Summary:The real reason Cupid married Psyche.
I don't expect anyone to understand the attraction I felt.
After all we are from opposite sides and houses. He's from War and
I'm Love. But everytime I see him my heart breaks. I know that he
will never love me. I'm to soft in his eyes. Maybe thats why I
allowed myself to believe that I loved Psyche, even though I knew it
wasn't real. I was so lonely. I just wanted someone of my own to
love. Damn! How pathetic was that?! I'm Cupid, God of Love and I'm
whining about being unloved. But it's true. Psyche blindsided me.
I thought she was truely innocent, I mean even Uncle Hercules was
taken in by her. Dads the only one whos harder to fool. I should
have looked closer or let Mom do it like she wanted to.
She only wanted to marry me so that she could become a goddess
and punish the villagers who had tormented her when she was mortal.
She really thought me a freak, but to my disgust she still slept with
me. My wings repealed her and she wanted Apollo. Though to my
suprise he never touched her. Perhaps she would have been able to
keep her feelings a secret if it had not been for the birth of my
beautiful little Bliss. Oh, how I love him. When she went into
labor I linked with her. I wante to help her to share this
experiance. I felt her loathing at my touch. I thought these where
normal feelings. Dad told me horror stories about the way Mom acted
at my birth. I didn't realize these where true feelings until Ace
showed us Bliss. She hated him! She felt disgust and loathing when
she saw his perfect white wings. I cried both tears of pain and joy
that day. Every thing she had done since becoming a goddess filtered
through my mind. I released it though and decided to talk to her
later in hopes she would bond with our son.
Later that same week I came home from Athens and found Bliss
crying and Psyche no where to be found. I lifted him into my arms
and went in serach of my wayward spouse. When I found her she was
thin again. She was just finishing some sort of potion. I told her
that Bliss needed to be fed. She just sneered and said she no longer
had anything to feed him with. She had taken a potion to dry up her
milk. I was to stunned to think for a moment. I demanded to know
why. She laughed and said that we where bound know that she had had
Bliss. What I did with him was my buisness he could starve to death
for all she cared. For the first time in my nearly 3,000 years I
wanted to kill someone.
Instead I flashed to my Grandpa Zues's temple anmd bellowed for
both his grandparents. Grandma Hera was scowling until she saw me
and Bliss. I quickly explained what was going on. Hera immediatly
granted my wish that I be able to feed my baby. I gasped as my
nipples tightened and where heavy with milk. I immediatly placed my
squaling son up to my breast and sighed in relief when he began to
feed. I began to cry softly from the emotion this caused. Grandpa
gently lowered me to a chair and flashed away to deal with Psyche. I
didn't care all I cared about was my son. Know finally I had someone
to love me.
