She stole Cupid's arrows. She stole his heart. And she also managed to start a war. 

The tale of love is a legend as old as time itself. And its all thanks to the cupids: divine, winged angels working at Aphrodite's office since the dawn of time. Their daily task? Track down the world's soul mates and shoot them with mythical arrows. But one cupid in particular finds that creating true love can be a lonely job, especially when he knows that cupid kind can never have soul mates of their own. Or so he was told. 

When Davin discovers that there's a girl out there destined to be his, he's willing to risk everything to find her. But once he shoots her with a mythical arrow, something is terribly wrong...she doesn't fall in love with him. 

Davin is soon swept into the world of The Arrow Thieves: human outlaws desperate for Cupid magic. But their motives for stealing aren't entirely what they seem, and neither are the words of Davin's own people.

Golden Arrow by KayJaf

Robin is just like any other teenage girl. She loves to run, hang with her friends, and is obsessed with her cell phone. Oh, and she's known by her city as The Hood, the mysterious figure that takes down those that are corrupt and wealthy with the help of her merry men - her three computer genius friends that are expert hackers. Her current target? Richard Sherwood, CEO of Sherwood Innovations. He has a net worth of multiple billions (exact amount unknown) and has been grooming his son to be the heir to his empire. Oh, and he happens to be involved in the death of Robin's parents and the disappearance of countless other innocents in the city. So, what's a girl to do? Stand back and watch a selfish, malevolent man take down the city with his bare hands? No. She's going to steal from the rich and give back to the poor, of course. But even though she has her secret weapon, Golden Arrow, and her tech savvy best friends, stealing from the most powerful man in the city from his Sherwood Tower office building is much easier said than done. *** This is my entry for the Once Upon Now, Target//Wattpad Contest.

Cupid's Match | Wattpad Books Edition by LEPalphreyman

He's mythologically hot, a little bit wicked, almost 100% immortal. And he'll hit you right in the heart . . . --- Lila Black doesn't believe in matchmaking, let alone soul mates. So why is she constantly being hassled by the Cupids Matchmaking Service? But this gilded, cherub-bedecked dating agency isn't exactly what it seems . . . and it's about to turn Lila's entire world upside down. It turns out that Cupids Matchmaking is the real deal. As in, it's run by actual cupids―who don't look at all like they do in the paintings―and they have a serious problem with Lila's "match." Because this guy shouldn't be in the system. He shouldn't have a match. And while he's irresistibly hot, he's also incredibly dangerous. Because Lila's true love match is Cupid. The original bad boy of love. And he wants her. Now Lila's once-normal teenaged world has exploded into a mythological nightmare overrun by crime-lord sirens, wrathful cupid hit men, magic arrows that cause no end of trouble, and a mischievous, not-so-angelic love god she can't seem to stop herself from falling for . . .

Love Arrows by Internationald4

When I tell you that Cupid's exist you probably imagine little babies with wings that shoot arrows at people, right? Well let me assure you that we do not have wings or arrows, and we definitely don't look like babies. We look like you except that we have been assigned by the elders the mission to spread love. My name is Will and I have just gotten my toughest case yet. I need to prove to a girl who is convinced that love doesn't exist that she's wrong and stop a heartbreaker that will do anything to break up the couples I put together. Otherwise being a cupid is pretty easy. We only have one rule and that's not to fall in love. I can do that. Right?
