Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Darius’s Birth
Yuna went into labor at 11:45 PM on a quiet Thursday night.The contractions hit hard and fast. She gripped Haruto’s arm with surprising strength, moaning through the pain as he helped her into the car."Drive... faster...!" she gasped, one hand clutching her massive belly. "He’s coming... Darius is coming...!"Haruto drove through the dark streets in silence, his hands shaking on the wheel. This was now his fourth time rushing his wife to the hospital to give birth to another man’s child.
At the hospital, the delivery room was prepared quickly. Haruto signed the paperwork as the father once again. Marcus arrived shortly after and was allowed in the room.The labor was long and brutal — nine exhausting hours.Yuna screamed, pushed, and cursed through the pain, squeezing Haruto’s hand until it went numb. Marcus stood on the other side, encouraging her."Push, baby," Marcus said firmly. "Push out our son.""I’m pushing—! It hurts—!!" Yuna screamed, face red and drenched in sweat.Haruto stood beside her in scrubs, tears already streaming down his face as he watched his extremely pregnant wife struggle to deliver yet another child that wasn’t his.At 8:52 AM, Darius Khalil Takahashi was born.The baby came out crying strongly — a healthy, big baby boy with dark skin, curly hair, and strong features that left no doubt about his real father.The doctor placed Darius on Yuna’s chest.Yuna burst into tears of pure joy, cradling her newborn son."He’s so big... so strong..." she sobbed happily. "Look at him, Marcus. Our son."Marcus smiled with deep pride and kissed Yuna’s forehead, gently stroking the baby’s head.Haruto was once again forced to cut the umbilical cord. His hands trembled violently as the scissors snipped the connection. The reality crushed him harder than ever before — four children now, and none of them his.
In the recovery room, Yuna breastfed Darius while looking radiant despite exhaustion. Marcus sat beside her, proud and possessive.Haruto stood at the foot of the bed, holding the birth certificate for the fourth time."Sign it," Yuna ordered softly, not even looking up from her son.Haruto’s tears fell onto the paper as he signed his name once again: Father: Haruto Takahashi.Nurses congratulated him warmly. "Another beautiful baby boy! You must be so proud, Dad."Haruto forced a broken, empty smile."Yes... I’m very proud."When the nurses left, Yuna finally looked at him with tired but cruel satisfaction."Come here."Haruto approached. Yuna gently placed the newborn Darius in his arms."Hold your son, fake daddy."Haruto held the tiny baby — Marcus’s fourth child — in his trembling arms. Darius was big, healthy, and perfect. And nothing like him.Yuna took several photos."This one is going straight to the Black Lotus premium gallery," she said happily. "Caption: ’Our family keeps growing Thank you to my wonderful husband for being such a devoted father to all our children.’"Marcus chuckled and patted Haruto on the back."You’re a pro at this now, cuck. Keep raising them well. I’ll keep making them."
That night in the hospital room, after Marcus had left, Yuna lay in bed breastfeeding Darius while Haruto knelt beside her.She looked down at him with exhausted but glowing eyes."Four children now," she whispered. "And I’m already planning the fifth. Marcus wants to start trying again in six weeks."She reached down and stroked Haruto’s tear-stained cheek."You did well today. You always do. Even when it destroys you... you still serve perfectly."Yuna smiled, eyes full of dark affection."Welcome to fatherhood for the fourth time, Haruto. There will be many more."Haruto remained on his knees, staring at the newborn baby boy in Yuna’s arms — another living proof of his complete and irreversible destruction.The cycle continued.Stronger.Faster.Endless.
