Clare Diseuza Burton perspective.

"Lucas, come here." I said to him in a stern voice when he broke the hug from Lucifer's embrace and stared at me with his doe eyes, indicating me that to let him stay for a while in his father's hands little more, when I went towards them and was about to pull Lucas from him but instead he pulled me in his lap making my eyes widen as I was about to leave but he whispered.

"Don't Clare." He warned me with his slow voice making me shuddered when Lucas giggled by seeing me in Lucifer's lap making my cheeks red out of embarrassment when Lucas spoke.

"Mommy, isn't dada's lap so comfortable?" I widened my eyes when he asked me this and I just smiled before nodding my head making Lucifer give off a proud smile when I spoke.

"Lucas, let's go now. We have to shower and then you have to eat your meal. Say bye to him." I said pointing towards Lucifer when Lucas turned his face away from me and snuggled into his embrace more making me signed when I was about to speak but instead Lucifer whispered.

"My son is as stubborn as me. Like father, like son." I stared at him in disbelief when I took Lucas from his lap and Lucas started to wiggle to go out from my grip when I spoke making him happy as he giggled.

"He is going to stay with you, but first you have to take a bath and have your meal." He nodded his head making me smiled when he looked at Lucifer and spoke.

"Dada, we are going to play after I complete everything that mommy told me to do." Lucifer smiled and nodded before speaking.

"Ofcourse my little boy." Lucas rushed towards the washroom before getting out from my embrace, when I was about to follow him, just to ignore Lucifer but he wrapped his hands over to my waist and pulled me closure, I visibly shuddered when he kissed my shoulder as I spoke, trying to free from his grip.

"Lucifer, let me go." He only tightened his grip and kissed me all the way to my neck. I felt delighted when he used to kiss me, but now I felt disgust after remembering all the past incidents when I harshly pulled myself from his grip and spoke.

"Lucas is not your child." He stared at me for a moment and let out an historical laugh when he spoke staring down at my eyes.

"Remember Clare, I used to say that my genes can never dissapoint me, I didn't lie. His facial features and his personality builds up as the next me. When I looked at him for the first time, I knew that was my child because of his gemed blue eyes, his numerous small moles in his neck. He hardly have any features of you, Clare." I spontaneously looked at him and spoke.

"He is not yours." He nodded his head and continued before roaming around me as he whispered right in my ears.

"Alright, he is not mine. But I will take him to a DNA test." My moment shuddered and I knew the truth already revealed so hiding it won't help the situation anymore when I took a deep breathe and looked at me, to see him already looking at me as I spoke.

"Don't have to do that. Afterall, Lucas previously knew that you are his father. He saw you numerous times on television and you also recognised him so there is nothing to hide. I knew someday this day will arrive, so I thought of a solution to help both of us." He looked at me with his confused eyes when he spoke.

"And what is it?"

"We should try co-parenting. It will definitely help. Afterall, you are his father and I am his mother so I don't want you both to be seperated. So you can visit whenever you want to. I won't ever come between you both." He stared at me for a solid one minute as he broke off his eye contact before pulling me closure softly and patted my cheeks before speaking.

"I came in London to get you, but when I found out Lucas is my child. I was void with numerous emotions but co-parenting will never help the situation. I want you and my child close to me. I have spended 6 years away with you which felt like 6 decades to me. I can't loose you again." He said softly, trying to control his anger because his veins were erupting from his neck while his lips were curling and his palms were sweaty, and it was enough to knew that one wrong word or action from me will make him burst off but I choosed to say.

"Lucifer, don't act like we are together. I was never yours and until I die, I will never be yours because I haven't forget that you used me, I haven't forgetted your betrayal, I haven't forgetted those lies that you did to me when we were staring at those stars at night. I should have understood that, but I was so blinded by your fake love and care for me but it's enough now, I deserve someone who will be there with me through thick and thin, and I will find that person very soon but don't worry, that won't stop you from meeting Lucas because he is also your child. I moved on Lucifer, a long ago. It's been 6 year and I am not that blind to still stuck on those emotions. I have passed the years without you and I believe that I will also past the rest of my life with Lucas beside me. You have said that he got your features, and expressions, I agree but he isn't a heartless like you. You are a heartless person and I feel very ashamed to call you as my child's father."

Lucifer just stared at my words and without any words, he left the house with his car keys and I knew the silence are going to haunt me for the whole day when Lucas came and spoke looking around trying to find his dada.

"Mommy, where is dada?" I looked at the door and signed before saying.

"He left, Lucas."
