A battle of wits and words unfold when these two are put together for the night after missing their connecting flights in Dubai and lets just say, cupid is ready to let his arrows fly.
Lets make a bet. How long do you think it will take for sparks to fly? I'm betting that its gonna be fireworks though, cos after all, this is cupid at work and it's New Years eve.

When Aiah Falls In Love
In a world where love wasn't left to chance but instead carefully guided by celestial beings, there lived a Cupid named Mikha. She had been tasked with the job of matching hearts for as long as she could remember. Her arrows were precise, and her instincts, unerring. Yet, there was one assignment that kept her up at night -- the quest to make Aiah fall in love. AN: I'm beyond excited to finally share my latest story with you all! This one is a special blend of romance, magic, and a little bit of divine mischief-which is again loosely inspired by Taylor Swift's "When Emma Falls in Love" and my own fascination with the idea of Cupid (month of love kasi eh hehe). Disclaimer: While this story draws from the concept of Cupid, it is not a strict retelling of mythology. I'm not an expert on ancient lore, so please don't expect historical or mythological accuracy! This is purely a product of my wild, creative imagination. Remember to enjoy it as the fiction it is and separate it from reality. Happy MikhAiah day!Complete

Hello, My Name Is Cupid (Book I)
I was sent to earth to get to know the behaviour of humans - at least that's my official mission. I prefer going back to my old job. Which means, making people fall in love. But there is a major problem, as soon as I'd use my bow and arrow god would notice it. So I need to try it differently: I need to set up romantic events and do some talking - lots of talking. In case you didn't get it yet, I'm Cupid. No, I'm not the way humans imagine me. And earth is not the way I imagined it. This mission changed everything.

Holly Garland on Santa's Lap [COMPLETE]
Once upon a time, I was your typical good girl, doing my job like a total elf star, no complaints. Even with the little "gift" I was born with (aka my disability), I handled life pretty well. But let me tell you, luck's never been my plus-one. What am I talking about? Oh, just my lovely name-and the Christmas curse that comes with it! Every year, without fail, while my family's out decking the halls, I'm over here getting snowed under with the worst disasters. So, yeah, all I want for Christmas is for this nightmare of a season to be over. But this year? Oh, I've really hit the Christmas tree topper. Ever since I plopped myself down on Santa's lap at my office party and made a special wish, it's been one yule disaster after another! And now, I'm stuck in this sleigh ride from hell with that red-suited nightmare, forced to follow him wherever he jingles. Sure, he might be a total angel under that fake beard-mysterious and all-but I'm not about to let myself get wrapped up like some Christmas present under the tree. My brain's still in one piece, thanks. So, seriously, sweet baby Jesus, how did a nice executive assistant like me end up sleighing through this wild holiday misadventure full of danger, romance, and all the holly jolly chaos of Christmas?!Complete
