After the gala party was over, Cat Noir protects his Ladybug so that vampires don't try to get crazy with hearing her heartbeat just because she's a living person.

"Don't worry. No one but me will have you" He said to her.

"You always have your paws on my heart" Ladybug teased.

"More like my batty wings on your heart, milady" Cat Noir chuckled.

"Oh yeah, Count Noir" Ladybug smirks.

"Wang Fu was right, I'm like a wingless bat," Cat Noir said.

"Still the same funny cat" Ladybug giggled.

"So, Mr. Noir, you finally defeated your real father?" Dracula said.

"I did, but I couldn't bring myself to kill him," Cat Noir said.

"He's still your father but he failed to be the father he was supposed to be. And you said your mother is in a coma? That's not good, my son. But that's up to you whether to let her Rest In Peace or inject your vampire blood to revive her" Dracula suggested.

"I've never tried with my blood. Has this ever happened before?" He asked.

"Yes, a few times in my time. Some of my people chose to inject vampire blood into humans from the Black Plague. It saved their lives" Dracula explained his story.

"I see, well milady and I need to discuss this in private until I've decided," Cat Noir said.

Inside Cat Noir's room, he and Ladybug discussed if they should revive his mother with his blood or not. He did want to bring his mom back but he has no idea how she'll react that the Agreste family is broken. Or that her son is a vampire now.

"This could be your chance to see her again, Kitty" Ladybug said.

"Yeah, but if she wakes up, she'll be horrified at what has happened before my father became a maniac. She's gonna be heartbroken" Cat Noir sighed but this is his chance to save his mother from her long comatose.

"I know. But she'll be grateful she's brought back by her son" Ladybug gently touched his cheek.

He closed his eyes and purred on her hand, "Yeah, but she'll be shocked to see I'm a vampire that can't walk in sunlight"

"Oh yeah, that of course," Ladybug said.

"But it's worth a shot. I'm still a child and by the time I'm 20, I won't age anymore. I can't leave my mother there to suffer and miss out on the world that's changing" Cat Noir said.

"I know, I won't leave you either" Ladybug said.

"Thank you milady," Cat Noir said.

Just then her earrings beep, "Uh oh! I guess I was Ladybug all day. Do you really wanna know who I am? It could make your heart beat" Ladybug said.

"Since you saw who I was, I better be ready," Cat Noir said.

"Tikki, spots off!" Ladybug detransformed in front of Cat Noir.

His undead heart did beat slowly due to the shock he's feeling. Then it started beating too fast like a stake in the heart but he was frozen at who this girl is.

"Please, say something" Marinette looks down, Cat Noir could only stammer in shock, "I guess now you know me, you don't like me anymore," Marinette said in shame.

"No, it's just that I just found out one of my closest friends is the one I admire most in the world. It's you Marinette" Cat Noir hugs her.

"I guess we're even now, Adrien," Marinette said, nuzzling his neck.

"We were both oblivious for too long, my princess" Cat Noir said.

"Yeah, we were," Marinette said, she leans in and kissed Cat Noir on the lips.

Feeling her tender smooth lips on his, Cat Noir kissed his princess back. He pinned her against the wall and wrapped her legs around his waist, deepening the kiss. Marinette's heart sparked with love as she has now expressed her love for both Adrien and Cat Noir.

Soon, they pulled away and the feline stroked her legs, "Mine"

"Heh, still the naughty boy since the last time you seduced me" Marinette giggled.

"Hmm.....it's the vampire nature I'm going through, milady" Cat Noir smirked seductively.

"Mmmhmmm?" Marinette raised a brow.

Cat Noir does his cute puppy eyes to make her believe him but seeing her resist, it was a bit funny that she's trying not to fall for that again.

"It's not even that cute" Marinette huffed.

Cat Noir morphed into a wolf to look adorable while he's making the cute puppy eyes and the whimpering noise.

"Awwww so cute!" She got down and hugs him.

"Always works every time, princess" He licked her cheek.

"Hehehe good boy" Marinette pets him.

A while later, Cat Noir told Dracula that he'll do it. But he wanted to make sure that vampire blood in the human blood veins doesn't cause side effects.

"I assure you, my child. Your mother will still be human. Vampire blood cures any sickness, that's all" Dracula said.

"That's all I need to know," Cat Noir said.

"My prince, I just want to see you happy. Your father once told me that you're just like your mother. A mother's love is what you really need. To heal mentally from living with your heartless father giving you emotional abuse" Ladybug said to her love.

"She's right, my son," Dracula said.

"Yes, she is. We'll give it a try, Dad" Cat Noir said.

"You two are so adorable like adoptive family" Ladybug giggled.

"You could say that, milady" Cat Noir said.

"Now come on, Prince Charming, we got Snow White to awake," Ladybug said as she unifies with the horse miraculous to transform into PegaBug.

"Voyage!" She opens a portal to the mansion.

Cat Noir remembers the butterfly logos around the mansion that Ladybug thought the suspect was Gabriel Agreste. He guessed he was fooling them so he wouldn't be suspected.

"So where is she?" Ladybug asked.

"In there" Cat Noir brought her to his mother's portrait.

He looked back at Felix's memory of the buttons on the portrait. He touched it and felt the buttons and pressed them. The platform that they are standing on dropped down. The elevator brought them to some kind of sanctuary environment underground with white butterflies and a huge window.

"Wow, this is Hawkmoth's lair?" Ladybug looks around.

The elevator stopped and the door slides open, "Yup. I can't believe my father lied to me all along. He told me that mother disappeared" Cat Noir said, walking up to the casket and pressed it as the lids open to reveal a woman.

"Emilie Agreste" Ladybug said.

"Yes. Now let's get started" Cat Noir said.

"Lucky charm" She summoned her power and out came a syringe needle.

"Okay hold still," Ladybug said as Cat Noir unzips his upper body to let her take a sample of his blood from his shoulder.

He didn't flinch from the syringe and Ladybug took a small amount of his blood, "When she wakes up, we have to leave. We can't interfere with her surroundings" Cat Noir said.

"Okay" Ladybug nods as she injects Emilie.

Cat Noir uses X-ray vision to see his blood running through his mother's veins, "It's working, milady. Let's go!" He said.

Cat Noir hopes that the side effects of being in a coma won't harm her from her awakening consciousness. Who knows how long she'll remember the moment she went into a coma brings back her memories.

It had been over an hour and Adrien was having a little bit of blood from Marinette. It was still daylight outside and the curtains covered his large bedroom window. Her upper body was exposed but she had her bra on so that her blood doesn't stain her shirt. She gave him permission to look into her memories.

"Ahhhhh..... Adrien" Marinette moaned as he drank.

He saw the memories of her trying many times to tell him her feelings but failed. Even the one when she kissed him to break him out of Dark Cupid's hate spell. Especially those times he fell under evil spells from akumatized villains.

Then he saw that she told Alya her Ladybug secret, "She told her before?" He thought.

Then he saw another memory of Bunnix taking Ladybug in her burrow to an altered timeline of Paris flooded and no life but there stood Cat Blanc with a twisted and aggressive behavior trying to get Ladybug's miraculous. His eyes widen in shock, then in relief when she saw she prevented that future from happening. He stopped drinking her blood so that she won't feel drained.

"Better?" Marinette held a tissue to her neck.

"Yeah......" He wiped his mouth clean, "I never realized you tried to confess your love to me"

"Yeah, I messed up a lot back then," Marinette said.

"That explains your stammering. Very clumsy of you, princess" He chuckled.

"But you did see the memory of me getting into an altered future where you were akumatized?" Marinette asked.

"Yeah, I rather not know because I saw you looked traumatized and scared of.....him," Adrien said.

"I hope it never happens again," Marinette said.

Adrien hears his mother downstairs, probably in the office looking at the video footage of her husband's insane plans to get the ladybug and cat miraculous.

"Get dressed, my mother is downstairs," Adrien said.

"Okay" Marinette puts her shirt and jacket on.

He took a deep breath, even if he has no pulse but to remain calm to see his mother. He came downstairs and went into the office.

"It can't be true. Did he do all this?" Emilie was distraught seeing the camera footage.

"It's true, mother" Adrien came into the office.

"Adrien? Is that really you?" Emilie turns around and sees her son.

"Yes and no" Adrien said.

Emilie then saw the next footage of the day her husband accused a DJ boy for being a bad influence and that Adrien looked sad.

"Dad changed a lot since you fell into a coma," Adrien said.

"But why?" Emilie asked.

Adrien sighed and took a deep breath, "He told me you disappeared and.....he distant me for too long, never came to spend time with me but sent Nathalie for my safety. For 2 years, he sent out akumas to use his akumatized victims to steal the ladybug and black cat miraculous to wish you back" Adrien explained, and he clenched his fist, "But he failed and.....I found out he's the supervillain the whole time and he told me he was doing it for us but I can tell that his insanity blinded him from knowing that the wish has a terrible price to pay in exchange. So now, he and Nathalie are in jail for terrorizing Paris. And I'm......I'm not human anymore" He finished.

"What are you then?" Emilie was confused by the last sentence.

"Mom, do you believe in werewolves, vampires, ghosts, or other supernaturals?" Adrien asked.

"They are real like the miraculous?" She asked.

"Yes, an unfortunate night it happened," Adrien said.

"What do you mean?" Emilie asked.

"Mother, for a month I.....I was bitten and......I became a......"Adrien couldn't say and he simply showed her his fangs instead.

"A vampire!" She gasps.

"Yes, I can no longer be in sunlight anymore" Adrien replied.

"Oh my god. Does everyone know this?" Emilie asked, a little shocked.

"Not everyone knows," Adrien said.

"I know he is a vampire" Marinette came into the office.

"Who are you?" Emilie noticed her.

"I'm Marinette Dupain-Cheng. I'm.....one of Adrien's classmates" Marinette shyly replied.

Both teenagers explained everything that has happened and that they are the superheroes of Paris saving the day from Hawk Moth's plague of akuma for 2 years. Adrien also explained how his life was with his father and it was being forced to be perfect all the time. Especially filling his head with lies like the world being dangerous or that he's not like everyone else and that he's his son. What his father did not understand is that Adrien is not a little kid anymore and that he chooses his own life, not by his father.

"He thought that if he wished you back, we would be a happy family but I told him he's wrong. Nothing can fix the past, only the future. But he has been a madman for too long, I was afraid that you would be scared of him. I was also scared and angry that he lied to me longer than I have" Adrien said.

"Your father is no longer the man I once knew, but I can't reject my only son. It's also quite a shock to know one's kid is a superhero" Emilie held her son's hand.

"I thought of you all the time, mother. I had to accept that you went away but I never realized you were in a coma the whole time. I was hoping that Nathalie could be my stepmom but my father has no feelings for her, he did not wanna replace you with any woman. It was like he couldn't let go of the past and move on" Adrien hugs her.

"Adrien, I'm so proud of you for keeping Paris safe with Ladybug. I really wish I never used that damaged peacock miraculous" Emilie said, gently touching his hair.

"The only thing that matters now is that you're awake. If my father used the miraculous to wish you back, I would be in your place" Adrien said.

"I won't let anyone take you from me. No matter what you are, you'll always be my son" Emilie said.

"Thanks, mom" Adrien hugs his mother again.
