And where does it acknowledge that Cain is Adams son exactly? I'll do you one better.
1 John 3:12
12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
Now lets look at the genealogy
Genesis 5
1This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;
2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth:
backwards from Methuselah
Luke 3
37 Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan,
38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.
Two different genealogy's and no mention of Cain
The genealogy traces through the fictional Seth to get to the equally fictional Noah. That hardly precludes the fictional Cain from being descended from the fictional Adam in this story. Again, see Gen 4:1 which you haven't explained away.
