Things were starting to look up for Marinette as museum curator. She had a prestigious new exhibit to run, and an ace team to help coordinate it. That is until she crosses paths with the internationally infamous cat burglar, aptly named Chat Noir. She wants to hate him, but this suave and charming thief has his eyes set on more than just her exhibit's priceless Bastet artifact.

After battling an Akuma who could show people's Red Strings of Fate, Cat Noir is left broken. This is the story of what happened after the battle was done and the heroes went home. When faced with a devastated and depressed Adrien, can Marinette help before it's too late?

"Secrets," Chat purred, waving the photo out like a little flag. "I want secrets. Twenty-seven pictures worth of secrets. And you'll give them to me. One picture at a time." [Shameless Marichat]

Marinette traced her fingers down the smooth lines of the magazine, a blush creeping to her face. It wasn't just his toned, muscular body that set her aflame, although that was certainly a bonus. It was his eyes. The way his body appeared, languid like a summers day. His body said relax but his eyes said devour. She'd seen those eyes before...

"I'll be fine, Alya. It's only a couple blocks." "But it's ten at night, it's not safe. Especially with that Chat Noir prowling around." AU

After an Akuma attack goes wrong- Marinette finds herself in 1920's New York City with an entirely different Cat Noir. Meanwhile Adrien finds himself stuck trying to handle a very unfamiliar Ladybug. Both of them come to realise you don't know what you have until it's gone. Ladynoirx2, Adrienette, Marichat
