Chapter 21: Cradle and Crown

The world held its breath.

Social media exploded.

The hospital was swarmed.

Security was tripled.

Because tonight… the queen was in labor.

And the idol-turned-king stood beside her, hands trembling, soul burning.

Scene 1: The Birth

It wasn’t glamorous.

There was screaming.

Sweat.

Pain so deep you forgot how to breathe.

But then—

a cry.

Tiny. Fierce.

And Yoongi? He sobbed.

Full-bodied. Silent tears, collapsing to his knees.

“She’s here,” he whispered, cradling your daughter like she was spun from stardust.

“Aahana… you’re perfect.”

Scene 2: A Threat in Disguise

Three days later, while you slept and Yoongi stepped out for a press call, a new nurse entered your room.

She was kind. Gentle. But something felt… off.

She reached for Aahana’s crib.

You jolted upright.

“Don’t touch my daughter.”

She smiled darkly. “Your husband destroyed my brother.”

Before she could move further, Jungkook burst into the room—

tackling her to the floor.

Security flooded in.

Panic. Flashlights. Sirens.

But Aahana? Still asleep.

Still dreaming.

Still safe.

Scene 3: A Family Like No Other

The next morning:

Jin brought gold baby bangles “because she deserves to shine from day one.”

Jimin made a lullaby that trended in 24 hours.

Taehyung cried more than the baby.

RM started reading her poems.

Hobi baby-proofed your entire penthouse.

Jungkook tried to tattoo her name on his wrist (Yoongi stopped him).

“You didn’t just get a daughter,” Taehyung said.

“You made the world a little softer.”

Scene 4: Crown of Thorns

The woman in disguise?

Aryan’s sister.

Using a fake name. Slipped through a security gap.

Yoongi nearly broke the man sent to question her.

“Touch my family again,” he growled, “and I won’t just end your game. I’ll end your legacy.”

But you stopped him.

“Let karma have its moment.”

“Our daughter deserves a father who chooses peace.”

---

Scene 5: The Heir’s First Stage

One month later—Aahana’s first public appearance.

You held her. Yoongi stood behind you.

And the crowd?

Silent.

No chants. No screams.

Just awe.

Because the man they once worshipped now worshipped two things:

You. And the tiny queen in your arms.

“This is the crown I never knew I wanted,” Yoongi whispered.

“And I’d die before I let it fall.”
