Crown & Claws
A 'Miraculous Ladybug' Royal A/U
By sunkissedwoolf
Prince Adrien of Chattenoire lives under the oppressive rule of his father, King Gabriel, who sees his son only as a political tool. The king is preparing to marry Adrien off to solidify alliances, but Adrien feels trapped, yearning for freedom and purpose. Secretly, he roams the kingdom as Chat Noir, a masked vigilante who aids the oppressed and searches for his mother, the vanished Queen Emilie.
Marinette, a talented but lowly seamstress working in the palace, is unwittingly drawn into a rebellion when she is commissioned to sew secret messages into the court's luxurious gowns. Little does she know, the handsome prince she dreams of is also the masked rogue who frequently visits her late at night, charming and playful as Chat Noir.
As the rebellion intensifies, Marinette discovers the existence of the Ladybug Miraculous, a legendary artifact hidden within the kingdom that could shift the balance of power. When Chat Noir and Marinette cross paths both in the palace and in the shadows, their growing connection puts them both at risk. But will Adrien have the courage to defy his father and fight for his kingdom alongside the woman he loves?
