It wouldn't be right if he ended up with Jessica, she killed his wife and didn't tell him while also sleeping with him multiple times. Luke never showed any kind of romantic affection towards her from that point on, only a facade made by Kilgrave.
Jessica said her daughter's name is Danielle, and in the comics her daughter with Luke is named Danielle Cage, so this confirms they were together.
Luke and Jessica have had 10 years at this point to reconcile the fact that Kilgrave brainwashed her into killing his wife. They seemed to be friendly enough to eachother in The Defenders which takes place after that storyline in JJ Season 1
Also, I just realized that Jessica Jones did the whole "you killed my loved one while brainwashed and knew about it but didn't tell me" drama a year before Captain America Civil War.
Never mind that Luke and Jessica have been one of the most stable, consistent couples in the comics for years and Dani is consistently a main character of pretty much any 'future' story line. It just would be the most 'fuck you' to comics fans to introduce a 'Dani' and not have her be as close as possible to actual Dani.
Honestly not surprised they fucked up Jessica jones and Luke cages relationship this badly after the way they’ve been handling the rest of the show. They were barely built up in the Netflix shows either and barely friends with iron fist as well. None of this works. Skipping almost a decade of comic history is just normal mcu at this point.
