OMG! Good point :) It will have to be something utterly diabolical, but for some reason I feel like he won't ask them to fulfill their side of the bargain until book for when he has them both under his thumb. Maybe something like:

(Daemon's POV):

"I pulled into the dusty parking lot, yanking the keys out from their slot and muttering darkly under my breath. I slammed Dolly's door and immediately began to stalk towards the humongous bouncer at the nightclub doors.

"You 'gain pretty boy?" Ru..."


Niiiiicee !
The last line, "I really hope that she's still the girl you remember," is seriously spooky..

What do you assume will happen to her mother?

Blake? Where did you read Luc owes Blake a favor?

remember the Martinsburg club scene? Blake takes Katy and Daemon to meet Luc and when sb tries to stop them, Blakes says Luc owes him

Maliha you know, most sequels never best the first book, but the Lux books did. i'm just afraid now abt Origin...the hero and heroine apart always causes something bad to happen...getting a bad vibe recently! but i'm sure JLA will surprise and please us as usual!
any1 else share my fears?

message 114: by Christoffer (new)

Christoffer I can't believe they ended Opal the way they did. That's just torture when a sequel is months away. I can't even talk to people about it. I'm a 27 year old straight guy and I've been catching enough flak for reading romance from my friends so there's no way for me to discuss it with them since they'd never read it.

I need closure, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. I even punched a damn hole in the plaster wall next to me after having seen how long I have to wait to read Origins. To add insult to injury I couldn't even get my hand out of the wall afterwards without calling my damn neighbour for help.

Awwwwwwwhh ! That's s sweet. Even though a bit impulsive on Beth's part. I love 'em.

Hope your hand gets well soon. Daemon and Katy have that effect on people ;)

dude, reading is reading. the age/gender of the reader or the genre of the book so doesn't matter. besides, we have yet to find a Lux series hater. i mean, who doesn't like a good alien-romcom novel?

and no one here's gonna give u a hard time for being a fan of good romance. in fact, we appreciate it! hope you'll be contributing to the theories here :)

and u can talk to US all right HERE abt the good parts!


message 118: by Christoffer (new)

Christoffer Is it just me or does this tv show that CW has picked up sound a whole lot like the lux series. I can't see anything anywhere though that Oxygen has anything to do with the Lux series. Jennifer L. Armentrout is not listed as a writer anywhere on the show. Here are a few quotes about this new tv series:

"Oxygen is said to be an alien drama in the vein of District 9, about an epic romance between a girl and an alien boy when he and eight others of his kind are integrated into a suburban high school 10 years after they landed on Earth and were consigned to an internment camp"

"Oxygen follows a high school pilot program, the first attempt to integrate a group of humanoid aliens stranded on earth who until now have been living in forced segregation. The program is complicated by the prejudices and competing agendas on all sides, and could be saved or destroyed by a burgeoning romance between a human girl and alien boy."

Suppose, Chris is a nasty person. SUPPOSE. So they can use him to hurt Blake. This is one way. But I doubt it'll be much painful :/

Maliha origin will be released a month after i get to 10th grade. why couldn't it be released during the vacation??!! anyway, who's got facts to speculate over? after all, i don't think we have anything better to do but dissect into tiny facts the measely teasers JLA's given us !!


message 132: by Sarah (new) - added it

Sarah I like your theory, Tegan :)


message 133: by Sarah (new) - added it

Sarah I truly believe that he did what he did just to save his friend and now he will help Daemon save Katy... Not sure if Daemon will be up for that, though

Maliha Blake really does like Katy, but he owes his life to Chris. and the time-travel idea? i've been thinking about it too. i mean, opal makes them invisible. surely, there will be another stone to make them time travel?


♥ The Book Snob ♥ OH MY GOD! Awesome theories!
And do y'all think if we keep tweeting day and night JLA will get Origin published earlier? :P
Just saying. :P

PS. All the best, T, for SATs and everything else :)

oh no! he's going to do something stupid like mutate more humans!! i don't think Katy will like sharing him, though.


message 139: by Maliha (new) - rated it 4 stars

Maliha aahhhhh too many months left to contemplate!! do you ever wonder is Katy and Daemon will ever have to fight each other? or Katy and Dee? cause then i'm pretty sure Daemon would take Dee's side and that breaks my heart...and what if Katy cuts a deal with the DOD like Blake to hunt down hybrids (not that she'd ever hurt them...right?)

uff i can't accept the though of her turning into something evil, changed by the DOD's torture methods. it's good if she's stronger like Daemon but not if her personality changes...someone distract me with other theories!! my final's are coming up in May and I won't be able to theorise then so i have to do it now!!

P.S. good to have u all back! :)

my exams are similar to yours since my country follows the UK system but these are just finals for grade 9. i'll be giving my O levels/IGCSE in May 2014

anyway, thanks for wishing me luck. i wish you the same.

another theory? i've been thinking about Dee/Ash/Andrew helping Blake to betray Katy and Daemon. Dee and Andrew would have their revenge and they've been spending an awful lot of time alone together. Ash would just get Daemon, or so she'd think. i hate how she keeps bringing up her and Daemon's sexual past. and i knida hate Daemon for ever being with her just because the Elders wanted it!

one thing's been wating away at me though. you know how Daemon let Katy join them for the Mount sth mission? and Katy said he caved too easily, and she wasn't stupid...what the hell was that about?!! what was Daemon planning??

whoa Tegan, nice idea about Daemon telling Blake to help Katy out. But I reaaaallllyyyyyyyy dislike the idea of Daemon being the self-sacrificing type, even for Katy. I like it when he keeps saying how selfish he is!!

@Esra, did u mean Daemon was giving Ash freedom by dating her cause then she wouldn't have to pair up with someone else and unknown, or that he was giving Katy freedom?

♥ The Book Snob ♥ Oh.. I like that theory about Blake having that mind-jumbling power. But Daemon is supposed to be the most powerful of all the Luxens. So he would've had an idea about it, right? Or we would've seen it being mentioned in the book. But still, that's a brilliant one. Like mind-controlling compulsion, only being done w/o looking in the eye.

And somehow I don't think that Katy will change into an evil personality. I've obviously missed a lot of this conversation. Since reading all the theories at once is meddling w/my head :P

AND I think, that MAYBE Blake might see where he's wrong when Chris(who I hope turns out to be a real nice guy) confronts him/makes him understand.

@Tegan - We would love a Katy POV. Like while she's still with the DOD, and being interrogated by that bitch, Nancy. And then she tries using her powers, but screws up.. something like that :O :P

@Maliha, trust me. No one portrays a better Daemon than Pepe Toth himself ;)

And yeah, what if the DOD, or say, the Elders, do find a way to break the bond, and bring it out as a potion, mix it into Daemon's drink? He'd be too agonized to even notice. What if those Elders inform no one, let Daemon drink it, and make a pact w/DOD to keep/kill Katy and never to disturb the Luxens again?

Oh, shit! :O


message 148: by lara (new) - rated it 5 stars

lara *raises both hands and dies of a heart attack* i fell i love with these books from the beginnig but the only thing i hate about these books are that daemon never said i love you to katy (did he or did he not because i cant remember didnt he only say it at the end of opal when the arum took her) and i think my heart broke buti have no doubt that daemon loves katy

@ books-choclates-one direction you got that nobody portrays daemon better than pepe toth himself!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ yes tegan i wont survive until august


message 149: by Maliha (new) - rated it 4 stars

Maliha Oooh, such sadistic and unhappy theories do down me...I just want Katy and Daemon in each others' arms together forever... (yeah i know I sound like a little girl who believes in unicorns) but still...

Well, the only thing that would make up for a lack of a reunion in Origin is if I get to read about Katy's new powers. Daemon's stronger than Chris, so Katy's stronger than Blake. The DOD will think they broke Katy, and even make Daemon think it, but I believe Katy will get herself out. I mean, it's time we see their strength as individuals, right?

Sure, they'll be tested in twisted ways, but that will only make the ending more worth it! And did y'all forget how Katy keeps insisting she's not weak? Well, just you see, she'll come out clawing on top like the kitten she is - innocent looks, yet dangerous to mess with. Daemon's met his match, and there's nothing that can keep them apart for a whole book, so I expect them to find each other soon.

I hope I could infect y'all with my scary optimism. Know that I'm rarely wrong with my predictions of a book's ending. It's not ego but it's actually one of the few things I'm pretty confident about.

Can't wait to read your piece Tegan!

Loving the theories, people! :)


message 150: by ♥ The Book Snob ♥ (last edited Apr 18, 2013 10:37AM) (new) - rated it 5 stars

♥ The Book Snob ♥ Tegan - Damn.. I like the scenario of how you end the 4th book. :O :D

And added with Maliha's theory about Katy(Wow Maliha! You pointed out an important factor. Now that you say, I do think too, that Katy's gonna get herself out on her own. Eeeee! :D), that'd make an even more awesome POV.

Sth like: W/o the knowledge of DOD or anyone(except Chris), Blake's been helping Katy harness her power. And as stated by M, Katy's more powerful than Blake. So there's more potential in her.
So the scenario is, she's being interrogated. And she does something to anger the DOD. They try to torture her in front of Daemon. But before that procedure, as he walks in the room where she's being kept, she gets shocked and her powers do their mood-swing thingy and she ends up toasting someone(like some DOD member) and a brutal scenario follows. Blake and Chris(who is all fit and fine), side with Daemon and Katy. They fight and they win.
But let's also add here, that Daemon's already drunk that bond-breaking potion and it's NOT poisonous.
So continuing, Daemon is so in awe of Katy when she's fighting that he doesn't notice when an Arum steps out of the shadows and stabs him with Onyx.
And the book ends.
So by 'they win' I meant, they managed to escape...carrying with them a wounded Daemon. And his life force's bleeding away.

Oh duck! That cooled my adrenaline rush/excitement. I hate the idea of Daemon being hurt :/

But JLA's obviously gonna make it an ending and a book, we would die again, after completing.

Esra - Yeah, he did say 'I love you' to Katy. Unfortunately at the last :(

*raises both hands for T's question*

I think I'm dying of contemplating. SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!

@T - Take your time, use whatever theory you want to :) We aren't ordering you around, and neither there's any pressure :)
We love to read what you write :D
