Blog Number Fourteen - Cupid and Psyche

Psyche was the youngest of three daughters. She was the most beautiful one of all and because of this Venus ordered Cupid to make her fall in love with a hideous monster. Cupid accidently pricked himself with the arrow intended for her and fell in love. But even though Psyche was beautiful nobody wanted to marry her because she was destined to marry a monster. So her parents placed her in a palace where she had invisible servants and a husband who only visited her at night. Her husband told her never to try to look at him, but her sisters persuaded her to carry a lamp and a knife with her. That night she looked upon the face of Cupid and accidently woke him by dripping hot wax on him. Cupid and the palace immediately vanished. Psyche did everything to try and find him but could not. Eventually she went to Venus who was still angry with her. Venus made her go through all these tasks for her. Psyche completed all her tasks and married her beloved Cupid.

Love stories... where to start? I absolutely have no idea. I would say the Princess Bride because it's so corny it's lovable. Or Ella Enchanted because it's just as corny. I'm not much of a Romeo and Juliet fan. OOOhhhhhhh.... Sherlock and Irene. Definite yes. Because he does and does not love her. Is he capable of love? Who knows? But yes, I think this is my final answer.
