ARROW OF THE GODS
For over 500 years, Cupid has been the unseen force behind countless love stories, guiding hearts toward their destined matches. But for all the passion he has kindled, he has never felt love himself. To him, his gift is a curse-a cruel irony that allows him to spread love but never receive it. That is, until he meets her. A college student with an unshakable fascination for him, she sees past the legend and falls for the lonely soul beneath. Her devotion is unwavering, her love deep and undeniable. But Cupid, jaded by centuries of solitude, cannot believe that love-true, boundless love-could ever be meant for him. Doubt keeps him at a distance, his heart shackled by fear. Yet, slowly, her persistence chips away at the walls he has built. And when he finally recognizes the truth-that she loves him not for what he does, but for who he is-there is no force in the universe strong enough to keep them apart. A tale of fate, vulnerability, and the power of love, Arrow of the Gods is a story of a god who spent centuries creating love-only to find it in the most unexpected place.Complete
Struck: The Actress & The Archer | ONC2025
*Complete* Copper's life is a carefully crafted illusion-onscreen, she shares a passionate romance with her co-star, a relationship her fans obsess over. Offscreen, her real love life is a mess. Fresh off a brutal breakup and desperate for guidance, she does something reckless-she holds a séance, not to summon spirits but the god of love himself. To her shock, Cupid answers. But the winged god isn't the chubby cherub of legend-he's sharp-witted, dangerously charming, and hell-bent on fixing her romantic misfortunes. As Cupid sets Copper on a whirlwind journey to find true love, the lines between myth and reality blur. Because somewhere between staged passion and genuine heartache, the god of love is breaking the one rule he never intended to-falling for her himself. With fate, fandoms, and forbidden feelings at play, Copper must decide if love is just another illusion... or if some hearts are worth the risk. (Based off Prompt 30 o ONC: In a love Triangle where Cupid himself becomes the third wheel, who will be left standing when Love faces its own matchmaker?) *Please, no. I use a world of soft 'corn' to portray situations not commonly found in that setting. I'm not trying to portray the soft corn or any other industry. I use phrases that aren't seen (I assume) in this industry or any other industry. In other words, it's just a work of fiction. ***Warning: Possible RH romance. I'm not sure yet, but there will at least appear to be a lot of love interests.***Complete
