I'm in a mood so who knows what will happen in this chapter. Okay? Okay.

Her bitter words hurt. They stung every fiber of his being. How could he have been so stupid? If their roles in this had been reversed, he would have ripped her and her lover apart, limb by limb. He now understood. How was he going to get himself out of this one? He needed to be punished and who better to do that than himself?

"Send her and the child home, Father. I'll go back to hell, where I belong."

The father wasn't one to let his children slide when they messed up and this time was no exception. He knew just what buttons of his son's to push. This was going to hurt. He pulled Lucifer to him and showed him Chloe and the child living happy lives with a man who could be a male model. How this man would take Lucifer's family away if he let them go so easy. How Lucifer would be trapped back in hell with no Uber ride from his coin.

Lucifer pulled away and screamed. He was not going to let someone take her away. He would have to fight for her and it would be a battle he wasn't sure he could win. A Chloe scorned was more terrifying than all the demons in hell.

Chloe crossed her arms and tapped her foot, sneering at her soon to be ex-husband, "So, you screw up and you get to run away from your problems because you have those feathers on your back now? Screw that, I'll pluck every damn feather from your back. Don't test me, boy."

"Chloe, I didn't know this would upset you so badly. I really didn't think any thing of it since it was just my penis I was using. You know better than anyone, I'm a poor judge of emotions and the feelings of others. If I had known, I never would have screwed the doctor. How can I make this up to you? I never meant to hurt you, I promised you I never would. What can I do to fix this?"

Chloe could tell Lucifer was sincere but she didn't think she could trust him ever again. It was Dan all over again, minus the physical abuse. Yet, as much as she wanted to hate him, she couldn't. He just didn't get it. "Lucifer, married people don't do that. There's this crazy little concept called monogamy. How many times did you sleep with her?"

"Twice, since we married. Before that, over 20. I paid her for the sessions in sex, it was her idea. I just agreed."

"Idiot. You boneheaded idiot. I get it now. She used you. She is in a position of power and she abused that with you by using your insecurities against you. That bitch."

"No, love, there was no using. It was mutual. The good doctor is a very sexual woman. Constantly horny. She even had a couple go arounds with Maze."

"Are you kidding me? She's not just a bitch, she's a slutty bitch", Chloe declared, her hands on her hips. "I'll kill her."

"Darling, you're getting bit kill happy, tone it down, sweety. You're making the devil nervous."

"Don't you 'sweety' me, you're still an asshole and don't forget, I know where you sleep."

God nodded, "You really are an asshole, but I think that's my fault, seems I made you that way." No one could say the all Father didn't have a sense of humor.

Chloe turned and glared at Lucifer's father, "You know, you need a good ass kicking, too."

Lucifer cringed, waiting for his dad to turn Chloe into a frog or something else revolting but nothing happened. Instead, his father was laughing. No one talked to his father like that and lasted very long. The old boy clapped Lucifer on the shoulder and chuckled, "Like Father like son, eh?"

"You're going to let a human talk to you like that, Dad?", Lucifer asked, perplexed. "But you cast me out for asking a question. I can't win around here. What's the point?"

God held out his hand, stopping Lucifer's temper tantrum, "Same old Lucifer with the same old argument. It's not fair, blah, blah, blah. Lucifer didn't get his way. Son, nothing comes without a price. Perhaps one day you'll learn. Now be gone, back to earth."

Lucifer awoke in his bed at Lux like any other day. He rolled over and checked the time on his phone. 3:48 am. February 15th, 2015. "Maze, Maze. Come here!"

A few minutes later the sexy demon glided into the room, "What, now? I was having a foursome with the Britney's and that new bartender you hired. His tongue is glorious."

"Yes, yes, carnal delights all around. Where's Chloe?"

"I think you mean, 'Who's Chloe?', because I've never met anyone with that name."

"The detective Maze, the one with the spawn you care for."

"Did you have one of those lucid dreams or have you bumped your head. As if I would care for a child. I'm a freakin' demon."

"Maze, what day is is it? Tell me quick."

"It's the day after the humans valentine's day. Which is why I was having a sexy buffet."

"The year?"

"2015, Lucifer. What is wrong with you? Is being on earth affecting you finally? We can go back to hell, go home right now. I don't like the way you're acting."

"It's not me Maze, it's him. Father took my whole life away again."

"Lucifer, I think you need to lay off the scotch before you go to sleep", she said before returning to her chamber.

3 months later

Tonight was the night he would meet the detective. Sadly, Delilah would die yet again but 'twas a sacrifice he was willing to make in order to re-meet his detective. The events of the evening followed the same pattern and finally Detective Decker approached him with her notepad over, flipping through pages of information. The only thing different this time was her stomach was visibly swollen as if she were with child. This didn't happen before. Behind her, Dan trailed like the sick puppy he was.

"Mr. Morningstar...is that really your name?"

"God given I'm afraid", he answered, trying to keep their conversation as authentic as posssible

"Chloe, we need to talk. I know that kid isn't mine so who have you been with. I deserve to know, we are still married."

"For the last time, Dan. I have no idea. We must have had a drunken tumble or something."

"Chloe, I can't have kids, I'm sterile. This is the same shit you pulled with Trixie, you didn't know how you got pregnant with her. Do you expect me to believe in some immaculate conception bullshit?"

Lucifer could tell Dan was dangerously close to losing his temper so he came and stood between the detectives, offering his hand to the man, "Detective Douche, I'm Lucifer Morningstar."

Dan bobbed his head like a chicken,"What did he just call me? Is this dude for real?"

Chloe bit her lip to keep from laughing, who ever this Lucifer guy was, he was a good judge of character. Dan was a douchebag through and through, "Dan, why don't you go home, have a beer and listen to your Nickelback collection", Chloe said, trying to calm her estranged husband down.

"Nickelback, you can't be serious? You're a douche who listens to mom rock. Aren't you precious? Detective Decker, if you'll have a seat, I'll be with you in a moment to answer any questions you may have, I'd just like a word with the gentleman, here. Mano y mano if you will."

"Uh, sure, but you boys behave."

When Chloe was out of ear shot, Lucifer backed Dan into a dark corner, his eyes flashing, "If you lay a hand on that woman, ever again, I guarantee you, I'll deep fry you in your own body fat."

"How did you know? Who the hell are you? Man, what the hell?"

"Ruler of hell actually. Test me, Dan. I beg of you."

Dan ran from the club, horrified. Lucifer on the other hand, strolled slowly to his piano, with his hands in his pockets, "So, what did you need to ask me, Detective?"

it was then he realized his father hadn't taken anything away per se, he had given him what the rest of humanity was denied. Lucifer had gotten a do over and he was going to do his bloody damnedest to make sure everything turned out alright. Judging by the bulge of her belly, that only gave him about 6 months. The only thing truly perplexing him now was the identity of Trixie's sire. Dan truly was sterile so who begat that child? She had to have angelic DNA, that's why she loved him despite of who he was.
