Chapter Seven
Lucifer and Amenadiel sit in silence, going over the possible ways Alexandra could be the child of Judas. There is no record of him having children, but then again there is not much written on him before he met Jesus. Maze pours another drink and stares at the bed Alexandra is passed out on.
"How did I not know that?" Amenadiel asks. "That would mean she was born before Christ, but how could she have lived this long?"
"Her father must be the reason," Maze notes.
"No, he did not make me a deal like that," Lucifer says. "Her mother may have, but I do not remember."
"Maybe as punishment, father made her immortal when her father killed himself," Amenadiel says.
"But that does not explain you killing her father," Lucifer says.
"I remember her, she was there when I went to check on Judas. His body had been collected and buried right where he died. She was there burying another body as well," Lucifer says. He walks to the bedroom doorway, looking at Alexandra sleeping in his bed, and he smiles a little. "I could not find her after that, but I knew she would be alright."
"She seemed to have done alright between now and then," Maze says. "What are we going to do with her now?"
"She said she is here to warn us, but the question is what she is warning us about," Amenadiel says, joining Lucifer in the doorway. "You like her, don't you?"
"What are you talking about?" Lucifer scoffs.
"You like her because she has accepted you for you are," Amenadiel says.
"It is nice to know that a human, even if she is immortal, can like me for who I am," Lucifer says with a smile.
"Luc," Alexandra whimpers. Lucifer goes to sit on the bed, pulls her into his arms, and caresses her arm gently.
"Great, Lucifer has a pet," Maze says. The two leave them alone and Lucifer smiles down at Alexandra in his arms. Now he knows why he is drawn to her, she is like him. She was shunned and casted out from the rest of people because she is the child of someone that went against Christ and she has become independent. She knows how to play the field in regards to keeping people at a distance. Alexandra stirs a little and looks up at him.
"What are you doing here?" Alexandra asks with a smile.
"You became a little restless," Lucifer chuckles. He kisses her forehead sweetly and holds her closer to him. The elevator chimes and Chloe walks into the condo.
"Decker, what do you want?" Alexandra asks. Chloe freezes when she hears Alexandra and walks to see them in the bed.
"I am sorry, I can come back another time," Chloe says with a hint of pain in her eyes.
"Spit it out, Decker," Alexandra growls.
"The killer is going to be released soon and we are needing that statement," Chloe says after clearing her throat for a moment.
"Well, let's get that statement," Alexandra groans as she struggles to get to her feet. "I have made it this far and cannot afford to lose him now."
Daniel and Ella stare in shock when they see Alexandra walking in in Lucifer's arms. She is sweating from exhaustion just walking from the car into the building. Chloe remains a little behind, trying not to cry at the two of them being so close. She had only been in Lucifer's life a week or so and he is falling for her quickly. She found them in bed with her partially naked.
"Catholic, get me some water," Alexandra orders. Pierce walks out of his office with his chest puffed out.
"Alex, come and see me when you are done," Pierce says, his eyes glaring at Lucifer.
"Not happening, Pierce," Alexandra says. She manages to get to a chair and takes a few breathes as deep as she can. "This is ridiculous."
"You can make it," Ella says once she comes over with the water. Lucifer keeps his hand on Alexandra's shoulders as she drinks the water. "So, have you two made this official?"
"What?" Daniel and Chloe ask in unison.
"There is nothing between us other than he is taking care of me," Alexandra groans. Lucifer helps her to her feet and into the interrogation room where the killer sits with a big smile on his face. His bright green eyes shine as he watches her come in and his long, wavy black hair hangs in his face.
"Well, I have seen you in better shape," the man says
"Shove it, Jude," Alexandra snaps. Lucifer smiles at her attitude and remains by the door. "You look like shit."
"You are the one that put me in here," the man, Jude, says. "So, you have finally caught me."
"Why? Why did you do it?" Alexandra asks. "You know he is not going to be happy about this."
"I do not care what makes him happy or not happy," Jude says.
"I am sorry, but have we forgotten that he thinks he is my child?" Lucifer asks. Jude smiles up at Lucifer and laughs a little. "Alright, you are not meant to be around normal people."
"His name is Jude Michaelson and he is the Devil's Child. His criminal background is about a mile long along with a few stays at mental institutions," Alexandra says.
"You forgot that we have been playing this game for years," Jude says.
"Knock it off, Jude, or I will smashes the mushy thing you call a brain out of your head," Alexandra growls.
"There is not much you can do in your condition, Alex," Jude laughs. "You are weak and vulnerable. You are an easy target now and she is going to get you for letting your emotions get to you."
"I am going to kill you!" Alexandra shouts. She gets to her feet, jumps over the table to tackle him, but Jude manages to get a foot over the table and forces it into her stomach.
"See! Vulnerable!" Jude laughs when he watches Alexandra fall to the ground. Lucifer locks the door and grabs Jude by the neck within seconds. "I am not afraid of you because you have scared me once and it will never happen again. You are the reason we are like this. We are damned because of you."
"What are you talking about?" Lucifer growls.
"You made me what I am," Jude laughs. Before Lucifer can say another word, the doors are kicked open and Lucifer is pulled away from Jude. His attention goes to Alexandra, of whom is bleeding through her shirt.
"Holy fuck," Alexandra groans. Ella begins to bandage her up while Daniel escorts Jude out of the room. "I am not going to be fit for duty for awhile. Guess that means I am staying here for a bit longer, Luc."
"That is music to my ears," Lucifer says with a sad smile.
