The wedding invitation

Felix knew that at this point where things were getting heated between Luciana and his siblings that  he needed to step in, to avoid them fighting a war before the real war that he had planned. "Forgive my siblings, they are just furious about a lot of things. If you don't mind, I would like us to talk privately at the other side of the road."

"Alright then". Luciana said as she moved with Felix to the other side of the road. 

"If not for Felix. I'd have torn this b***h into two before she even came here." Victoria whispered to Sam.

Lucifer walked into the police department to meet with Detective James. "What is the case that you had to distract my precious time with my girlfriend?" 

"I hope she does not know about the case.?" James asked.

"Of cos she knows that you called me, she was standing beside me when you called." James sighed. "Alright, but make sure she does not know more than she already does."

"What is really the matter?" Lucifer panicked.

"We are about to investigate a murder case. And her dad is the prime suspect." James replied.

"Her Dad?!!!" 

"Yes, her Dad..." Lucifer froze momentarily, not knowing what to do. Or say. "We need to look critically at the matter, her dad cannot be the killer." He defended, tho he had not really met Sia's father before, he refused to believe that he would be able to murder a man. And he was willi to settle the case once and for all so that he could go back home and rest.

"Have you met him before?"  James asked. 

"Not really. But...."

"No buts, you have not met him before so stop defending him, and that is the reason why I called you to join me instead if going alone, I needed someone with a different point of view to join me." James replied. "Now let's go."

"What happened to the night club, and why all these accusations?"  Luciana asked Felix, when they where alone at the  other side of the street. She looked accross the other side and saw sam and Victoria staring at her with contempt. If there's had bullets and could kill someone, they would have killed her long ago with multiple shots from their eyes.

"Don't worry about them, they are just angry about the burnt nightclub." Felix replied.

"Why would they be angry? And what do I have to do with any of these?" She asked still confused about the whole issues. She could not help but wonder why the vampires would burn down their night club and decide to vent the anger on her. If they had any beef with her, they should just tell her instead of trying to look for a false way to put accusations on her.

"We did not burn down our night club, why would we burn it down?". He asked, trying to find out if she knew about it and was just pretending or something.

""Huh. If you did not burn it down, then who did? I mean what government or individual would be able to conquer a herd of vampires as strong as yours and burn down your Home without you knowing?". Luciana raised an eyebrow.

At this point Felix knew that she was either innocent or trying to play smart, but either way, he was not going to just let her slide like that. "Well I should be asking you, you where the last person to visit before we left town, who knows, maybe you might have had a discussion with Lucifer about us." 

Luciana smiled, then she sighed, "wait what was he trying to do?". She asked her self. Was he trying to put the blame on her to make her feel hurt that he was pissed or something. She chuckled.  all these accusations no longer had any effect on her, because she knew that she had nothing to do with it, and most importantly she had another guy who she was going to get married to, maybe it was because felix did not know about him yet, that was why he thought that his old truck could get to her. Well he was wrong and she was going to deliver what she came for and leave quietly .

"I have no idea about what you guys are talking about. And I did not tell Lucifer anything about you, neither am I spying on you for any reason, you can go and ask Lucifer by yourself if you wish." She replied calmly. 

Her calmness made Felix feel some how uncomfortable, but he did not show it, as he tried to feel relaxed himself. "If what you said is true, then why are you here then?."

"Good question."  Luciana said as she opened her bag to bring out her invitation card. "I came to invite you to my wedding, slated to hold in 13 days time on Christmas day. Precisely." Felix stood at a point transfixed not sure if he was hearing correctly or something, he watched helpessly as she slipped the card into his fingers and walked away. He just stood there, watching speechlessly.

Lucifer and detective James.  Pulled over at the crime scene where the corpse that was killed lay openly but was surrounded by Tiffany and the other members of the forensic unit. As the battled with the autopsy and other tests needed to crack the case. "There's no need to draw conclusion yet, the Forensic unit are not done with the test yet, why don't we wait till they are done before we conclude if Sia's dad is a suspect or not."  Lucifer pointed out.

James sighed briefly. "there's actually no need for the forensic test, we are just doing it for the benefit of doubts."

"What do you mean?" Lucifer asked confused. James shook his head, "come with me." He said as he held Lucifer's hand and lead him to where Sia's father was with some other guards. The moment Sia's father saw them the started shouting. "I did it, I Did it guys you have to arrest me, arrest me right now .. "
