My lovely kitties cuddled with me and Marinette on my bed, keeping us warm. They are definitely sacred to Bastet. They always meow and purr on me like I'm their master.

"Good kitties" Marinette pets some of them.

"My kitties are getting along with you very well, Mrs. Noir" I teased her.

"They are, after all, I was Lady Noir briefly," Marinette said.

"And if we are lucky, you'll become my Mrs. Noir and my Mrs. Agreste-Cheng" I stroked her leg.

"Oh, kitty. You have a long way to propose to me" Marinette scratched my chin.

"Hmmm…..How many times have I declared my love to you?" I chuckled.

"Like a lot as Cat Noir," Marinette said.

"And I finally captured your heart in my paws" I kissed her forehead.

"Yes you did" Marinette touched my hair.

"Meow" I purred in her hands.

"You know, even if you didn't become a criminal, we would still be stuck fighting akumas and sentimonsters. I'm glad you really did become a criminal that lead us to defeat your father" Marinette said.

"I became a hero again too. But I hope there's no one to succeed him, the butterfly miraculous is kept safely" I said.

"And the last akuma purified away from Lila" Marinette added.

"Yup. And speaking of my father, last week he's still a madman. Therapists and psychiatrists tried everything they could to cure him mentally but he's crazy to see my mother" I said, growling lowly that my father is beyond gone.

"Oh no. The divorce hit him hard" Marinette sighs.

"Yup. But eventually, I'm gonna have to visit him again." I sighed.

"You better be careful, Kitty," Marinette said, rubbing my shoulders.

"Don't worry, milady" I held her hands as I promised her.

"Just because you have nine lives?" Marinette kissed me.

"Yeah" I nodded.

"Do you ever get tired of saying that, kitty?" Marinette asked.

"Nope. Well, you got three, your civilian self, Multimouse, and Ladybug" I said.

"Funny. Just don't get your whiskers tanked when you see your father, Adrien" Marinette being very serious.

"Got it" I nodded.

I got to the asylum as Cat Noir, like last time I'll speak to him as Adrien. At least this time these patients are in bulletproof glass cells. They glanced at me but I did my creepy stare. They backed off seeing me as I approached my father's cell. The guards saw me and I told them to turn off the cameras and speakers because this is just between me and him.

"Leave us," I said and got inside the cell.

"Cat Noir" Father looked up to see me.

"Hello, father. I see you are still not mentally cured. I thought I told you that therapists and psychiatrists are trying really hard to help you" I said as I leaned against the wall.

"That's where you were mistaken. I just want your mother back" Father replied.

"Claws in" I transformed back to Adrien, "Father, I'm afraid mother is too heartbroken. Ever since Ladybug and I brought her back, she was angry and scared of what you become."

"And I still love her!" My father glared at me.

"She never wanted a husband who causes chaos in Paris all just for mine and my lady's miraculous. Joining them can cause consequences. And for the record, no one is succeeding your villain activity" I said.

"We'll see, my son. Lila is very cunning and very loyal to Hawk Moth" Father said.

"Too bad, Ladybug is keeping the moth miraculous. So no use for it now" I said.

"One can never be sure. There's more miraculous out there neither you and I know of" Father said.

"Like you tried with the Eagle miraculous in New York and the prodigious in Shanghai? I don't think so. I still remember that you used Miracle Queen to create an army of miraculous. You were a menace, father. And you tried to harm Master Fu. You also attacked Alya and her family because she was Rena Rouge. Mother did not like what you have done. Especially that day you became Scarlet Moth to akumatize everyone. That was very wrong of you" I glared and I know he's about to attack.

He lunged at me and I caught his fist, and flipped him over, locking his head with my legs and pinning his arm, "Even as myself, I can fight" I said.

"You stubborn boy! AAAAGH!" He groans in pain.

"Don't make me hurt you, dad. I'm being very serious! That's enough!" I warned him, "Calm down!"

He took deep breaths and calms down as I released him, standing back up on my feet.

"You destroyed my life!" My father yelled.

"Destroyed it?! You've done that yourself!" I yelled back.

"I tried everything to get your mother back!" Father punched the glass table as it shattered.

"By trying to abuse the wish?! Father, if you wished her back, I would be paying a terrible price. I would be taking her place! Or worse, destroying the universe! Mother wouldn't want that! And I'm not trying to be selfish, I'm trying to tell you that abusing a wish doesn't set things right! Be careful what you wish for! Plagg, claws out" I transformed back to Cat Noir so I can take my leave, "I'm sorry father but I guess I'm no longer your son anymore. Mother was right, you became a madman"

He didn't say a word after I disowned him as my father.

"He's all yours," I said while heading out. I hope he isn't serious about what Lila is capable of besides lying.

Later at noon, I was at the Akuma Nightclub having a glass of milk as usual because I'm so not in a good mood today. There was no music here because it's not nighttime yet.

Volpina saw me but she's not akumatized because it's a costume. She wears it so she can sneak into the nightclub without her age ID. She knows who I am underneath my mask but she never told anyone about it.

"Hello Cat Noir" She sat next to me.

"Going fox again I see" I replied.

"And I see you haven't been agreste-ive today" Volpina made a pun and it wasn't even funny.

"Mind your own business," I said dryly.

"Your old man still hasn't changed has he?" She guessed.

"No. And he's not my father anymore" I said and took a sip of milk.

"Pity. He was my master as Hawk Moth" Volpina said.

"Not anymore, Lila. You don't know what he's like" I said and finished my milk.

"He's your father," Volpina said.

"No, he's a madman. He doesn't care about anyone but himself. The reason he akumatized you and his victims is because he uses them as puppets to get what he wants. Villains don't keep promises, they break them" I made my way to sit on the sofa. The same one where I broke the guy's legs last night.

"I actually enjoyed being akumatized, I choose to be," Volpina said.

"Your lies ruined many lives, I haven't forgotten," I said.

"And yet you becoming a criminal broke your lady's heart," Volpina said.

"I became one to survive! Her revealing her true self changed my ways and I'm not telling who she is and for the record, her heart is healed!" I almost exploded with anger.

Volpina sat on my lap, "And yet deep down you still are a street cat"

"A whole new street cat," I said.

"And whatever happened to tasting blood from your claws?" Volpina stroked my chest.

"I had to drop it to not frighten people now that I'm back to heroics," I said.

"And you're also a very bad poser, Cat Noir. We are both nocturnal animals while Ladybug is at the bottom of the food chain" Volpina scratched my chin.

"She's purrfect for me," I said.

"Not for long" Volpina replied.

I pushed her off my lap and grabbed her fist and flipped her over, locking her head with my legs and pinning her arm, "Stay away from my lady, Lila. Or better yet, stay out of my life!" I gripped her neck with my legs.

"AAAAGH!" Lila screamed in pain.

I removed my legs off of her and stand up, "And one more thing, I'm still the cat's meow" I chuckled and made my way to leave.

I got back to the mansion to relax after this long day, "What a day. My psycho dad and that Volpina" I said to myself.

"At least you have the new life you always wanted without that bossy and strict father of yours. And you have your precious kitties" Plagg said.

My cats cuddled with me on my bed, meowing and purring at me.

"Plus a loving mother and my purrfect lady" I added to it.

"And that tattoo" Plagg laying down on my tattooed arm.

"It was worth it" I replied.

"You also said you wanted a Ladybug symbol tattoo on your wrist" Plagg reminded me.

"Yeah, until next time," I said.

"I know you lovers are young but when are you gonna make her as Mrs. Noir?" Plagg asked.

"When we graduate I think," I said.

"Technically you'll have to do proposes twice," Plagg said.

"What?" I raised a brow.

"As Cat Noir, he'll propose to Ladybug while Adrien proposes to Marinette," Plagg said.

"That makes two rings" I replied.

"Yes. Both of you have two lives" Plagg said.

"Exactly. Well, I'm looking forward to that day" I said, sighing dreamily.
