~ Around 15 years ago, before Alexis's birth ~

A smile crept upon Carol's face as she looked down at her swelling stomach. She was sitting in front of a fireplace, thinking about her soon to be born child. She was waiting for her lover to return from a meeting. Vampires and Angles were enemies except for these two. They loved each other very much. Others though saw it as disgusting and it should be abolished. So they have tried to keep their relationship a secret. It was hard due to Carol's pregnancy but they have managed this far and they are not planning on giving up. Sadly, what they didn't know is that an angle from the castle in the heavens have been spying on them, keeping an eye on the queen without her knowing. Lucifer soon entered the house and was greeted by his angle lover. When they would meet, it would be in a log cabin deep in the moonlit forest.

"In a couple of days... then Alexis will be born." Carol told Lucifer with confidence etching in her voice. Shadows danced across the walls as the two listened to the crackling of the fire. The smell of pine needles filled the small cabin. Both snuggled close to each other. Letting silence say all that needed. They both fell asleep in each other's arms.

~ After her Alexis's birth~

Tears rolled down Carol's face as she looked at the new life she held in her arms. Lucifer was by her side. Fear flickered in his eyes though. Both knew that the others knew about Alexis.

"Theorik will not be forgiven..." Carol said, anger clearly seeping through. Both started quickly getting ready to take their child to the safety of a trusted friend, Elizabeth. Carol has been friends with Elizabeth since they were children. I know what you're thinking, 'but isn't Elizabeth human?' well yes. Carol would run away a lot as a child. She didn't want the responsibility of becoming queen. She feared it. What if she messed up? All eyes are always on her. She hated that. So she would run away and when she did, she met Elizabeth. They would always stay together. Once Carol's parents found out about this, they realized that in order to keep Carol at home, she would have to bring Elizabeth there to visit. Elizabeth was like a sister to Carol. They understood each other and respected boundaries. It was rare for them to fight but they always forgave each other. After Carol goes crowned queen, they sorta drifted apart but were still close.

Once they are ready, both Lucifer and Carol leave to take Alexis to Elizabeth. Once they handed her off, that was the last time they would see her for a while.
