Dawn was upon Arbald forest. The smell of the rain still clinging to the trees and soil gave off a sense of pureness when matched with the light mist hugging the forest floor. It was peaceful and the stirring of the wildlife and insects helped signify the beginning of a new day for the residents of Pakto.

Is how it normally was.

“AHHHHH!!!”

Inside a small house toward the middle of the village a woman's hoarse voice could be heard cutting through the normally peaceful morning air.

“You're doing great! I can see the child coming so it shouldn't take too much more! Only a few more pushes so hang in there!” The dark circles under the midwife's eyes were a casualty of an extremely long labor.

The cries of a newborn came like an angels voice to the tired villagers unable to sleep through the noise that night.

The door to the house slammed open as a large man made his way through the home to where his child was being delivered. Once upon the door to the delivery room he paused and steeled his nervous mind before opening the door carefully and quietly, as if opening it too quickly would destroy it.

Once he opened the door he couldn't help but smile.

The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.

Propped up on the bed was his beautiful wife Sarah holding a small bundle to her chest. She a serene smile on her face looking down at her child, a stark contrast to the obvious exhaustion of a long night.

When Sarah noticed her husband open the door she called out to him, “Zack... Come take a look at our son.” Zack quickly made his way to her side, excited to the new addition to his family.

Zack couldn't help but be stunned when he saw their son. Not because anything was wrong but because just the sight of his child began to well up tears in his eyes. Love and happiness was overflowing from the two as they looked down at their son.

He was fair skinned and had his eyes closed, currently preoccupied with the meal in front of him. His hair was strikingly blond, like his father. It was so blond, almost white, and the pinkness of his little lips gave off an almost angelic feeling.

As if he knew he was being examined the child took his mouth away from his mother and looked up at the two. His eyes were a sparkling violet with small hints of blue.

“Well he is definitely your son, look at his eyes.” Zack laughed as he tipped Sarah's face to look at him, moving her crimson hair to the side so he could see her face better. He felt like he could see his reflection in her eyes, which were the same beautiful night color as their son's, before he leaned in and gave her a kiss.

“Ahem.” A small cough could be heard coming from the couples side.

Zack jumped up when he heard the voice, realising his mistake, before quickly turning and bowing toward the owner of the voice, “Thank you so much for the safe delivery! I don't know what we would do without you!”

The sight of the large man acting this way brought laughter to the woman's face.

The midwife was the village doctor. An elf named Bell that had been living in the area for several decades. No one quite knew how old she was due to the elf race’s naturally young appearance.

“There is no need for the bowing. Seeing a beast-man like yourself acting this way feels weird.” chuckled the woman.

Zack laughed while scratching the back of his head, embarrassment clear based on how his tail was flicking side-to-side.

“Still, it's been quite a while since this village has had a half-breed, and with a succubus no less. Perhaps that's why the child has no tail…” the elf pondered openly.

Trailing off Bell turned to Sarah as if remembering something,  “The child is also a male, which is quite rare in the succubus race is it not?”

Sarah looked down at her child who fell asleep suckling and wrapped him up a bit tighter to keep him warm before saying, “Yes it's not very often we have boys but it shouldn't be a problem as long as I educate him about his mana. He seems to take a lot after Zack anyway so likely his magic capabilities will be low."

“Uuk! Hey I make up for it physically!” Zack feels like he took a personal blow and attempts to show off his bulging muscles which just causes the women to laugh.

“So have you thought of a name?” Bell inquired as she began cleaning up.

The couple looked at each other before Sarah turned to look at Bell.

“His name will be...”
