Fated threads of Destiny (katakuri x reader) One piece fanfiction

The night had settled on Whole Cake Island, the sky adorned with a crescent moon, casting a silver glow across the sprawling estate. The air was thick with unspoken words as Katakuri and Y/N had returned from their long, yet peaceful day together.

Katakuri, ever the composed figure, was a shade different tonight. There was a flicker of something in his eyes—a warmth that was hard to miss, even in the dim light. Y/N noticed it, the way he looked at her as though it was for the first time. Her heart raced, but she kept her usual calm, not quite sure how to react to the growing tension between them.

As they walked back to their wing, side by side, their footsteps in sync, Y/N stole a glance at Katakuri. His usual stoic expression was softened, and before she could say anything, the sudden running of footsteps echoed through the hallways.

A servant appeared, bowing deeply.
"Lady Y/N, Master Katakuri... Big Mom requests your presence for the family meeting that's about to begin."

Without another word, they both nodded and followed the servant to the heart of the chateau. The atmosphere had shifted, as the usual hustle and bustle of the castle seemed to intensify, with servants and Homies running in various directions..

"Be prepared Y/N, this will be your first full family meeting." Katakuri said, his hand brushing against hers in a subtle but reassuring manner.

The massive double doors to the grand meeting hall swung open.

The hall was massive, stretching far beyond what she had imagined. The towered ceiling glistening with candy-like chandeliers that casted sparkling light across the polished floors. Walls adorned with Homies of ornate sugar sculptures and paintings, giving the room a sense of grandeur.

The Sweet Commanders and other high-ranking family members filled the enormous table, their individual presences creating a mix of chaos and order that was uniquely Charlotte.

At the head of the table sat Big Mom, her eyes gleaming as she took in the room. Her throne dwarfed everything else, the air vibrating with power. Zeus, Prometheus and Napoleon hovered near her, each Homie exuding their own unique aura.

"You'll be fine," Katakuri said, his deep voice steady and calm, as he walked in alongside Y/N.

The atmosphere had shifted then. Conversations paused, and heads turned to acknowledge him. His sheer presence was magnetic. The Sweet Commander didn't have to speak to command respect—it radiated from his every movement.

Y/N, walking just behind him, felt a dozen eyes land on her as well, as they walked to their designated seats near the head of the table.

Big Mom's grin widened, her eyes sparkling with amusement

"Katakuri! And my dear daughter in law. You've finally joined us."

Katakuri inclined his head respectfully, his hand holding Y/N's as he pulled her chair back and helped her sit down.

She felt a flicker of warmth from his gesture, despite the threatening atmosphere.

Y/N bowed with her head, her heart pounding
"Thank you for having me, Mama."

Big Mom's let out a booming laugh. "No formalities, we're family after all! Let's get started now."

Smoothie leaned forward with a small smile. "Welcome to your first family meeting Y/N. It's not everyday someone gets to sit this close to the action."

"Of course she does," Oven said with a chuckle. "She's married to Katakuri. Besides, anyone who can handle him deserves some credit."

Big Mom clapped her hands up, silencing the chatter.
