(Your P.O.V)

It was around five in the morning when I woke up, I knew if I was planning on leaving, it would be best to do so now. I didn't need any of the clothes I had here, I have plenty back at the Manor. I changed out of my pajamas and into my casual outfit, the same one I wore when I went to that meeting with Charlie. My periwinkle hair was in a loose bun, and out of my face. I grabbed my sword and locked my door, heading downstairs. The main area was empty, except for Husk who was passed out drunk, I rolled my blue eyes and smiled at the man. 

I wrote a letter and left it at the bar, knowing the others, they'll find it easily in the morning. With that done, I walked outside and headed to my motorcycle, revved the engine, and drove off. The drive was quiet, there wasn't much life in Hell at the moment, thank fuck for that at least. I was able to get to the Manor in record time, Lucifer wasn't expecting me and I will let him know what happened that caused me to return this early. 

I parked my bike in the garage and headed inside. I saw many Imps and other servents were working quickly to get the place in shape as usual. "Madam Dalia, shall I alert his Highness?" Marcus asked me, I nodded my head at the butler who bowed and began heading to Lucifer's private chambers. Knowing Lucifer, he would come out to his main parlor room, he preferred this one over the others since this one had his personal touch to it. It wasn't blood red like the many areas of the Manor, but rather it was a soft yellow color room. White leather couches were around the room, and four tall white bookshelves were around the walls. All in all, the room was very bright and less hell-like. 

Sitting down on one of the couches, I sighed and wondered if it was too early for a drink. "No, I had enough to drink yesterday." I muttered to myself, I was getting tired of everything going on. "Rose?" A voice called out and I looked over and saw Lucifer, he was still in his pajamas and without his signature hat, but he was still the same old Luci I knew. "Hi." I greeted and he walked over to my side, Marcus closing the door behind him. "What happened?" He asked and I let out a bitter chuckle. "Your daughter is truly Lilith's." I said and he froze after saying that. "What do you mean?" He questioned and I stared at my hands, the memories of yesterday were fresh in my memory. 

I didn't realize that I was crying until Lucifer wiped a tear from my face. 

(Lucifer P.O.V)

I gently wiped a tear from Rose's face, she was too gorgeous to cry. 'I really shouldn't be thinking or doing any of this until I get this divorce finalized.' I thought to myself, the paperwork is being processed as I speak. "What happened my Rose?" I asked her, she smiled and took a deep breath, her smile returning to a frown. "Charlie and I got into a fight yesterday. I told her she shouldn't be focusing all of her attention on her newest guest and she yelled at me. She said I... that I..." Rose trailed and I felt her shaking, I was nervous since she never did this. "It's okay, take your time." I told her calmly, she nodded and after some time she spoke. "She said to stop acting like her Mother when I wasn't." Rose said and I felt my heart shatter, I knew Rose loved Charlie like a daughter and tried to be a better Mother to Charlie since Lilith refused at times. 

Just like that, Rose began to break down in tears. I held her tightly, reminiscent of what happened two nights ago. "I know I'm not her Mom, but I thought she knew I cared.... that me being there wasn't an obligation." Rose cried and I rubbed her back and shushed her, rocking her back and forth. To say I'm mad at Charlie is underestimated, Rose has done nothing but be there for her. 

Rose eventually fell asleep, tired from the crying. So I carried her back to my room, not giving any care about what the servants might be thinking. "Tell anyone about this and I will make sure your family will suffer before I get to you." I warned all of my staff, and they each frantically nodded and ran away, doing their necessary jobs. I opened my door and revealed my bed, I moved out of the room I once shared with Lilth years ago once the fighting got worse. The room was filled with rubber duckies that were unique in their own special way. I laid her down on the white silk sheets, her mocha skin was gleaming in the morning 'sunlight' that was happening in Hell at the moment. 

I covered her with the weighted blanket I had to try and ease my anxiety, these things work wonders, maybe humans aren't all that bad at times. She snuggled into the blanket and pillows, I knew they smelled nice since I wear a tiny bit of cologne at night, mainly as another way to ease the anxiety. The soft smile never once left my face, she was too adorable at times and I wanted her to stay that way. I kissed her forehead and her nose before walking over to my closet and grabbing my normal clothes to change into. 

"Welcome home my Rose."

Authors opinion: Hey guys, a shorter chapter compared to the others. I wanted there to be more closeness and cuteness between Adalia and Lucifer. We will be working on getting them to eventually confess, but I have a plan and it will be adorable. Also I won't be letting them get together until the divorce is settled, I do have standards. Either way until the next time bye
