Struck: The Actress & The Archer | ONC2025 by Reading_Mermaid08

*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.***

When a cupid is tasked with setting up the woman he has feelings for, he decides instead to sabotage her matches while he uncovers why the Fates are targeting her. ***** Supernatural forces have secretly decided human destiny for centuries. Both the Fates and inhuman criminal cartels have used cupids and their powers of manipulation to control love and desire. But Declan is a rarity: a full-blooded cupid who freelances for both sides. Gifted with an extraordinary ability to sense human desire, he wields his powers to match couples, break them up, and even drive people to madness. Love is his business, but he's seen how it can destroy lives and is determined not to fall himself. When Declan receives his next assignment, the target is the last person he ever expected: his sassy neighbor and laundry-room companion, Bree Logan--the one girl in the world that he secretly wants for himself. Declan doesn't want to set her up with the love of her life, but he knows if he turns down the job, someone else will. He decides on a third option: take the assignment and sabotage her matches.
