Third Person's POV

Adrien got up from the floor as he coughed in his elbow. Marinette, Emilie, Gabriel and Natalie all had worried expressions on their faces as they watched the blonde boy cough heavily.

The green eyed model rolled his shoulders in a soothing manner as he cleared his throat. His eyes met his mother's. He obviously saw the worry in her eyes. He smiled softly and said, "I'm alright. I think the dust down here is getting to me."

Gabriel nodded slowly as he looked back at his beautiful wife. He smiled again. He didn't think he was going to pull it off and he did. He knew about the consequences but it really didn't bother him right now. All he wanted to do was spend time with his wife and bond with her.

Emilie looked around the room or basement she was currently in. She was confused at first when she woke up but she pushed the confusion aside when she laid eyes on her son and husband. They seemed very happy to see her. Which made her wonder how long she was gone.

Her eyes kept on wondering around until her green orbs landed on Marinette's form. She definitely didn't recognize her. She tapped on her husband's shoulder and pointed towards Marinette's direction, " Who is she?"

Gabriel followed his wife's gaze and stared at Marinette. The ravenette had a frown on her face as she walked up to the fashion designer, "Are you happy now?!" She yelled in frustration, "Are you happy?! She's awake but because of what you've done, you've cost someone else their life!"

Emilie looked at the ravenette in confusion. She placed her hand on the teenager's shoulder as she got up from the floor, "What are you talking about?"

Adrien stood beside Marinette as he explained to his mother. "Mom, let me introduce you to the famous superhero of Paris, Ladybug," He pointed at Marinette, "and her partner, Chat noir." He placed his hand on his chest proudly.

Emilie turned to Marinette with a shocked smile, "You have the Ladybug miraculous?" The ravenette nodded as the green eyed woman turned to her son, "And you possess the Miraculous of the black cat?" Adrien nodded.

Adrien further explained to her that Gabriel has been trying to collect their miraculouses and even went as far as putting innocent civilians lives in danger.

Emilie was a bit surprised to hear about that part. She gave her husband a look of disbelief. She didn't want to believe whatever they were saying. She clearly knows her husband. He was a kind, loving and caring man, who wanted what's best for everyone. She just couldn't accept the fact that her husband is a villain.

But when Gabriel tore his gaze away from hers with a sad look on his face, she knew that what they were saying might actually be true.

The blonde's eyes were glued to the floor as confusion clouded her mind. "Why did you do it?" She said in a whisper. She was starting to get irritated. How could her own husband harm other people and a bunch of children just for her?

It sounds romantic but it's not!

She got no reply from her husband, so she raised her voice, "Why did you do it?!"

Gabriel was a little shocked at her sudden change of mood. He always expected it anyway. He knew that his wife wouldn't agree with whatever he was doing, but in all honesty, he didn't care at that moment in time.

He walked up to her and held her two hands in his as he stared at her with intensity. It was as if he was asking her eyes if she was ready for his answer.

He let out a loud sigh and said, "It was because I wanted you back by all means necessary. Emilie, you don't know how much your sudden coma broke my heart. I want thinking straight, I just wanted you back for me and my son." He looked back at her with glassy eyes, "We needed you. I needed you."
