Creon threatens that he will kill Antigone before his son. This is particularly threatening because Creon's son has a passionate love (eros) for Antigone and they were going to get married.

Do the audience believe that Oedipus is Creon's son?

No, the audience doesn't believe that Theban King Oedipus is the son of Theban King Creon. Oedipus clearly is in control of the interaction. Creon comes back from Apollo's Shrine and wants to share what he learns in private with Oedipus and only later in public with the Theban people. Oedipus refuses and tells Creon to speak there and then. That isn't the typical father and son interaction in which the son respects the father, in ancient Greece.
