As for the Lustlord hiding a divine shard somewhere? Ehh, I find that unlikely. That shard would come into conflict with his soul shard and I highly doubt he could trust somebody else to hold onto the divine shard for him and not challenge his rule - or at least, the Lustlord wouldn't cooperate with someone like that, who could betray him at an opportune moment, when he himself is such a model opportunist. Comments when Qum and the mages are first examining Riala's hidden divine shard indicate that divine and incubus magic needn't necessarily conflict. The Lustlord might or might not have a divine shard, and it might or might not be within him rather than hidden away like Riala's. Wendis might have been able to sense divine shard wielders, but apparently not shards that are just locked in a storage room somewhere, and maybe also not divine shards sharing a body with incubus shards. If Lustlord's Tower ambitions are as small and petty as it seems, he may not realize the importance of divine shards at all.
