Dear Reader, I know it has been a long wait for this chapter. I had intended on re-writing this one from Ladybug's POV to explain her feelings on the matter with more depth but after re-reading many months later I've decided it does work from Adrien's POV. Besides the chapter after this is from her point of view. You can thank a guest review for prompting me to post.

FYI... this chapter definitely deserves the M rating, so if that's not your thing turn away now! Otherwise enjoy the ride ;)

Chapter Four

Adrien had screwed up. This was not the vibrant woman he recognised as his partner. Somehow the brief altercation with Fabian Alenko had fundamentally changed her mood. The model didn't understand where he'd gone wrong. Perhaps Fabian himself had said or done something prior to Adrien's arrival. Fuck, he needed to fix this.

With her hand firmly within his, Adrien opted to take her to his room. Yes, he had a room at Le Grand Paris for the night. It was kind of ridiculous but rather handy given the current circumstance. If Ladybug was about to cry, he was pretty certain she wouldn't want to be in public doing so.

She didn't say a word as they rode the elevator, nor when he led her down the corridor to his room. He expected some response when he unlocked his suite's door but there was nothing. Flicking on the lights, he dragged Ladybug inside with a tug on their still joined hands. The moment the door shut, Adrien pulled her into his arms. "What's wrong?"

A sob escaped Ladybug as she buried her face against his throat. Her gloved hands curled to grasp his jacket lapels as she huddled closer to him. "I thought he wasn't like that."

"Fabian?"

Ladybug nodded against his chest.

"What did he say? Did he threaten you?" Chat Noir would be paying the singer a visit later if he did.

"No. I thought… I thought. Shit, I don't know. I should have known it would never work."

Adrien's brow furrowed. "What wouldn't work?"

"A relationship with him, a romantic relationship. It could never work, not when I have to… to well work with him."

The model was silent as he pondered her words and then the penny dropped. "Shit. He's not Chat Noir."

Ladybug reared back, her hands clasped tight on his jacket as she stared wildly at him. "You cannot tell anyone his true identity."

Adrien shook his head, realising she'd interpreted him incorrectly, thinking it had been a question. "I mean he's not Chat Noir."

"You don't know that."

"Oh yeah, I do actually."

"You don't understand," she insisted, "I knew Chat Noir was coming back unmasked tonight. He told me as much."

"Fabian Alenko is not Chat Noir. He only got back in the country two days ago. For memory, you were fighting off an akuma three days ago with Chat Noir, correct?"

Masked eyebrows lowered in reflection before those blue eyes locked on his. "Correct."

"Meaning Fabian isn't Chat Noir."

The relief was evident as Ladybug's whole frame relaxed. "Thank goodness."

A heavy silence hung between them as Ladybug continued to hold onto his jacket and he onto her elbows. Adrien wasn't quite sure when he'd latched onto her but he was loathed to let go. They were alone in his room, where he'd aimed to get her. Yet the situation wasn't exactly romantic.

Ladybug appeared to be staring at his chest, almost as if she were afraid to look him in the eye. "You… you arrived late too."

"I did."

Again, there was nothing but the sound of their combined breathing which was increasing in pace. Ladybug licked her lips and Adrien instinctively leaned closer. The model was in a quandary. He desperately wanted to close the distance between them but was afraid of being rejected for the millionth time.

"Ladybug," he rasped and she lifted her head. A groan escaped him when he saw how big her pupils were. "Kiss me."

To his utter shock, Ladybug arched up on her toes and reefed Adrien down by his jacket and did just what he asked. Given their history he'd expected a slow chaste kiss but he'd been completely wrong. Ladybug was attacking his mouth with the kind of vigour he'd only fantasised about. As if she were relinquishing her usual sensibilities and giving in to her primal needs.

Then she was pushing him backward, against the wall with undeniable urgency while clawing off his jacket. Adrien lowered his arms so the garment could fall to the floor with a quiet thud. Not that he noticed the sound, his senses were overrun with the headiness that was his lady. With the jacket gone, he coiled his arms around her, pulling her closer as she tugged his shirt from the waistband of his trousers.

One gloved hand was suddenly trailing up his abs. The model moaned into her mouth as that hand climbed higher to tweak one of his nipples. Damn, wasn't he supposed to be the one doing the seducing? Because right now it seemed like the vixen in his arms was doing all the work.

Not to be outdone, Adrien lowered one of his hands to cup Ladybug's ass as the other cupped her breast. The heroine moaned and sucked his bottom lip into her mouth. Damn he had no idea she'd be this responsive. His grip on her ass tightened as he ground his hips to hers, rubbing his erection against her abdomen.

But then Ladybug inched away from him, evoking a whimper from his lips until she grabbed the front of his dress shirt and yanked the two sides apart, sending his buttons shooting across the room. "Tie," he wheezed since she'd forgotten to remove that in her haste.

"It can stay," she breathed in the sexiest whisper he'd ever heard. Then her hands were working on his belt and he slumped against the wall.

"What are you doing?"

"What does it look like?"

"Should we take this to the bedroom?"

Ladybug shook her head. "You stay right there."

Adrien merely nodded as he watched her frantically undo his belt and unzip his trousers. She had them at his ankles in a flash. And then she was peeling off his underwear with a look of utter delight.

"Is this all for me?" she asked as she ogled his erection.

"Yes."

Her breathing increased with her excitement. "Good." That was all she said before taking his straining cock between her lips.

"Oh fuck," Adrien growled at the sensation of the welcoming warmth and wetness of her mouth.

Ladybug chuckled around him. The reverberations causing him to moan at the carnal pleasure. Her tongue circled his tip and up over his slit. The sensation had him closing his eyes but he quickly reopened them, wanting to sear this moment into his memory. Ladybug was on her knees with his cock in her mouth. It was an image he'd never thought would become reality.

Her eyes met his and it was almost enough to bring him undone. He dropped his hand into her hair, tugging one pigtail free. It was then that Ladybug began bobbing her head, taking him deeper into her mouth until his tip touch the back of her throat. Ladybug pulled slightly away in discomfort.

"Y-You don't have to if you don't want to." He assured her.

Those blue eyes looked up at him with a determined set. Oh, she was not stopping. To cement this, Ladybug cupped his balls with one hand, massaging them in time with each suck of her mouth.

"Yes, oh yes," Adrien chanted. "Don't stop." Then he lost the ability to speak as his hips jerked and he reached his peak. All that Adrien could do was let out a throaty groan as he sagged against the wall, his fingers latched onto Ladybug's hair like a lifeline.

She continued to lick and swallow down his load as he tried to catch his breath. "That was… that was… wow."

Ladybug finally released his cock from her mouth and wiped her face with the back of her wrist. Rising to her feet, the heroine snagged his tie and gave him a wicked smile. "We're not done yet."

"I should hope not."

"This way," she said with a playful yank on his tie, forcing Adrien to follow her. Although it was difficult with his pants around his ankles and his shoes still on. Ladybug slowed her pace and directed him to stand at the end of the bed. With a saucy smirk, she gave his chest a shove causing him to flop onto the mattress. She was at his feet in a second, removing his shoes, socks, trousers and underwear.

With this done, Ladybug took a step away from the bed and turned her back to him. One arm reached around to push her hair to the side while her other hand began undoing the long zip that trailed down her spine.

Adrien blinked in confusion. "I didn't think your suit had a zipper."

Ladybug glanced over her shoulder at him. "It didn't. Not until today."

The model swallowed, hard. Did that mean Ladybug had wanted Chat Noir to seduce her? In which case, why the hell was she with him as Adrien? Had she figured him out or would any hotblooded male do? The thought had him clenching his jaw.

But then Ladybug got to the bottom of her zipper and began peeling her costume from her shoulders. With her arms free, she pushed the suit downward, bending over as she slid the garment over her fabulous ass and down her legs. Underneath she wore a matching red lace bra and panty set. A very transparent combination, at least from the back.

Adrien was pretty sure he was salivating but he honestly didn't care. Ladybug stepped free of her costume and turned to face him. The cups of her bra were sheer red mesh, meaning her perky nipples were on display. The vision before him had his cock stirring back to life. Ladybug sashayed her way to the bed, crawling up his body until they were face to face. Then she rose up on her knees and sunk her thumbs under the lace at her hips.

While she held an air of confidence, there was a touch of unease in Ladybug's eyes. Was she nervous? And if so, why? Didn't she know that this was his own personal slice of heaven? Placing his hands over hers, Adrien helped guide the scrap of lace down her thighs to expose the dark patch of hair beneath.

"I can't take them off," she murmured as she looked down at him.

The model had no doubt that mischief twinkled in his eyes as he switched their positions, laying her on her back as he hovered over her. With deliberate slowness, he peeled her panties down to her ankles and over her feet. Tossing the scrunched up lace over his shoulder as he smiled at Ladybug.

Yet as he moved over her, the heroine kept her raised knees shut. "Having second thoughts?" he rumbled and prayed she wasn't.

Ladybug's teeth dug into her bottom lip. "I-I've never had a guy go down on me before."

Blonde eyebrows shot towards his hairline. "Never?"

"Never."

"Seriously? That boyfriend of yours was lousy."

The corners of her mouth lifted a little and her knees began to part. "He was."

"Let me show you what a real boyfriend is willing to do for his lady."

That smile broadened and her thighs opened. "I await your demonstration."

Adrien gave her a grin that was all Chat Noir. "Your wish is my command."

Just so you know, I haven't completed the next chapter so it won't be coming quickly (ha, I made a funny). But I'll aim to get it written over the next fortnight. As always, thanks for reading and please feed the review box on your way out. It's always hungry.
