Lukabeth

Lukabeth is a relationship between Annabeth Chase and Luke Castellan from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians fandom.

The Lightning Thief
Annabeth had a crush on Luke during The Lightning Thief, and it was noted that she blushed a lot and tried to look her best around Luke, but it all but evaporated after she learned the truth about his betrayal.

The Sea of Monsters
Annabeth was shown to be very upset over Luke's betrayal, and keeps trying to defend him, despite the many times he tried to get her killed. When they approached the island of the Sirens, Annabeth saw Luke in one of her visions, because she still hoped that she could get him back.

The Titan's Curse
When Annabeth saw Luke holding up the sky on Mount Tam, pleading for her to help him, she took it for him, despite the fact that he betrayed her. Her loyalty only wavered when he left her there alone, holding up Atlas's burden, and walked away.

The Battle of the Labyrinth
Luke visited Annabeth in San Francisco before the start of the book, and asked her to run away with him, like the old times, because Kronos was going to use him like a 'stepping stone' to gain power. However, Annabeth refused, not trusting him anymore, possibly because he left her alone after she took the sky for him. She was crying after she found out that Luke became Kronos's host when they ran into him in the Labyrinth. At the end, she revealed to Percy that the prophecy had stated that she would 'lose a love to worse than death,' referring to Luke, who became possessed by Kronos.

The Last Olympian
Her continuous faith in Luke was what served her at the end, when Luke disarmed her and was about to kill her. She stated that she had always wanted to build something permanent, 'a monument to last a thousand years,' because every time she found a family, it fell apart almost immediately, like when Thalia got turned into a pine tree, and Luke betrayed her. Throughout the course of the book, Annabeth still clung on to the hope that Luke was still in there, and in the end, she woke Luke up, when she was lying on the ground, weaponless, with Luke standing over her, preparing to finish her off. She reminded him of his promise to her years ago, "Family, Luke. You promised." As Luke lay dying, he asked her if she'd loved him. She replied that there was a time when she thought she did, but he was only ever like a brother to her.

The Lost Hero
When Annabeth talked about Luke, Jason wondered if Annabeth used to like him and whether Percy Jackson wasn't the only boy Annabeth ever liked.

The House of Hades
When Percy and Annabeth were in Tartarus, the River Acheron showed Annabeth an image of Luke dying, his blood on her dagger. It was revealed that ever since Luke died, Annabeth had wrestled with the thought that his blood was on her hands, and that his death was her fault.
