Luke tried to be a good father, from the moment he met your mother and got her pregnant, to the moment he's divorcing her, he loved you no matter what. And damnit, he's not letting his child be with his abusive ex wife. She abused you. His baby, his whole world, the reason he lives everyday and why he even wakes up every morning. There is nothing left for him if he doesn't have you, and he would never forgive himself if he lost his one and only child.

After winning the case and divorcing his wife, he had complete guardianship over you, meaning your mom could never even talk to you without his permission. He'll protect you.

He had bought a new house and everything for the both of you to live in, ensuring your comfort and safety first.

It was rather strange, all the sudden change, but you got used to it. Though, sometimes at night, you had nightmares, causing you to stir in your sleep and wake up crying. These nightmares would be about how your mom was drunk and would inflict harm upon you. Luke took it upon himself to watch over you as you slept

And tonight, when you had a nightmare, he made sure to hold you close. Remind you that it's okay now.

"It's okay now, she can never hurt you again. You're safe now." He murmured, giving you a gentle kiss on your forehead.
