Lucifer placed her in her bed and tucked her in before walking out. He walked to the living room and sat by the fireplace. The flames from the fire were engulfing the fireplace. He poured himself a whiskey and sipped on it. Vincenzo came and he said to him, "enzo where's my brother?"
"Haven't seen him at all today lucifer." Lucifer raised a brow suspiciously, "find him and tell him to come to me". Vincenzo nodded and left.

A few moments later Marco walked in with a smirk, "to what do I owe the pleasure, dear brother?". Lucifer stood up bravely and quietly. He looked at him with an unemotional face, looking like he's been moulded in clay.
"I know what you did, Marco" lucifer said.
"So you found out huh?"
"I only have one question. Why?"
"Because you don't deserve her Lucifer. You never will." Lucifer snatched his collar and hissed through his teeth, "she's mine okay?! Get your hands off her and leave her alone.".

Marco spat on his face and Lucifer punched him hard. Marco shouted, "SHE DOESN'T DESERVE YOU OR THIS LIFE! SHE'S JUST AN INNOCENT CLUELESS GIRL!! SHE DOESN'T DESERVE TO BE IN THIS CHAOTIC WORLD OF OURS!!" Lucifer snatched at his collar again,
"SHE WAS BORN INTO IT MARCO DON't YOU FOR-". That was when she walked in and looked at them with a confused face,
"I was born into what?" She walked towards them and crossed her arms, "What are you hiding from me?". Lucifer's hands unclenched Marco's collar and whilst staring at Marco he said, "go back to your room Rosa". She raised her voice,
"I said! What. Are. You. Hiding. From. Me!".

Marco looked at her and put a hand on her upper arm gently and said, "just go back to your room please..". She pushed his hand off her and screamed at their faces, "NO". She ran towards Lucifer's I dice as lucifer called after her. Once she entered she started going through cabinet's knocking things over. She then took out a file that said "Rosalie" and opened it. It was photos of her from years ago up until now. It said on the top of the photos "Sophia De Luca". There was every record of what she did and who she talked to.

Lucifer stood by the doorway, Rosalie's eyes found his. "Wh-who is she?.. she's not me.. she can't be me..". Lucifer walked towards her and took the file out of her fragile hands. He sighed and cursed under his breath,
"Your name is Sophia. Your parents are Giovanni De Luca and Eliza De Luca...". She pushed his chest harshly,
"Get away from me! You're lying! My name is Rosalie Scotts and my parents are Diana Scotts and James Scotts! You're a liar!!" She shouted.  Lucifer didn't even move an inch as she kept pushing him and hitting him calling him a liar.

He finally held her wrists and looked at her eyes sharply, "I'm not lying sophia. Your parents died at a fire that was caused in your home when you was 4. You survived due to your babysitter kidnapping you away. Your identity got erased and you was known to be dead"
"No no no.. I don't know this Sophia! I'm not her!"
"I've been searching for you for years. Don't you remember anything?!". She started tearing up and shook her head. Lucifer hugged her tightly and stroke her hair. Lucifer's voice softened, "let's deal with this tomorrow okay?.." she nod and they started walking to his room.

Rosalie was in the bed, tucked in, when Lucifer walked out of the closet dressed in a black shirt that hugged his abs very well and some grey sweatpants. Rosalie had never seen Lucifer dressed in such casual attire, and to her he looked even hotter like this. So she turned around to hide her blush. "I hope you didn't think I sleep in a suit as well" he chuckled. Rosalie acted like she was sleeping to avoid the conversation, she was too embarrassed to answer. He sighed and drifted into sleep on the chair. Rosalie looked at him and watched him sleep for a moment before realising he didn't have a blanket on him. She got out of her bed and tiptoed to the drawers, thinking there would be blankets there. She was right. She took a soft grey blanket and walked to him silently. She then lay the blanket on him and went back in the bed, slowly falling asleep.

3am
Rosalie tossed and turned in her sleep, mumbling words, "mama... papa...". She was soaked in sweat and suddenly woke up with a gasp. Lucifer woke up immediately and took his gun from under his pillow and pointed it at the door. When he realised Rosalie was crying he put his gun down and sighed in relief. He got in the bed with her and hugged her as she cried into his chest. He stroked her hair and whispered,
"Shhh it's okay.. it's okay..". Rosalie sniffled and lucifer asked, "you wanna talk about it, bella" Rosalie shook her head and whispered, "I just want to sleep..". Lucifer nodded and was about to leave the bed when she held his arm, "stay..". Lucifer got back in the cozy bed and lay in it with her. He pulled her close and spooned her as they fell asleep.
