in one go. Just know that I update the chapters, so they WILL become full chapters and so I apologize for not telling you guys sooner. Please bear with me! 🙏
The Paris air felt warm and comfortable as Opal Alaire busied himself with preparing his mother's shop, Strangely Beautiful; Opal thought the name could use work but his mother, Amora, believed fully that Strangely Beautiful was the perfect name for their line of business. A place selling enchanted jewelry requires a unique name, Amora said proudly. Opal sat a cardboard box full of emeralds on a wooden stool next to the open entrance door.
"Home, sweet home", Opal muttered. The 16 year old was... unique in appearance; his snow white hair that reached the back of his knees was tied back into a loose ponytail and individual stands lightly gleamed of other colors, similar to a white opal gemstone; Opal's bangs were just millimeters from covering his eyebrows. On the right, next to his petal pink plump lips, a beauty mark rested and his skin was milky. The only trait Opal didn't really appreciate was being a Hermorphrodite; the soft small breasts and pussy were easy enough to hide, but his curvy figure and big hips made Opal feel... embarrassed. Though Opal preferred wearing clothes that concealed most of his body in any place that could be deemed public, he wore a pale yellow T-shirt tucked into jean shorts and plain white socks in sea green converse.
The shop wasn't huge but it was big enough to be both a store and a home. The shop had dark wooden flooring and cream colored walls with horizontal lilac stripes; hanging from the ceiling were maroon and turquoise paper lanterns, each having either a beautifully detailed bull or koi fish painted on them. Two dark mahogany cases lined either wall, each containing bracelets and necklaces of different designs and gems settled on plush cushions; cases stood near the display counter, both empty, and a large square beige carpet that said "Welcome!" in Japanese characters laid in front of the wood and glass entrance door. Opal went behind the counter with the box and opened it, admiring the green gems that shone and glimmered with his mother's polishing and magic.
The boy turned on the miniature TV that rested on the right side top of the display counter and listened to the weather report for the week while carefully placing the accessories behind the display counter glass. Though he was disappointed that there were no cloudy days coming up, Opal was startled when a news channel theme blared out and turned to see what news was so important to interrupt the nice weather channel music. What Opal saw made him almost drop an emerald pendant.
"Attention, citizens of Paris! We come to you live on the scene of the newest Akuma attack with Ladybug and Chat Noir valiantly trying to subdue the villain, HeartAche. She's been causing people to brutally assault their loved ones; all she has to do is give them a single kiss to the cheek. Please, we advise you: stay indoors and away from-". The purple haired female reporter was stopped short when a woman appeared next to her. The new arrival had her black hair in a bob and her eyes were red and full of malice; she wore a flowing red dress that stopped at her knees and on the chest of her dress, a design of a bright red heart with a lightning bolt going through it was stationed. She had on knee high black boots and black gloves that reached her elbows; she must of have been HeartAche, judging from the reporter and cameraman running away, screaming. What caught Opal's eye was the stark purple locket around HeartAche's neck and the location of the villain: she looked to be just a few strokes away from the shop.
"Astonishing, isn't it", a amused, light voice asked from behind Opal. Startled, Opal whipped his around to see his mother leaning against the counter, eyes gleaming with curiosity and mirth. Amora was tall and youthful, despite her age of 1, 005; her long forest green hair had petal pink streaks and was wrapped in a neat bun on top of her head; she had lovely hickory brown eyes and pouty pink lips. Amora had a beauty mark underneath her left eye; her figure was something to be admired with its full curves and ample bosom; she was wearing a caramel brown silk v-neck sleeveless shirt and beige suit pants with shiny black heels and a amber stone bracelet was around her right wrist. Opal sighed in relief and frowned at his mother's carefree tone.
"Yeah, I guess it is. These Akuma things don't really look like anything back home", Opal said. The creatures on Xia were much more ferocious and sometimes bigger... Not mention deadlier. Glancing back to the TV, Opal was surprised to see a picture still there; the news camera wasn't broken, just slightly damaged. The camera screen was cracked from hitting the concrete ground and the picture quality was decayed slightly; from the camera's position, the Eiffel Tower was in view, with HeartAche right in front of it. She was just standing patiently, a smirk on her face, waiting for something. Suddenly, two figures leaped down a few feet from HeartAche, each posed for an attack.
"Ah~, Ladybug and Chat Noir, 'bout time you showed up", the villain said playfully. Opal could only guess which figure was who; the figure on the right was wearing a red catsuit with black spots on it and, judging from the curves Opal could see in the suit, they were also female; she had navy blue hair tied in twin pigtails and navy blue eyes behind a Ladybug themed mask that only covered her the area around her eyes; Ladybug was twirling what seemed to be a yo-yo threateningly, eyes never leaving HeartAche. The person next to Ladybug had to have been Chat Noir; he had sun blonde hair and catlike green eyes behind a black mask; he wore a catsuit himself, except entirely black and seemingly made of leather; he had black cat ears on his head and a black belt around his waist, another midnight belt hanging of the other to mimic a cat tail. He was holding a silver staff in front of his body, looking prepared for a fight.
